2 Berɛsosɛm 5
1 Ɛberɛ a Salomo wiee Awurade Asɔredan no sie ho dwumadie no, ɔde akyɛdeɛ a nʼagya, Ɔhene Dawid, de maa Awurade, a ɛyɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne nneɛma a aka no baeɛ. Wɔkoraa yeinom nyinaa wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no sikakorabea mu.
And all the work that Solomon made for the house of YHWH is finished, and Solomon brings in the sanctified things of his father David, and the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels he has put among the treasures of the house of God.
2 Afei, Salomo frɛɛ mmusuakuo ne mmusua ntuanofoɔ a wɔwɔ Israel nyinaa sɛ wɔmmɛhyia Yerusalem. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔyi Awurade Apam Adaka no firi baabi a ɛsi wɔ Dawid kuro a na wɔsane frɛ hɔ Sion no, de kɔ beaeɛ foforɔ wɔ Asɔredan no mu hɔ.
Then Solomon assembles the elderly of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, to Jerusalem, to bring up the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH from the City of David—it [is] Zion.
3 Bosome Bul (bɛyɛ Ahinime) a wɔredi afirinhyia Asese Afahyɛ no, wɔn nyinaa bɛhyiaa ɔhene anim.
And all the men of Israel are assembled to the king in the celebration—it [is] the seventh month;
4 Ɛberɛ a mpanimfoɔ no bɛduruu Israel no, Lewifoɔ no pagyaa Adaka no
and all [the] elderly of Israel come in, and the Levites lift up the Ark,
5 ne ntomadan sononko ne ɛho nneɛma kronkron no nyinaa. Lewifoɔ asɔfoɔ no soa kɔɔ Asɔredan no mu.
and they bring up the Ark, and the Tent of Meeting, and all the holy vessels that [are] in the tent; the priests, the Levites, have brought them up;
6 Ɔhene Salomo ne Israel manfoɔ no nyinaa de nnwan ne anantwie a wɔn dodoɔ nni ano bɔɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ Adaka no anim.
and King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel who are convened to him before the Ark are sacrificing sheep and oxen that are not counted nor numbered from multitude.
7 Afei, asɔfoɔ no maa Awurade Apam Adaka no so, de kɔɔ Asɔredan no kronkronbea a ɛhɔ yɛ Kronkron mu Kronkron hɔ, de kɔhyɛɛ Kerubim no ntaban ase.
And the priests bring in the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH to its place, to the oracle of the house, to the Holy of Holies, to the place of the wings of the cherubim;
8 Kerubim no trɛɛ wɔn ntaban mu wɔ Adaka no so, ma ɛyɛɛ sɛ kyiniiɛ wɔ Adaka no ne ne nnua a ɛsosɔ mu no so.
and the cherubim are spreading out wings over the place of the Ark, and the cherubim cover over the Ark, and over its poles, from above;
9 Na nnua no woware yie; enti sɛ obi gyina Asɔredan no ano kwan ano a ɔhunu. Ne nyinaa da so wɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
and they lengthen the poles, and the heads of the poles are seen out of the Ark on the front of the oracle, and they are not seen outside; and it is there to this day.
10 Na biribiara nni adaka no mu sɛ aboɔ apono mmienu a Mose de guu mu wɔ Horeb wɔ ɛberɛ a Awurade ne Israelfoɔ a na wɔatu afiri Misraim no yɛɛ apam no.
There is nothing in the Ark but the two tablets that Moses gave in Horeb, where YHWH covenanted with the sons of Israel, in their going out from Egypt.
11 Afei, asɔfoɔ no firii kronkronbea hɔ. Saa ɛberɛ yi, na asɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa, sɛ wɔwɔ dwuma bi die anaa wɔnni hwee yɛ, adwira wɔn ho.
And it comes to pass, in the going out of the priests from the holy place—for all the priests who are present have sanctified themselves, there is none to watch by divisions,
12 Lewifoɔ nnwomtofoɔ, Asaf, Heman, Yedutun, wɔn mmammarima ne wɔn nuanom nyinaa hyehyɛɛ nwera mmatakari gyinagyinaa afɔrebukyia no apueeɛ fam, na wɔbɔɔ kyankyan, mmɛnta ne nsankuten. Asɔfoɔ ɔha aduonu a wɔrehyɛn totorobɛnto bɛkaa wɔn ho.
and the Levites, the singers, to all of them, to Asaph, to Heman, to Jeduthun, and to their sons, and to their brothers, clothed in white linen, with cymbals, and with psalteries, and harps, are standing on the east of the altar, and with them one hundred and twenty priests blowing with trumpets—
13 Ntotorobɛntohyɛnfoɔ ne nnwomtofoɔ no nyinaa bɔɔ mu too dwom de kamfoo Awurade, daa no ase. Wɔde ntotorobɛnto, kyankyan ne nnwontodeɛ ahodoɔ bɛkaa wɔn ho, maa wɔn nne so, kamfoo Awurade sɛ: “Ɔyɛ! Na nʼadɔeɛ wɔ hɔ daa!” Saa ɛberɛ no mu ara, omununkum bɛhyɛɛ Awurade asɔredan no ma.
indeed, it comes to pass, trumpeters and singers [are] as one, to sound [with] one voice—to praise and to give thanks to YHWH, and at the lifting up of the sound with trumpets, and with cymbals, and with instruments of song, and at giving praise to YHWH, [saying], “For [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time,” that the house is filled with a cloud—the house of YHWH,
14 Asɔfoɔ no antumi antoa wɔn adwuma no so, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade animuonyam bɛhyɛɛ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no ma.
and the priests have not been able to stand to minister from the presence of the cloud, for the glory of YHWH has filled the house of God.
