2 Istwa 5

1 Konsa, tout travay ke Salomon te acheve pou kay SENYÈ a te fini. Epi Salomon te mennen fè antre tout bagay ke David, papa li, te dedye yo, menm ajan avèk lò a, tout zouti yo e li te mete yo nan trezò lakay Bondye a.

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, he put among the treasures of the house of God.

2 Apre, Salomon te rasanble nan Jérusalem ansyen Israël yo, ak tout chèf a tribi yo, chèf lakay papa zansèt a fis Israël yo, pou mennen fè monte lach SENYÈ a sòti andeyò vil David la, ki se Sion.

Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from the city of David, which [is] Zion.

3 Tout mesye Israël yo te rasanble yo kote wa a nan fèt ki te nan setyèm mwa a.

Wherefore all the men of Israel assembled themselves to the king in the feast which [was] in the seventh month.

4 Konsa, tout ansyen Israël yo te vini. Levit yo te leve pran lach la.

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

5 Yo te mennen lach la fè l monte avèk tant asanble a ak tout zouti sen ki te nan tant yo. Prèt Levit yo te mennen fè yo monte.

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.

6 Epi Wa Salomon avèk tout asanble Israël ki te rasanble avèk li devan lach yo, t ap fè sakrifis a yon tèlman gran kantite mouton avèk bèf ke yo pa t kab kontwole ni konte.

Also king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel that were assembled to him before the ark, sacrificed sheep and oxen, which could not be told nor numbered for multitude.

7 Answit, prèt yo te mennen lach akò a SENYÈ a antre nan plas li, anndan sanktyè enteryè kay la, nan kote ki sen pase tout lòt yo anba zèl a cheriben yo.

And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD to its place, to the oracle of the house, into the most holy [place], [even] under the wings of the cherubim:

8 Paske cheriben yo te lonje zèl yo sou plas lach la, jiskaske cheriben yo te fè yon kouvèti sou lach la avèk poto li yo.

For the cherubim spread forth [their] wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark, and the staffs of it above.

9 Poto yo te tèlman long ke pwent poto a lach yo te vizib devan sanktyè enteryè a, men yo pa t kab wè pa deyò. Epi yo toujou la jis rive jodi a.

And they drew out the staffs [of the ark], that the ends of the staffs were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without. And there it is to this day.

10 Pa t gen anyen nan lach la sof ke de tablo ke Moïse te mete ladann nan Horeb yo, kote SENYÈ a te fè yon akò avèk fis Israël yo lè yo te sòti an Égypte la.

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

11 Lè prèt yo te vin sòti nan kote pi sen pase tout lòt kote yo, (paske tout prèt ki te prezan yo te deja sanktifye yo menm san kontwole divizyon sèvis pa yo),

And it came to pass, when the priests had come out of the holy [place]: (for all the priests [that were] present were sanctified, [and] did not [then] wait by course:

12 epi tout chantè Levit yo, Asaph, Héman, Jeduthun, fis pa yo avèk fanmi pa yo, te abiye an twal len fen, avèk senbal, ap, gita, yo te kanpe nan kote lès a otèl la e avèk yo, san-ven prèt ki t ap soufle twonpèt yo,

Also the Levites [who 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 a hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets: )

13 ansanm lè mesye twonpèt yo avèk chantè yo te gen pou fè son yo tande ansanm tankou yon sèl vwa pou lwanj avèk glwa SENYÈ a, lè yo te leve vwa yo akonpanye patwonpèt avèk senbal ak enstriman mizik yo, lè yo te louwe SENYÈ a e te di: “Paske Li bon, lanmou dous Li a dire pou tout tan!” Konsa, lakay SENYÈ a te ranpli avèk yon nwaj,

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 [endureth] for ever: that [then] the house was filled with a cloud, [even] the house of the LORD;

14 jiskaske prèt yo pa t kab kanpe pou fè sèvis akoz nwaj la. Paske glwa SENYÈ a te ranpli kay Bondye a.

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.
