殿工告竣
5 所罗门做完了耶和华殿的一切工，就把他父大卫分别为圣的金银和器皿都带来，放在神殿的府库里。
舁柜入殿
2 那时，所罗门将以色列的长老、各支派的首领并以色列的族长招聚到耶路撒冷，要把耶和华的约柜从大卫城，就是锡安，运上来。 3 于是以色列众人在七月节前都聚集到王那里。 4 以色列众长老来到，利未人便抬起约柜。 5 祭司利未人将约柜运上来，又将会幕和会幕的一切圣器具都带上来。 6 所罗门王和聚集到他那里的以色列全会众，都在约柜前献牛羊为祭，多得不可胜数。 7 祭司将耶和华的约柜抬进内殿，就是至圣所，放在两个基路伯的翅膀底下。 8 基路伯张着翅膀在约柜之上，遮掩约柜和抬柜的杠。 9 这杠甚长，杠头在内殿前可以看见，在殿外却不能看见，直到如今还在那里。 10 约柜里唯有两块石版，就是以色列人出埃及后，耶和华与他们立约的时候，摩西在何烈山所放的，除此以外，并无别物。
11 当时在那里所有的祭司都已自洁，并不分班供职。 12 他们出圣所的时候，歌唱的利未人亚萨、希幔、耶杜顿和他们的众子、众弟兄都穿细麻布衣服，站在坛的东边，敲钹、鼓瑟、弹琴，同着他们有一百二十个祭司吹号。 13 吹号的、歌唱的都一齐发声，声合为一，赞美、感谢耶和华。吹号、敲钹，用各种乐器，扬声赞美耶和华说：“耶和华本为善，他的慈爱永远长存！”那时耶和华的殿有云充满， 14 甚至祭司不能站立供职，因为耶和华的荣光充满了神的殿。
2 Chronicles 5
International Children’s Bible
5 Then all the work Solomon had done for the Temple of the Lord was finished. He brought in everything his father David had given for the Temple. He brought in all the silver and gold and all the furniture. And he put everything in the treasuries of God’s Temple.
The Ark of the Covenant Is Carried into the Temple
2 Then Solomon called for all the elders of Israel. He asked them to come to him in Jerusalem. He called for all the older leaders, the heads of the tribes and the leaders of the families. He wanted them to bring the Ark of the Covenant with the Lord from the older part of the city. 3 All the men of Israel came together with King Solomon. This was during the festival that was held in the seventh month.
4 All the elders of Israel arrived. Then the Levites picked up the Ark of the Covenant. 5 The priests and the Levites carried the Ark of the Covenant. They also carried the Meeting Tent and the holy things in it. 6 King Solomon and all the Israelites met in front of the Ark of the Covenant. They sacrificed so many sheep and bulls no one could count them.
7 Then the priests put the Ark of the Covenant with the Lord in its place. This was inside the Most Holy Place in the Temple. They put it under the wings of the gold creatures. 8 The wings of the creatures were spread out over the place for the Ark of the Covenant. They covered it and its carrying poles. 9 The carrying poles were very long. Anyone standing in the Holy Place in front of the Most Holy Place could see the ends of the poles. But no one could see the poles from outside the Holy Place. The poles are still there today. 10 The only things inside the Ark of the Covenant were two stone tablets.[a] Moses had put them in the Ark of the Covenant at Mount Sinai. That was where the Lord made an agreement with the Israelites after they came out of Egypt.
11 Then all the priests left the Holy Place. All the priests from each group made themselves ready to serve the Lord. 12 All the Levite musicians stood on the east side of the altar. They were Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun and all their sons and relatives. They were dressed in white linen and played cymbals, lyres and harps. With them were 120 priests who blew trumpets. 13 Those who blew the trumpets and those who sang together sounded like one person. They praised and thanked the Lord. They sang as they played their trumpets, cymbals and other instruments. They praised the Lord with this song:
“The Lord is good.
His love continues forever.”
Then the Temple of the Lord was filled with a cloud. 14 The priests could not continue their work because of the cloud. This was because the Lord’s glory filled the Temple of God.

2 Chronicles 5
King James Version
5 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 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 Wherefore all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king in the feast which was in the seventh month.
4 And all the elders of Israel came; and the Levites took up the ark.
5 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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.
