2 Chronicles 27

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	BIBLES DES PEUPLES
1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jerusha, the daughter of Zadok.	1 Yotam avait 25 ans lorsqu’il monta sur le trône, il régna 16 ans à Jérusalem; sa mère était Yéroucha fille de Sadoq.
2 And he did what was right before the Lord, in accord with all that his father, Uzziah, had done, except that he did not enter into the temple of the Lord, and still the people were transgressing.	2 Il fit ce qui est juste au regard de Yahvé tout comme l’avait fait son père Ozias, et lui n’entra pas dans la Maison de Yahvé; le peuple cependant continuait de faire le mal.
3 He improved the high gate of the house of the Lord. And he built many things upon the wall of Ophel.	3 Il construisit la Porte Haute de la Maison de Yahvé et fit de nombreuses réparations au mur de l’Ophel.
4 Also, he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and fortresses and towers in the forests.	4 Il construisit des villes dans la montagne de Juda, des forteresses et des tours dans les régions boisées.
5 He fought against the king of the sons of Ammon, and he defeated them. And at that time, the sons of Ammon gave to him one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cor of wheat, and the same number of cor of barley. These things the sons of Ammon offered to him in the second and third year.	5 Il fit la guerre au roi des Ammonites et l’emporta sur lui. Les Ammonites lui donnèrent cette année-là 100 talents d’argent, 10 000 mesures de blé et 10 000 d’orge; les Ammonites lui en remirent encore autant la seconde et la troisième année.
6 And Jotham was strengthened, because he had directed his way before the Lord his God.	6 Yotam devint puissant car il prenait ses décisions sous le regard de Yahvé son Dieu.
7 Now the rest of the words of Jotham, and all his battles and works, have been written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.	7 Les reste des actes de Yotam, toutes ses guerres et ses travaux, cela est écrit dans le livre des rois d’Israël et de Juda.
8 He was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem.	8 Il avait 25 ans lorsqu’il monta sur le trône et il régna 16 ans à Jérusalem.
9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David. And his son, Ahaz, reigned in his place.	9 Yotam se coucha avec ses pères et on l’enterra dans la Cité de David. Son fils Akaz régna à sa place.
