2 Chronicles 27:2-4

Common English Bible

² Jotham did what was right in the Lord’s eyes, just as his father Uzziah had done. Unlike Uzziah, Jotham didn’t enter the Lord’s temple. But the people continued their crooked practices. ³ Jotham rebuilt the Upper Gate of the Lord’s temple and did extensive work on the wall of the elevated fortress.^{[a] 4} He built towns in Judah’s highlands and fortresses and towers in the wooded areas.
