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.
And so was ended all the work which Solomon made for the house of the Lord; and Solomon brought in the things sanctified by David his father; and the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels he placed in the treasuries 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 did Solomon assemble the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the divisions of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord 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.
And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king at the feast which is [in] the seventh month.
4 Mgbe ndị okenye Izrel niile bịarutere, ndị Livayị buliri igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ.
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.
And king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel that were assembled unto him were before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, which could not be numbered nor told 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 the Lord unto its place, into the debir of the house, into the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim.
8 Cherubim ndị ahụ gbasara nku ha nʼelu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, kpuchie ya na okporo osisi ndị ahụ e ji ebu ya.
And the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its staves from 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 had made the staves so long that the ends of the staves were seen [standing out] from the ark in the front of the debir; but they were not seen without; and they have remained there until 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 had placed [therein] at Horeb, where the Lord 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 had sanctified themselves, the divisions not having been observed; —
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.
And the Levites the singers, all together, of Assaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, arrayed in white linen, having cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east side of the altar, and with them were one hundred and twenty priests blowing on 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,
And it came thus 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 [accompanied] with trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and in praising the Lord, For he is good; because unto everlasting endureth his kindness: that the house, even the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud;
14 nke mere na ndị nchụaja enwekwaghị ike jee ozi ha, nʼihi igwe ojii ahụ, nʼihi na ebube Onyenwe anyị jupụtara nʼime ụlọnsọ Chineke.
And the priests were not able to stand to minister because of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.
