< Chronicles II 5 >

1 And Solomon brought in the holy things of his father David, the silver, and the gold, and the [other] vessels, and put them in the treasury of the house of the Lord.
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.
2 Then Solomon assembled all the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, [even] the leaders of the families of the children of Israel, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, —this [is] Sion.
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.
3 And all Israel were assembled [to] the king in the feast, this [is] the seventh month.
Og alle Israels Mænd samledes til Kongen paa Højtiden, det er, i den syvende Maaned.
4 And all the elders of Israel came; and all the Levites took up the ark,
Og alle Israels Ældste kom, og Leviterne bare Arken.
5 and the tabernacle of witness, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle; and the priests and the Levites brought it up.
Og de førte Arken op tillige med Forsamlingens Paulun og alle de hellige Redskaber, som vare i Paulunet; Præsterne, Leviterne, førte dem op.
6 And king Solomon, and all the elders of Israel, and the religious of them, and they of them that were gathered before the ark, [were] sacrificing calves and sheep, which could not be numbered or reckoned for multitude.
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.
7 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the house, [even] into the holy of holies, under the wings of the cherubs.
Saa førte Præsterne Herrens Pagts Ark til dens Sted, ind i Koret udi Huset i det Allerhelligste, hen under Kerubernes Vinger.
8 And the cherubs stretched out their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubs covered the ark, and its staves above.
Og Keruberne udbredte Vingerne over Arkens Sted, og Keruberne dækkede over Arken og over dens Stænger oventil.
9 And the staves projected, and the heads of the staves were seen from the holy place in front of the oracle, they were not seen without: and there they were to this day.
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.
10 There was nothing in the ark except the two tables which Moses placed [there] in Choreb, which God gave in covenant with the children of Israel, when they went out of the land of Egypt.
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.
11 And it came to pass, when the priests when out of the holy place, (for all the priests that were found were sanctified, they were not [then] arranged according to their daily course, )
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;
12 that all the singing Levites [assigned] to the sons of Asaph, to Aeman, to Idithun, and to his sons, and to his brethren, of them that were clothed in linen garments, with cymbals and lutes and harps, [were] standing before the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests, blowing trumpets.
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);
13 And there was one voice in the trumpeting and in the psalm-singing, and in the loud utterance with one voice to give thanks and praise the Lord; and when they raised their voice together with trumpets and cymbals, and instruments of music, and said, Give thanks to the Lord, for [it is] good, for his mercy [endures] for ever: —then the house was filled with the cloud of the glory of the Lord.
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.
14 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.
Og Præsterne kunde ikke staa og gøre Tjeneste for Skyen; thi Herrens Herlighed fyldte Guds Hus.
