2 Chronicles 27

1 Jotham [was] twenty and five years old when he began to reign and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also [was] Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok.

١ كَانَ يُوثَامُ ٱبْنَ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ سِتَّ عَشَرَةَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ يَرُوشَةُ بِنْتُ صَادُوقَ.

2 And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Uzziah did: yet, he entered not into the temple of the LORD. And the people did yet corruptly.

٢ وَعَمِلَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا عَمِلَ عُزِّيَّا أَبُوهُ، إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ هَيْكَلَ ٱلرَّبِّ. وَكَانَ ٱلشَّعْبُ يُفْسِدُونَ بَعْدُ.

3 He built the high gate of the house of the LORD, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

٣ هُوَ بَنَى ٱلْبَابَ ٱلْأَعْلَى لِبَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَبَنَى كَثِيرًا عَلَى سُورِ ٱلْأَكَمَةِ.

4 Moreover, he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.

٤ وَبَنَى مُدُنًا فِي جَبَلِ يَهُوذَا، وَبَنَى فِي ٱلْغَابَاتِ قِلَعًا وَأَبْرَاجًا.

5 He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children 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 children of Ammon pay to him, both the second year, and the third.

٥ وَهُوَ حَارَبَ مَلِكَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَقَوِيَ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَأَعْطَاهُ بَنُو عَمُّونَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّنَةِ مِئَةَ وَزْنَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَعَشَرَةَ آلَافِ كُرِّ قَمْحٍ، وَعَشَرَةَ آلَافٍ مِنَ ٱلشَّعِيرِ. هَذَا مَا أَدَّاهُ لَهُ بَنُو عَمُّونَ، وَكَذَلِكَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ وَٱلثَّالِثَةِ.

6 So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before the LORD his God.

٦ وَتَشَدَّدَ يُوثَامُ لِأَنَّهُ هَيَّأَ طُرُقَهُ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ.

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

٧ وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ يُوثَامَ وَكُلُّ حُرُوبِهِ وَطُرُقِهِ، هَاهِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا.

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

٨ كَانَ ٱبْنَ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ سِتَّ عَشَرَةَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ.

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

٩ ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ يُوثَامُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، وَمَلَكَ آحَازُ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ.
