< 2 Chronicles 27 >

1 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.
و یوتام بیست و پنج ساله بود که پادشاه شد و شانزده سال در اورشلیم سلطنت نمود و اسم مادرش یروشه دختر صادوق بود.۱
2 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.
وآنچه در نظر خداوند پسند بود، موافق هرآنچه پدرش عزیا کرده بود، به عمل آورد، اما به هیکل خداوند داخل نشد لیکن قوم هنوز فسادمی کردند.۲
3 He built the upper gate of the LORD’s house, and he built much on the wall of Ophel.
و او دروازه اعلای خانه خداوند را بنانمود و بر حصار عوفل عمارت بسیار ساخت.۳
4 Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built fortresses and towers.
وشهرها در کوهستان یهودا بنا نمود و قلعه‌ها وبرجها در جنگلها ساخت.۴
5 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.
و با پادشاه بنی عمون جنگ نموده، بر ایشان غالب آمد. پس بنی عمون در آن سال، صد وزنه نقره و ده هزار کر گندم و ده هزار کر جو به او دادند، و بنی عمون در سال دوم وسوم به همان مقدار به او دادند.۵
6 So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
پس یوتام زورآور گردید زیرا رفتار خود را به حضور یهوه خدای خویش راست ساخت.۶
7 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.
و بقیه وقایع یوتام و همه جنگهایش و رفتارش، اینک درتواریخ پادشاهان اسرائیل و یهودا مکتوب است.۷
8 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
و او بیست و پنج ساله بود که پادشاه شد وشانزده سال در اورشلیم سلطنت کرد.۸
9 Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in David’s city; and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.
پس یوتام با پدران خود خوابید و او را در شهر داود دفن کردند، و پسرش آحاز در جایش سلطنت نمود.۹
