2 Cronache ( اخبار) 5

SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 وكمل جميع العمل الذي عمله سليمان لبيت الرب وادخل سليمان اقداس داود ابيه. والفضة والذهب وجميع الآنية جعلها في خزائن بيت الله.	1 Then Solomon brought in all the things that David his father had vowed, the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels he put among the treasures of the house of God.
2 حينئذ جمع سليمان شيوخ اسرائيل وكل رؤوس الاسباط رؤساء الآباء لبني اسرائيل الى اورشليم لاصعاد تابوت عهد الرب من مدينة داود. هي صهيون.	2 And after this he gathered together the ancients of Israel, and all the princes of the tribes, and the heads of the families, of the children of Israel to Jerusalem, to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David, which is Sion.
3 فاجتمع الى الملك جميع رجال اسرائيل في العيد الذي في الشهر السابع.	3 And all the men of Israel came to the king in the solemn day of the seventh month.
4 وجاء جميع شيوخ اسرائيل وحمل اللاويون التابوت	4 And when all the ancients of Israel were come, the Levites took up the ark,
5 واصعدوا التابوت وخيمة الاجتماع مع جميع آنية القدس التي في الخيمة اصعدها الكهنة واللاويون.	5 And brought it in, together with all the furniture of the tabernacle. And the priests with the Levites carried the vessels of the sanctuary, which were in the tabernacle.
6 والملك سليمان وكل جماعة اسرائيل المجتمعين اليه امام التابوت كانوا يذبحون غنما وبقرا ما لا يحصى ولا يعدّ من الكثرة.	6 And king Solomon and all the assembly of Israel, and all that were gathered together before the ark, sacrificed rams, and oxen without number: so great was the multitude of the victims.
7 وادخل الكهنة تابوت عهد الرب الى مكانه في محراب البيت في قدس الاقداس الى تحت جناحي الكروبين.	7 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, that is, to the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims:
8 وكان الكروبان باسطين اجنحتهما على موضع التابوت وظلّل الكروبان التابوت وعصيه من فوق.	8 So that the cherubims spread their wings over the place, in which the ark was set, and covered the ark itself and its staves.
9 وجذبوا العصي فتراءت رؤوس العصي من التابوت امام المحراب ولم تر خارجا وهي هناك الى هذا اليوم.	9 Now the ends of the staves wherewith the ark was carried, because they were some thing longer, were seen before the oracle: but if a man were a little outward, he could not see them. So the ark has been there unto this day.
10 لم يكن في التابوت الا اللوحان اللذان وضعهما موسى في حوريب حين عاهد الرب بني اسرائيل عند خروجهم من مصر	10 And there was nothing else in the ark but the two tables which Moses put there at Horeb when the Lord gave the law to the children of Israel, at their coming out of Egypt.
11 وكان لما خرج الكهنة من القدس لان جميع الكهنة الموجودين تقدسوا. لم تلاحظ الفرق.	11 Now when the priests were come out of the sanctuary, (for all the priests that could be found there, mere sanctified: and as yet at that time the courses and orders of the ministries were not divided among them,)
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.	12 Both the Levites and the singing men, that is, both they that were under Asaph, and they that were under Heman, and they that were under Idithun, with their sons, and their brethren, clothed with fine linen, sounded with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps, standing on the east side of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests, sounding with trumpets.
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.	13 So when they all sounded together, both with trumpets, and voice, and cymbals, and organs, and with divers kind of musical instruments, and lifted up their voice on high : the sound was heard afar off, so that when they began to praise the Lord, and to say: Give glory to the Lord for he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever: the house of God was filled with a cloud.
14 ولم يستطع الكهنة ان يقفوا للخدمة بسبب السحاب لان مجد الرب ملأ بيت الله	14 Nor could the priests stand and minister by reason of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.
