1 Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king; and he was ruling in Jerusalem for sixteen years; and his mother's name was Jerushah, the daughter of Zadok.
2 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Uzziah had done; but he did not go into the Temple of the Lord. And the people still went on in their evil ways.
3 He put up the higher doorway of the house of the Lord, and did much building on the wall of the Ophel.
4 In addition, he made towns in the hill-country of Judah, and strong buildings and towers in the woodlands.
