< 2 Chronicles 27 >
1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jerushah; she was the daughter of Zadok.
Jotham teh siangpahrang a tawk navah, kum 25 touh a pha. Jerusalem vah kum 16 touh a bawi. A manu min teh Jerusha, Zadok e canu doeh.
2 He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, following the example of his father, Uzziah, in everything. He also refrained from going into the temple of Yahweh. But the people were still behaving in evil ways.
A na pa Uzziah ni a sak e hno a sak van teh, BAWIPA e mithmu vah hawinae ouk a sak. BAWIPA e im dawk teh kâen hoeh. Hatei khocanaw ni teh thoenae a sak pouh awh rah.
3 He built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh, and on the hill of Ophel he built much.
BAWIPA im dawk lathueng lae longkha a sak. Hahoi Ophel rapan thung vah im moikapap a sak.
4 Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
Judah ram monrui dawk khopui moikapap hoi ratu dawk im kalennaw hoi imrasangnaw a sak.
5 He fought also with the king of the people of Ammon and defeated them. In that same year, the people of Ammon gave him one hundred talents of silver, ten thousand measures of wheat, ten thousand measures of barley. The people of Ammon gave him the same in the second and third years.
Ammonnaw e siangpahrang a tuk teh a tâ. Hahoi Ammonnaw ni hote kum dawk ngun tangka talen 100 touh hoi cakang tangthung 10, 000 touh hoi, catun tangthung 10, 000 touh a poe awh. Hottelah Ammonnaw ni kum pahni hoi kum pâthum nah hai a poe awh.
6 So Jotham became powerful because he walked firmly before Yahweh his God.
Jotham ni BAWIPA Cathut hmalah, lamthung kahawicalah a pouk dawkvah a thao.
7 As for the other matters concerning Jotham, all his wars, and his ways, see, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
Hottelah Jotham tawksaknae dawk e kaawm rae pueng hoi taran a tuknae naw pueng hoi khosaknae naw pueng teh, khenhaw! Isarel hoi Judah siangpahrangnaw e kong thutnae dawkvah thut lah ao.
8 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem.
Siangpahrang a tawk navah, kum 25 touh a pha teh, Jerusalem vah kum 16 touh a bawi.
9 Jotham slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in the city of David. Ahaz, his son, became king in his place.
Jotham teh mintoenaw koe a i teh Devit khopui dawk a pakawp awh. Hahoi a capa Ahaz ni a yueng lah a bawi.
