2 Ihe E Mere 5
1 Mgbe a rụzuru ọrụ niile nke eze Solomọn nwere ịrụ maka ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị ahụ, o webatara ihe niile Devid bụ nna ya doro nsọ nʼime ya, ya bụ ọlaọcha, ọlaedo na ngwongwo ndị ọzọ niile. O tinyere ha nʼụlọakụ dị nʼụlọnsọ Chineke.
Thus all the work that Solomon made for the house of Yhwh 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 Mgbe ahụ, Solomọn kpọkọtara ndị okenye Izrel niile, na ndịisi ebo Izrel niile, na ndịisi ezinaụlọ Izrel niile na Jerusalem, maka ị site na Zayọn, bụ obodo Devid bugota igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị.
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 Yhwh out of the city of David, which is Zion.
3 Ndị Izrel niile gbakọtara bịakwute eze nʼoge a na-eme mmemme nʼọnwa Etanim, nke bụ ọnwa asaa nʼafọ.
Wherefore all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king in the feast which was in the seventh month.
4 Mgbe ndị okenye Izrel niile bịarutere, ndị Livayị buliri igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ.
And all the elders of Israel came; and the Levites took up the ark.
5 Ha bugotara igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, ya na ụlọ nzute, na ngwongwo niile dị nsọ dị nʼime ya. Ndị nchụaja bụ ndị Livayị buliri ha elu.
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 Eze Solomọn na ọgbakọ Izrel niile, bụ ndị zukọtara nʼebe ọ nọ, nọ nʼihu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, na-achụ aja ọtụtụ atụrụ na ọtụtụ ehi nke a na-apụghị ịgụta ọnụ maọbụ gbakọta ọnụọgụgụ ha nʼihi ịba ụba.
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.
7 Ndị nchụaja bubatara igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ nʼime ime ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, nʼime Ebe Kachasị Nsọ, dọba ya nʼokpuru nku cherubim ahụ.
And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Yhwh unto his place, to the oracle of the house, into the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubims:
8 Cherubim ndị ahụ gbasara nku ha nʼelu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, kpuchie ya na okporo osisi ndị ahụ e ji ebu ya.
For the cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the staves thereof above.
9 Okporo osisi ndị a dị oke ogologo, na isi ha sitere nʼigbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ na-apụta, na e nwere ike ị site nʼihu ime ime ebe nsọ ahụ hụ ha anya, ma onye na-anọghị nʼEbe Nsọ ahụ adịghị ahụ ha. Ha ka dịkwa nʼebe ahụ ruo taa
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.
10 O nweghị ihe dị nʼime igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, karịakwa mbadamba nkume abụọ ahụ Mosis tinyere nʼime ya nʼugwu Horeb, nʼebe Onyenwe anyị na ụmụ Izrel gbara ndụ, mgbe ha si nʼala Ijipt pụta.
There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put therein at Horeb, when Yhwh made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.
11 Mgbe ndị nchụaja sitere nʼEbe Nsọ Kachasị Ebe Nsọ pụta, nʼihi na ndị nchụaja ahụ niile doro onwe ha nsọ nʼagbanyeghị usuu nke onye ọbụla nʼime ha si pụta.
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 Ma ndị Livayị bụ ndị ọbụ abụ, ya bụ Asaf, Heman, Jedutun na ụmụ ha ndị ikom na ndị ikwu ha guzoro onwe ha nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ nke ebe ịchụ aja. Ha yi uwe ezi akwa ọcha ma na-akpọ ụbọ akwara, na-akụkwa ogene ọla. Ndị nchụaja dị otu narị na iri abụọ nʼọnụọgụgụ. Ndị na-afụ opi sokwa ha.
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: )
13 Ndị ọbụ abụ ahụ na ndị na-afụ opi jikọrọ onwe ha ọnụ were otu olu bụkuo Onyenwe anyị abụ ekele na otuto. Ndị na-afụ opi, na ndị na-akụ ọla na-ada ụda, na ndị ji ngwa egwu ndị ọzọ sonyeere ha, welie olu ha elu too Onyenwe anyị nʼabụ sị: “Nʼihi na Ọ dị mma Ịhụnanya ya na-adị ruo ebighị ebi.” Mgbe ahụ igwe ojii jupụtara nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị,
It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking Yhwh; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised Yhwh, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of Yhwh;
14 nke mere na ndị nchụaja enwekwaghị ike jee ozi ha, nʼihi igwe ojii ahụ, nʼihi na ebube Onyenwe anyị jupụtara nʼime ụlọnsọ Chineke.
So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of Yhwh had filled the house of God.
