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.

Yotam xɔ ƒe blaeve vɔ atɔ̃ esi wòzu fia eye wòɖu fia ƒe wuiade le Yerusalem. Dadae nye Yerusa, Zadok ƒe vinyɔnu.

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.

Yotam Ewɔ nu dzɔdzɔe le Yehowa ŋkume, abe ale si fofoa, Uzia, wɔ ene. Ke eya mege ɖe gbedoxɔ la me abe fofoa ene o; ke eƒe amewo ya yi nu gbegblẽ wɔwɔ dzi.

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

Yotam tu Dzigbegbo ɖe gbedoxɔ la ŋu eye wògbugbɔ gli siwo le Ofel toa dzi, afi si gbedoxɔ la le la ƒe akpa gã aɖe tu.

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

Etso duwo ɖe Yuda ƒe tonyigba la dzi eye wòtu mɔwo kple xɔ kɔkɔwo ɖe avewo me le toawo dzi.

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.

Yotam wɔ aʋa kple Amonitɔwo ƒe fia eye wòɖu edzi. Le ƒe ma me la, Amonitɔwo tsɔ klosalo si ƒe kpekpeme nye kilogram akpe etɔ̃ alafa ene, lu tɔn akpe eve alafa eve kple ƒo tɔn akpe eve alafa eve vɛ nɛ. Amonitɔwo tsɔ nu siawo ke vɛ nɛ le ƒe evelia kple etɔ̃lia siaa me.

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

Fia Yotam kpɔ ŋusẽ ŋutɔ elabena ekpɔ egbɔ be yezɔ nyuie le Yehowa, eƒe Mawu la ƒe mɔ dzi ɣe sia ɣi.

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.

Woŋlɔ Yotam ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa, eƒe aʋawɔwɔwo kple eƒe wɔna bubuwo ɖe Israel fiawo kple Yuda fiawo ƒe Ŋutinyawo me.

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

Le ŋutinya la nu la, Yotam xɔ ƒe blaeve vɔ atɔ̃ esi wòzu fia eye wòɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe wuiade.

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

Esi wòku la, woɖii ɖe David ƒe du la me eye via Ahaz ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
