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 te gen laj venn-senkan lè l te devni wa a, e li te renye sèzan Jérusalem. Non manman li te Jeruscha, fis a Tsadok la.
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.
Li te fè sa ki dwat nan zye SENYÈ a, selon tout sa ke papa Ozias te konn fè. Men li pa t antre nan tanp SENYÈ a. E pèp la te kontinye aji konwonpi.
3 He built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh, and on the hill of Ophel he built much.
Li te bati pòtay pi wo lakay SENYÈ a, e li te bati anpil menm sou miray Ophel la.
4 Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
Anplis, li te bati vil nan peyi kolin a Juda yo, e li te bati fò avèk fòterès sou ti kolin ki te bwaze yo.
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.
Li te goumen osi avèk wa Amonit yo, e li te genyen yo jiskaske Amonit yo te ba li nan menm ane sa a, san talan an ajan, di-mil barik ble ak di-mil barik lòj. Amonit yo te peye li menm fòs sa a nan dezyèm ak twazyèm ane a.
6 So Jotham became powerful because he walked firmly before Yahweh his God.
Konsa, Jotham te vin trè pwisan akoz li te fè afè li an lòd devan SENYÈ a, Bondye li a.
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.
Alò, tout lòt zèv a Jotham yo, menm tout gè li yo avèk zèv li yo, gade byen, yo ekri nan Liv A Wa Israël Avèk Juda Yo.
8 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem.
Li te gen venn-senkan lè l te vin wa e li te renye sèzan Jérusalem.
9 Jotham slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in the city of David. Ahaz, his son, became king in his place.
Konsa, Jotham te dòmi avèk papa zansèt li yo, e yo te antere li lavil David. Achaz, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
