וַתִּשְׁלַם כָּל־הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂה שְׁלֹמֹה לְבֵית יְהוָה וַיָּבֵא שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת־קָדְשֵׁי דָּוִיד אָבִיו וְאֶת־הַכֶּסֶף וְאֶת־הַזָּהָב וְאֶת־כָּל־הַכֵּלִים נָתַן בְּאֹצְרוֹת בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִים
Thus all the work that Solomon wrought for the house of HaShem was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had hallowed; even the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels, and put them in the treasuries of the house of G-d.
Καὶ εἰσήνεγκε Σαλωμὼν τὰ ἅγια Δαυὶδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, τὸ ἀργύριον, καὶ τὸ χρυσίον, καὶ τὰ σκεύη, καὶ ἔδωκεν εἰς θησαυρὸν οἴκου Κυρίου.
And Solomon brought in the holy things of his father David, the silver, and the gold, and the [other] vessels, and put them in the treasury of the house of the Lord.
2
אָז יַקְהֵיל שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת־זִקְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאֶת־כָּל־רָאשֵׁי הַמַּטּוֹת נְשִׂיאֵי הָאָבוֹת לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל־יְרוּשָׁלָ͏ִם לְהַעֲלוֹת אֶת־אֲרוֹן בְּרִית־יְהוָה מֵעִיר דָּוִיד הִיא צִיּוֹן
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 HaShem out of the city of David, which is Zion.
Τότε ἐξεκκλησίασε Σαλωμὼν πάντας τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῶν φυλῶν τοὺς ἡγουμένους πατριῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, τοῦ ἀνενέγκαι κιβωτὸν διαθήκης Κυρίου ἐκ πόλεως Δαυὶδ, αὕτη Σιών.
Then Solomon assembled all the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, [even] the leaders of the families of the children of Israel, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the city of David—this [is] Zion.
3
וַיִּקָּהֲלוּ אֶל־הַמֶּלֶךְ כָּל־אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל בֶּחָג הוּא הַחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִעִי
And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king at the feast, which was in the seventh month.
Καὶ ἐξεκκλησιάσθησαν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῇ ἑορτῇ, οὗτος ὁ μὴν ἕβδομος.
And all Israel were assembled [unto] the king in the feast, this [is] the seventh month.
4
וַיָּבֹאוּ כֹּל זִקְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּשְׂאוּ הַלְוִיִּם אֶת־הָאָרוֹן
And all the elders of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.
Καὶ ἦλθον πάντες οἱ πρεσβύτεροι Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἔλαβον πάντες οἱ Λευῖται τὴν κιβωτὸν,
And all the elders of Israel came; and all the Levites took up the ark,
5
וַיַּעֲלוּ אֶת־הָאָרוֹן וְאֶת־אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד וְאֶת־כָּל־כְּלֵי הַקֹּדֶשׁ אֲשֶׁר בָּאֹהֶל הֶעֱלוּ אֹתָם הַכֹּהֲנִים הַלְוִיִּם
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 and the Levites bring up.
καὶ τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη τὰ ἅγια τὰ ἐν τῇ σκηνῇ, καὶ ἀνήνεγκαν αὐτὴν οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λευῖται.
and the tabernacle of witness, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle; and the priests and the Levites brought it up.
6
וְהַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה וְכָל־עֲדַת יִשְׂרָאֵל הַנּוֹעָדִים עָלָיו לִפְנֵי הָאָרוֹן מְזַבְּחִים צֹאן וּבָקָר אֲשֶׁר לֹא־יִסָּפְרוּ וְלֹא יִמָּנוּ מֵרֹב
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 counted nor numbered for multitude.
Καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Σαλωμὼν, καὶ πᾶσα συναγωγὴ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ οἱ φοβούμενοι, καὶ οἱ ἐπισυνηγμένοι αὐτῶν ἔμπροσθεν τῆς κιβωτοῦ θύοντες μόσχους καὶ πρόβατα, οἳ οὐκ ἀριθμηθήσονται καὶ οἳ οὐ λογισθήσονται ἀπὸ τοῦ πλήθους.
And King Solomon, and all the elders of Israel, and the religious of them, and they of them that were gathered before the ark, [were] sacrificing calves and sheep, which could not be numbered or reckoned for multitude.
7
וַיָּבִיאוּ הַכֹּהֲנִים אֶת־אֲרוֹן בְּרִית־יְהוָה אֶל־מְקוֹמוֹ אֶל־דְּבִיר הַבַּיִת אֶל־קֹדֶשׁ הַקְּדָשִׁים אֶל־תַּחַת כַּנְפֵי הַכְּרוּבִים
And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of HaShem unto its place, into the Sanctuary of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.
Καὶ εἰσήνεγκαν οἱ ἱερεῖς τὴν κιβωτὸν διαθήκης Κυρίου εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτῆς, εἰς τὸ δαβὶρ τοῦ οἴκου εἰς τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων, ὑποκάτω τῶν πτερύγων τῶν χερουβίμ.
And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, into the oracle of the house, [even] into the holy of holies, under the wings of the cherubs.
8
וַיִּהְיוּ הַכְּרוּבִים פֹּרְשִׂים כְּנָפַיִם עַל־מְקוֹם הָאָרוֹן וַיְכַסּוּ הַכְּרוּבִים עַל־הָאָרוֹן וְעַל־בַּדָּיו מִלְמָעְלָה
For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staves thereof above.
Καὶ ἦν τὰ χερουβὶμ διαπεπετακότα τὰς πτέρυγας αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον τῆς κιβωτοῦ, καὶ συνεκάλυπτε τὰ χερουβὶμ ἐπὶ τὴν κιβωτὸν, καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀναφορεῖς αὐτῆς ἐπάνωθεν,
And the cherubs stretched out their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubs covered the ark, and its staffs above.
9
וַיַּאֲרִיכוּ הַבַּדִּים וַיֵּרָאוּ רָאשֵׁי הַבַּדִּים מִן־הָאָרוֹן עַל־פְּנֵי הַדְּבִיר וְלֹא יֵרָאוּ הַחוּצָה וַיְהִי־שָׁם עַד הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה
And the staves were so long that the ends of the staves were seen from the ark before the Sanctuary; but they could not be seen without; and there they are unto this day.
καὶ ὑπερεῖχον οἱ ἀναφορεῖς, καὶ ἐβλέποντο αἱ κεφαλαὶ τῶν ἀναφορέων ἐκ τῶν ἁγίων εἰς πρόσωπον τοῦ δαβὶρ, οὐκ ἐβλέποντο ἔξω, καὶ ἦσαν ἐκεῖ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.
And the staffs projected, and the heads of the staffs were seen from the holy place in front of the oracle, they were not seen without: and there they were to this day.
10
אֵין בָּאָרוֹן רַק שְׁנֵי הַלֻּחוֹת אֲשֶׁר־נָתַן מֹשֶׁה בְּחֹרֵב אֲשֶׁר כָּרַת יְהוָה עִם־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּצֵאתָם מִמִּצְרָיִם
There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put there at Horeb, when HaShem made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.
Οὐκ ἦν ἐν τῇ κιβωτῷ πλὴν δύο πλάκες ἃς ἔθηκε Μωυσῆς ἐν Χωρὴβ, ἃ διέθετο Κύριος μετὰ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, ἐν τῷ ἐξελθεῖν αὐτοὺς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου.
There was nothing in the ark except the two tables which Moses placed [there] in Horeb, which God gave in covenant with the children of Israel, when they went out of the land of Egypt.
11
וַיְהִי בְּצֵאת הַכֹּהֲנִים מִן־הַקֹּדֶשׁ כִּי כָּל־הַכֹּהֲנִים הַנִּמְצְאִים הִתְקַדָּשׁוּ אֵין לִשְׁמוֹר לְמַחְלְקוֹת
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;
Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἐξελθεῖν τοὺς ἱερεῖς ἐκ τῶν ἁγίων, ὅτι πάντες οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ εὑρεθέντες ἡγιάσθησαν, οὐκ ἦσαν διατεταγμένοι κατʼ ἐφημερίαν.
And it came to pass, when the priests went out of the holy place (for all the priests that were found were sanctified, they were not [then] arranged according to their daily course),
12
וְהַלְוִיִּם הַמְשֹׁרֲרִים לְכֻלָּם לְאָסָף לְהֵימָן לִידֻתוּן וְלִבְנֵיהֶם וְלַאֲחֵיהֶם מְלֻבָּשִׁים בּוּץ בִּמְצִלְתַּיִם וּבִנְבָלִים וְכִנֹּרוֹת עֹמְדִים מִזְרָח לַמִּזְבֵּחַ וְעִמָּהֶם כֹּהֲנִים לְמֵאָה וְעֶשְׂרִים מחצררים מַחְצְרִים בַּחֲצֹצְרוֹת
also the Levites who 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 a hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets--
Καὶ οἱ Λευῖται οἱ ψαλτῳδοὶ πάντες τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἀσὰφ τῷ Αἰμὰν τῷ Ἰδιθοὺν καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ τῶν ἐνδεδυμένων στολὰς βασσίνας ἐν κυμβάλοις καὶ ἐν νάβλαις καὶ ἐν κινύραις, ἑστηκότες κατέναντι τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου, καὶ μετʼ αὐτῶν ἱερεῖς ἑκατὸν εἴκοσι σαλπίζοντες ταῖς σάλπιγξι.
that all the singing Levites [assigned] to the sons of Asaph, to Heman, to Jeduthun, and to his sons, and to his brethren, of them that were clothed in linen garments, with cymbals and lutes and harps, [were] standing before the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests, blowing trumpets.
13
וַיְהִי כְאֶחָד למחצצרים לַמְחַצְּרִים וְלַמְשֹׁרֲרִים לְהַשְׁמִיעַ קוֹל־אֶחָד לְהַלֵּל וּלְהֹדוֹת לַיהוָה וּכְהָרִים קוֹל בַּחֲצֹצְרוֹת וּבִמְצִלְתַּיִם וּבִכְלֵי הַשִּׁיר וּבְהַלֵּל לַיהוָה כִּי טוֹב כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּוֹ וְהַבַּיִת מָלֵא עָנָן בֵּית יְהוָה
it came even to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking HaShem; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised HaShem: 'for He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever'; that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of HaShem,
Καὶ ἐγένετο μία φωνὴ ἐν τῷ σαλπίζειν καὶ ἐν τῷ ψαλτῳδεῖν καὶ ἐν τῷ ἀναφωνεῖν φωνῇ μιᾷ τοῦ ἐξομολογεῖσθαι καὶ αἰνεῖν τῷ Κυρίῳ· καὶ ὡς ὕψωσαν φωνὴν ἐν σάλπιγξι, καὶ ἐν κυμβάλοις, καὶ ἐν ὀργάνοις τῶν ᾠδῶν, καὶ ἔλεγον, ἐξομολογεῖσθε τῷ Κυρίῳ, ὅτι ἀγαθὸν, ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ· καὶ ὁ οἶκος ἐνεπλήσθη νεφέλης δόξης Κυρίου.
And there was one voice in the trumpeting and in the psalm singing, and in the loud utterance with one voice to give thanks and praise the Lord; and when they raised their voice together with trumpets and cymbals, and instruments of music, and said, Give thanks to the Lord, for [it is] good, For his mercy [endures] forever— then the house was filled with the cloud of the glory of the Lord.
14
וְלֹא־י͏ָכְלוּ הַכֹּהֲנִים לַעֲמוֹד לְשָׁרֵת מִפְּנֵי הֶעָנָן כִּי־מָלֵא כְבוֹד־יְהוָה אֶת־בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִים
so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud; for the glory of HaShem filled the house of G-d.
Καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο οἱ ἱερεῖς τοῦ στῆναι λειτουργεῖν ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς νεφέλης, ὅτι ἐνέπλησε δόξα Κυρίου τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ.
And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.
