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 when he became king, and he reigned in for 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.
He did what was right in the Lord's sight as his father Uzziah had done, and he did not enter the Lord's Temple as his father had. But the people still acted corruptly.
3 Той созда врата дому Господня высокая, и на стене Офли созда многа:
Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the Lord's Temple, and did extensive building work on the wall at Ophel.
4 и грады созда на горах Иудиных, и в дубравех дворы и столпы.
He built towns in the hill country of Judah, and fortresses and towers in the mountains and 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 fought with the king of the Ammonites and defeated them. The Ammonites gave him every year for three years one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat and ten thousand of barley.
6 И укрепися Иоафам, яко уготова пути своя пред Господем Богом своим.
Jotham grew powerful because he made sure what he did followed the ways of the Lord his God.
7 Прочая же словеса Иоафамля, и брань, и деяния его, се, писана в книзе царей Иудиных и Израилевых.
The rest of what Jotham did, his wars and other events, were 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 when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for sixteen years.
9 Успе же Иоафам со отцы своими и погребен бысть во граде Давидове. И воцарися Ахаз сын его вместо его.
Jotham died and was buried in the City of David. His son Ahaz took over as king.
