NEW JERUSALEMSMITH VAN DYKE
1 Thus all the work done by Solomon for the Temple of Yahweh was completed, and Solomon brought inthe gifts which his father David had consecrated; and he had the silver, the gold and all the utensils put into thetreasuries of the Temple of God.1 وكمل جميع العمل الذي عمله سليمان لبيت الرب وادخل سليمان اقداس داود ابيه. والفضة والذهب وجميع الآنية جعلها في خزائن بيت الله.
2 Solomon then assembled the elders of Israel to Jerusalem, al the tribal chiefs, the princes of thefamilies of Israel, to bring the ark of the covenant of Yahweh up from the City of David, that is, Zion.2 حينئذ جمع سليمان شيوخ اسرائيل وكل رؤوس الاسباط رؤساء الآباء لبني اسرائيل الى اورشليم لاصعاد تابوت عهد الرب من مدينة داود. هي صهيون.
3 Al the men of Israel assembled round the king at the time of the feast, that is, in the seventh month.3 فاجتمع الى الملك جميع رجال اسرائيل في العيد الذي في الشهر السابع.
4 When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the Levites took up the ark;4 وجاء جميع شيوخ اسرائيل وحمل اللاويون التابوت
5 they brought up the ark and the Tent of Meeting and al the sacred utensils which were in the Tent; thelevitical priests brought them up.5 واصعدوا التابوت وخيمة الاجتماع مع جميع آنية القدس التي في الخيمة اصعدها الكهنة واللاويون.
6 King Solomon and the whole assembly of Israel present with him before the ark sacrificed countless,innumerable sheep and oxen.6 والملك سليمان وكل جماعة اسرائيل المجتمعين اليه امام التابوت كانوا يذبحون غنما وبقرا ما لا يحصى ولا يعدّ من الكثرة.
7 The priests brought the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to its place, in the Debir of the Temple, that is, inthe Holy of Holies, under the wings of the winged creatures;7 وادخل الكهنة تابوت عهد الرب الى مكانه في محراب البيت في قدس الاقداس الى تحت جناحي الكروبين.
8 for they spread their wings over the place where the ark stood, forming a canopy over the ark and itsshafts.8 وكان الكروبان باسطين اجنحتهما على موضع التابوت وظلّل الكروبان التابوت وعصيه من فوق.
9 The shafts were so long, however, that the ends of the shafts of the ark could be seen in front of theHoly Place in front of the Debir, though they could not be seen from outside. They are still there today.9 وجذبوا العصي فتراءت رؤوس العصي من التابوت امام المحراب ولم تر خارجا وهي هناك الى هذا اليوم.
10 There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets which Moses had placed in it at Horeb, whenYahweh made a covenant with the Israelites when they came out of Egypt.10 لم يكن في التابوت الا اللوحان اللذان وضعهما موسى في حوريب حين عاهد الرب بني اسرائيل عند خروجهم من مصر
11 Now when the priests came out of the Holy Place -- for al the priests present had sanctifiedthemselves regardless of the orders to which they belonged,11 وكان لما خرج الكهنة من القدس لان جميع الكهنة الموجودين تقدسوا. لم تلاحظ الفرق.
12 and al the levitical singers, Asaph, Heman and Jeduthun with their sons and brothers, dressed inlinen, were standing to the east of the altar with cymbals, lyres and harps and with them one hundred and twentypriests blowing the trumpets,12 واللاويون المغنون اجمعون آساف وهيمان ويدوثون وبنوهم واخوتهم لابسين كتانا بالصنوج والرباب والعيدان واقفين شرقي المذبح ومعهم من الكهنة مئة وعشرون ينفخون في الابواق.
13 and the harmony between trumpeters and singers was such that only one melody could be heard asthey praised and gave thanks to Yahweh -- and the singing began, to the accompaniment of trumpets, cymbalsand musical instruments, and they praised Yahweh 'for he is good, for his faithful love is everlasting' -- then theTemple was fil ed with the cloud of the glory of Yahweh,13 وكان لما صوّت المبوقون والمغنون كواحد صوتا واحدا لتسبيح الرب وحمده ورفعوا صوتا بالابواق والصنوج وآلات الغناء والتسبيح للرب لانه صالح لان الى الابد رحمته ان البيت بيت الرب امتلأ سحابا.
14 and because of the cloud the priests could not stay and perform their duties. For the glory of Yahwehfilled the Temple of God.14 ولم يستطع الكهنة ان يقفوا للخدمة بسبب السحاب لان مجد الرب ملأ بيت الله
