2 Chronicles 27:5

Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible

He fought also with the king of the children of Ammon, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon render unto him, in the second year also, and in the third.
Jotham waged war against the king of the Ammonites and defeated them, and that year they gave him a hundred talents of silver (note: 100 talents is approximately 3.77 tons or 3.42 metric tons of silver.), ten thousand cors of wheat (note: 10,000 cors is approximately 62,400 bushels or 2.2 million liters (probably about 1,920 tons or 1,740 metric tons of wheat).), and ten thousand cors of barley (note: 10,000 cors is approximately 62,400 bushels or 2.2 million liters (probably about 1,450 tons or 1,315 metric tons of barley).). They paid him the same in the second and third years.
