1

 aJothamh3147 was twenty-fiveh6242h2568 yearsh8141 oldh1121 when he becameh4427a kingh4427a, and he reignedh4427a sixteenh8337ah6240 yearsh8141 in Jerusalemh3389. And his mother'sh517 nameh8034 was Jerushahh3388 the daughterh1323 of Zadokh6659.

2

He didh6213a righth3477 in the sighth5869 of the LORDh3068, according to allh3605 that his fatherh1 Uzziahh5818 had doneh6213a;  ahoweverh7534 he did not enterh935 the templeh1964 of the LORDh3068. But the peopleh5971a continuedh5750 actingh7843 corruptlyh7843.

3

He builth1129 the upperh5945a gateh8179 of the househ1004 of the LORDh3068, and he builth1129 extensivelyh7230 the wallh2346 of  aOphelh6077.

4

Moreover, he builth1129  acitiesh5892b in the hillh2022 countryh2022 of Judahh3063, and he builth1129 fortressesh1003a and towersh4026 on the woodedh2793 hills.

5

He foughth3898a also with the kingh4428 of the Ammonitesh1121h5983 and prevailedh2388 overh5921 them so that the Ammonitesh1121h5983 gaveh5414 him during that yearh8141 one hundredh3967 talentsh3603 of silverh3701, tenh6235 thousandh505  1korsh3734a of wheath2406 and tenh6235 thousandh505 of barleyh8184. The Ammonitesh1121h5983 also paidh7725 him thish2088 amount in the secondh8145 and in the thirdh7992 yearh8141.

6

 aSo Jothamh3147 becameh2388 mightyh2388 becauseh3588 he orderedh3559 his waysh1870 beforeh6440 the LORDh3068 his Godh430.

7

 aNow the resth3499a of the actsh1697 of Jothamh3147, even allh3605 his warsh4421 and his actsh1870, beholdh2009, they are writtenh3789 in the Bookh5612 of the Kingsh4428 of Israelh3478 and Judahh3063.

He was  atwenty-fiveh6242h2568 yearsh8141 oldh1121 when he becameh4427a kingh4427a, and he reignedh4427a sixteenh8337ah6240 yearsh8141 in Jerusalemh3389.

9

And Jothamh3147 slepth7901 with his fathersh1, and they buriedh6912 him in the cityh5892b of Davidh1732; and Ahazh271 his sonh1121 becameh4427a kingh4427a in his placeh8478.
