2 Ebyomumirembe 5

1 Bw’atyo Sulemaani n’amaliriza omulimu gwonna ogwa yeekaalu ya Mukama. N’alyoka aleeta ebintu kitaawe Dawudi bye yawonga, effeeza ne zaabu n’ebintu ebirala byonna ebyole, n’abiteeka mu mawanika ga yeekaalu ya Katonda.

And all the work that Solomon made for the house of Jehovah is finished, and Solomon bringeth in the sanctified things of David his father, and the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels he hath put among the treasures of the house of God.

2 Awo Sulemaani n’akuŋŋaanya abakadde ba Isirayiri, n’abakulu b’ebika, n’abakulu b’ennyumba za bajjajja b’abantu ba Isirayiri bagende baleete essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Mukama okuva mu Sayuuni, ekibuga kya Dawudi.

Then doth Solomon assemble the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the city of David — it [is] Zion.

3 Abasajja bonna aba Isirayiri ne bakuŋŋaanira mu maaso ga kabaka mu kiseera eky’embaga mu mwezi ogw’omusanvu.

And assembled unto the king are all the men of Israel in the feast — it [is] the seventh month;

4 Abakadde bonna aba Isirayiri bwe baatuuka, Abaleevi ne basitula essanduuko,

and all the elders of Israel come in, and the Levites lift up the ark,

5 ne bagireeta, n’Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, n’ebintu byonna ebitukuvu ebyali mu weema. Bakabona n’Abaleevi be baabisitula.

and they bring up the ark, and the tent of meeting, and all the vessels of the sanctuary that [are] in the tent; brought them up have the priests, the Levites;

6 Awo kabaka Sulemaani n’ekibiina kyonna ekya Isirayiri, abaali bakuŋŋaanye nga bamwetoolodde, nga bali mu maaso g’essanduuko, ne bawaayo ssaddaaka ez’endiga n’ente, ezitaabalibwa muwendo.

and king Solomon and all the company of Israel who are convened unto him before the ark are sacrificing sheep and oxen, that are not counted nor numbered from multitude.

7 Awo bakabona ne baleeta essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Mukama munda mu kifo kyayo mu watukuvu wa yeekaalu, mu Kifo Ekitukuvu Ennyo, ne bagiteeka wansi w’ebiwaawaatiro bya bakerubi.

And the priests bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, unto the oracle of the house, unto the holy of holies, unto the place of the wings of the cherubs;

8 Bakerubi baayanjalanga ebiwaawaatiro byabwe okubuna ekifo eky’essanduuko, ne babikkanga essanduuko n’emisituliro gyayo.

and the cherubs are spreading out wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubs cover over the ark, and over its staves, from above;

9 Era emisituliro gyali miwanvu nnyo nga n’okulengerebwa girengerebwa okuva mu watukuvu, naye nga tegirabika ng’omuntu asinzidde ebweru; era ekyali eyo ne leero.

and they lengthen the staves, and the heads of the staves are seen out of the ark on the front of the oracle, and they are not seen without; and it is there unto this day.

10 Essanduuko yalimu ebipande Musa bye yateekamu nga ali ku Kolebu, Mukama gye yakolera endagaano n’Abayisirayiri, bwe baali bavudde mu Misiri.

There is nothing in the ark but the two tables that Moses gave in Horeb, where Jehovah covenanted with the sons of Israel, in their going out from Egypt.

11 Awo bakabona bonna ne bava mu Kifo Ekitukuvu. Bonna abaaliwo baali beetukuzizza, obutayawula mu bibiina byabwe.

And it cometh to pass, in the going out of the priests from the sanctuary — for all the priests who are present have sanctified themselves, there is none to watch by courses,

12 Abaleevi bonna abaali abayimbi, ng’omwo mwe muli Asafu, Kemani, Yedusuni ne batabani baabwe n’ab’eŋŋanda zaabwe nga bambadde bafuta ennungi, nga bakutte ebitaasa, n’entongooli, n’ennanga, ne bayimirira ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olw’ekyoto, wamu ne bakabona kikumi mu abiri abaafuuwanga amakondeere.

and the Levites, the singers, to all of them, to Asaph, to Heman, to Jeduthun, and to their sons, and to their brethren, clothed in white linen, with cymbals, and with psalteries, and harps, are standing on the east of the altar, and with them priests, to a hundred and twenty, blowing with trumpets —

13 Awo abaafuuwanga amakondeere n’abayimbi ne beegattira wamu mu ddoboozi ery’awamu ne batendereza era ne beebaza Mukama. Ne batendereza Mukama nga bafuuwa amakondeere, nga bakuba n’ebitaasa, n’ebivuga ebirala nga bayimba nti, “Mulungi, kubanga okwagala kwe okwenkalakkalira kubeerera emirembe n’emirembe.” Awo yeekaalu ya Mukama n’ejjula ekire.

yea, it cometh to pass, as one [are] trumpeters and singers, to sound — one voice — to praise and to give thanks to Jehovah, and at the lifting up of the sound with trumpets, and with cymbals, and with instruments of song, and at giving praise to Jehovah, for good, for to the age [is] His kindness, that the house is filled with a cloud — the house of Jehovah,

14 Bakabona ne batasobola kukola mulimu gwabwe ogw’obuweereza olw’ekire, kubanga ekitiibwa kya Mukama kyajjula yeekaalu ya Mukama.

and the priests have not been able to stand to minister from the presence of the cloud, for the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of God.
