2 Chronicles 27

1 Joathan was of fyue and twenti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede sixtene yeer in Jerusalem; the name of his modir was Jerusa, the douyter of Sadoch.

约坦登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王十六年，他母亲名叫耶路沙，是撒督的女儿。

2 He dide that, that was riytful bifor the Lord, bi alle thingis whiche Ozie, his fadir, hadde do; outakun that he entride not in to the temple of the Lord, and the puple trespasside yit.

约坦行耶和华眼中看为正的事，效法他父乌西雅一切所行的，只是不入耶和华的殿。百姓还行邪僻的事。

3 He bildide the hiy yate of the hous of the Lord, and he bildide manye thingis in the wal of Ophel;

约坦建立耶和华殿的上门，在俄斐勒城上多有建造，

4 also he bildide citees in the hillis of Juda, and he bildide castels and touris in forestis.

又在犹大山地建造城邑，在树林中建筑营寨和高楼。

5 He fauyt ayens the kyng of the sones of Amon, and ouercam hym; and the sones of Amon yauen to hym in that tyme an hundrid talentis of siluer, and ten thousynde choris of barli, and so many of wheete; the sones of Amon yauen these thingis to hym in the secounde and in the thridde yeer.

约坦与亚扪人的王打仗胜了他们，当年他们进贡银一百他连得，小麦一万歌珥，大麦一万歌珥；第二年、第三年也是这样。

6 And Joathan was maad strong, for he hadde dressid hise weies bifor `his Lord God.

约坦在耶和华—他 神面前行正道，以致日渐强盛。

7 Forsothe the residue of wordis of Joathan, and alle hise batels, and werkis, ben writun in the book of kyngis of Israel and of Juda.

约坦其余的事和一切争战，并他的行为，都写在以色列和犹大列王记上。

8 He was of fyue and twenti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede sixtene yeer in Jerusalem.

他登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王十六年。

9 And Joathan slepte with hise fadris, and thei birieden hym in the citee of Dauid; and Achaz, his sone, regnede for him.

约坦与他列祖同睡，葬在大卫城里。他儿子亚哈斯接续他作王。
