<< 2 Chronicles 27:5 >>
He 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 kors of wheat and ten thousand of barley. The Ammonites also paid him this amount in the second and in the third year. (NASB ©1995)

2 Chronicles 27:6 So Jotham became mighty because he ordered his ways before the LORD his God. (NASB ©1995)


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.

the king of the Ammonites We find here, that he brought the Ammonites under a heavy tribute for three years; but whether this was the effect of his prevailing against them, is not so evident. Some think that they paid this tribute for three years, and then revolted; that, in consequence, he attacked them, and their utter subjection was the result. 2Ch 20:1 Jud 11:4 2Sa 10:1-14 Jer 49:1-6

ten thousand
Rather, `ten thousand cors (korim) of wheat.' The cor was same as the homer, and contained about 32 pecks 1 pint.
