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.
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.
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 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.
3 Israel ŋutsuwo katã va ƒo ƒu ɖe fia la gbɔ le Agbadɔmeŋkekenyui la ɖuɣi le ɣleti adrelia me.
So all the Israelites gathered to be with the king at the feast which is in the seventh month.
4 Esi Israelviwo ƒe ametsitsiwo katã va ɖo la, Levitɔwo tsɔ nubablaɖaka la,
When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the Levites lifted 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;
The priests and Levites brought up the Ark, the Tent of Meeting, were with him were there in front of the Ark.
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.
They sacrificed so many sheep and cattle that they couldn't be counted!
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.
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.
8 Kerubiawo keke woƒe aʋalawo ɖe nubablaɖaka la ƒe nɔƒe dzi eye wotsyɔ nubablaɖaka la kple etsɔkpoawo dzi.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
11 Nunɔlaawo doa go le Kɔkɔƒe la me. Nunɔla siwo katã nɔ afi ma la ƒe habɔbɔwo katã kɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu.
Then the priests came out of the Holy Place. All the priests who were there had purified themselves, whatever their division.
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.
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.
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,
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.
14 eye nunɔlaawo magate ŋu awɔ woƒe dɔ o, le lilikpo la ta elabena Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe yɔ gbedoxɔ la me.
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.
