< 2 Cronicas 27 >
1 Agtawen iti duapulo ket lima ni Jotam idi nangrugi isuna nga agturay; nagturay isuna iti sangapulo ket innem a tawen idiay Jerusalem. Jerusa ti nagan ti inana; a putot ni Zadok.
JOTHAM was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok.
2 Inaramid ni Jotam ti nalinteg iti imatang ni Yahweh, a kas iti amin a banag nga inaramid ti amana a ni Uzzias. Saanna met a pinilit ti simrek iti templo ni Yahweh. Ngem intultuloy latta dagiti tattao dagiti dakes nga aramidda.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Uzziah did: howbeit he entered not into the temple of the Lord. And the people did yet corruptly.
3 Impatakderna ti akin-ngato a ruangan ti balay ni Yahweh, ken adu ti tinarimaanna iti bakud iti turod ti Ofel.
He built the high gate of the house of the Lord, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.
4 Kasta met a nangibagon pay isuna kadagiti siudad idiay katurturodan a pagilian ti Juda, ken nangipatakder isuna kadagiti sarikedked ken kadagiti torre a pagwanawanan iti kabakiran.
Moreover he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
5 Nakigubat pay isuna iti ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon ket pinarmekna ida. Iti dayta met laeng a tawen, nangted kenkuana dagiti tattao ti Ammon iti sangagasut a talento a pirak, sangapulo a ribu a rukod a trigo, sangapulo a ribu a rukod a sebada. Kasta met laeng ti inted kenkuana dagiti tattao ti Ammon iti maikadua ken maikatlo a tawen.
He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon pay unto him, both the second year, and the third.
6 Nagbalin ngarud a nabileg ni Jotam gapu ta nagtulnog isuna a sipupudno kenni Yahweh a Diosna.
So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before the Lord his God.
7 Dagiti dadduma a banbanag maipapan kenni Jotam, dagiti pannakigubatna, ken dagiti aramidna, kitaenyo, naisurat dagitoy iti Ti Libro dagiti Ari ti Israel ken Juda.
Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
8 Duapulo ket lima ti tawenna idi nangrugi a nagturay; nagturay isuna iti sangapulo ket innem a tawen idiay Jerusalem.
He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
9 Pimmusay ni Jotam, ket intabonda isuna idiay siudad ni David. Ni Ahaz a putotna a lalaki, ti simmukat a kenkuana nga ari.
And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
