< 2 Chronicles 5 >

1 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.
Naʻe pehē ʻa hono fakaʻosi ʻae ngāue kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe Solomone maʻae fale ʻo Sihova: pea naʻe ʻomi ki loto ʻe Solomone ʻae ngaahi meʻa naʻe fakatapui ʻe heʻene tamai ko Tevita: pea mo e siliva, mo e koula, pea mo e nāunau kotoa pē, naʻa ne ʻai fakataha mo e ngaahi koloa ʻoe fale ʻoe ʻOtua.
2 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.
Pea naʻe toki fakataha ʻe Solomone ki Selūsalema ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, pea mo e ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he ngaahi tamai ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ke ʻohake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova mei he Kolo ʻo Tevita, ʻaia ko Saione.
3 And all the men of Israel came to the king in the solemn day of the seventh month.
Ko ia naʻe fakataha mai ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli ki he tuʻi ʻi he kātoanga naʻe fai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina.
4 And when all the ancients of Israel were come, the Levites took up the ark,
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli: pea naʻe hiki hake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻe he kau Livai.
5 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.
Pea naʻa nau ʻohake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava, mo e fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakatahaʻanga, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa tapu naʻe ʻi he fale fehikitaki, naʻe ʻohake ia ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki pea mo e kau Livai.
6 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.
Pea ko Solomone foki ko e tuʻi, pea mo e fakataha kātoa ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaia naʻe fakataha mai kiate ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava, naʻa [nau ]feilaulau ʻaki ʻae fanga sipi mo e fanga pulu, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai faʻa lauʻi ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene lahi ʻaupito.
7 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:
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova ki hono potu, ki he folofolaʻanga ʻi he fale, ki he potu toputapu ʻaupito, ʻi he lolo kapakau ʻoe ongo selupi:
8 So that the cherubims spread their wings over the place, in which the ark was set, and covered the ark itself and its staves.
He naʻe malofa atu ʻe he ongo selupi ʻa hona kapakau ki ʻolunga ʻi he potu ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava, pea naʻe fakamalumalu ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava mo hono kau haʻamo ʻe he ongo selupi mei ʻolunga.
9 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.
Pea naʻa nau toʻo mai ʻae kau haʻamo, koeʻuhi ke hā mai ʻae mui haʻamo mei he puha ʻoe fuakava ʻi he ʻao ʻoe folofolaʻanga: ka naʻe ʻikai ha ia mei tuʻa. Pea ʻoku ʻi ai pe ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
10 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.
Naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻi he puha ʻoe fuakava, ka ko e ongo [maka ]lafalafa ʻaia naʻe ʻai ki ai ʻe Mōsese ʻi Holepi, ko e potu naʻe fai ai ʻe Sihova ha fuakava mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi heʻenau haʻu mei ʻIsipite.
11 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, )
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hū mai ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mei he potu toputapu: (he naʻe fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻae kau taulaʻeiki kotoa pē naʻe ʻi ai, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau tali fakalakanga:
12 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.
Mo e kau Livai foki naʻe fai ʻae hiva, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻo ʻAsafi, mo Hemani, mo Situtuni, mo ʻenau ngaahi foha mo honau kāinga, naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae tupenu lelei mo hinehina, mo [nau ]toʻo ʻae ngaahi meʻa pakihi, mo e ngaahi ūtete, mo e ngaahi haʻape, naʻa nau tuʻu ki he potu fakahahake ʻoe feilaulauʻanga, pea naʻe tuʻu fakataha mo kinautolu ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻe toko teau ma uofulu naʻe ifi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea: )
13 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.
Naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene kau taha ʻae kau ifi meʻalea mo e kau hiva, ke nau leʻo taha pe ʻi he hiva mo e fakafetaʻi kia Sihova: pea ʻi heʻenau hiki hake honau leʻo ʻi he meʻalea mo e ngaahi meʻa pakihi, mo e ngaahi meʻa fasi hiva mo nau hiva kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “He koeʻuhi ʻoku angalelei ia: pea ʻoku tuʻumaʻu ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa:” naʻe toki fakafonu ai ʻae fale ʻaki ʻae ʻao, ʻio, ʻae fale ʻo Sihova:
14 Nor could the priests stand and minister by reason of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.
Pea ko ia naʻe ʻikai faʻa tuʻu ai ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ke fai ʻae tauhi koeʻuhi ko e ʻao: he ko e nāunau ʻo Sihova naʻe fakafonu ʻaki ʻae fale ʻoe ʻOtua.
