2 Chronicles 27
1 Jotham was 25 years old when he became the king of Judah. He ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. His mother was Jerushah, the daughter of [the priest] Zadok.
Jotamu sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba, ó sì di ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mẹ́rìndínlógún. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ sì ni Jeruṣa ọmọbìnrin Sadoku.
2 Jotham did many things that pleased Yahweh like his father Uzziah did. He obeyed Yahweh and did things that are right. He did many things that his father Uzziah had done, but he did not burn incense in the temple, like his father had done. However, the people of Judah continued to sin against Yahweh.
Ó sì ṣe ohun tí ó tọ́ ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ Ussiah ti ṣe, ṣùgbọ́n kìkì wí pé kò wọ ilé Olúwa. Àwọn ènìyàn síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ wọ́n ń ṣe iṣẹ́ ibi wọn.
3 Jotham’s [workers] rebuilt the Upper Gate of the temple, and they did a lot of work to repair the wall near Ophel [Hill].
Jotamu sì kọ́ ẹnu-ọ̀nà gíga ilé Olúwa ó sì ṣe iṣẹ́ lórí odi ni pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ Ofeli.
4 They built towns in the hills of Judah, and they built forts and defense towers in the forests.
Ó sì kọ́ àwọn ìlú ní Juda òkè àti nínú igbó àti ilé ìṣọ́, ó mọ ilé odi.
5 During the time that Jotham was the king of Judah, his army attacked and defeated the army of the Ammon people-group. Then, every year during the next three years, he required the Anmon people-group to pay to him four tons of silver, 60,000 bushels of wheat, and 60,000 bushels of barley.
Jotamu sì ṣẹ́ ogun lórí ọba àwọn ará Ammoni ó sì borí wọn. Ní ọdún náà àwọn ará Ammoni wọ́n sì san fún ọgọ́rùn-ún tálẹ́ǹtì fàdákà àti ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá òsùwọ̀n alikama àti ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá barle. Àwọn ará Ammoni gbé e wá ní iye kan náà àti pẹ̀lú ní ọdún kejì àti ní ọdún kẹta.
6 Jotham faithfully obeyed Yahweh his God, and as a result he became a very powerful king.
Jotamu sì di alágbára nítorí ó rìn ní ọ̀nà tó tọ́ níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀.
7 A record of everything else that Jotham did during the time that he was the king, including the wars that his army fought, is written in the scroll called ‘[the History of] the Kings of Israel and Judah’.
Ìyókù iṣẹ́ ìjọba Jotamu, pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ogun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ohun mìíràn tí ó ṣe, ni a kọ sínú ìwé àwọn ọba Israẹli àti ti Juda.
8 After Jotham had ruled Judah for 16 years, he died when he was 41 years old.
Ó sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mẹ́rìndínlógún.
9 He was buried in Jerusalem, and his son Ahaz became the king [of Judah].
Jotamu sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba a rẹ̀ a sì sin ín ní ìlú Dafidi, Ahasi ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
