II Oihanaalii 5

1 PELA i paa ai na mea a pau a Solomona i hana'i no ka hale o Iehova; a hookomo o Solomona i na mea a Davida, a kona makua kane i hoolaa ai, i ke kala a me ke gula, a me na ipu a pau, a waiho iho la iloko o ka waihonawaiwai o ke Akua.

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.

2 Alaila, hoakoakoa o Solomona i na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela, a me ka poe koikoi o na ohana, i na kaukaualii, a me na makualii no na mamo a Iseraela, i Ierusalema, e lawe i ka pahu o ka berita o Iehova mai ke kulanakauhale o Davida, mai Ziona mai.

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 out of the city of David, which is Zion.

3 A hoakoakoaia e ke alii na kanaka a pau loa o ka Iseraela i ka ahaaina i ka malama ehiku.

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

4 A hiki mai la ka poe lunakahiko o ka Iseraela, a hapai ae la na Levi i ka pahu.

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

5 Lawe lakou i ka pahu, a me ka halelewa o ke anainakanaka, a me na ipu hoano a pau, aia no iloko o ka halelewa; na ka poe kahuna, na ka Levi i lawe.

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 A o ke alii, o Solomona a me ka ahakanaka a pau o ka Iseraela i hoakoakoaia io na la imua o ka pa hu berita, mohai aku lakou i na hi pa, a me na bipi i pau ole i ka heluia no ka nui loa.

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 Alaila, hookomo ka poe kahuna i ka pahu berita o Iehova i kona wahi, i kahi hoano o ka hale, kahi hoano loa malalo iho o na eheu o na kerubima.

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

8 Ua hoholaia na eheu o na kerubima ma kahi o ka pahu, a ua uhi na kerubima i ka pahu, a me kona mau laau auamo maluna iho.

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 A huki mai lakou i na laau auamo, a ua ikea na poo o na laau auamo, mai ka pahu, a imua o kahi hoano, aole i ikeia mawaho. A aia no ia a hiki i neia la.

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 to this day.

10 Aohe mea e iloko o ka pahu, o na papa elua wale no a Mose i hookomo ai iloko ma Horeba, i ka manawa i hoohiki ai ke Akua me ka poe mamo a Iseraela i ko lakou hele ana mai Aigupita mai.

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.

11 A puka mai ka poe kahuna mai kahi hoano mai, (no ka mea ua huikalaia na kahuna a pau loa, aole lakou i ku papa ia manawa:

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:

12 A o na Levi, ka poe himeni a pau na Asapa, na Hemana, na Iedutuna, a me ka lakou poe keiki, a me ko lakou poe hoahanau i aahuia i ka ie olona maikai me na kimebala, a me na pesaleteri, a me na lira, ku lakou imua o ke kuahu, a me lakou pu na kahuna he haneri a me ka iwakalua, e hookani ana i na pu.)

Also the Levites which were the singers, all of them of Asaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brothers, 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: )

13 A lokahi ka manao o ka poe hookani i ka pu, a me ka poe himeni me ka leo hookahi, e hoolea aku, a e hoomaikai aku ia Iehova, a hookiekie lakou i ka leo me na pu, a me na kimebala a me na mea kani e ae; a i ko lakou hoolea ana'ku ia Iehova. No ka mea, ua maikai no ia, ua mau loa kona aloha: aia hoi, na hoopihaia ka hale i ke ao, ka hale o Iehova.

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;

14 Aole i hiki i na kahuna ke ku a e lawelawe imua o ke ao; no ka mea, ua piha ka hale o ke Akua i ka nani o Iehova.

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.
