< Ii Paralipomenon 27 >
1 Vigintiquinque annorum erat Ioatham cum regnare coepisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem: nomen matris eius Ierusa filia Sadoc.
A son of twenty and five years [is] Jotham in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned 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 doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Uzziah his father did; only, he hath not come in unto the temple of Jehovah; and again are the people doing corruptly.
3 Ipse aedificavit portam domus Domini excelsam, et in muro Ophel multa construxit.
He hath built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and in the wall of Ophel he hath built abundantly;
4 Urbes quoque aedificavit in montibus Iuda, et in saltibus castella, et turres.
and cities he hath built in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he hath built palaces and towers.
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 hath fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevaileth over them, and the sons of Ammon give to him in that year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat, and of barley ten thousand; this have the sons of Ammon returned 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 doth strengthen himself, for he hath prepared his ways before Jehovah his God.
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, lo, they are written on the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
8 Vigintiquinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem.
A son of twenty and five years was he in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem;
9 Dormivitque Ioatham cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in Civitate David: et regnavit Achaz filius eius pro eo.
and Jotham lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David, and reign doth Ahaz his son in his stead.
