Chapter 27
II C ACV 27:1  Jotham 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.
II C ACV 27:2  And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his father Uzziah had done. However he did not enter into the temple of Jehovah. And the people still did corruptly.
II C ACV 27:3  He built the upper gate of the house of Jehovah, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.
II C ACV 27:4  Moreover he built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.
II C ACV 27:5  Also he fought with the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevailed against them. And the sons of Ammon gave him the same year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the sons of Ammon render to him, in the second year also, and in the third.
II C ACV 27:6  So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before Jehovah his God.
II C ACV 27:7  Now 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.
II C ACV 27:8  He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
II C ACV 27:9  And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David. And Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
