1 J otham was twenty-five years old when he became king. And he ruled for sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jerushah the daughter of Zadok.

Yootamna markuu boqor noqday wuxuu jiray shan iyo labaatan sannadood, oo Yeruusaalem ayuu boqor ku ahaa lix iyo toban sannadood, oo hooyadiis magaceedana waxaa la odhan jiray Yeruushaah ina Saadooq.

2 J otham did what was right in the eyes of the Lord. He did all that his father Uzziah had done, only he did not go into the house of the Lord. But the people still sinned much.

Oo isna wuxuu sameeyey wax Rabbiga hortiisa ku qumman, oo wuxuu wada yeelay sidii aabbihiis Cusiyaah yeelay oo kale. Habase yeeshee ma uu gelin macbudkii Rabbiga, oo dadkiina weliba way sii xumaadeen.

3 J otham built the upper gate of the Lord’s house, and did much building on the wall of Ophel.

Oo isagu wuxuu dhisay iriddii sare oo guriga Rabbiga, oo derbigii Cofel dushiisana wax badan buu ka dhisay.

4 H e built cities in the hill country of Judah, and strong places and towers on the tree-covered hills.

Oo haddana wuxuu magaalooyin ka dhisay dalka Yahuudah oo buuraha leh, oo kaynta dhexdeedana wuxuu ka dhisay qalcado iyo munaarado.

5 H e fought with the king of the Ammonites and won the war against them so that the Ammonites paid taxes to him. During that year they paid him silver weighing as much as 100 men, 100, 000 baskets of wheat, and 100, 000 baskets of barley. The Ammonites also paid him this amount in the second and in the third year.

Oo weliba wuxuu la diriray oo ka adkaaday boqorkii reer Cammoon. Oo reer Cammoonna isla sannaddaasba waxay isagii siiyeen boqol talanti oo lacag ah, iyo toban kun oo kor oo sarreen ah, iyo toban kun oo kor oo shaciir ah. Oo reer Cammoon intaas ayay siiyeen sannaddii labaad iyo sannaddii saddexaadba.

6 S o Jotham became powerful, because he let the Lord his God lead him in all his ways.

Oo sidaasuu Yootam u xoogaystay, maxaa yeelay, jidadkiisa ayuu ku hor toosiyey Rabbiga Ilaahiisa ah.

7 N ow the rest of the acts of Jotham, all his wars and his acts, are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah.

Haddaba Yootam falimihiisii kale iyo dagaalladiisii oo dhan iyo jidadkiisii oo dhammu waxay ku qoran yihiin kitaabkii boqorrada dalka Israa'iil iyo dalka Yahuudah.

8 H e was twenty-five years old when he became king, and ruled for sixteen years in Jerusalem.

Markuu boqor noqday wuxuu jiray shan iyo labaatan sannadood, oo Yeruusaalemna lix iyo toban sannadood buu boqor ku ahaa.

9 J otham died and they buried him in the city of David. His son Ahaz became king in his place.

Markaasaa Yootam dhintay oo la seexday awowayaashiis oo waxaa lagu aasay magaaladii Daa'uud, oo meeshiisiina waxaa boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii Aaxaas.
