< 2 Chronicles 5 >

1 So was all the worke finished that Salomon made for the house of the Lord, and Salomon brought in the things that Dauid his father had dedicated, with the siluer and the golde, and all the vessels, and put them among the treasures of the house of God.
Intulit igitur Salomon omnia, quæ voverat David pater suus, argentum, et aurum, et universa vasa posuit in thesauris domus Dei.
2 Then Salomon assembled the Elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chiefe fathers of the children of Israel vnto Ierusalem to bring vp the Arke of the couenant of the Lord from the citie of Dauid, which is Zion.
Post quæ congregavit maiores natu Israel, et cunctos principes tribuum, et capita familiarum de filiis Israel in Ierusalem, ut adducerent arcam fœderis Domini de Civitate David, quæ est Sion.
3 And all ye men of Israel assembled vnto the King at the feast: it was in ye seuenth moneth.
Venerunt itaque ad regem omnes viri Israel in die sollemni mensis septimi.
4 And all the Elders of Israel came, and the Leuites tooke vp the Arke.
Cumque venissent cuncti seniorum Israel, portaverunt Levitæ arcam,
5 And they caried vp the Arke and the Tabernacle of the Congregation: and all the holy vessels that were in the Tabernacle, those did the Priests and Leuites bring vp.
et intulerunt eam, et omnem paraturam tabernaculi. Porro vasa sanctuarii, quæ erant in tabernaculo, portaverunt Sacerdotes cum Levitis.
6 And King Salomon and all the Congregation of Israel that were assembled vnto him, were before ye Arke, offring sheepe and bullocks, which could not be told nor nobred for multitude.
Rex autem Salomon, et universus cœtus Israel, et omnes, qui fuerunt congregati ante arcam, immolabant arietes, et boves absque ullo numero: tanta enim erat multitudo victimarum.
7 So the Priests brought the Arke of the couenant of the Lord vnto his place, into the Oracle of the house, into the most Holy place, euen vnder the wings of the Cherubims.
Et intulerunt Sacerdotes arcam fœderis Domini in locum suum, id est, ad oraculum templi, in Sancta sanctorum subter alas cherubim:
8 For ye Cherubims stretched out their wings ouer the place of the Arke, and the Cherubims couered the Arke and the barres thereof aboue.
ita ut cherubim expanderent alas suas super locum, in quo posita erat arca, et ipsam arcam tegerent cum vectibus suis.
9 And they drewe out the barres, that the endes of the barres might bee seene out of the Arke before the Oracle, but they were not seene without: and there they are vnto this day.
Vectium autem, quibus portabatur arca, quia paululum longiores erant, capita parebant ante oraculum: si vero quis paululum fuisset extrinsecus, eos videre non poterat. Fuit itaque arca ibi usque in præsentem diem.
10 Nothing was in the Arke, saue the two Tables, which Moses gaue at Horeb, where the Lord made a couenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.
Nihilque erat aliud in arca, nisi duæ tabulæ, quas posuerat Moyses in Horeb, quando legem dedit Dominus filiis Israel egredientibus ex Ægypto.
11 And when the Priestes were come out of the Sanctuarie (for all the Priests that were present, were sanctified and did not waite by course.
Egressis autem Sacerdotibus de sanctuario (omnes enim Sacerdotes, qui ibi potuerant inveniri, sanctificati sunt: nec adhuc in illo tempore vices, et ministeriorum ordo inter eos divisus erat)
12 And the Leuites the singers of all sortes, as of Asaph, of Heman, of Ieduthun, and of their sonnes and of their brethren, being clad in fine linen, stoode with cymbales, and with violes and harpes at the East ende of the altar, and with them an hundreth and twentie Priestes blowing with trumpets:
tam Levitæ quam cantores, id est, et qui sub Asaph erant, et qui sub Eman, et qui sub Idithun, filii, et fratres eorum vestiti byssinis, cymbalis, et psalteriis, et citharis concrepabant, stantes ad Orientalem plagam altaris, et cum eis Sacerdotes centum viginti canentes tubis.
13 And they were as one, blowing trumpets, and singing, and made one sounde to bee heard in praysing and thanking the Lord, and when they lift vp their voyce with trumpets and with cymbales, and with instruments of musicke, and when they praysed the Lord, singing, For he is good, because his mercie lasteth for euer) then the house, euen the house of the Lord was filled with a cloude,
Igitur cunctis pariter, et tubis, et voce, et cymbalis, et organis, et diversi generis musicorum concinentibus, et vocem in sublime tollentibus; longe sonitus audiebatur, ita ut cum Dominum laudare cœpissent et dicere: Confitemini Domino quoniam bonus, quoniam in æternum misericordia eius; impleretur domus Dei nube,
14 So that the Priests could not stand to minister, because of the cloude: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.
nec possent Sacerdotes stare et ministrare propter caliginem. Compleverat enim gloria Domini domum Dei.
