The Reign Of Jotham

5 And he waged war with the king of the sons of Ammon, and he will be strong against them. And the sons of Ammon will give to him in that year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand cors of wheat, and barley ten thousand. This the sons of Ammon turned back to him, in the second year, and the third. 6 And Jotham will be strengthened, for he prepared his ways before Jehovah his God. 7 And the rest of the words of Jotham, and all his works and his ways, behold them written upon the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
