Ii Paralipomenon 27

1 viginti quinque annorum erat Ioatham cum regnare coepisset et sedecim annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Hierusa filia Sadoc

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 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 did that which was right in the sight of YHWH, according to all that his father Uzziah did: howbeit he entered not into the temple of YHWH. And the people did yet corruptly.

3 ipse aedificavit portam domus Domini Excelsam et in muro Ophel multa construxit

He built the high gate of the house of YHWH, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

4 urbes quoque aedificavit in montibus Iuda et in saltibus castella et turres

Moreover he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.

5 ipse pugnavit contra regem filiorum Ammon et vicit eos dederuntque ei filii Ammon in tempore illo centum talenta argenti et decem milia choros tritici ac totidem choros hordei haec ei praebuerunt filii Ammon in anno secundo et tertio

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 corroboratusque est Ioatham eo quod direxisset vias suas coram Domino Deo suo

So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before YHWH his Elohim.

7 reliqua autem sermonum Ioatham et omnes pugnae eius et opera scripta sunt in libro regum Israhel et Iuda

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 viginti quinque annorum erat cum regnare coepisset et sedecim annis regnavit in Hierusalem

He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and 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 slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
