< 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 pai David, e a prata, e o ouro, e todos os vasos, e pô-los entre os tesouros da casa de Deus.
And Solomon brought in the holy things of his father David, the silver, and the gold, and the [other] vessels, and put them in the treasury of the house of the Lord.
2 Então Salomão convocou em Jerusalém os anciãos de Israel, e a todos os chefes das tribos, os príncipes dos pais entre os filhos de Israel, para fazerem subir a arca do concerto do Senhor, da cidade de David, que é Sião.
Then Solomon assembled all the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, [even] the leaders of the families of the children of Israel, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, —this [is] Sion.
3 E todos os homens de Israel se congregaram ao rei na festa, que era no sétimo mês.
And all Israel were assembled [to] the king in the feast, this [is] the seventh month.
4 E vieram todos os anciãos de Israel; e os levitas levantaram a arca.
And all the elders of Israel came; and all the Levites took up 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 the tabernacle of witness, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle; and the priests and the Levites brought it up.
6 Então o rei Salomão, e toda a congregação de Israel, que se tinha congregado com ele diante da arca, sacrificaram carneiros, e bois, que se não podiam contar, nem numerar, por causa da sua multidão.
And king Solomon, and all the elders of Israel, and the religious of them, and they of them that were gathered before the ark, [were] sacrificing calves and sheep, which could not be numbered or reckoned for multitude.
7 Assim trouxeram os sacerdotes a arca do concerto do Senhor ao seu lugar, ao oráculo da casa, à santidade das santidades, até debaixo das asas dos cherubins.
And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the house, [even] into the holy of holies, under the wings of the cherubs.
8 Porque os cherubins estendiam ambas as asas sobre o lugar da arca, e os cherubins por cima cobriam a arca e os seus varais.
And the cherubs stretched out their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubs covered the ark, and its staves above.
9 Então os varais sobresairam para que as pontas dos varais da arca se vissem perante o oráculo, mas não se vissem de fora: e esteve ali até o dia de hoje.
And the staves projected, and the heads of the staves were seen from the holy place in front of the oracle, they were not seen without: and there they were to this day.
10 Na arca não havia, senão somente as duas tábuas, que Moisés tinha posto junto a Horeb, quando o Senhor fez concerto com os filhos de Israel, saindo eles do Egito.
There was nothing in the ark except the two tables which Moses placed [there] in Choreb, which God gave in covenant with the children of Israel, when they went out of the land of Egypt.
11 E sucedeu que, saindo os sacerdotes do santuário (porque todos os sacerdotes, que se acharam, se santificaram, sem guardarem as suas turmas.
And it came to pass, when the priests when out of the holy place, (for all the priests that were found were sanctified, they were not [then] arranged according to their daily course, )
12 E os levitas, cantores de todos eles, d'Asaph, d'Heman, de Jeduthun, e de seus filhos, e de seus irmãos, vestidos de linho fino, com címbalos, e com alaúdes, e com harpas, estavam em pé para o oriente do altar; e com eles até cento e vinte sacerdotes, que tocavam as trombetas),
that all the singing Levites [assigned] to the sons of Asaph, to Aeman, to Idithun, and to his sons, and to his brethren, of them that were clothed in linen garments, with cymbals and lutes and harps, [were] standing before the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests, blowing trumpets.
13 Eles uniformemente tocavam as trombetas, e cantavam para fazerem ouvir uma só voz, bendizendo e louvando ao Senhor: e levantando eles a voz com trombetas, e címbalos, e outros instrumentos músicos, e bendizendo ao Senhor, porque era bom, porque a sua benignidade durava para sempre, a casa se encheu de uma nuvem, a saber: a casa do Senhor.
And there was one voice in the trumpeting and in the psalm-singing, and in the loud utterance with one voice to give thanks and praise the Lord; and when they raised their voice together with trumpets and cymbals, and instruments of music, and said, Give thanks to the Lord, for [it is] good, for his mercy [endures] for ever: —then the house was filled with the cloud of the glory of the Lord.
14 E não podiam os sacerdotes ter-se em pé, para ministrar, por causa da nuvem: porque a glória do Senhor encheu a casa de Deus.
And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.
