< 2 Chronicles 5 >
1 Once Solomon had finished all the work on the house of the Lord, he brought the holy items of his father David had dedicated—the silver, the gold, and all the various worship items—and he placed them in the treasuries of God's Temple.
Tako je bilo vse delo, ki ga je Salomon naredil za Gospodovo hišo, končano. Salomon je prinesel noter vse stvari, ki jih je njegov oče David posvetil: srebro, zlato in vse priprave je položil med zaklade Božje hiše.
2 Then Solomon summoned to Jerusalem the elders of Israel—all the heads of the tribes and family leaders of the Israelites—to bring the Ark of the Lord's Agreement from Zion, the City of David.
Potem je Salomon zbral Izraelove starešine in vse poglavarje rodov, vodilne izmed očetov Izraelovih otrok v Jeruzalem, da prenesejo gor skrinjo Gospodove zaveze iz Davidovega mesta, ki je Sion.
3 So all the Israelites gathered to be with the king at the feast which is in the seventh month.
Zato so se vsi možje iz Izraela zbrali skupaj h kralju na prazniku, ki je bil v sedmem mesecu.
4 When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the Levites lifted up the Ark.
Prišli so vsi starešine Izraela in Lévijevci so dvignili skrinjo.
5 The priests and Levites brought up the Ark, the Tent of Meeting, were with him were there in front of the Ark.
Skrinjo so prinesli gor, šotorsko svetišče skupnosti in vse svete posode, ki so bile v šotorskem svetišču, te so duhovniki in Lévijevci prinesli gor.
6 They sacrificed so many sheep and cattle that they couldn't be counted!
Tudi kralj Salomon in vsa Izraelova skupnost, ki so bili zbrani k njemu pred skrinjo, so žrtvovali ovce in vole, ki jih zaradi množice ni bilo mogoče prešteti.
7 Then the priests brought the Ark of the Lord's Agreement and put placed it in the inner sanctuary of the Temple, the Most Holy Place, beneath the wings of the cherubim.
Duhovniki so prinesli skrinjo Gospodove zaveze na njen kraj, k oraklju hiše, v najsvetejši kraj, celo pod peruti kerubov.
8 The cherubim were spreading their wings over the place where the Ark was, so that the cherubim made a covering above the Ark and its poles.
Kajti keruba sta svoje peruti razširjala nad prostorom skrinje in keruba sta od zgoraj pokrivala skrinjo in njena drogova.
9 The poles were so long that their ends could be seen from the Holy Place in front of the Most Holy Place, but not from outside. They are there to this day.
Iz skrinje so izvlekli drogova, da sta bila konca drogov vidna od skrinje pred orakljem, toda od zunaj nista bila vidna. In tam je to do današnjega dne.
10 Inside the Ark there was nothing except the two stone tablets that Moses had placed in it at Mount Sinai, where the Lord had made an agreement with the people of Israel when they came out of Egypt.
V skrinji ni bilo ničesar razen dveh tabel, ki ju je Mojzes položil vanjo pri Horebu, ko je Gospod sklenil zavezo z Izraelovimi otroki, ko so prišli iz Egipta.
11 Then the priests came out of the Holy Place. All the priests who were there had purified themselves, whatever their division.
In pripetilo se je, ko so duhovniki prišli iz svetega kraja (kajti vsi duhovniki, ki so bili prisotni, so bili posvečeni in takrat niso potem čakali po skupini.
12 All the Levites who were singers—Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and relatives—stood on the east side of the altar. They were dressed in fine linen, striking cymbals, playing harps and lyres, and accompanied by one hundred and twenty priests sounding trumpets.
Tudi Lévijevci, ki so bili pevci, vsi izmed njih od Asáfa, Hemána in Jedutúna, z njihovimi sinovi in njihovimi brati, ki so bili oblečeni v belo platno ter imeli cimbale, plunke in harfe, so stali na vzhodnem koncu oltarja in z njimi sto dvajset duhovnikov, ki so trobili s trobentami.)
13 The trumpeters and singers joined together with one voice to praise and thank the Lord. Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals, and musical instruments, the singers raised their voices, praising the Lord: “For he is good; his trustworthy love lasts forever.” Then the Temple, the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud.
Zgodilo se je celo, ko so bili trobentači in pevci kakor eno, da naredijo en zvok, da se ga sliši v hvaljenju in zahvaljevanju Gospodu, in ko so povzdignili svoj glas s trobentami, cimbalami in glasbenimi instrumenti ter hvalili Gospoda, rekoč: »Ker je dober, kajti njegovo usmiljenje traja večno, « da je bila potem hiša, napolnjena z oblakom, torej Gospodova hiša,
14 The priests could not stand up to continue with the service because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord had filled the Temple of God.
tako da duhovniki zaradi oblaka niso mogli stati, da bi služili, kajti Gospodova slava je napolnila Božjo hišo.
