< II Oihanaalii 27 >
1 HE iwakaluakumamalima makahiki ko Iotama i kona wa i alii ai, a noho alii iho la ia i na makahiki he umikumamaono ma Ierusalema; a o ka inoa o kona makuwahine, o Ierusa, ke kaikamahine a Zadoka.
Jotham was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.
2 A hana pololei ia i na maka o Iehova e like me ka hana a pau a Uzia, a kona makua i hana'i: aka hoi, aole ia i komo i ka hale o Iehova. A hana hewa no nae na kanaka.
And he did what was right before the Lord, in accord with all that his father, Uzziah, had done, except that he did not enter into the temple of the Lord, and still the people were transgressing.
3 Ua kukulu ia i ka ipuka o ka hale o Iehova a kiekie, a maluna o ka pa o Opela, kukulu nui iho la ia.
He improved the high gate of the house of the Lord. And he built many things upon the wall of Ophel.
4 Ua kukulu ia i na kulanakauhale ma na mauna o Iuda, a ma ka waonahele kukulu ia i na pakaua, a me na halekiai.
Also, he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and fortresses and towers in the forests.
5 Ua kaua no hoi ia i ke alii o ka Amona, a lanakila maluna o lakou: a ua haawi mai ka poe mamo a Amona, i kela makahiki, i hookahi haneri talena kala, a me na pahu palaoa he umi tausani, a me na pahu bale he umi tausani. Pela i haawi mai ai ka poe mamo a Amona i ka makahiki elua, a me ke kolu.
He fought against the king of the sons of Ammon, and he defeated them. And at that time, the sons of Ammon gave to him one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cor of wheat, and the same number of cor of barley. These things the sons of Ammon offered to him in the second and third year.
6 A lilo iho la o Iotama i mea ikaika, no ka mea, ua hoomakaukau oia i kona aoao imua o Iehova kona Akua.
And Jotham was strengthened, because he had directed his way before the Lord his God.
7 A o ke koena o na hana a Iotama, a me kona kaua ana a pau, a me kona aoao, ua kakauia ma ka palapala no na'lii o Iseraela a me Iuda.
Now the rest of the words of Jotham, and all his battles and works, have been written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
8 He iwakaluakumamalima makahiki ona i kona wa i alii ai, a noho alii iho la ia i na makahiki he umikumamaono ma Ierusalema.
He was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem.
9 A hiamoe iho la o Iotama, me kona poe kupuna, a kanu lakou ia ia iloko o ke kulanakauhale o Davida; a noho alii iho la o Ahaza, kana keiki ma kona hakahaka.
And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David. And his son, Ahaz, reigned in his place.
