2 Khokhuen 5

1 Solomon loh BOEIPA im bitat a saii te boeih cung coeng. Te phoeiah a napa David loh Pathen im kah thakvoh khuiah a khueh hnopai boeih te cak khaw, sui khaw Solomon loh hmuencim la a khuen.

Then Solomon brought in all the things that David his father had vowed, the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels he put among the treasures of the house of God.

2 Te vaengah Solomon loh David khopuei Zion lamkah BOEIPA paipi thingkawng te Jerusalem la khuen hamla Israel kah a hamca rhoek neh koca boeilu boeih, Israel ca kah a napa khoboei rhoek te a tingtun sak.

And after this he gathered together the ancients of Israel, and all the princes of the tribes, and the heads of the families, of the children of Israel to Jerusalem, to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, which is Sion.

3 Te dongah hla rhih vaengkah khotue ah tah Israel hlang boeih te manghai taengah tingtun uh.

And all the men of Israel came to the king in the solemn day of the seventh month.

4 Israel a hamca rhoek boeih a pawk van neh Levi rhoek loh thingkawng te a koh.

And when all the ancients of Israel were come, the Levites took up the ark,

5 Te vaengah thingkawng neh tingtunnah dap khaw, dap khuikah hmuencim hnopai boeih te a khuen uh. Te rhoek te Levi khosoih rhoek loh a koh uh.

And brought it in, together with all the furniture of the tabernacle. And the priests with the Levites carried the vessels of the sanctuary, which were in the tabernacle.

6 Manghai Solomon neh Israel rhaengpuei boeih te thingkawng hmai kah a kaepvai ah tuentah uh tih boiva neh saelhung a nawn uh. Te te a cungkuem coeng dongah daek lek pawt tih tae uh lek pawh.

And king Solomon and all the assembly of Israel, and all that were gathered together before the ark, sacrificed rams, and oxen without number: so great was the multitude of the victims.

7 Te phoeiah Khosoih rhoek loh BOEIPA kah paipi thingkawng te cherubim phae hmui kah, hmuencim kah hmuencim ah, im kah cangimphu khui, amah kah a hmuen la a khuen uh.

And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, that is, to the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims:

8 Thingkawng hmuen soah phae aka phuel cherubim om. Te dongah cherubim loh thingkawng so neh a cung soah a so duela a khuk.

So that the cherubims spread their wings over the place, in which the ark was set, and covered the ark itself and its staves.

9 A cung te sen tih a cung kah hmoicue te thingkawng lamloh cangimphu hmai ah tueng. Tedae poeng la tueng pawt tih tahae khohnin hil pahoi om.

Now the ends of the staves wherewith the ark was carried, because they were some thing longer, were seen before the oracle: but if a man were a little outward, he could not see them. So the ark has been there unto this day.

10 Thingkawng khuiah a tloe om pawt tih Moses loh Horeb ah a khueh cabael rhoi bueng ni. Te tah Egypt lamloh a caeh uh phoeiah BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek taengah paipi la a saii pah.

And there was nothing else in the ark but the two tables which Moses put there at Horeb when the Lord gave the law to the children of Israel, at their coming out of Egypt.

11 Tedae khosoih boeih loh boelnah ham a ngaithuen uh mueh la a ciim uh te a hmuh dongah khosoih rhoek hmuencim lamloh nong uh.

Now when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, (for all the priests that could be found there, mere sanctified: and as yet at that time the courses and orders of the ministries were not divided among them, )

12 Amih laa aka sa Levi boeih khui kah Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun neh amih koca khaw a manuca rhoek tah baibok a bai tih tlaklak neh, thangpa neh, rhotoeng neh hmueihtuk kah khocuk ah pai uh. Amih taengah khosoih ya pakul loh olueng te a ueng la a ueng uh.

Both the Levites and the singing men, that is, both they that were under Asaph, and they that were under Heman, and they that were under Idithun, with their sons, and their brethren, clothed with fine linen, sounded with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps, standing on the east side of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests, sounding with trumpets.

13 Te vaengah olueng aka ueng aka ueng ham te pakhat la om. BOEIPA te thangthen ham neh uem ham vaengah ol pakhat la yaak sak ham laa a sak uh. BOEIPA te thangthen ham vaengah olueng neh, tlaklak neh, lumlaa kah hnopai neh ol khat la a pomsang uh. A sitlohnah kumhal duela then tih BOEIPA im kah cingmai im khuiah bae.

So when they all sounded together, both with trumpets, and voice, and cymbals, and organs, and with divers kind of musical instruments, and lifted up their voice on high: the sound was heard afar off, so that when they began to praise the Lord, and to say: Give glory to the Lord for he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever: the house of God was filled with a cloud.

14 Pathen im te BOEIPA thangpomnah a bae dongah he cingmai hmai ah thohtat ham neh pai ham khaw khosoih rhoek loh noeng uh pawh.

Nor could the priests stand and minister by reason of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.
