< 2 Chronicles 27 >
1 Jotham [is] a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jerushah daughter of Zadok.
Yotam dii ɔhene no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu enum. Ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia dunsia. Na ne maame a ɔyɛ Sadok babaa no din de Yerusa.
2 And he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that his father Uzziah did; only, he has not come into the temple of YHWH; and again the people are doing corruptly.
Ɔyɛɛ deɛ ɛsɔ Awurade ani sɛdeɛ nʼagya Usia yɛeɛ no. Yotam deɛ, wankɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu sɛdeɛ nʼagya yɛeɛ no. Nanso, ɔmanfoɔ no toaa wɔn nnebɔneyɛ so.
3 He has built the Upper Gate of the house of YHWH, and in the wall of Ophel he has built abundantly;
Yotam sane yɛɛ Atifi Ɛpono a ɛwɔ Awurade Asɔredan no ho, ɛnna ɔsane yɛɛ nnwuma bebree de siesiee ɔfasuo a ɛwɔ Ofel bepɔ so no.
4 and he has built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and he has built palaces and towers in the forests.
Ɔkyekyeree nkuro wɔ Yuda mmepɔ asase so, sisii aban ne abantenten wɔ mmeammea a wɔadua nnua.
5 And he has fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevails over them, and the sons of Ammon give to him in that year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley; the sons of Ammon have returned this to him both in the second year and in the third.
Yotam tuu Amonfoɔ so sa, dii wɔn so nkonim. Mfeɛ mmiɛnsa a ɛdi ɛkan no deɛ, ɔgyee wɔn apeatoɔ a ɛyɛ dwetɛ tɔno 3.4, ayuo susukora ɔpeduonum ne atokoɔ susukora ɔpeduonum.
6 And Jotham strengthens himself, for he has prepared his ways before his God YHWH.
Ɔhene Yotam nyaa tumi kɛseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔde ahwɛyie yɛɛ ɔsetie maa Awurade, ne Onyankopɔn.
7 And the rest of the matters of Jotham, and all his battles, and his ways, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Israel and Judah.
Yotam ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ a nʼakodie ne ne nneyɛeɛ ahodoɔ ka ho no, wɔatwerɛ agu Israel ahemfo ne Yuda ahemfo nwoma mu.
8 He was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem;
Ɔdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduonu enum, na ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Yerusalem mfirinhyia dunsia.
9 and Jotham lies with his fathers, and they bury him in the City of David, and his son Ahaz reigns in his stead.
Yotam wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no Dawid kurom na ne babarima Ahas, na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
