The XXVII. Chapter.
A noteIotham was fyue and twentye yeare
olde whan he was made kynge, and
reigned sixtene yeare at Ierusalem.
His mothers name was Ierusa the daughter
of Sadoc: ∧ he dyd righte in the sighte of
the LORDE as did Osias his father: sauynge
þt; he wente not in to the temple of the LORDE,
and the people yet marred them selues.
He buylded the hye porte of the house of þe;
LORDE, and on the wall of Ophel buylded
he moch, and buylded the cities vpon the
mountaynes of Iuda, and in the woddes
buylded he castels and towres.
B And he fought with the kinge of the children
of Ammon, and ouer came them, so that
the childr&ebar; of Ammon gaue him þe; same yeare
an hundreth talentes of siluer, ten thousande
quarters of wheate, and ten thousande
of barlye. So moch dyd the children of Ammon
geue him also in þe; seconde ∧ thirde yeare.
Thus became Iotham mightye, for he gyded
his wayes before the LORDE his God.
What more there is to saye of Iotham, ∧
all his warres, vnd his waies, beholde, it is
wrytten in þe; boke of the kinges of Israel ∧
Iuda. Fyue and twentye yeare olde was he
whan he was made kynge, ∧ reigned sixtene
yeare at Ierusal&ebar;. And Ioth&abar; fell on slepe &wt;
his fathers, ∧ they buryed him in the cite of
Dauid, and Achas his sonne was kynge in
his steade.
