Ii Paralipomenon 27

1 Vigintiquinque annorum erat Ioatham cum regnare coepisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem: nomen matris eius Ierusa filia Sadoc.

Jotham [is] a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jerushah daughter of Zadok.

2 Fecitque quod rectum erat coram Domino iuxta omnia quae fecerat Ozias pater suus, excepto quod non est ingressus templum Domini, et adhuc populus delinquebat.

And he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that his father Uzziah did; only, he has not come into the temple of YHWH; and again the people are doing corruptly.

3 Ipse aedificavit portam domus Domini excelsam, et in muro Ophel multa construxit.

He has built the Upper Gate of the house of YHWH, and in the wall of Ophel he has built abundantly;

4 Urbes quoque aedificavit in montibus Iuda, et in saltibus castella, et turres.

and he has built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and he has built palaces and towers in the forests.

5 Ipse pugnavit contra regem filiorum Ammon, et vicit eos, dederuntque ei filii Ammon in tempore illo centum talenta argenti, et decem millia coros tritici, ac totidem coros hordei: haec ei praebuerunt filii Ammon in anno secundo et tertio.

And he has fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevails over them, and the sons of Ammon give to him in that year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley; the sons of Ammon have returned this to him both in the second year and in the third.

6 Corroboratusque est Ioatham eo quod direxisset vias suas coram Domino Deo suo.

And Jotham strengthens himself, for he has prepared his ways before his God YHWH.

7 Reliqua autem sermonum Ioatham, et omnes pugnae eius, et opera, scripta sunt in Libro regum Israel et Iuda.

And the rest of the matters of Jotham, and all his battles, and his ways, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Israel and Judah.

8 Vigintiquinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem.

He was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem;

9 Dormivitque Ioatham cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in Civitate David: et regnavit Achaz filius eius pro eo.

and Jotham lies with his fathers, and they bury him in the City of David, and his son Ahaz reigns in his stead.
