2 Crónicas 5

Traslado del arca al templo
5 Así fue terminada toda la obra que Salomón hizo para la casa del Señor. Y Salomón trajo las cosas consagradas por[a] su padre David, es decir, la plata, el oro y todos los utensilios, y los puso en los tesoros de la casa de Dios(A).
2 (B)Entonces Salomón reunió en Jerusalén a los ancianos de Israel, a todos los jefes de las tribus y a los principales de las casas paternas[b] de los hijos de Israel, para subir el arca del pacto del Señor de la ciudad de David(C), la cual es Sión. 3 Y se reunieron ante el rey todos los hombres de Israel en la fiesta del[c] mes séptimo(D). 4 Cuando llegaron todos los ancianos de Israel, los levitas alzaron el arca(E); 5 y llevaron[d] el arca y la tienda de reunión y todos los utensilios sagrados que estaban en la tienda; los sacerdotes levitas los llevaron[e]. 6 Y el rey Salomón y toda la congregación de Israel, que estaba reunida con él delante del arca, sacrificaban tantas ovejas y bueyes que no se podían contar ni numerar[f]. 7 Los sacerdotes trajeron el arca del pacto del Señor a su lugar, al santuario interior de la casa, al lugar santísimo, bajo las alas de los querubines. 8 Porque los querubines extendían las alas sobre el lugar del arca, y los querubines cubrían el arca y sus barras por encima. 9 Pero las barras eran tan largas que los extremos de las barras del arca se podían ver delante del santuario interior, mas no se podían ver desde afuera; y allí están[g] hasta hoy(F). 10 En el arca no había más que las dos tablas que Moisés puso allí(G) en Horeb, donde el Señor hizo pacto con los hijos de Israel cuando salieron de Egipto.
11 Y sucedió que cuando los sacerdotes salieron del lugar santo (porque todos los sacerdotes que estaban presentes se habían santificado sin tener en cuenta las clases(H)), 12 todos los levitas cantores, Asaf, Hemán, Jedutún y sus hijos y sus parientes[h](I), vestidos de lino fino, con címbalos, arpas y liras, estaban de pie al oriente del altar, y con ellos ciento veinte sacerdotes que tocaban trompetas(J). 13 Cuando los trompeteros y los cantores, al unísono, se hacían oír a una voz alabando y glorificando al Señor, cuando levantaban sus voces acompañados por trompetas y címbalos e instrumentos de música(K), cuando alababan al Señor diciendo: Ciertamente Él es bueno porque su misericordia es para siempre(L), entonces la casa, la casa del Señor, se llenó de una nube, 14 y los sacerdotes no pudieron quedarse a ministrar a causa de la nube, porque la gloria del Señor llenaba la casa de Dios(M).

2 Chronicles 5
New International Version
5 When all the work Solomon had done for the temple of the Lord was finished,(A) he brought in the things his father David had dedicated(B)—the silver and gold and all the furnishings—and he placed them in the treasuries of God’s temple.
The Ark Brought to the Temple(C)
2 Then Solomon summoned to Jerusalem the elders of Israel, all the heads of the tribes and the chiefs of the Israelite families, to bring up the ark(D) of the Lord’s covenant from Zion, the City of David. 3 And all the Israelites(E) came together to the king at the time of the festival in the seventh month.
4 When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the Levites took up the ark, 5 and they brought up the ark and the tent of meeting and all the sacred furnishings in it. The Levitical priests(F) carried them up; 6 and King Solomon and the entire assembly of Israel that had gathered about him were before the ark, sacrificing so many sheep and cattle that they could not be recorded or counted.
7 The priests then brought the ark(G) of the Lord’s covenant to its place in the inner sanctuary of the temple, the Most Holy Place, and put it beneath the wings of the cherubim. 8 The cherubim(H) spread their wings over the place of the ark and covered the ark and its carrying poles. 9 These poles were so long that their ends, extending from the ark, could be seen from in front of the inner sanctuary, but not from outside the Holy Place; and they are still there today. 10 There was nothing in the ark except(I) the two tablets(J) that Moses had placed in it at Horeb, where the Lord made a covenant with the Israelites after they came out of Egypt.
11 The priests then withdrew from the Holy Place. All the priests who were there had consecrated themselves, regardless of their divisions.(K) 12 All the Levites who were musicians(L)—Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun and their sons and relatives—stood on the east side of the altar, dressed in fine linen and playing cymbals, harps and lyres. They were accompanied by 120 priests sounding trumpets.(M) 13 The trumpeters and musicians joined in unison to give praise and thanks to the Lord. Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals and other instruments, the singers raised their voices in praise to the Lord and sang:
“He is good;
his love endures forever.”(N)
Then the temple of the Lord was filled with the cloud,(O) 14 and the priests could not perform(P) their service because of the cloud,(Q) for the glory(R) of the Lord filled the temple of God.

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 Thus all the work that Solomon did for the house of the Lord was finished. Solomon brought in the things that his father David had dedicated and stored the silver, the gold, and all the vessels in the treasuries of the house of God.(A)
The Ark Brought into the Temple
2 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the leaders of the ancestral houses of the people of Israel, in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, which is Zion.(B) 3 And all the Israelites assembled before the king at the festival that is in the seventh month. 4 And all the elders of Israel came, and the Levites carried the ark.(C) 5 So they brought up the ark, the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the tent; the priests and the Levites brought them up. 6 King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, who had assembled before him, were before the ark, sacrificing so many sheep and oxen that they could not be numbered or counted. 7 Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the Lord to its place, in the inner sanctuary of the house, in the most holy place, underneath the wings of the cherubim. 8 For the cherubim spread out their wings over the place of the ark, so that the cherubim made a covering above the ark and its poles. 9 The poles were so long that the ends of the poles were seen from the holy place[a] in front of the inner sanctuary, but they could not be seen from outside; they are there to this day.(D) 10 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets that Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made a covenant[b] with the people of Israel when they came out of Egypt.(E)
11 Now when the priests came out of the holy place (for all the priests who were present had sanctified themselves, without regard to their divisions),(F) 12 all the Levitical singers, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun, their sons and kindred, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals, harps, and lyres, stood east of the altar with one hundred twenty priests who were trumpeters.(G) 13 It was the duty of the trumpeters and singers together to make themselves heard in unison in praise and thanksgiving to the Lord, and when the song was raised, with trumpets and cymbals and other musical instruments, in praise to the Lord,
“For he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever,”
the house, the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud,(H) 14 so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.(I)
