2 Chronicles 27
1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jerushah the daughter of Zadok.
E rua tekau ma rima nga tau o Iotama i tona kingitanga, a kotahi tekau ma ono nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama; a ko te ingoa hoki o tona whaea ko Ieruha, he tamahine na Haroko.
2 He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that his father Uzziah had done: however he did not enter into the LORD's temple. The people still did corruptly.
A he tika tana mahi ki ta Ihowa titiro, i rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai a Utia, tona papa. Otiia kihai ia i tomo ki te temepara o Ihowa. I mahi tonu te iwi i te he.
3 He built the Upper Gate of the house of the LORD, and he carried out considerable work on the wall of Ophel.
Nana i hanga te kuwaha o runga o te whare o Ihowa, a he nui te wahi i hanga e ia ki runga ki te taiepa i Opere.
4 Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built fortresses and towers.
I hanga ano e ia etahi pa ki nga maunga o Hura; hanga ana ano e ia etahi taumaihi, etahi pourewa ki nga ngahere.
5 He fought also with the king of the people of Ammon, and prevailed against them. The people of Ammon gave him the same year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. The people of Ammon gave that much to him in the second year also, and in the third.
I whawhai ano ia ki te kingi o nga tama a Amona, a taea ana ratou e ia. A homai ana e nga tama a Amona ki a ia i taua tau kotahi rau taranata hiriwa, tekau mano mehua witi, he parei hoki tekau nga mano. Ko nga utu enei i homai e nga tama a Amona ki a ia, i te rua ano o nga tau, a i te toru ano hoki.
6 So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
Heoi ka kaha haere a Iotama, no te mea i whakatikaia e ia ona huarahi i te aroaro o Ihowa, o tona Atua.
7 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, look, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
Na, ko era atu meatanga a Iotama, me ana whawhai katoa, me ona huarahi, nana, kua oti te tuhituhi ki te pukapuka o nga kingi o Iharaira raua ko Hura.
8 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
E rua tekau ma rima ona tau i tona kingitanga, a tekau ma ono nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama.
9 Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David: and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.
Na kua moe a Iotama ki ona matua, a tanumia iho ki te pa o Rawiri, a ko tana tama, ko Ahata, te kingi i muri i a ia.
