2 Beresosɛm 5
1 Bere a Salomo wiee Awurade Asɔredan no si ho dwumadi no, ɔde akyɛde a nʼagya, Ɔhene Dawid, de maa Awurade, a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne nneɛma a aka no bae. Wɔkoraa eyinom nyinaa wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no sikakorabea hɔ.
Thus all the work that Solomon made for the house of the LORD was finished: and Solomon brought in [all] the things that David his father had dedicated; and the silver, and the gold, and all the instruments, put he among the treasures of the house of God.
2 Afei, Salomo frɛɛ mmusuakuw ne mmusua ntuanofo a wɔwɔ Israel nyinaa sɛ wommehyia wɔ Yerusalem. Na ɛsɛ sɛ woyi Awurade Apam Adaka no fi baabi a esi wɔ Dawid kurow a na wɔsan frɛ hɔ Sion no, de kɔ beae foforo wɔ Asɔredan no mu hɔ.
Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which [is] Zion.
3 Ɔsram Bul (bɛyɛ Ahinime) a wɔredi afirihyia Asese Afahyɛ no, wɔn nyinaa behyiaa wɔ ɔhene anim.
Wherefore all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king in the feast which [was] in the seventh month.
4 Bere a Israel mpanyimfo beduu hɔ no, Lewifo no pagyaw Adaka no
And all the elders of Israel came; and the Levites took up the ark.
5 ne ntamadan sononko ne ɛho nneɛma kronkron no nyinaa. Lewifo asɔfo no soa kɔɔ Asɔredan no mu.
And they brought up the ark, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that [were] in the tabernacle, these did the priests [and] the Levites bring up.
6 Ɔhene Salomo ne Israelfo no nyinaa twaa nguan ne anantwi a wɔn dodow nti, obi ntumi nkan wɔn, de bɔɔ afɔre wɔ adaka no anim.
Also king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel that were assembled unto him before the ark, sacrificed sheep and oxen, which could not be told nor numbered for multitude.
7 Afei, asɔfo no maa Awurade Apam Adaka no so, de kɔɔ Asɔredan no kronkronbea a ɛhɔ yɛ Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ. Wɔde sii kerubim no ntaban ase.
And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto his place, to the oracle of the house, into the most holy [place, even] under the wings of the cherubims:
8 Na kerubim no ntaban trɛw wɔ Adaka a ne nnua hyehyɛ ho no so, te sɛ kyinii.
For the cherubims spread forth [their] wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the staves thereof above.
9 Na nnua no woware yiye; enti sɛ obi gyina Asɔredan no ano kwan ano a ohu. Ne nyinaa da so wɔ hɔ besi nnɛ.
And they drew out the staves [of the ark], that the ends of the staves were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without. And there it is unto this day.
10 Na biribiara nni adaka no mu sɛ abo apon abien a Mose de guu mu wɔ Horeb, bere a Awurade ne Israelfo a na wɔatu afi Misraim no yɛɛ apam no.
[There was] nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put [therein] at Horeb, when the LORD made [a covenant] with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.
11 Afei, asɔfo no fii kronkronbea hɔ. Saa bere yi, na asɔfo a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa, sɛ wɔwɔ dwuma bi di anaa wonni hwee yɛ, adwira wɔn ho.
And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy [place: ] (for all the priests [that were] present were sanctified, [and] did not [then] wait by course:
12 Lewifo nnwontofo, Asaf, Heman, Yedutun, wɔn mmabarima ne wɔn nuanom nyinaa hyehyɛɛ nwera batakari gyinagyinaa afɔremuka no apuei fam, na wɔbɔɔ kyɛnkyɛn, mmɛnta ne asankuten. Asɔfo ɔha aduonu a wɔrehyɛn torobɛnto bɛkaa wɔn ho.
Also the Levites [which were] the singers, all of them of Asaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, [being] arrayed in white linen, having cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets: )
13 Ntorobɛntohyɛnfo ne nnwontofo no nyinaa bɔɔ mu too dwom de kamfoo Awurade, daa no ase. Wɔde ntorobɛnto, kyɛnkyɛn ne nnwontode ahorow bɛkaa wɔn ho, maa wɔn nne so kamfoo Awurade sɛ: “Oye! Na nʼadɔe wɔ hɔ daa!” Saa bere no mu ara, omununkum bɛhyɛɛ Awurade asɔredan no ma.
It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers [were] as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up [their] voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised the LORD, [saying], For [he is] good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever: that [then] the house was filled with a cloud, [even] the house of the LORD;
14 Asɔfo no antumi antoa wɔn adwuma no so, efisɛ Awurade anuonyam bɛhyɛɛ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no ma.
So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of God.
