2 Chronicles 5
1 Thus all the work that Solomon made for the house of the LORD was finished: and Solomon brought in all the things that David his father had dedicated; and the silver, and the gold, and all the instruments, put he among the treasures of the house of God.
Bw’atyo Sulemaani n’amaliriza omulimu gwonna ogwa yeekaalu ya Mukama. N’alyoka aleeta ebintu kitaawe Dawudi bye yawonga, effeeza ne zaabu n’ebintu ebirala byonna ebyole, n’abiteeka mu mawanika ga yeekaalu ya Katonda.
2 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.
Awo Sulemaani n’akuŋŋaanya abakadde ba Isirayiri, n’abakulu b’ebika, n’abakulu b’ennyumba za bajjajja b’abantu ba Isirayiri bagende baleete essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Mukama okuva mu Sayuuni, ekibuga kya Dawudi.
3 Wherefore all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king in the feast which was in the seventh month.
Abasajja bonna aba Isirayiri ne bakuŋŋaanira mu maaso ga kabaka mu kiseera eky’embaga mu mwezi ogw’omusanvu.
4 And all the elders of Israel came; and the Levites took up the ark.
Abakadde bonna aba Isirayiri bwe baatuuka, Abaleevi ne basitula essanduuko,
5 And they brought up the ark, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle, these did the priests and the Levites bring up.
ne bagireeta, n’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, n’ebintu byonna ebitukuvu ebyali mu weema. Bakabona n’Abaleevi be baabisitula.
6 Also king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel that were assembled unto him before the ark, sacrificed sheep and oxen, which could not be told nor numbered for multitude.
Awo kabaka Sulemaani n’ekibiina kyonna ekya Isirayiri, abaali bakuŋŋaanye nga bamwetoolodde, nga bali mu maaso g’essanduuko, ne bawaayo ssaddaaka ez’endiga n’ente, ezitaabalibwa muwendo.
7 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto his place, to the oracle of the house, into the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubims:
Awo bakabona ne baleeta essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Mukama munda mu kifo kyayo mu watukuvu wa yeekaalu, mu Kifo Ekitukuvu Ennyo, ne bagiteeka wansi w’ebiwaawaatiro bya bakerubi.
8 For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the staves thereof above.
Bakerubi baayanjalanga ebiwaawaatiro byabwe okubuna ekifo eky’essanduuko, ne babikkanga essanduuko n’emisituliro gyayo.
9 And they drew out the staves of the ark, that the ends of the staves were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without. And there it is unto this day.
Era emisituliro gyali miwanvu nnyo nga n’okulengerebwa girengerebwa okuva mu watukuvu, naye nga tegirabika ng’omuntu asinzidde ebweru; era ekyali eyo ne leero.
10 There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put therein at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.
Essanduuko yalimu ebipande Musa bye yateekamu nga ali ku Kolebu, Mukama gye yakolera endagaano n’Abayisirayiri, bwe baali bavudde mu Misiri.
11 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place: (for all the priests that were present were sanctified, and did not then wait by course:
Awo bakabona bonna ne bava mu Kifo Ekitukuvu. Bonna abaaliwo baali beetukuzizza, obutayawula mu bibiina byabwe.
12 Also the Levites which were the singers, all of them of Asaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, being arrayed in white linen, having cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets: )
Abaleevi bonna abaali abayimbi, ng’omwo mwe muli Asafu, Kemani, Yedusuni ne batabani baabwe n’ab’eŋŋanda zaabwe nga bambadde bafuta ennungi, nga bakutte ebitaasa, n’entongooli, n’ennanga, ne bayimirira ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olw’ekyoto, wamu ne bakabona kikumi mu abiri abaafuuwanga amakondeere.
13 It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endures for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD;
Awo abaafuuwanga amakondeere n’abayimbi ne beegattira wamu mu ddoboozi ery’awamu ne batendereza era ne beebaza Mukama. Ne batendereza Mukama nga bafuuwa amakondeere, nga bakuba n’ebitaasa, n’ebivuga ebirala nga bayimba nti, “Mulungi, kubanga okwagala kwe okwenkalakkalira kubeerera emirembe n’emirembe.” Awo yeekaalu ya Mukama n’ejjula ekire.
14 So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of God.
Bakabona ne batasobola kukola mulimu gwabwe ogw’obuweereza olw’ekire, kubanga ekitiibwa kya Mukama kyajjula yeekaalu ya Mukama.
