== Divrei Hayamim II (Book of 2 Chronicles), Chapter 27 ==

<named id="1"/>1 Jotham was twenty and 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.

<named id="2"/>2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of HaShem, according to all that his father Uzziah had done; howbeit he entered not into the temple of HaShem. And the people did yet corruptly.

<named id="3"/>3 He built the upper gate of the house of HaShem, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

<named id="4"/>4 Moreover he built cities in the hill-country of Judah, and in the forest he built castles and towers.

<named id="5"/>5 He fought also with the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against 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. So much did the children of Ammon render unto him, in the second year also, and in the third.

<named id="6"/>6 So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before HaShem his G-d.

<named id="7"/>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.

<named id="8"/>8 He was five and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.

<named id="9"/>9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
