2 Cronica 5
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
5 Nang matapos na ni Solomon ang lahat ng gawain para sa templo ng Panginoon, dinala niya sa bodega ng templo ang lahat ng bagay na itinalaga ng ama niyang si David pati na ang ginto, pilak at iba pang kagamitan.
Dinala sa Templo ang Kahon ng Kasunduan(A)
2 Ipinatawag ni Haring Solomon sa Jerusalem ang mga tagapamahala ng Israel at ang lahat ng pinuno ng mga lahi at ng mga pamilya sa Israel, para kunin ang Kahon ng Kasunduan ng Panginoon mula sa Zion, ang Lungsod ni David. 3 Pumunta silang lahat kay Haring Solomon noong panahon ng Pista ng Pagtatayo ng mga Kubol, nang ikapitong buwan.
4-5 Nang magkatipon na ang lahat ng tagapamahala ng Israel, kinuha ng mga pari at ng mga Levita ang Kahon, ang Toldang Tipanan at ang mga banal na gamit nito. Dinala nilang lahat ito sa templo. 6 Naghandog si Haring Solomon at ang buong mamamayan ng Israel sa harapan ng Kahon ng Kasunduan. Napakaraming tupa at baka ang kanilang inihandog, hindi ito mabilang dahil sa dami.
7 Pagkatapos, dinala ng mga pari ang Kahon ng Kasunduan ng Panginoon sa lugar nito roon sa pinakaloob ng templo, sa Pinakabanal na Lugar, sa ilalim ng mga pakpak ng mga kerubin. 8 Nakalukob ang pakpak ng mga kerubin kaya natatakpan ang Kahon at ang mga hawakang pasanan nito. 9 Itong mga hawakang pasanan ay mahaba, ang dulo nito ay kita sa Banal na Lugar, sa harapan ng pinakaloob ng templo, pero hindi ito makita sa labas ng Banal na Lugar. At naroon pa ito hanggang ngayon. 10 Walang ibang laman ang Kahon maliban sa dalawang malalapad na bato na inilagay ni Moises noong nandoon siya sa Horeb, kung saan gumawa ng kasunduan ang Panginoon sa mga Israelita pagkatapos nilang lumabas sa Egipto.
11 Pagkatapos, lumabas ang mga pari sa Banal na Lugar. Ang lahat ng pari na naroon ay nagpakalinis, oras man ng kanilang paglilingkod o hindi. 12 Ang mga musikerong Levita na sina Asaf, Heman, Jedutun at ang kanilang mga anak at mga kamag-anak ay tumayo sa bandang silangan ng altar. Nakasuot sila ng pinong linen at tumutugtog ng pompyang, alpa at lira. Sinasamahan sila ng 120 pari na nagpapatunog ng trumpeta. 13 Ang mga mang-aawit ay nagpuri at nagpasalamat sa Panginoon na tinutugtugan ng mga trumpeta, pompyang at iba pang mga instrumento. Ito ang kanilang inaawit:
“Ang Panginoon ay mabuti; ang pag-ibig niyaʼy walang hanggan.”
Pagkatapos, may ulap na bumalot sa templo ng Panginoon. 14 Hindi na makaganap ang mga pari ng kanilang gawain sa templo dahil sa ulap, dahil binalot ng makapangyarihang presensya ng Panginoon ang kanyang templo.
2 Chronicles 5
English Standard Version
5 (A)Thus all the work that Solomon did for the house of the Lord was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, and stored the silver, the gold, and all the vessels in the treasuries of the house of God.
The Ark Brought to the Temple
2 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the leaders of the fathers' houses of the people of Israel, in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of (B)the city of David, which is Zion. 3 And all the men of Israel assembled before the king at the feast that is in the seventh month. 4 And all the elders of Israel came, (C)and the Levites took up the ark. 5 And they brought up the ark, the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the tent; (D)the Levitical priests brought them up. 6 And 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 counted or numbered. 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 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 And the poles were so long that the ends of the poles were seen (E)from the Holy Place before the inner sanctuary, but they could not be seen from outside. And they are[a] there to this day. 10 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets (F)that Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made a covenant with the people of Israel, when they came out of Egypt. 11 And when the priests came out of the Holy Place (for all the priests who were present had consecrated themselves, without regard to (G)their divisions, 12 and all the Levitical (H)singers, (I)Asaph, (J)Heman, and Jeduthun, their sons and kinsmen, arrayed in fine linen, with (K)cymbals, harps, and lyres, stood east of the altar with 120 (L)priests who were trumpeters; 13 and it was the duty of the trumpeters and singers to make themselves heard in unison in praise and thanksgiving to the Lord), and when the song was raised, (M)with trumpets and cymbals and other musical instruments, in praise to the Lord,
(N)“For he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever,”
the house, the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud, 14 so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, (O)for the glory of the Lord filled the house 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.
