HOLY BIBLE: 2 Chronicles 27 (original) (raw)

1 υἱὸς εἴκοσι πέντε ἐτῶν Ιωαθαμ ἐν τῷ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτὸν καὶ δέκα ἓξ ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Ιερουσα θυγάτηρ Σαδωκ 2 καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησεν Οζιας ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ ἀλ{L'} οὐκ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν ναὸν κυρίου καὶ ἔτι ὁ λαὸς κατεφθείρετο 3 αὐτὸς ᾠκοδόμησεν τὴν πύλην οἴκου κυρίου τὴν ὑψηλὴν καὶ ἐν τείχει τοῦ Οφλα ᾠκοδόμησεν πολλά 4 καὶ πόλεις ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν ὄρει Ιουδα καὶ ἐν τοῖς δρυμοῖς καὶ οἰκήσεις καὶ πύργους 5 αὐτὸς ἐμαχέσατο πρὸς βασιλέα υἱῶν Αμμων καὶ κατίσχυσεν ἐ{P'} αὐτόν καὶ ἐδίδουν αὐτῷ οἱ υἱοὶ Αμμων κα{T'} ἐνιαυτὸν ἑκατὸν τάλαντα ἀργυρίου καὶ δέκα χιλιάδας κόρων πυροῦ καὶ κριθῶν δέκα χιλιάδας ταῦτα ἔφερεν αὐτῷ βασιλεὺς Αμμων κα{T'} ἐνιαυτὸν ἐν τῷ πρώτῳ ἔτει καὶ τῷ δευτέρῳ καὶ τῷ τρίτῳ 6 καὶ κατίσχυσεν Ιωαθαμ ὅτι ἡτοίμασεν τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ ἔναντι κυρίου θεοῦ αὐτοῦ 7 καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ λόγοι Ιωαθαμ καὶ ὁ πόλεμος καὶ αἱ πράξεις αὐτοῦ ἰδοὺ γεγραμμένοι ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ βασιλέων Ιουδα καὶ Ισραηλ 8 9 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ιωαθαμ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει Δαυιδ καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Αχαζ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀν{T'} αὐτοῦ

1 This Joatham was twenty-five years old when he came to the throne, and his reign at Jerusalem lasted sixteen years; his mother’s name was Jerusa, daughter of Sadoc. 2 He obeyed the Lord’s will, imitating the piety of Ozias, but not his sacrilege;[1] among the people, there were corrupt ways of worship still. 3 He it was built the high gate that leads into the Lord’s house, and added much to the Ophel wall; 4 there are walled cities, too, in the hill-country of Juda, fortresses and towers in woodland places, that are of his building. 5 He gave battle to the Ammonites and defeated them; a hundred talents of silver the Ammonites must pay him, with ten thousand measures of wheat, and as many of barley, that year and in the two years that followed. 6 Such greatness Joatham achieved by his obedience to the Lord’s will. 7 What else he did, the battles he fought and the life he lived, may be found set down in the Record of the kings of Israel and Juda. 8 So, when he had lived forty-one years, and reigned sixteen years at Jerusalem, 9 Joatham was laid to rest with his fathers, with the Keep of David for his burying-place, and the throne passed to his son Achaz.

1 Viginti quinque annorum erat Joatham cum regnare cœpisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Jerusalem: nomen matris ejus Jerusa filia Sadoc. 2 Fecitque quod rectum erat coram Domino, juxta omnia quæ fecerat Ozias pater suus, excepto quod non est ingressus templum Domini: et adhuc populus delinquebat. 3 Ipse ædificavit portam domus Domini excelsam, et in muro Ophel multa construxit. 4 Urbes quoque ædificavit in montibus Juda, et in saltibus castella et turres. 5 Ipse pugnavit contra regem filiorum Ammon, et vicit eos, dederuntque ei filii Ammon in tempore illo centum talenta argenti, et decem millia coros tritici, ac totidem coros hordei: hæc ei præbuerunt filii Ammon in anno secundo et tertio. 6 Corroboratusque est Joatham, eo quod direxisset vias suas coram Domino Deo suo. 7 Reliqua autem sermonum Joatham, et omnes pugnæ ejus et opera, scripta sunt in libro regum Israël et Juda. 8 Viginti quinque annorum erat cum regnare cœpisset, et sedecim annis regnavit in Jerusalem. 9 Dormivitque Joatham cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in civitate David: et regnavit Achaz filius ejus pro eo.
