2 Dungkrhoekhaih 5

1 Angraeng ih im hanah Solomon mah toksak pacoeng boih naah, ampa David mah paek ih hmuennawk boih to lak moe, sui, sumkanglung hoi kalah hmuennawk boih to, Sithaw ih hmuenmae pakuemhaih ahmuen ah a suek.

So all the work that Solomon had performed for the house of the LORD was completed. Then Solomon brought in the items his father David had dedicated—the silver, the gold, and all the furnishings—and he placed them in the treasuries of the house of God.

2 Solomon mah David ih vangpui, Zion vangpui hoiah Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong to angzawn hanah, Israel zaehoikungnawk, acaeng lu koeknawk, Israel acaeng zaehoikungnawk to Jerusalem ah kawk boih.

At that time Solomon assembled in Jerusalem the elders of Israel—all the tribal heads and family leaders of the Israelites—to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from Zion, the City of David.

3 To pongah Israel kaminawk loe khrah sarihto naah sak ih poih niah, siangpahrang khaeah angzoh o boih.

So all the men of Israel came together to the king at the feast in the seventh month.

4 Israel kacoehtanawk angzoh o boih moe, Levi acaengnawk mah thingkhong to angzawn o.

When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the Levites took up the ark,

5 Angraeng ih thingkhong, kaminawk amgkhuenghaih kahni im, kahni imthung ah kaom kaciim hmuennawk to angzawn o boih; qaimanawk hoi Levi acaengnawk mah angzawn o.

and they brought up the ark and the Tent of Meeting with all its sacred furnishings. The Levitical priests carried them up.

6 Solomon siangpahrang hoi Angraeng ih thingkhong hmaa ah amkhueng Israel kaminawk boih mah, kroek laek ai, paroeai kapop tuu hoi maitawtaenawk to angbawnhaih ah paek o.

There, before the ark, King Solomon and the whole congregation of Israel who had assembled with him sacrificed so many sheep and oxen that they could not be counted or numbered.

7 Qaimanawk mah kaom tangcae lok baktih toengah, Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong to im thung ih hmuenciim, Kaciim Koek ahmuen, cherubimnawk ih pakhraeh tlim ah suek o.

Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the LORD to its place in the inner sanctuary of the temple, the Most Holy Place, beneath the wings of the cherubim.

8 Thingkhong suekhaih ahmuen loe Cherubim ih pakhraeh mah khuk khoep; thingkhong hoi angzawnhaih cung doeh cherubim mah khuk hmoek.

For the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark and overshadowed the ark and its poles.

9 Angzawnhaih cung loe sawk parai pongah, athung ih hmuenciim hma hoiah amtueng; toe tasa bang hoiah loe amtueng ai; vaihni ni khoek to to ahmuen ah oh vop.

The poles of the ark extended far enough that their ends were visible from in front of the inner sanctuary, but not from outside the Holy Place; and they are there to this day.

10 Israel caanawk Izip prae thung hoi tacawt o pacoengah, Angraeng mah nihcae hoi lokmaihaih to sak, to naah Mosi mah Horeb ah suek ih thlung kangphaek daek hnetto khue ai ah loe, thingkhong thungah tidoeh om ai.

There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets that Moses had placed in it at Horeb, where the LORD had made a covenant with the Israelites after they had come out of Egypt.

11 To pacoeng ah qaimanawk loe hmuenciim hoiah amlaem o; naa bang ih qaima maw, kawbaktih qaima maw, tiah pathlaenghaih om ai ah, to ahmuen ah kaom qaimanawk boih loe ciimcai ah oh o.

Now all the priests who were present had consecrated themselves regardless of their divisions. And when the priests came out of the Holy Place,

12 Laasah Levi acaengnawk, Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun hoi anih ih caanawk, angmah ih nawkamyanawk boih loe, puu ngan kahni kanglung to angkhuek o; hmaicam ni angyae bangah angdoet o moe, cingceng bohhaih hoiah congca katoengnawk to kruek o; cumvai pumphaeto mongkah ueng qaimanawk mah nihcae to angdoet o haih;

all the Levitical singers—Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and relatives—stood on the east side of the altar, dressed in fine linen and playing cymbals, harps, and lyres, accompanied by 120 priests sounding trumpets.

13 mongkah ueng kaminawk hoi laasah kaminawk nawnto amhong o, lok maeto hoiah Angraeng to saphaw o moe, anghoehaih lok a thuih o; mongkahnawk, cingcengnawk hoi kalah congca tamoinawk to kruek o moe, tha hoi Angraeng to saphaw o; Anih loe hoih; Anih ih amlunghaih loe dungzan khoek to cak, tiah hang o naah, Angraeng ih im to tamai mah khuk khoep:

The trumpeters and singers joined together to praise and thank the LORD with one voice. They lifted up their voices, accompanied by trumpets, cymbals, and musical instruments, in praise to the LORD: “For He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.” And the temple, the house of the LORD, was filled with a cloud

14 tamai mah khuk hmoek pongah, qaimanawk doeh toksak han angdoe o thai ai boeh; to tiah im loe Angraeng lensawkhaih hoiah koi.

so that the priests could not stand there to minister because of the cloud; for the glory of the LORD filled the house of God.
