2 Chronicles 5

1 Thus all the work that Solomon wrought for the house of the LORD was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated; even the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels, and put them ha the treasuries of the house of God.

Naʻe pehē ʻa hono fakaʻosi ʻae ngāue kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe Solomone maʻae fale ʻo Sihova: pea naʻe ʻomi ki loto ʻe Solomone ʻae ngaahi meʻa naʻe fakatapui ʻe heʻene tamai ko Tevita: pea mo e siliva, mo e koula, pea mo e nāunau kotoa pē, naʻa ne ʻai fakataha mo e ngaahi koloa ʻoe fale ʻoe ʻOtua.

2 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers’ houses 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.

Pea naʻe toki fakataha ʻe Solomone ki Selūsalema ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, pea mo e ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi faʻahinga, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he ngaahi tamai ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ke ʻohake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova mei he Kolo ʻo Tevita, ʻaia ko Saione.

3 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king at the feast, which was [in] the seventh month.

Ko ia naʻe fakataha mai ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli ki he tuʻi ʻi he kātoanga naʻe fai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina.

4 And all the elders of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.

Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli: pea naʻe hiki hake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻe he kau Livai.

5 and they brought up the ark, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; these did the priests the Levites bring up.

Pea naʻa nau ʻohake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava, mo e fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakatahaʻanga, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa tapu naʻe ʻi he fale fehikitaki, naʻe ʻohake ia ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki pea mo e kau Livai.

6 And king Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, were before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude.

Pea ko Solomone foki ko e tuʻi, pea mo e fakataha kātoa ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaia naʻe fakataha mai kiate ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava, naʻa [nau ]feilaulau ʻaki ʻae fanga sipi mo e fanga pulu, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai faʻa lauʻi ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene lahi ʻaupito.

7 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova ki hono potu, ki he folofolaʻanga ʻi he fale, ki he potu toputapu ʻaupito, ʻi he lolo kapakau ʻoe ongo selupi:

8 For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staves thereof above:

He naʻe malofa atu ʻe he ongo selupi ʻa hona kapakau ki ʻolunga ʻi he potu ʻoe puha ʻoe fuakava, pea naʻe fakamalumalu ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava mo hono kau haʻamo ʻe he ongo selupi mei ʻolunga.

9 And the staves were so long 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.

Pea naʻa nau toʻo mai ʻae kau haʻamo, koeʻuhi ke hā mai ʻae mui haʻamo mei he puha ʻoe fuakava ʻi he ʻao ʻoe folofolaʻanga: ka naʻe ʻikai ha ia mei tuʻa. Pea ʻoku ʻi ai pe ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.

10 There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

Naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa ʻi he puha ʻoe fuakava, ka ko e ongo [maka ]lafalafa ʻaia naʻe ʻai ki ai ʻe Mōsese ʻi Holepi, ko e potu naʻe fai ai ʻe Sihova ha fuakava mo e fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi heʻenau haʻu mei ʻIsipite.

11 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, (for all the priests that were present had sanctified themselves, and did not keep their courses;

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hū mai ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mei he potu toputapu: (he naʻe fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻae kau taulaʻeiki kotoa pē naʻe ʻi ai, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau tali fakalakanga:

12 also the Levites which were the singers, all of them, even Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and their brethren, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets: )

Mo e kau Livai foki naʻe fai ʻae hiva, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻo ʻAsafi, mo Hemani, mo Situtuni, mo ʻenau ngaahi foha mo honau kāinga, naʻe kofuʻaki ʻae tupenu lelei mo hinehina, mo [nau ]toʻo ʻae ngaahi meʻa pakihi, mo e ngaahi ūtete, mo e ngaahi haʻape, naʻa nau tuʻu ki he potu fakahahake ʻoe feilaulauʻanga, pea naʻe tuʻu fakataha mo kinautolu ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻe toko teau ma uofulu naʻe ifi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea: )

13 it came even 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], 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,

Naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene kau taha ʻae kau ifi meʻalea mo e kau hiva, ke nau leʻo taha pe ʻi he hiva mo e fakafetaʻi kia Sihova: pea ʻi heʻenau hiki hake honau leʻo ʻi he meʻalea mo e ngaahi meʻa pakihi, mo e ngaahi meʻa fasi hiva mo nau hiva kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “He koeʻuhi ʻoku angalelei ia: pea ʻoku tuʻumaʻu ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa:” naʻe toki fakafonu ai ʻae fale ʻaki ʻae ʻao, ʻio, ʻae fale ʻo Sihova:

14 so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD filled the house of God.

Pea ko ia naʻe ʻikai faʻa tuʻu ai ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ke fai ʻae tauhi koeʻuhi ko e ʻao: he ko e nāunau ʻo Sihova naʻe fakafonu ʻaki ʻae fale ʻoe ʻOtua.
