2 Chronicles 27

1 [was] a son of Twenty and five year[s] Jotham when became king he and six-teen year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Jerusha [the] daughter of Zadok.

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.

2 And he did the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh according to all that he had done Uzziah father his only not he went into [the] temple of Yahweh and yet the people [were] behaving corruptly.

And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his father Uzziah had done. However he did not enter into the temple of Jehovah. And the people still did corruptly.

3 He he built [the] gate of [the] house of Yahweh upper and on [the] wall of Ophel he built to abundance.

He built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

4 And cities he built in [the] hill country of Judah and in the wooded areas he built fortresses and towers.

Moreover he built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.

5 And he he waged war with [the] king of [the] people of Ammon and he prevailed over them and they gave to him [the] people of Ammon in the year that one hundred talent[s] of silver and ten thousand cors wheat and barley ten thousand this they brought to him [the] people of (Ammon. *LBH(a)*) And in the year second and third.

Also he fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevailed against them. And the sons of Ammon gave him the same year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the sons of Ammon render to him, in the second year also, and in the third.

6 And he strengthened himself Jotham for he had directed ways his before Yahweh God his.

So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before Jehovah his God.

7 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Jotham and all wars his and ways his there they [are] written on [the] scroll of [the] kings of Israel and Judah.

Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.

8 A son of twenty and five year[s] he was when became king he and six-teen year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem.

He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.

9 And he lay down Jotham with ancestors his and people buried him in [the] city of David and he became king Ahaz son his in place of him.

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