Chapter 27

Jotham was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok.

Tinha Jotão vinte e cinco anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezesseis anos em Jerusalém. E o nome de sua mãe era Jerusa, filha de Zadoque,   

And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Uzziah did: howbeit he entered not into the temple of the LORD. And the people did yet corruptly.

Ele fez o que era reto aos olhos do Senhor, conforme tudo o que fizera Uzias, seu pai; todavia não invadiu o templo do Senhor. Mas o povo ainda se corrompia.   

He built the high gate of the house of the LORD, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

Ele construiu a porta superior da casa do Senhor, e edificou extensivamente sobre o muro de Ofel.   

Moreover he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.

Também edificou cidades na região montanhosa de Judá, e castelos e torres nos bosques.   

He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon pay unto him, both the second year, and the third.

Guerreou contra o rei dos amonitas e prevaleceu sobre eles; de modo que os amonitas naquele ano lhe deram cem talentos de prata, dez mil coros de trigo e dez mil de cevada. Isso lhe trouxeram os amonitas também no segundo e no terceiro ano.   

So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before the LORD his God.

Assim Jotão se tornou poderoso, porque dirigiu os seus caminhos na presença do Senhor seu Deus.   

Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.

Ora, o restante dos atos de Jotão, e todas as suas guerras e os seus caminhos, eis que estão escritos no livro dos reis de Israel e de Judá.   

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

Tinha vinte e cinco anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou dezesseis anos em Jerusalém.   

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

E Jotão dormiu com seus pais, e o sepultaram na cidade de Davi. E Acaz, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
