CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN
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. #2 Ki. 15:32
2And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Uzziah did. Only, he did not enter into the temple of the Lord. And the people still did corruptly. #2 Ki. 15:35
3He built the Upper Gate of the house of the Lord, and on the wall of Ophel he built much. #Neh. 3:26; 2 Chr. 33:14
4And he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and in the forests he built fortresses and towers.
5And he fought against the king of the Ammonites and prevailed over 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 paid to him, both the second year and the third.
6And Jotham became mighty because he prepared his ways before the Lord his God.
7And 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.
8He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.
9And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David. And his son Ahaz reigned in his place. #2 Ki. 15:38
