II Chronicles
Chapter 5
1
Thus all the work that Solomon manufactured
for
the house of Jehovah/God 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 'Elohiym/Godhead.
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 Jehovah/God
out
of the city of David,
which
is Zion.
3
Therefore 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
who
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 Jehovah/God
unto
his place, to the oracle of the house,
into
the Most Holy Place {Holy of Holies},
even
under the wings of the cherubim . . . 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.
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 outside.
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
Jehovah/God 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 Jehovah/God;
and
when they lifted up their voice
with
the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music,
and
praised Jehovah/God, saying,
For
He is good;
for
His mercy endures forever . . .
that
then the house was filled with a cloud,
even
the house of Jehovah/God; 14
so
that the priests could not stand
to
minister by reason of the cloud . . .
for
the glory of Jehovah/God
had
filled the house of 'Elohiym/Godhead.
