< 2 Chronicles 27 >
1 A son of twenty and five years [is] Jotham in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jerushah daughter of Zadok.
Yosamu yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu etaano, bwe yalya obwakabaka, n’afugira mu Yerusaalemi emyaka kkumi na mukaaga. Nnyina ye yali Yerusa muwala wa Zadooki.
2 And he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Uzziah his father did; only, he hath not come in unto the temple of Jehovah; and again are the people doing corruptly.
Newaakubadde ng’abantu beeyongera okukola ebitali bya butuukirivu, Yosamu yakola ebirungi mu maaso ga Mukama, nga kitaawe Uzziya bwe yakola; naye obutafaanana nga kitaawe bwe yakola, teyayingira mu yeekaalu ya Mukama.
3 He hath built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and in the wall of Ophel he hath built abundantly;
N’addaabiriza Omulyango ogw’Ekyengulu ogwa yeekaalu ya Mukama, ate era n’akola omulimu munene ogw’okuddaabiriza bbugwe wa Oferi.
4 and cities he hath built in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he hath built palaces and towers.
N’azimba n’ebibuga mu nsozi za Yuda, ate mu bibira n’azimbamu ebigo n’asimbamu n’eminaala.
5 And he hath fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevaileth over them, and the sons of Ammon give to him in that year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat, and of barley ten thousand; this have the sons of Ammon returned to him both in the second year, and in the third.
Yosamu n’alwana ne kabaka w’Abamoni n’amuwangula, era omwaka ogwo Abamoni ne bamuwa ttani ssatu eza ffeeza ne desimoolo nnya, n’ebigero by’eŋŋaano obukadde bubiri mu emitwalo amakumi abiri, n’ebigero bya sayiri obukadde bubiri mu emitwalo amakumi abiri. Abamoni ne bamuleeteranga ebintu byebimu mu bigero byebimu mu mwaka ogwokubiri ne mu mwaka ogwokusatu.
6 And Jotham doth strengthen himself, for he hath prepared his ways before Jehovah his God.
Yosamu n’aba n’obuyinza bungi kubanga yatambuliranga mu makubo ga Mukama Katonda we.
7 And the rest of the matters of Jotham, and all his battles, and his ways, lo, they are written on the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Yosamu, entalo ze yalwana, ne bye yakola, byawandiikibwa mu kitabo kya Bassekabaka ba Isirayiri ne Yuda.
8 A son of twenty and five years was he in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem;
Yosamu yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu etaano bwe yalya obwakabaka, era n’afugira emyaka kkumi na mukaaga mu Yerusaalemi.
9 and Jotham lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David, and reign doth Ahaz his son in his stead.
Ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe, n’aziikibwa mu Kibuga kya Dawudi; Akazi mutabani we n’amusikira.
