2 CHRONICLES 27 (NIV)

1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in
Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerusha daughter of Zadok.

2 He
did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father Uzziah had
done, but unlike him he did not enter the temple of the Lord. The people,
however, continued their corrupt practices.

3 Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of
the temple of the Lord and did extensive work on the wall at the hill of
Ophel.

4 He built towns in the hill country of Judah and forts and towers in
the wooded areas.

5 Jotham waged war against the king of the Ammonites and conquered them. That
year the Ammonites paid him a hundred talents of silver, ten thousand cors of
wheat and ten thousand cors of barley. The Ammonites brought him the same
amount also in the second and third years.

6 Jotham grew powerful because he walked steadfastly before the Lord his God.

7 The other events in Jotham’s reign, including all his wars and the other
things he did, are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.

8 He
was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem
sixteen years.

9 Jotham rested with his ancestors and was buried in the City
of David. And Ahaz his son succeeded him as king.
