< 2 Crônicas 5 >
1 Assim se acabou toda a obra, que Salomão fez para a casa do Senhor, então trouxe Salomão as coisas consagradas de seu pae David, e a prata, e o oiro, e todos os vasos, e pôl-os entre os thesouros da casa de Deus.
Then Solomon brought in all the things that David his father had vowed, the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels, which he placed in the treasuries of the house of God.
2 Então Salomão convocou em Jerusalem os anciãos de Israel, e a todos os chefes das tribus, os principes dos paes entre os filhos d'Israel, para fazerem subir a arca do concerto do Senhor, da cidade de David, que é Sião.
After this, he gathered together those greater by birth of Israel, and all the leaders of the tribes, and the heads of the families, from the sons of Israel, to Jerusalem, so that they might bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord from the City of David, which is Zion.
3 E todos os homens d'Israel se congregaram ao rei na festa, que era no setimo mez.
And so, all the men of Israel went to the king, on the solemn day of the seventh month.
4 E vieram todos os anciãos d'Israel; e os levitas levantaram a arca.
And when all the elders of Israel had arrived, the Levites carried the ark,
5 E fizeram subir a arca, e a tenda da congregação, com todos os vasos sagrados, que estavam na tenda: os sacerdotes e os levitas os fizeram subir.
and they brought it in, along with all the equipment of the tabernacle. Then too, the priests with the Levites carried the vessels of the sanctuary, which were in the tabernacle.
6 Então o rei Salomão, e toda a congregação d'Israel, que se tinha congregado com elle diante da arca, sacrificaram carneiros, e bois, que se não podiam contar, nem numerar, por causa da sua multidão.
Now king Solomon, and the entire assembly of Israel, and all who had gathered together before the ark, were immolating rams and oxen without any number, for so great was the multitude of the victims.
7 Assim trouxeram os sacerdotes a arca do concerto do Senhor ao seu logar, ao oraculo da casa, á sanctidade das sanctidades, até debaixo das azas dos cherubins.
And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to its place, that is, to the oracle of the temple, in the Holy of Holies, under the wings of the cherubim,
8 Porque os cherubins estendiam ambas as azas sobre o logar da arca, e os cherubins por cima cobriam a arca e os seus varaes.
so that the cherubim extended their wings over the place where the ark was positioned, and they covered the ark itself and its bars.
9 Então os varaes sobresairam para que as pontas dos varaes da arca se vissem perante o oraculo, mas não se vissem de fóra: e esteve ali até o dia d'hoje.
But concerning the bars by which the ark was carried, because they were a little longer, the ends were able to be seen before the oracle. Yet truly, if anyone were a little ways toward the exterior, he would not be able to see them. And so the ark has been in that place, even to the present day.
10 Na arca não havia, senão sómente as duas taboas, que Moysés tinha posto junto a Horeb, quando o Senhor fez concerto com os filhos d'Israel, saindo elles do Egypto.
And there was nothing else in the ark, except the two tablets, which Moses had placed there at Horeb when the Lord gave the law to the sons of Israel, at the departure from Egypt.
11 E succedeu que, saindo os sacerdotes do sanctuario (porque todos os sacerdotes, que se acharam, se sanctificaram, sem guardarem as suas turmas.
And having gone out from the Sanctuary, the priests (for all the priests who were able to be found there were sanctified, and in that time the turns and orders of the ministries had not yet been divided among them)
12 E os levitas, cantores de todos elles, d'Asaph, d'Heman, de Jeduthun, e de seus filhos, e de seus irmãos, vestidos de linho fino, com cymbalos, e com alaudes, e com harpas, estavam em pé para o oriente do altar; e com elles até cento e vinte sacerdotes, que tocavam as trombetas),
with both the Levites and the singing men, that is, those who were under Asaph, and those who were under Heman, and those who were under Jeduthun, with their sons and brothers, clothed in fine linen, sounded out with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps, standing toward the eastern side of the altar. And with them were one hundred twenty priests, sounding out with trumpets.
13 Elles uniformemente tocavam as trombetas, e cantavam para fazerem ouvir uma só voz, bemdizendo e louvando ao Senhor: e levantando elles a voz com trombetas, e cymbalos, e outros instrumentos musicos, e bemdizendo ao Senhor, porque era bom, porque a sua benignidade durava para sempre, a casa se encheu d'uma nuvem, a saber: a casa do Senhor.
And when they all sounded out together, with trumpets, and voice, and cymbals, and pipes, and with various kinds of musical instruments, lifting their voice on high, the sound was heard from far away, so that when they had begun to praise the Lord, and to say, “Confess to the Lord, for he is good; for his mercy is eternal,” the house of God was filled with a cloud.
14 E não podiam os sacerdotes ter-se em pé, para ministrar, por causa da nuvem: porque a gloria do Senhor encheu a casa de Deus.
Neither were the priests able to stand and to minister, because of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.
