¹Jotám mal dvadsaťpäť rokov, keď začal kraľovať, a kraľoval šestnásť rokov v Jeruzaleme. Meno jeho matky bolo Jeruša, dcéra Cádokova.

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.

²A robil to, čo je spravedlivé v očiach Hospodinových, všetko tak, ako robil Uziáš, jeho otec, len že nevošiel do chrámu Hospodinovho. Ale ľud bol ešte vždy porušený.

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.

³On vystavil hornú bránu domu Hospodinovho i na múre Ofela staväl mnoho.

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

⁴Krome toho vystavil mestá na pohorí Júdovom a v lesoch nastaväl zámkov a veží.

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

⁵Ten istý tiež bojoval s kráľom synov Ammonových a premohol ich. A synovia Ammonovi mu dali toho roku sto hrivien striebra a desať tisíc korov pšenice a jačmeňa tiež desať tisíc. Toľko mu dali synovia Ammonovi i druhého roku i tretieho.

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.

⁶A tak zmocnel Jotám, lebo upravil svoje cesty pred Hospodinom, svojím Bohom.

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

⁷A ostatné deje Jotámove jako i všetky jeho vojny i jeho cesty, tie hľa, sú napísané v knihe kráľov Izraelových a Júdových.

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.

⁸Dvadsaťpäť rokov mal, keď začal kraľovať, a kraľoval šestnásť rokov v Jeruzaleme.

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

⁹A tak ľahol Jotám a ležal so svojimi otcami, a pochovali ho v meste Dávidovom. A kraľoval Achaz, jeho syn, miesto neho.

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