UJothamu wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu esiba yinkosi; wasebusa iminyaka elitshumi lesithupha eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguJerusha, indodakazi kaZadoki.
2 Hagi Jotamu'a, ko'ma nefa Usia'ma hu'neaza huno Ra Anumzamofo avurera fatgo avu'ava hu'neanagi, Ra Anumzamofo mono nompina uofre'ne. Hianagi vea kevumo'za kumi avu'avara hu vava hu'za vu'naze.
Wasesenza okuqondileyo emehlweni eNkosi njengokwenza konke kukaUziya uyise; kodwa kangenanga ethempelini leNkosi; labantu babelokhu besenza ngokonakala.
3 Hagi mono nomofo kuma kafanku'ma Anagamu Kaziga Kafane hu'zama nehaza kafana Jotamu'a eri so'e nehuno, Ofeli agona kazigama me'nea kuma vihua rama'a eri'za ete erino eri so'e hu'ne.
Yena wakha isango eliphezulu lendlu yeNkosi, wakha okunengi emdulini weOfeli.
4 Hagi Juda agona kokampina rama'a rankumatmi negino, zafama me'nea Juda agonaramimpina mani'ne'za ha' vaheku'ma kesaza zaza nontamine, bihuraminena trohuntetere hu'ne.
Futhi wakha imizi entabeni zakoJuda, lemaguswini wakha izinqaba lemiphotshongo.
5 Hagi Jotamu'a kinima mani'nea knafina Amoni vahera ha' ome huzmanteno hara huzmagatere'ne. Hagi e'ina'ma higeno'a, Amoni vahe'mo'za 3'a kafufi Jotamuna takisima ami'nazana, kna'amo'a 4 tani (3,400 kilo) hu'nea silva zagogi, 480 tani hu'nea witigi, 480 tani (1,820 kilo lita) hu'nea baligi hu'za mago mago kafurera eri'za eme amitere hu'naze.
Yena wesesilwa lenkosi yabantwana bakoAmoni, wabanqoba; abantwana bakoAmoni basebemnika ngalowomnyaka amathalenta esiliva alikhulu, lamakhori engqoloyi azinkulungwane ezilitshumi, lezinkulungwane ezilitshumi zebhali. Lokhu abantwana bakoAmoni bakubuyisela kuye, langomnyaka wesibili langowesithathu.
6 E'ina hazageno, Jotamu'a hankvenentake kini efore hu'ne. Na'ankure agra maka zama hifina Ra Anumzana Anumzama'amofona amagera antefatgo hu'ne.
Ngokunjalo uJothamu waziqinisa, ngoba walungisa izindlela zakhe phambi kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe.
7 Hagi Jotamu'ma kinima mani'neno hu'nea zantmimofo agenkene, ha'ma hu'nea zamofo agenke'anena Israeli kini vahetamine Juda kini vahe'tmimofo zmagenkema krenentaza avontafepi krente'naze.
Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaJothamu, lazo zonke izimpi zakhe, lezindlela zakhe, khangela, zibhaliwe egwalweni lwamakhosi akoIsrayeli lawakoJuda.
8 Hagi Jotamu'a 25'a kafu hu'neno, kinia efore huno 16ni'a kafu Jerusalemi kumatera kinia mani'ne.
Wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanhlanu esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka elitshumi lesithupha eJerusalema.
9 Ana huteno Jotamu'ma frige'za, Deviti rankumapi ome asentazageno, nemofo Ahasi agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.
UJothamu waselala laboyise, basebemngcwabela emzini kaDavida; uAhazi indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
