Kronika 2 5

1 Esi Solomo wu dɔ siwo katã, hlɔ̃awo ƒe tatɔwo wòle be wòawɔ le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ ŋu nu la, etsɔ sika kple klosalo kple xɔmenu siwo katã ŋu fofoa, David kɔ la da ɖe Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe nudzraɖoƒewo.

Thus all the work that Solomon wrought for the house of Jehovah was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, even the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels, and put them in the treasuries of the house of God.

2 Azɔ la, Fia Solomo na Israel ƒe kplɔlawo katã, hlɔ̃memegãwo kple aƒekɔwo ƒe tatɔwo kpe ta ɖe Yerusalem hena Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la tsɔtsɔ tso agbadɔ la me le David ƒe Du si wogayɔna be Zion la me yi eƒe nɔƒe yeye la le gbedoxɔ la me.

Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers’ [houses] of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the city of David, which is Zion.

3 Israel ŋutsuwo katã va ƒo ƒu ɖe fia la gbɔ le Agbadɔmeŋkekenyui la ɖuɣi le ɣleti adrelia me.

And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king at the feast, which was [in] the seventh month.

4 Esi Israelviwo ƒe ametsitsiwo katã va ɖo la, Levitɔwo tsɔ nubablaɖaka la,

And all the elders of Israel came: and the Levites took up the ark;

5 eye wotsɔ nubablaɖaka la kple agbadɔ la kple nu kɔkɔewo siwo katã nɔ eme. Nunɔla siwo nye Levitɔwo lae tsɔ wo;

and they brought up the ark, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; these did the priests the Levites bring up.

6 eye Fia Solomo kple Israel ha blibo si ƒo xlãe la nɔ nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ eye wotsɔ alẽ kple nyitsu geɖe siwo womate ŋu xlẽ o la sa vɔe.

And king Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, were before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be counted nor numbered for multitude.

7 Emegbe la, nunɔlaawo tsɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va da ɖe enɔƒe le gbedoxɔ la ƒe kɔkɔe ƒe emetɔ si nye Kɔkɔeƒe Ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me eye wokɔe da ɖe kerubiawo ƒe aʋalawo te.

And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

8 Kerubiawo keke woƒe aʋalawo ɖe nubablaɖaka la ƒe nɔƒe dzi eye wotsyɔ nubablaɖaka la kple etsɔkpoawo dzi.

For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staves thereof above.

9 Kpo siawo didi ale gbegbe be, woƒe nugbɔwo didi gbɔ aɖaka la ŋu, woate ŋu akpɔ wo tso xɔ emetɔ, Kɔkɔeƒe ƒe Kɔkɔeƒe la me, gake womate ŋu akpɔ wo le Kɔkɔeƒe la godo o. Wogale afi ma va se ɖe egbe.

And the staves were so long 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.

10 Naneke menɔ nubablaɖaka la me o negbe kpe kpakpa eve siwo Mose tsɔ de eme le Horeb to la gbɔ, esi Yehowa bla nu kple Israelviwo esi woʋu tso Egipte la ko.

There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put [there] at Horeb, when Jehovah made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

11 Nunɔlaawo doa go le Kɔkɔƒe la me. Nunɔla siwo katã nɔ afi ma la ƒe habɔbɔwo katã kɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu.

And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place (for all the priests that were present had sanctified themselves, and did not keep their courses;

12 Levitɔ siwo nye haƒolawo, Asaf, Heman, Yedutun kple wo viŋutsuwo kple woƒe ƒometɔwo nɔ vɔsamlekpui la ƒe ɣedzeƒe, wodo aklalawu eye wonɔ gakogoewo, saŋkuwo kple kasaŋkuwo ƒom. Nunɔla alafa ɖeka blaeve kpe ɖe wo ŋu eye wonɔ kpẽwo kum.

also the Levites who were the singers, all of them, even Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and their brethren, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets);

13 Kpẽkulawo kple hadzilawo lé hawo ɖe gbe ɖeka me be woatsɔ kafukafu kple akpedada na Yehowa. Kpẽwo, gakogoewo kple haƒonu bubuwo kpena ɖe hadzilawo ŋu, wokɔa gbe dzi hekafua Yehowa eye wodzia ha be, “Eƒe dɔme nyo; eye eƒe amenuveve li tegbee.” Tete lilikpo aɖe yɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me,

it came to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking Jehovah; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised Jehovah, [saying], For he is good; for his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever; that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of Jehovah,

14 eye nunɔlaawo magate ŋu awɔ woƒe dɔ o, le lilikpo la ta elabena Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ gbedoxɔ la me.

so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of Jehovah filled the house of God.
