Ten też walczył z królem Ammonitów i zwalczył je, tak iż Ammonitowie dali mu na rok sto talentów śrebra i dziesięć tysięcy korcy pszenice i dziesięć tysięcy korcy jęczmienia. A dawali mu to Ammonitowie na drugi i na trzeci rok.
On także walczył z królem Ammonitów i pokonał go, tak że Ammonici przekazali mu tego roku sto talentów srebra, dziesięć tysięcy korów pszenicy i dziesięć tysięcy korów jęczmienia. Taką samą daninę złożyli mu jeszcze w dwóch kolejnych latach.
On też walczył z królem synów Ammona i ich zwyciężył. Więc synowie Ammona dali mu tego roku sto talentów srebra, dziesięć tysięcy korców pszenicy i dziesięć tysięcy jęczmienia; podobnie synowie Ammona dali mu i drugiego, i trzeciego roku.
Ten też walczył z królem synów Ammonowych, i zwyciężył ich. I dali mu synowie Ammonowi tegoż roku sto talentów srebra, i dziesięć tysięcy korcy pszenicy, i jęczmienia dziesięć tysięcy korcy; tyleż mu dali synowie Ammonowi i drugiego, i trzeciego roku.
Walczył również z królem Ammonitów i pokonał ich. Synowie Ammona dali mu tego roku sto talentów srebra i dziesięć tysięcy kor pszenicy oraz dziesięć tysięcy kor jęczmienia. Tyle samo dali mu synowie Ammona w drugim i trzecim roku.
On to prowadził wojnę z królem Ammonitów, których zwyciężył, tak że w owym roku złożyli mu Ammonici sto talentów srebra okupu i dziesięć tysięcy korców pszenicy, i dziesięć tysięcy korców jęczmienia. Tyle też płacili mu Ammonici w roku następnym i w roku trzecim.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
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. 2 Chronicles 20:1, Judges 11:4-33, 2 Samuel 10:1-14, Jeremiah 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.
So much: Heb. This
Reciprocal: 1 Chronicles 19:6 - a thousand
Gill's Notes on the Bible
He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them,.... These were brought into subjection by David; but in later times endeavoured to cast off the yoke, and even invaded the land of Judah, as in the days of Jehoshaphat, and now in the reign of Jotham, but succeeded not, see Amos 1:13
and the children of Ammon gave him the same year one hundred talents of silver; he obliged them to pay this tribute annually, and which they began to pay in the present year, and amounted to 35,330 pounds,
and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley; the measure here is the "cor", the same with the "homer"; which, according to Godwin h, held forty five gallons, or five bushels and five gallons, so that there must be upwards of 50,000 bushels of each of these paid to Jotham; according to Bishop Cumberland i, a "cor", or "homer", held seventy five wine gallons, and upwards of five pints:
so much did the children of Ammon pay both the second year and the third; the two following years as well as the present one; why this tribute was not continued to be paid cannot be said with certainty, whether the Ammonites refused and revolted, and could not be obliged, or whether the agreement was only for three years.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Ammonites, who had submitted to Uzziah 2 Chronicles 26:8, revolted against Jotham. This revolt he firmly repressed; and, to punish it, he exacted a high rate of tribute for the three years following the termination of the war. The productiveness of the Ammonite country in grain, which is here indicated, has been remarked upon as extraordinary by modern travelers.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 27:5. He fought also with - the Ammonites — We find here that he brought them 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.
