٢ أخبار 5

١ 1 وَكَمُلَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْعَمَلِ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَهُ سُلَيْمَانُ لِبَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَأَدْخَلَ سُلَيْمَانُ أَقْدَاسَ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. وَٱلْفِضَّةُ وَٱلذَّهَبُ وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْآنِيَةِ جَعَلَهَا فِي خَزَائِنِ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ.

Thus all the work that Solomon wrought for the house of the LORD was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated; even the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels, and put them ha the treasuries of the house of God.

٢ 2 حِينَئِذٍ جَمَعَ سُلَيْمَانُ شُيُوخَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَكُلَّ رُؤُوسِ ٱلْأَسْبَاطِ، رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْآبَاءِ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِإِصْعَادِ تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنْ مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، هِيَ صِهْيَوْنُ.

Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers’ houses of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.

٣ 3 فَٱجْتَمَعَ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ جَمِيعُ رِجَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي ٱلْعِيدِ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلسَّابِعِ.

And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king at the feast, which was [in] the seventh month.

٤ 4 وَجَاءَ جَمِيعُ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَحَمَلَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ ٱلتَّابُوتَ،

And all the elders of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.

٥ 5 وَأَصْعَدُوا ٱلتَّابُوتَ وَخَيْمَةَ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ مَعَ جَمِيعِ آنِيَةِ ٱلْقُدْسِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْخَيْمَةِ، أَصْعَدَهَا ٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ.

and they brought up the ark, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; these did the priests the Levites bring up.

٦ 6 وَٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ وَكُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمُجْتَمِعِينَ إِلَيْهِ أَمَامَ ٱلتَّابُوتِ كَانُوا يَذْبَحُونَ غَنَمًا وَبَقَرًا مَا لَا يُحْصَى وَلَا يُعَدُّ مِنَ ٱلْكَثْرَةِ.

And king Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, were before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude.

٧ 7 وَأَدْخَلَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ تَابُوتَ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ فِي مِحْرَابِ ٱلْبَيْتِ فِي قُدْسِ ٱلْأَقْدَاسِ إِلَى تَحْتِ جَنَاحَيِ ٱلْكَرُوبَيْنِ.

And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

٨ 8 وَكَانَ ٱلْكَرُوبَانِ بَاسِطَيْنِ أَجْنِحَتَهُمَا عَلَى مَوْضِعِ ٱلتَّابُوتِ. وَظَلَّلَ ٱلْكَرُوبَانِ ٱلتَّابُوتَ وَعِصِيَّهُ مِنْ فَوْقُ.

For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staves thereof above:

٩ 9 وَجَذَبُوا ٱلْعِصِيَّ فَتَرَاءَتْ رُؤُوسُ ٱلْعِصِيِّ مِنَ ٱلتَّابُوتِ أَمَامَ ٱلْمِحْرَابِ وَلَمْ تُرَ خَارِجًا، وَهِيَ هُنَاكَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ.

And the staves were so long that the ends of the staves were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without: and there it is, unto this day.

١٠ 10 لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي ٱلتَّابُوتِ إِلَّا ٱللَّوْحَانِ ٱللَّذَانِ وَضَعَهُمَا مُوسَى فِي حُورِيبَ حِينَ عَاهَدَ ٱلرَّبُّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِهِمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ.

There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

١١ 11 وَكَانَ لَمَّا خَرَجَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ مِنَ ٱلْقُدْسِ، لِأَنَّ جَمِيعَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ ٱلْمَوْجُودِينَ تَقَدَّسُوا، لَمْ تُلَاحَظِ ٱلْفِرَقُ.

And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, (for all the priests that were present had sanctified themselves, and did not keep their courses;

١٢ 12 وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ ٱلْمُغَنُّونَ أَجْمَعُونَ: آسَافُ وَهَيْمَانُ وَيَدُوثُونُ وَبَنُوهُمْ وَإِخْوَتُهُمْ، لَابِسِينَ كَتَّانًا، بِٱلصُّنُوجِ وَٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلْعِيدَانِ وَاقِفِينَ شَرْقِيَّ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ، وَمَعَهُمْ مِنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ مِئَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ يَنْفُخُونَ فِي ٱلْأَبْوَاقِ.

also the Levites which were the singers, all of them, even Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and their brethren, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets: )

١٣ 13 وَكَانَ لَمَّا صَوَّتَ ٱلْمُبَوِّقُونَ وَٱلْمُغَنُّونَ كَوَاحِدٍ صَوْتًا وَاحِدًا لِتَسْبِيحِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَحَمْدِهِ، وَرَفَعُوا صَوْتًا بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ وَٱلصُّنُوجِ وَآلَاتِ ٱلْغِنَاءِ وَٱلتَّسْبِيحِ لِلرَّبِّ: «لِأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ لِأَنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ». أَنَّ ٱلبَيْتَ،بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ، ٱمْتَلَأَ سَحَابًا.

it came even to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD, [saying], For he is good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD,

١٤ 14 وَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعِ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ أَنْ يَقِفُوا لِلْخِدْمَةِ بِسَبَبِ ٱلسَّحَابِ، لِأَنَّ مَجْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ مَلَأَ بَيْتَ ٱللهِ.

so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD filled the house of God.
