2 Ljetopisa 5
1 Tako bi priveden kraju posao što ga Salomon obavi za Dom Jahvin. Salomon unese sve svete darove oca svoga Davida - srebro, zlato i sve posuđe - i stavi ih u riznicu Božjega Doma.
When all the work that Solomon did for the house of Yahweh was completed, Solomon brought in the things that David, his father, had set apart for this purpose, including the silver, the gold, and all the furnishings—he placed them into the treasuries of the house of God.
2 Tada Salomon sazva u Jeruzalem sve Izraelove starješine, knezove plemenske i glavare obiteljske, da se prenese Kovčeg saveza Jahvina iz Davidova grada, to jest sa Siona.
Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, all the heads of the tribes, and the leaders of the families of the people of Israel, in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh from the city of David, that is, Zion.
3 Svi se ljudi Izraelovi sabraše pred kraljem na blagdan što je u sedmom mjesecu.
All the men of Israel assembled before the king at the feast, which was in the seventh month.
4 Kad se sastadoše sve Izraelove starješine, leviti ponesoše Kovčeg
All the elders of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.
5 i Šator sastanka sa svim posvećenim priborom što bješe u Šatoru; svećenici ih i leviti prenesoše.
They brought up the ark, the tent of meeting, and all the holy furnishings that were in the tent. The priests who were of the tribe of Levi brought these things up.
6 Potom kralj Salomon i sva izraelska zajednica što se sabra k njemu žrtvovaše pred Kovčegom toliko ovaca i goveda da se ne mogahu ni prebrojiti ni procijeniti.
King Solomon and all the assembly of Israel came together before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted.
7 Svećenici donesoše Kovčeg saveza Jahvina na njegovo mjesto, u Debir Doma, to jest u Svetinju nad svetinjama, pod krila kerubinÄa.
The priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to its place, into the inner room of the house, to the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim.
8 Kerubini su imali raširena krila nad mjestom gdje stajaše Kovčeg i zaklanjahu Kovčeg i njegove motke.
For the cherubim spread out their wings over the place of the ark, and they covered the ark and the poles by which it was carried.
9 Motke su bile tako dugačke da su im se krajevi vidjeli iz Svetišta nasuprot Debiru, ali se nisu vidjele izvana i ondje stoje do dana današnjega.
The poles were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place in front of the inner room, but they could not be seen from outside. They are there to this day.
10 U Kovčegu nije bilo ništa, osim dviju ploča koje metnu Mojsije na Horebu, gdje Jahve sklopi Savez s Izraelcima pošto iziđoše iz Egipta.
There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets that Moses had put there at Horeb, when Yahweh made a covenant with the people of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.
11 Svi svećenici izađoše iz Svetišta, jer su se svi nazočni svećenici posvetili bez obzira na redove.
It came about that the priests came out of the holy place. All the priests who were present had consecrated themselves to Yahweh, not ordering themselves according to their divisions.
12 Svi levitski pjevači, Asaf, Heman, Jedutun sa sinovima i braćom, stajahu obučeni u bÓez, s cimbalima, harfama i citrama, istočno od žrtvenika, a s njima sto i dvadeset svećenika koji su trubili u trube.
Also the Levites who were the singers, all of them, including Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and brothers, clothed in fine linen and playing cymbals, harps, and lyres, stood at the east end of the altar. With them were 120 priests blowing trumpets.
13 I dok su trubili i pjevali složno kao jedan i jednoglasno hvalili i slavili Jahvu, podižući glas uz trube, cimbale i druga glazbala, hvaleći Jahvu “jer je dobar i jer je vječna njegova ljubav”, oblak ispuni Dom Jahvin.
It came about that the trumpeters and singers made music together, making one sound to be heard for praising and thanking Yahweh. They raised their voices with the trumpets and cymbals and other instruments, and they praised Yahweh. They sang, “For he is good, for his covenant loyalty endures forever.” Then the house, the house of Yahweh, was filled with a cloud.
14 Svećenici ne mogoše od oblaka nastaviti službe: slava Jahvina ispuni Božji dom!
The priests could not stand in order to serve because of the cloud, for the glory of Yahweh filled his house.
