2 Crónicas 5
1 Así se terminó la obra que Salomón hizo para la Casa de Yavé. Salomón introdujo los objetos que su padre David consagró: la plata, el oro y todos los utensilios. Los depositó en el tesoro de la Casa de ʼElohim.
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 Después Salomón reunió en Jerusalén a los ancianos de Israel, todos los jefes de las tribus y los jefes de casas paternas de los hijos de Israel para subir el Arca del Pacto de Yavé desde la Ciudad de David, la cual es Sion.
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 Todos los hombres de Israel se congregaron ante el rey en la solemnidad del mes séptimo.
And all the men of Israel came together to the king at the feast in the seventh month.
4 Cuando todos los ancianos de Israel llegaron, los levitas alzaron el Arca.
All the responsible men of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.
5 Los sacerdotes levitas subieron el Arca, el Tabernáculo de Reunión y todos los utensilios sagrados que había dentro del Tabernáculo.
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 El rey Salomón y toda la congregación de Israel que se reunió con él delante del Arca sacrificaron ovejas y becerros, los cuales, a causa de su gran cantidad no se pudieron contar ni calcular.
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 Entonces los sacerdotes introdujeron el Arca del Pacto de Yavé a su puesto en el Lugar Santísimo de la Casa debajo de las alas de los querubines,
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 porque los querubines extienden las alas sobre el lugar del Arca, de modo que los querubines cubren el Arca y sus varas por encima.
For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.
9 Aunque las varas eran tan largas que los extremos de ellas se podían ver desde el Lugar Santo que está frente al Lugar Santísimo, no podían verse desde afuera. Y así están hasta hoy.
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 Dentro del Arca no había sino las dos tablas que Moisés puso allí en Horeb, donde Yavé pactó con los hijos de Israel después que salieron de Egipto.
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 Aconteció que cuando los sacerdotes salían del Santuario (porque todos los sacerdotes presentes se purificaron sin tener en cuenta las clases),
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 y todos los levitas cantores, Asaf, Hemán y Jedutún, con sus hijos y hermanos, cubiertos con lino fino, estaban en pie con címbalos, salterios y arpas al oriente del altar, y con ellos 120 sacerdotes que tocaban trompetas,
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 los trompetistas y los cantores se unieron para proclamar a una voz. Alababan y daban gracias a Yavé. Al alzar la voz con las trompetas, los címbalos y los otros instrumentos musicales, alababan a Yavé: Porque es bueno, porque para siempre es su misericordia, una nube llenó la Casa de Yavé.
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 Los sacerdotes no pudieron continuar ministrando por causa de la nube, porque la gloria de Yavé llenó la Casa de ʼElohim.
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.
