Paralipomenon II 27

NOVA VULGATA	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
1 Viginti quinque annorum erat Ioatham, cum regnare coepisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem. Nomen matris eius Ierusa filia Sadoc.	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.
2 Fecitque, quod rectum erat coram Domino iuxta omnia, quae fecerat Ozias pater suus, excepto quod non est ingressus templum Domini, et adhuc populus delinquebat.	2 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD according to all that his father Uzziah had done--only he did not invade the temple of the LORD. But the people still followed corrupt practices.
3 Ipse aedificavit portam domus Domini Superiorem et in muro Ophel multa construxit.	3 He built the upper gate of the house of the LORD, and did much building on the wall of Ophel.
4 Urbes quoque aedificavit in montibus Iudae et in saltibus castella et turres.	4 Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and forts and towers on the wooded hills.
5 Ipse pugnavit contra regem filiorum Ammon et vicit eos, dederuntque ei filii Ammon in anno illo centum talenta argenti et decem milia choros tritici ac totidem choros hordei; haec ei praebuerunt filii Ammon etiam in anno secundo et tertio.	5 He fought with the king of the Ammonites and prevailed against them. And the Ammonites gave him that year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat and ten thousand of barley. The Ammonites paid him the same amount in the second and the third years.
6 Corroboratusque est Ioatham, eo quod direxisset vias suas coram Domino Deo suo.	6 So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God.
7 Reliqua autem gestorum Ioatham et omnes pugnae eius et viae scriptae sunt in libro regum Israel et Iudae.	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.
8 Viginti quinque annorum erat, cum regnare coepisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem.	8 He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
9 Dormivitque Ioatham cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in civitate David; et regnavit Achaz filius eius pro eo.	9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
