< 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 began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jerushah 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.
He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that his father Uzziah had done: however he did not enter into the LORD's temple. The people still did corruptly.
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 built the Upper Gate of the house of the LORD, and he carried out considerable work on 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.
Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built fortresses and towers.
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 also with the king of the people of Ammon, and prevailed against them. The people of Ammon gave him the same year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. The people of Ammon gave that much to him in the second year also, and in the third.
6 A lilo iho la o Iotama i mea ikaika, no ka mea, ua hoomakaukau oia i kona aoao imua o Iehova kona Akua.
So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways 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 acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, look, they are 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 five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned 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.
Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David: and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.
