¹Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jerushah, daughter of Zadok.

¹ Yotam gonda jiiri waranka cindi gu waato kaŋ a sintin ka may. A may jiiri way cindi iddu Urusalima ra. A nyaŋo maa ga ti Yerusa, Zadok ize way no.

²And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his father Uzziah had done; only he entered not into the temple of Jehovah. And the people still acted corruptly.

² A te haŋ kaŋ ga saba Rabbi diyaŋ gaa, a na hay kulu te mate kaŋ cine a baabo Uzziya te, amma a mana furo Rabbi wane sududuyaŋ fuwo ra. Amma hala ka kaa sohõ laabo borey goono ga kazaamataray goy te.

³It was he who built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

³ A na Rabbi windo Beene Meyo cina, Ofel garo boŋ mo a na cinayaŋ boobo te.

⁴And he built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.

⁴ A na galluyaŋ cina mo Yahuda tudey laabo ra. Saaji beerey ra mo a na wongu fu beeri yaŋ da cinari kuuku yaŋ cina.

⁵And he fought against the king of the children of Ammon, and overcame them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. This the children of Ammon brought again to him also in the second year, and in the third.

⁵ A wongu nda Amon izey bonkoono mo ka te zaama i boŋ. Jiiri woodin ra mo Amon izey n'a no nzarfu ton taaci nda jare cine, da alkama tono zambar way, da sayir* tono zambar way. Yaadin cine no Amon izey no a se. Jiiri hinkanta ra mo koyne yaadin, ka koy hala jiiri hinzanta ra.

⁶And Jotham became strong, for he prepared his ways before Jehovah his God.

⁶ Yotam binde ciya gaabikooni, zama a na nga muraadey sasabandi Rabbi nga Irikoyo jine.

⁷And 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.

⁸He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.

⁸ A gonda jiiri waranka cindi gu waato kaŋ a sintin ka may. A may mo jiiri way cindi iddu Urusalima ra.

⁹And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.

⁹ Yotam kani nga kaayey banda, i n'a fiji mo Dawda birno ra. A izo Ahaz te bonkooni a nango ra.
