Anden Krønikebog 5
1 Saa blev alt Arbejdet færdigt, som Salomo lod gøre til Herrens Hus; og Salomo førte det ind, som David, hans Fader, havde helliget, og Sølvet og Guldet og alle Redskaberne lagde han i Guds Hus's Skatkammer.
So all the work which Solomon did for the house of the Lord was complete. And Solomon took the holy things which David his father had given, the silver and the gold and all the vessels, and put them in the store-houses of the house of God.
2 Da samlede Salomo til Jerusalem de Ældste i Israel og alle Stammernes Øverster, Fyrster for Fædrenehusene iblandt Israels Børn, for at føre Herrens Pagts Ark op fra Davids Stad, det er Zion.
Then Solomon sent for all the responsible men of Israel, all the chiefs of the tribes and the heads of families of the children of Israel, to come to Jerusalem and take the ark of the Lord's agreement up out of the town of David, which is Zion.
3 Og alle Israels Mænd samledes til Kongen paa Højtiden, det er, i den syvende Maaned.
And all the men of Israel came together to the king at the feast in the seventh month.
4 Og alle Israels Ældste kom, og Leviterne bare Arken.
All the responsible men of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.
5 Og de førte Arken op tillige med Forsamlingens Paulun og alle de hellige Redskaber, som vare i Paulunet; Præsterne, Leviterne, førte dem op.
They took up the ark and the Tent of meeting and all the holy vessels which were in the Tent; all these the priests, the Levites, took up.
6 Men Kong Salomo og al Israels Menighed, de, som vare samlede om ham foran Arken, ofrede smaat Kvæg og stort Kvæg, som ikke kunde tælles eller regnes for Mangfoldighed.
And King Solomon and all the men of Israel who had come together there with him, were before the ark, making offerings of sheep and oxen more than might be numbered.
7 Saa førte Præsterne Herrens Pagts Ark til dens Sted, ind i Koret udi Huset i det Allerhelligste, hen under Kerubernes Vinger.
And the priests took the ark of the Lord's agreement and put it in its place, in the inner room of the house, in the most holy place, under the wings of the winged ones.
8 Og Keruberne udbredte Vingerne over Arkens Sted, og Keruberne dækkede over Arken og over dens Stænger oventil.
For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.
9 Og man drog Stængerne langt ud, saa at man saa Knapperne paa Arkens Stænger lige for Koret, men udentil saa man dem ikke; og den blev der indtil denne Dag.
The rods were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place before the inmost room; but they were not seen from outside; and there they are to this day.
10 Der var intet i Arken uden de to Tavler, som Mose lagde deri ved Horeb, der Herren gjorde Pagt med Israels Børn, der de droge ud af Ægypten.
Nothing was in the ark but the two flat stones which Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made an agreement with the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt.
11 Og det skete, der Præsterne gik ud af det Hellige (thi alle Præster, som fandtes, havde helliget sig, saa at de ikke holdt sig efter Skifterne;
Now when the priests had come out of the holy place, (for all the priests who were present had made themselves holy, not keeping to their divisions;
12 og Leviterne, Sangerne, alle sam men, baade Asaf, Heman og Jeduthun og deres Børn og deres Brødre, iførte kosteligt Linklæde, med Cymbler og med Psaltre og Harper, stode Østen ved Alteret og hos dem hundrede og tyve Præster, som blæste i Basunerne);
And the Levites who made the music, all of them, Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and brothers, robed in fair linen, were in their places with their brass and corded instruments at the east side of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests blowing horns; )
13 ja det skete, der de som een Mand blæste i Basuner og sang for enstemmigt at lade sig høre med Lov og Tak til Herren, og der de opløftede Røsten med Basuner og med Cymbler og med andre Sanginstrumenter, og der de lovede Herren, at han er god, og hans Miskundhed er evindelig: Da blev Huset i Herrens Hus fyldt med en Sky.
And when the players on horns, and those who made melody in song, with one voice were sounding the praise and glory of the Lord; with loud voices and with wind instruments, and brass and corded instruments of music, praising the Lord and saying, He is good; his mercy is unchanging for ever: then the house was full of the cloud of the glory of the Lord,
14 Og Præsterne kunde ikke staa og gøre Tjeneste for Skyen; thi Herrens Herlighed fyldte Guds Hus.
So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud; for the house of God was full of the glory of the Lord.
