< 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.
و یوتام بیست و پنج ساله بود که پادشاه شد و شانزده سال در اورشلیم سلطنت نمود و اسم مادرش یروشه دختر صادوق بود.۱
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.
وآنچه در نظر خداوند پسند بود، موافق هرآنچه پدرش عزیا کرده بود، به عمل آورد، اما به هیکل خداوند داخل نشد لیکن قوم هنوز فسادمی کردند.۲
3 He built the high gate of the house of the LORD, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.
و او دروازه اعلای خانه خداوند را بنانمود و بر حصار عوفل عمارت بسیار ساخت.۳
4 Moreover, he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
وشهرها در کوهستان یهودا بنا نمود و قلعه‌ها وبرجها در جنگلها ساخت.۴
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.
و با پادشاه بنی عمون جنگ نموده، بر ایشان غالب آمد. پس بنی عمون در آن سال، صد وزنه نقره و ده هزار کر گندم و ده هزار کر جو به او دادند، و بنی عمون در سال دوم وسوم به همان مقدار به او دادند.۵
6 So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before the LORD his God.
پس یوتام زورآور گردید زیرا رفتار خود را به حضور یهوه خدای خویش راست ساخت.۶
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.
و بقیه وقایع یوتام و همه جنگهایش و رفتارش، اینک درتواریخ پادشاهان اسرائیل و یهودا مکتوب است.۷
8 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
و او بیست و پنج ساله بود که پادشاه شد وشانزده سال در اورشلیم سلطنت کرد.۸
9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
پس یوتام با پدران خود خوابید و او را در شهر داود دفن کردند، و پسرش آحاز در جایش سلطنت نمود.۹
