← 2 Chronicles 27:5	2 Chronicles 27:6 (KJV)	2 Chronicles 27:7 →
He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon pay unto him, both the second year, and the third.	So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before the LORD his God.	Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo, they [are] written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
