2 Chronicles 27:2-5
2He did right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Uzziah had done; 1however he did not enter the temple of the Lord. But the people continued acting corruptly.
3He built the upper gate of the house of the Lord, and he built extensively the wall of 2Ophel.
4Moreover, he built 3cities in the hill country of Judah, and he built fortresses and towers on the wooded hills.
5He fought also with the king of the Ammonites and prevailed over them so that the Ammonites gave him during that year one hundred talents of silver, ten thousand 4kors of wheat and ten thousand of barley. The Ammonites also paid him this amount in the second and in the third year.
