2 Cronica 5
Ang Biblia, 2001
5 Kaya't(A) natapos ang lahat ng gawaing ginawa ni Solomon para sa bahay ng Panginoon. Ipinasok ni Solomon ang mga bagay na itinalaga ni David na kanyang ama; at itinago ang pilak, ginto, at ang lahat ng mga kagamitan sa kabang-yaman ng bahay ng Diyos.
Ang Kaban ng Tipan ay Dinala sa Templo(B)
2 Pinulong(C) ni Solomon sa Jerusalem ang matatanda ng Israel, at ang lahat ng puno ng mga lipi, ang mga pinuno ng mga sambahayan ng mga ninuno ng mga anak ni Israel, upang dalhin ang kaban ng tipan ng Panginoon mula sa lunsod ni David na siyang Zion.
3 Ang lahat ng lalaki ng Israel ay nagtipun-tipon sa harapan ng hari sa kapistahan na nasa ikapitong buwan.
4 Dumating ang lahat ng matatanda sa Israel at pinasan ng mga Levita ang kaban.
5 Kanilang dinala ang kaban, ang toldang tipanan, at ang lahat ng mga banal na kasangkapang nasa tolda; ang mga ito'y dinala ng mga pari at ng mga Levita.
6 Si Haring Solomon at ang buong kapulungan ng Israel na nagtipun-tipon sa harapan niya ay nasa harapan ng kaban, na naghahandog ng napakaraming mga tupa at mga baka, na ang mga ito ay hindi mabilang.
7 Ipinasok ng mga pari ang kaban ng tipan ng Panginoon sa kalalagyan sa panloob na santuwaryo ng bahay, sa kabanal-banalang dako, sa ilalim ng mga pakpak ng mga kerubin.
8 Sapagkat iniladlad ng mga kerubin ang kanilang mga pakpak sa ibabaw ng kaban, kaya't ang mga kerubin ay lumulukob sa kaban at sa mga pasanan nito.
9 Ang mga pasanan ay napakahaba kaya't ang mga dulo ng mga pasanan ay nakikita mula sa banal na dako sa harapan ng panloob na santuwaryo, ngunit ang mga ito ay hindi nakikita sa labas; at ang mga iyon ay naroroon hanggang sa araw na ito.
10 Walang(D) anumang bagay sa loob ng kaban maliban sa dalawang tapyas ng bato na inilagay doon ni Moises sa Horeb, na doon ang Panginoon ay nakipagtipan sa mga anak ni Israel, nang sila'y lumabas sa Ehipto.
Ang Kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon
11 Nang ang mga pari ay lumabas sa banal na dako (sapagkat ang lahat ng pari na naroroon ay nagtalaga ng kanilang mga sarili, at hindi sinunod ang kanilang pagkakapangkat-pangkat.
12 Lahat ng mga mang-aawit na mga Levita, sina Asaf, Heman, Jedutun, at ang kanilang mga anak at mga kapatid, na nakadamit ng pinong lino, na may mga pompiyang, mga salterio, at mga alpa, ay nakatayo sa gawing silangan ng dambana na may kasamang isandaan at dalawampung pari na umiihip ng mga trumpeta.
13 Katungkulan(E)(F) ng mga umiihip ng trumpeta at ng mga mang-aawit na sila'y marinig na sama-sama sa pagpupuri at pasasalamat sa Panginoon), at nang ang awit ay inilakas, na may mga trumpeta at mga pompiyang at iba pang kagamitang panugtog, sa pagpupuri sa Panginoon,
“Sapagkat siya'y mabuti;
sapagkat ang kanyang tapat na pag-ibig ay magpakailanman,”
ang bahay ng Panginoon ay napuno ng ulap,
14 kaya't ang mga pari ay hindi makatayo upang makapaglingkod dahil sa ulap; sapagkat ang kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon ang pumuno sa bahay ng Diyos.

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.

5 So all the work Solomon did for the Lord’s temple was completed. Then Solomon brought the consecrated things of his father David – the silver, the gold, and all the utensils – and put them in the treasuries of God’s temple.
Preparations for the Temple Dedication
2 At that time(A) Solomon assembled at Jerusalem the elders of Israel – all the tribal heads, the ancestral chiefs of the Israelites – in order to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord up from the city of David,(B) that is, Zion. 3 So all the men of Israel were assembled in the king’s presence at the festival; this was in the seventh month.[a]
4 All the elders of Israel came, and the Levites picked up the ark. 5 They brought up the ark, the tent of meeting, and the holy utensils that were in the tent. The priests and the Levites brought them up. 6 King Solomon and the entire congregation of Israel who had gathered around him were in front of the ark sacrificing sheep, goats, and cattle that could not be counted or numbered because there were so many. 7 The priests brought the ark of the Lord’s covenant to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the temple, to the most holy place, beneath the wings of the cherubim.(C) 8 And the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark so that the cherubim formed a cover above the ark and its poles. 9 The poles were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place[b](D) in front of the inner sanctuary, but they were not seen from outside; they are still there today. 10 Nothing was in the ark except the two tablets that Moses had put in it at Horeb,[c](E) where the Lord had made a covenant with the Israelites when they came out of Egypt.
11 Now all the priests who were present had consecrated themselves regardless of their divisions.(F) When the priests came out of the holy place, 12 the Levitical singers dressed in fine linen and carrying cymbals, harps, and lyres(G) were standing east of the altar, and with them were 120 priests blowing trumpets.(H) The Levitical singers were descendants of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun and their sons(I) and relatives. 13 The trumpeters and singers joined together to praise and thank the Lord with one voice. They raised their voices, accompanied by trumpets, cymbals, and musical instruments,(J) in praise to the Lord:
For he is good;
his faithful love endures for ever.(K)
The temple, the Lord’s temple, was filled with a cloud.(L) 14 And because of the cloud, the priests were not able to continue ministering, for the glory of the Lord filled God’s temple.(M)

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.

The Ark Brought into the Temple
5 So (A)all the work that Solomon had done for the house of the Lord was finished; and Solomon brought in the things which his father David had dedicated: the silver and the gold and all the furnishings. And he put them in the treasuries of the house of God.
The Ark Brought into the Temple(B)
2 (C)Now Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel, in Jerusalem, that they might bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord up (D)from the City of David, which is Zion. 3 (E)Therefore all the men of Israel assembled with the king (F)at the feast, which was in the seventh month. 4 So all the elders of Israel came, and the (G)Levites took up the ark. 5 Then they brought up the ark, the tabernacle of meeting, and all the holy furnishings that were in the tabernacle. The priests and the Levites brought them up. 6 Also King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel who were assembled with him before the ark, were sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered for multitude. 7 Then the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to its place, into the (H)inner sanctuary of the [a]temple, to the Most Holy Place, under the wings of the cherubim. 8 For the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim overshadowed the ark and its poles. 9 The poles extended so that the ends of the (I)poles of the ark could be seen from the holy place, in front of the inner sanctuary; but they could not be seen from outside. And [b]they are there to this day. 10 Nothing was in the ark except the two tablets which Moses (J)put there at Horeb, [c]when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they had come out of Egypt.
11 And it came to pass when the priests came out of the Most Holy Place (for all the priests who were present had [d]sanctified themselves, without keeping to their (K)divisions), 12 (L)and the Levites who were the singers, all those of Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, stood at the east end of the altar, clothed in white linen, having cymbals, stringed instruments and harps, (M)and with them one hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets— 13 indeed it came to pass, when 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 music, and praised the Lord, saying:
(N)“For He is good,
For His mercy endures forever,”
that the house, the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud, 14 so that the priests could not [e]continue ministering because of the cloud; (O)for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.
