2 Chronicles 27

1 twenty-five years old, was Jotham when he began to reign, and, sixteen years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Jerushah, daughter of Zadok.

Jotam gbara iri afọ abụọ na ise mgbe e mere ya eze. Ọ chịrị afọ iri na isii na Jerusalem. Nne ya bụ Jerusha nwa Zadọk.

2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that Uzziah his father had done, only he entered not into the temple of Yahweh, —though still were the people acting corruptly.

O mere ihe ziri ezi nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka nna ya Ụzaya mere, ma o meghị dịka nna ya, ọ banyeghị nʼime ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị. Ma ndị mmadụ gara nʼihu na-eme omume ha rụrụ arụ.

3 He, built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh, -and, on the wall of Ophel, built he extensively.

Jotam wugharịrị Ọnụ Ụzọ Ama nke dị Elu nke ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, rụọkwa ọtụtụ ọrụ nʼelu mgbidi nke ugwu Ofel.

4 Cities also, built he, in the hill country of Judah, —and, in the thick woods, built he fortresses and towers.

O wuru ọtụtụ obodo nʼala ugwu ugwu Juda, wuokwa ọtụtụ ebe e wusiri ike na ụlọ elu nche nʼoke ọhịa.

5 He, also made war against the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevailed against them, and the sons of Ammon gave him, during that year, a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and, of barley, ten thousand, —this, did the sons of Ammon render him, both in the second year, and the third.

Jotam busoro eze ndị Amọn agha, meriekwa ha. Nʼafọ ahụ, ndị Amọn bunyere ya narị talenti ọlaọcha, na bushel ọka iri puku na puku abụọ, na bushel ọka balị iri puku na puku abụọ.

6 So Jotham strengthened himself, —for he fixed his ways before Yahweh his God.

Jotam ghọrọ eze dị ike nʼihi na ọ kpachara anya debe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya.

7 But, the rest of the story of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo! there they are written in the book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.

Ihe ndị ọzọ niile nʼoge ọchịchị Jotam, tinyere ihe gbasara agha niile ọ lụrụ, na ihe ndị ọzọ niile nke o mere, e deturu ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ndị eze Izrel na Juda.

8 Twenty-five years old, was he when he began to reign, —and, sixteen years, reigned he in Jerusalem.

Ọ gbara iri afọ abụọ na ise mgbe e mere ya eze. Ọ chịrị afọ iri na isii na Jerusalem.

9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him, in the city of David, —and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.

Jotam sooro ndị nna nna ya dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼobodo Devid. Ehaz nwa ya nwoke ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
