2 Chronicles 27:2-5

2He did what was 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 the wall of 2Ophel extensively.

4Moreover, he built 3cities in the hill country of Judah, and he built fortresses and towers on the wooded hills.

5He fought with the king of the Ammonites and prevailed over them so that during that year the Ammonites gave him 4a hundred talents of silver, 5ten thousand kors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. The Ammonites also paid him this amount in the second year and in the third.
