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 DE VEINTICINCO años era Joatham cuando comenzó á reinar, y dieciséis años reinó en Jerusalem. El nombre de su madre fué Jerusa, hija de Sadoc.
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 E hizo lo recto en ojos de Jehová, conforme á todas las cosas que había hecho Uzzías su padre, salvo que no entró en el templo de Jehová. Y el pueblo falseaba aún.
3 He improved the high gate of the house of the Lord. And he built many things upon the wall of Ophel.
3 Edificó él la puerta mayor de la casa de Jehová, y en el muro de la fortaleza edificó mucho.
4 Also, he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and fortresses and towers in the forests.
4 Además edificó ciudades en las montañas de Judá, y labró palacios y torres en los bosques.
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 También tuvo él guerra con el rey de los hijos de Ammón, á los cuales venció; y diéronle los hijos de Ammón en aquel año cien talentos de plata, y diez mil coros de trigo, y diez mil de cebada. Esto le dieron los hijos de Ammón, y lo mismo en el segundo año, y en el tercero.
6 And Jotham was strengthened, because he had directed his way before the Lord his God.
6 Así que Joatham fué fortificado, porque preparó sus caminos delante de Jehová su Dios.
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 Lo demás de los hechos de Joatham, y todas sus guerras, y sus caminos, he aquí está escrito en el libro de los reyes de Israel y de Judá.
8 He was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem.
8 Cuando comenzó á reinar era de veinticinco años, y dieciséis reinó en Jerusalem.
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 Y durmió Joatham con sus padres, y sepultáronlo en la ciudad de David; y reinó en su lugar Achâz su hijo.
