2 Tantara 27
1 Dimy amby roa-polo taona Jotama, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary enina ambin’ ny folo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Jerosa, zanakavavin’ i Zadoka.
Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jerushah the daughter of Zadok.
2 Ary nanao izay mahitsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy, tahaka izay nataon’ i Ozia rainy; nefa kosa tsy mba niditra tao amin’ ny tempolin’ i Jehovah izy. Ary ny vahoaka rehetra mbola nanao ratsy ihany.
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that his father Uzziah had done. However he didn’t enter into the LORD’s temple. The people still acted corruptly.
3 Izy no nanamboatra ny vavahady ambony amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah sady nandrafitra be tamin’ ny mandan’ i Ofela koa.
He built the upper gate of the LORD’s house, and he built much on the wall of Ophel.
4 Ary nanao tanàna teny amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Joda sy trano fiarovana ary tilikambo tany an’ ala koa izy.
Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built fortresses and towers.
5 Ary niady tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny taranak’ i Amona koa izy ka naharesy azy. Ary tamin’ izany taona izany ny taranak’ i Amona nanome azy talenta volafotsy zato ary vary tritika sy vary hordea iray alina kora avy; izany no naloan’ ny taranak’ i Amona ho azy tamin’ ny-taona faharoa sy fahatelo koa.
He also fought with the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against them. The children of Ammon gave him the same year one hundred talents of silver, ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand cors of barley. The children of Ammon also gave that much to him in the second year, and in the third.
6 Ary dia nitombo hery Jotama, satria nizotra tsara teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny izy.
So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
7 Ary ny tantaran’ i Jotama sisa mbamin’ ny adiny rehetra sy ny fanaony, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely sy ny Joda izany.
Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars and his ways, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
8 Dimy amby roa-polo taona izy, fony vao nanjaka, ary enina ambin’ ny folo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema.
He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
9 Ary Jotama lasa nodi-mandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina tany an-Tanànan’ i Davida izy; ary Ahaza zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in David’s city; and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.
