< 2 Chronicles 27 >
1 Jotamu sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba, ó sì di ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mẹ́rìndínlógún. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ sì ni Jeruṣa ọmọbìnrin Sadoku.
Jotham [is] a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jerushah daughter of Zadok.
2 Ó sì ṣe ohun tí ó tọ́ ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ Ussiah ti ṣe, ṣùgbọ́n kìkì wí pé kò wọ ilé Olúwa. Àwọn ènìyàn síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ wọ́n ń ṣe iṣẹ́ ibi wọn.
And he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, according to all that his father Uzziah did; only, he has not come into the temple of YHWH; and again the people are doing corruptly.
3 Jotamu sì kọ́ ẹnu-ọ̀nà gíga ilé Olúwa ó sì ṣe iṣẹ́ lórí odi ni pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ Ofeli.
He has built the Upper Gate of the house of YHWH, and in the wall of Ophel he has built abundantly;
4 Ó sì kọ́ àwọn ìlú ní Juda òkè àti nínú igbó àti ilé ìṣọ́, ó mọ ilé odi.
and he has built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and he has built palaces and towers in the forests.
5 Jotamu sì ṣẹ́ ogun lórí ọba àwọn ará Ammoni ó sì borí wọn. Ní ọdún náà àwọn ará Ammoni wọ́n sì san fún ọgọ́rùn-ún tálẹ́ǹtì fàdákà àti ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá òsùwọ̀n alikama àti ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá barle. Àwọn ará Ammoni gbé e wá ní iye kan náà àti pẹ̀lú ní ọdún kejì àti ní ọdún kẹta.
And he has fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevails over them, and the sons of Ammon give to him in that year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley; the sons of Ammon have returned this to him both in the second year and in the third.
6 Jotamu sì di alágbára nítorí ó rìn ní ọ̀nà tó tọ́ níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀.
And Jotham strengthens himself, for he has prepared his ways before his God YHWH.
7 Ìyókù iṣẹ́ ìjọba Jotamu, pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ogun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ohun mìíràn tí ó ṣe, ni a kọ sínú ìwé àwọn ọba Israẹli àti ti Juda.
And the rest of the matters of Jotham, and all his battles, and his ways, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Israel and Judah.
8 Ó sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mẹ́rìndínlógún.
He was a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem;
9 Jotamu sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba a rẹ̀ a sì sin ín ní ìlú Dafidi, Ahasi ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
and Jotham lies with his fathers, and they bury him in the City of David, and his son Ahaz reigns in his stead.
