2 Chronicles 27
1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jerushah the daughter of Zadok.
Jotham tinha vinte e cinco anos de idade quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezesseis anos em Jerusalém. O nome de sua mãe era Jerushah, a filha de Zadok.
2 He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that his father Uzziah had done. However he didn’t enter into the LORD’s temple. The people still acted corruptly.
Ele fez o que era certo aos olhos de Javé, de acordo com tudo o que seu pai Uzziah havia feito. Entretanto, ele não entrou no templo de Iavé. O povo ainda agiu de forma corrupta.
3 He built the upper gate of the LORD’s house, and he built much on the wall of Ophel.
Ele construiu o portão superior da casa de Iavé, e construiu muito sobre a parede de Ofel.
4 Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built fortresses and towers.
Moreover ele construiu cidades na região montanhosa de Judá, e nas florestas ele construiu fortalezas e torres.
5 He also fought with the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against them. The children of Ammon gave him the same year one hundred talents of silver, ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand cors of barley. The children of Ammon also gave that much to him in the second year, and in the third.
Ele também lutou com o rei dos filhos de Amon, e prevaleceu contra eles. Os filhos de Amon lhe deram no mesmo ano cem talentos de prata, dez mil coros de trigo e dez mil coros de cevada. Os filhos de Ammon também lhe deram tanto no segundo ano, e no terceiro.
6 So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
Então Jotham tornou-se poderoso, porque ordenou seus caminhos diante de Yahweh seu Deus.
7 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars and his ways, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
Agora o resto dos atos de Jotão, e todas as suas guerras e seus caminhos, eis que estão escritos no livro dos reis de Israel e Judá.
8 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
Ele tinha vinte e cinco anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezesseis anos em Jerusalém.
9 Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in David’s city; and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.
Jotham dormiu com seus pais, e o enterraram na cidade de Davi; e Acaz seu filho reinou em seu lugar.
