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 the daughter of Zadok.
1Jotam je bil petindvajset let star, ko je zakraljeval, in vladal je šestnajst let v Jeruzalemu; in materi njegovi je bilo ime Jerusa, hči Zadokova.
2He did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that his father Uzziah had done: however he didn’t enter into Yahweh’s temple. The people still did corruptly.
2In delal je, kar je bilo prav v očeh GOSPODOVIH, po vsem, kar je bil delal Uzija, oče njegov, samo da ni šel v tempelj GOSPODOV. A ljudstvo je še ravnalo popačeno.
3He built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.
3On je sezidal gorenja vrata pri hiši GOSPODOVI, tudi na zidu Ofelovem je zidal veliko.
4Moreover he built cities in the hill country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
4Dalje je sezidal mesta na Judovem gorovju, in v gozdih je zgradil gradove in stolpe.
5He fought also with the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against them. The children of Ammon gave him the same year one hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. The children of Ammon gave that much to him in the second year also, and in the third.
5Bojeval se je tudi s kraljem sinov Amonovih in ga je premagal. In sinovi Amonovi so mu tisto leto dali sto talentov srebra in deset tisoč mer pšenice in deset tisoč ječmena. Toliko so mu dali sinovi Amonovi v drugem in v tretjem letu.
6So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before Yahweh his God.
6Tako je postal Jotam mogočen, ker je uravnal poti svoji pred GOSPODOM, svojim Bogom.
7Now 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.
7Kar pa je več praviti o Jotamu, o vseh vojskah in vseh potih njegovih, glej, zapisano je v knjigi kraljev Izraelovih in Judovih.
8He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
8Petindvajset let je bil star, ko je zakraljeval, in vladal je šestnajst let v Jeruzalemu.In legel je Jotam k očetom svojim, in pokopali so ga v mestu Davidovem, in Ahaz, sin njegov, je zakraljeval na mestu njegovem.
9Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.
9In legel je Jotam k očetom svojim, in pokopali so ga v mestu Davidovem, in Ahaz, sin njegov, je zakraljeval na mestu njegovem.
