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.
Intulit igitur Salomon omnia, quæ voverat David pater suus, argentum, et aurum, et universa vasa posuit in thesauris domus Dei.
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.
Post quæ congregavit maiores natu Israel, et cunctos principes tribuum, et capita familiarum de filiis Israel in Ierusalem, ut adducerent arcam fœderis Domini de Civitate David, quæ est Sion.
3 And all Israel were assembled [to] the king in the feast, this [is] the seventh month.
Venerunt itaque ad regem omnes viri Israel in die sollemni mensis septimi.
4 And all the elders of Israel came; and all the Levites took up the ark,
Cumque venissent cuncti seniorum Israel, portaverunt Levitæ arcam,
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.
et intulerunt eam, et omnem paraturam tabernaculi. Porro vasa sanctuarii, quæ erant in tabernaculo, portaverunt Sacerdotes cum Levitis.
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.
Rex autem Salomon, et universus cœtus Israel, et omnes, qui fuerunt congregati ante arcam, immolabant arietes, et boves absque ullo numero: tanta enim erat multitudo victimarum.
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.
Et intulerunt Sacerdotes arcam fœderis Domini in locum suum, id est, ad oraculum templi, in Sancta sanctorum subter alas cherubim:
8 And the cherubs stretched out their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubs covered the ark, and its staves above.
ita ut cherubim expanderent alas suas super locum, in quo posita erat arca, et ipsam arcam tegerent cum vectibus suis.
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.
Vectium autem, quibus portabatur arca, quia paululum longiores erant, capita parebant ante oraculum: si vero quis paululum fuisset extrinsecus, eos videre non poterat. Fuit itaque arca ibi usque in præsentem diem.
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.
Nihilque erat aliud in arca, nisi duæ tabulæ, quas posuerat Moyses in Horeb, quando legem dedit Dominus filiis Israel egredientibus ex Ægypto.
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, )
Egressis autem sacerdotibus de Sanctuario (omnes enim Sacerdotes, qui ibi potuerant inveniri, sanctificati sunt: nec adhuc in illo tempore vices, et ministeriorum ordo inter eos divisus erat)
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.
tam Levitæ quam cantores, id est, et qui sub Asaph erant, et qui sub Eman, et qui sub Idithun, filii, et fratres eorum vestiti byssinis, cymbalis, et psalteriis, et citharis concrepabant, stantes ad Orientalem plagam altaris, et cum eis sacerdotes centum viginti canentes tubis.
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.
Igitur cunctis pariter, et tubis, et voce, et cymbalis, et organis, et diversi generis musicorum concinentibus, et vocem in sublime tollentibus; longe sonitus audiebatur, ita ut cum Dominum laudare cœpissent et dicere: Confitemini Domino quoniam bonus, quoniam in æternum misericordia eius; impleretur domus Dei nube,
14 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.
nec possent Sacerdotes stare et ministrare propter caliginem. Compleverat enim gloria Domini domum Dei.
