1 योताम राजगद्दी आरोहण गर्दा पच्‍चिस वर्षका थिए; तिनले यरूशलेममा सोह्र वर्ष राज्‍य गरे । तिनकी आमाको यरूशा थियो; तिनी नाउँ सादोककी छोरी थिइन् ।
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 हरेक कुरामा आफ्ना पिता उज्‍जियाहको उदाहरणको अनुसरण गरेर तिनले परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे असल थियो सो गरे । परमप्रभुको मन्‍दिरभित्र प्रवेश गर्नबाट तिनी अलग बसे । तर मानिसहरू भने अझै पनि आफ्‍ना दुष्‍ट चालमा लागिरहेका थिए ।
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 तिनले परमप्रभुका मन्‍दिरको माथिल्‍लो ढोकाको र्निर्माण गरे, र ओपेल डाँडामा तिनले धेरै निर्माण गरे ।
He hath built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and in the wall of Ophel he hath built abundantly;
4 यसको साथै तिनले यहूदाको पहाडी देशमा सहरहरू बनाए, र वनमा किल्‍ला र धरहराहरू बनाए ।
and cities he hath built in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he hath built palaces and towers.
5 अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूका राजासँग पनि तिनले युद्ध गरे र उनलाई परास्‍त गरे । त्‍यसै वर्ष अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूले तिनलाई साढे तिन टन चाँदी, पच्‍चिस हजार मुरी गहूँ र पच्‍चिस हजार मुरी जौ दिए । अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरूले दोस्रो र तेस्रो वर्षमा पनि त्‍यसरी नै तिनलाई दिए ।
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 यसरी परमप्रभु आफ्‍ना परमेश्‍वरको सामुन्‍ने दृढ भएर हिंडेका हुनाले योताम शक्तिशाली भए ।
And Jotham doth strengthen himself, for he hath prepared his ways before Jehovah his God.
7 योतामको बारेमा अन्य कुराहरू, तिनका सबै युद्ध र तिनका सबै चाल, इस्राएल र यहूदाका राजाहरूको पुस्‍तकमा लेखिएका छन्‌ ।
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 तिनी राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी पच्‍चिस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा सोह्र वर्ष राज्‍य गरे ।
A son of twenty and five years was he in his reigning, and sixteen years he hath reigned in Jerusalem;
9 योताम आफ्‍ना पुर्खाहरूसित सुते, र तिनीहरूले उनलाई दाऊदको सहरमा गाडे । तिनीपछि तिनका छोरा आहाज तिनको ठाउँमा राजा भए ।
and Jotham lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David, and reign doth Ahaz his son in his stead.
