2 Chronicles 27 — WBMS
27Verse 1Jotham was of five and twenty years, when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; the name of his mother was Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok.Verse 2He did that, that was rightful [or right] before the Lord, by all things which Uzziah, his father, had done; except that he entered not into the temple of the Lord, and the people trespassed yet.Verse 3He builded the high gate of the house of the Lord, and he builded many things in the wall of Ophel;Verse 4also he builded cities in the hills of Judah, and he builded castles and towers in forests [or high woods].Verse 5He fought against the king of the sons of Ammon, and overcame him; and the sons of Ammon gave to him in that time an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of barley, and so many of wheat; the sons of Ammon gave these things to him in the second, and the third years.Verse 6And Jotham was made strong, for he had dressed his ways before the Lord his God.Verse 7Forsooth the residue of [the] words of Jotham, and all his battles, and works, be written in the book of the kings of Israel and of Judah.Verse 8He was of five and twenty years, when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.Verse 9And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Ahaz, his son, reigned for him.
