Вторая книга Паралипоменон 27
1 Сын двадесяти и пяти лет бяше Иоафам, егда царствовати нача, и шестьнадесять лет царствова во Иерусалиме. Имя же матере его Иеруса, дщи Садокова.
Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerushah daughter of Zadok.
2 И сотвори правое пред Господем по всем, яже сотвори Озиа отец его, обаче не вниде в церковь Господню, и еще людие согрешаху.
And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father Uzziah had done. In addition, he did not enter the temple of the LORD. But the people still behaved corruptly.
3 Той созда врата дому Господня высокая, и на стене Офли созда многа:
Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the house of the LORD, and he worked extensively on the wall at the hill of Ophel.
4 и грады созда на горах Иудиных, и в дубравех дворы и столпы.
He also built cities in the hill country of Judah and fortresses and towers in the forests.
5 И той ополчися противу царя сынов Аммоних и одоле его: и даяху ему сынове Аммони на всякое лето по сту талант сребра и десять тысящ кор (мер) пшеницы и десять тысящ ячменя: сия ему приношаше царь сынов Аммоних на лето, в первое лето и второе и третие.
Jotham waged war against the king of the Ammonites and defeated them, and that year they gave him a hundred talents of silver, ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand cors of barley. They paid him the same in the second and third years.
6 И укрепися Иоафам, яко уготова пути своя пред Господем Богом своим.
So Jotham grew powerful because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
7 Прочая же словеса Иоафамля, и брань, и деяния его, се, писана в книзе царей Иудиных и Израилевых.
As for the rest of the acts of Jotham, along with all his wars and his ways, they are indeed written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.
8 Сын двадесяти и пяти лет бяше, егда царствовати нача, и шестьнадесять лет царствова во Иерусалиме.
He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years.
9 Успе же Иоафам со отцы своими и погребен бысть во граде Давидове. И воцарися Ахаз сын его вместо его.
And Jotham rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David. And his son Ahaz reigned in his place.
