2 Chronicles 27

1Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jerushah, daughter of Zadok. 2And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Uzziah had done; but he went not into the temple of the Lord. And still the people corrupted themselves. 3He built the high gate of the house of the Lord, and he built extensively on the wall of Ophel. 4In the mountain of Judah, and in the woods, he built both dwelling places and towers. 5He fought against the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against him. And the children of Ammon gave him a hundred talents of silver each year, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand measures of barley. These the king of the children of Ammon brought to him annually. 6So Jotham grew strong, because he prepared his ways before the Lord his God. 7And the rest of the acts of Jotham, and his war, and his deeds, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 9And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried in the City of David; and Ahaz his son reigned in his place.
