< २ इतिहास 5 >
1 जब सोलोमनले परमप्रभुका मन्दिरको निम्ति गरेका सबै काम सिद्ध्याए, तब तिनले आफ्ना बुबा दाऊदले यस कामका निम्ति अलग राखेका सामानहरू, अर्थात् सुन, चाँदी, र सबै सर-सामान ल्याए—तिनले ती परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका भण्डारहरूमा राखे ।
So all the work which Solomon did for the house of the Lord was complete. And Solomon took the holy things which David his father had given, the silver and the gold and all the vessels, and put them in the store-houses of the house of God.
2 त्यसपछि सोलोमनले इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरू, कुलका सबै नायकहरू र इस्राएलका परिवारका अगुवाहरूलाई परमप्रभुका करारको सन्दूक दाऊदको सहर, अर्थात् सियोनबाट ल्याउन यरूशलेममा भेला गराए ।
Then Solomon sent for all the responsible men of Israel, all the chiefs of the tribes and the heads of families of the children of Israel, to come to Jerusalem and take the ark of the Lord's agreement up out of the town of David, which is Zion.
3 इस्राएलका सबै मानिस सातौं महिनामा भएको चाडको समयमा राजाको सामु भेला भए ।
And all the men of Israel came together to the king at the feast in the seventh month.
4 इस्राएलका सबै धर्म-गुरु आए, र लेवीहरूले सन्दूक लगे ।
All the responsible men of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.
5 तिनीहरूले सन्दूक र भेट हुने पाल र त्यसमा भएका सबै सामानहरू उठाएरमाथि लगे । लेवीका कुलका पुजारीहरूले ती बोकेर माथि लगे ।
They took up the ark and the Tent of meeting and all the holy vessels which were in the Tent; all these the priests, the Levites, took up.
6 सोलोमन राजा र इस्राएलका सारा समुदाय अनगिन्ति भेडा र साँढेको बलिदान चढाउँदै सन्दुकको अघि भेला भए ।
And King Solomon and all the men of Israel who had come together there with him, were before the ark, making offerings of sheep and oxen more than might be numbered.
7 पुजारीहरूले परमप्रभुका करारको सन्दूक मन्दिरको भित्री पवित्रस्थान, अर्थात् महा-पवित्रस्थानमा त्यसकै ठाउँमा ल्याएर करूबहरूका पखेटामुनि राखे ।
And the priests took the ark of the Lord's agreement and put it in its place, in the inner room of the house, in the most holy place, under the wings of the winged ones.
8 करूबहरूले आफ्ना पखेटा सन्दूक राखिएको ठाउँमाथि फैलाएका थिए, र तिनले सन्दूक र त्यसलाई बोक्ने डन्डाहरूलाई ढाके ।
For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.
9 डन्डाहरूचाहिं यति लामा थिए कि तिनका टुप्पाहरूभित्री पवित्रस्थानबाट देखिन्थ्यो, तर ती बाहिरबाट देखिंदैनथे । ती आजक दिनसम्म त्यहीं छन् ।
The rods were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place before the inmost room; but they were not seen from outside; and there they are to this day.
10 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले मिश्रदेश छोड्दा परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूसित करार बाँध्नुभएको ठाउँ होरेबमा मोशाले सन्दूकभित्र राखेका दुई वटा शिला-पाटीबाहेक त्यसमा अरू केही थिएन ।
Nothing was in the ark but the two flat stones which Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made an agreement with the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt.
11 पुजारीहरू पवित्रस्थानबाट बाहिर निस्केर आए । त्यहाँ हाजिर भएका सबै पुजारीले आआफ्नो दलअनुसार क्रमवद्ध नगरीकनै आफैलाई पवित्र गरेका थिए ।
Now when the priests had come out of the holy place, (for all the priests who were present had made themselves holy, not keeping to their divisions;
12 सबै लेवी गायक, अर्थात् आसाप, हेमान र यदूतून, तिनीहरूका छोराहरू र दाजुभाइसमेत सबै जना, मलमलका कपडा लगाएर झ्याली, वीणा र सारङ्गीहरू लिएर वेदीको पूर्वपट्टि खडा भए । तिनीहरूका साथमा एक सय बिस जना तुरही बजाउने पुजारीहरू थिए ।
And the Levites who made the music, all of them, Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and brothers, robed in fair linen, were in their places with their brass and corded instruments at the east side of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests blowing horns; )
13 तुरही बजाउनेहरू र गीत गाउनेहरूले परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा र धन्यवादको निम्ति एक सोर गरी आवाज निकाले । तिनीहरूले तुरही, झ्याली र अरू बाजाहरूसित सोर उचाले र तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गरे । तिनीहरूले गाए, “उहाँ भलो हुनुहुन्छ, किनकि उहाँको करारको बफादारीता सदासर्वदा रहन्छ ।” तब त्यो मन्दिर, परमप्रभुको मन्दिर बादलले भरियो ।
And when the players on horns, and those who made melody in song, with one voice were sounding the praise and glory of the Lord; with loud voices and with wind instruments, and brass and corded instruments of music, praising the Lord and saying, He is good; his mercy is unchanging for ever: then the house was full of the cloud of the glory of the Lord,
14 बादलले गर्दा पुजारीहरूले सेवा गर्न सकेनन्, किनकि परमप्रभुको महिमाले उहाँको मन्दिर भरिएको थियो ।
So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud; for the house of God was full of the glory of the Lord.
