¹Toy izany no nahavitana ny asa rehetra nataon'i Solomona ho amin'ny tranon'i Jehovah; ary nampidirin'i Solomona ny zavatra rehetra izay efa nohamasinin'i Davida rainy dia ny volafotsy sy ny volamena; ary ny fanaka rehetra dia nataony tao amin'ny rakitry ny tranon'Andriamanitra.

¹Thus all the work that Solomon did for the house of Yahweh was finished. Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, even the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels, and put them in the treasuries of the house of God.

²[Ny nitokanana ny tempoly] Ary tamin'izany dia novorin'i Solomona ny loholon'ny Isiraely sy ny lehiben'ny firenena rehetra, dia ny lohan'ny fianakavian'ny Zanak'isiraely ho any Jerosalema hampakatra ny fiaran'ny faneken'i Jehovah avy any Ziona, Tanànan'i Davida.

²Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers’ households of the children of Israel, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh out of the city of David, which is Zion.

³Dia nivory ho any amin'ny mpanjaka ny lehilahy rehetra amin'ny Isiraely tamin'ny andro firavoravoana tamin'ny volana fahafito.

³And all the men of Israel assembled themselves to the king at the feast, which was in the seventh month.

⁴Ary tonga koa ny loholon'ny Isiraely rehetra, ka ny Levita no nitondra ny fiara,

⁴All the elders of Israel came: and the Levites took up the ark;

⁵dia nampakariny ny fiara sy ny trano-lay fihaonana ary ny fanaka masina rehetra izay tao amin'ny lay. Nampakarin'ny Levita mpisorona ireo zavatra ireo.

⁵and they brought up the ark, and the Tent of Meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; these the priests the Levites brought up.

⁶Ary Solomona mpanjaka sy ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, izay nivory teo aminy teo anoloan'ny fiara, dia samy namono zavatra hatao fanatitra, dia ondry aman'osy sy omby izay tsy tambo isaina sady tsy hita isa noho ny hamaroany.

⁶King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled to him, were before the ark, sacrificing sheep and cattle, that could not be counted nor numbered for multitude.

⁷Ary ny fiaran'ny faneken'i Jehovah dia nampidirin'ny mpisorona ho ao amin'ny fitoerany tao anatin'ny efi-trano anatiny, dia ny fitoerana masina indrindra, teo ambanin'ny elatry ny kerobima;

⁷The priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

⁸fa nivelatra tambonin'ny fitoeran'ny fiara ny elatry ny kerobima ka nanaloka ny fiara sy ny baony.

⁸For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its poles above.

⁹Ary lava ny bao, ka hita ny lohany, raha eo amin'ny fiara eo anoloan'ny efitra matiny nefa tsy hita eny ivelany, ary mbola ao mandraka androany izy.

⁹The poles were so long that the ends of the poles were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen outside: and there it is to this day.

¹⁰Ary tsy nisy na inona na inona tao anatin'ny fiara afa-tsy ny vato fisaka roa ihany izay nataon'i Mosesy tao anatiny fony tany Horeba, tamin'i Jehovah nanao fanekena tamin'ny Zanak'isiraely, tamin'ny nivoahany avy tany Egypta.

¹⁰There was nothing in the ark except the two tables which Moses put at Horeb, when Yahweh made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

¹¹Ary nony nivoaka avy tao amin'ny fitoerana masina ny mpisorona (fa ny mpisorona rehetra izay teo dia samy efa nanamasina ny tenany, fa tsy mba nifandimby isan-toko taminy izay),

¹¹It happened, when the priests had come out of the holy place, (for all the priests who were present had sanctified themselves, and didn’t keep their divisions;

¹²ary ny Levita mpihira rehetra, dia Asafa sy Hemana sy Jedotona mbamin'ny zanany sy ny rahalahiny, izay nitafy rongony fotsy madinita sady nitondra kipantsona sy valiha ary lokanga, dia nitsangana teo atsinanan'ny alitara, ary teo aminy koa nisy pisorona roa-polo amby zato nitsoka trompetra;

¹²also the Levites who were the singers, all of them, even Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and their brothers, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals and stringed instruments and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them one hundred twenty priests sounding with trumpets;)

¹³ary efa toy ny feo iray no fandrenesana ny mpitsoka trompetra sy ny mpihira, raha nidera sy nisaotra an'i Jehovah izy; ka nony nanandratra ny feony izy sady nampaneno ny trompetra sy ny kipantsona sy ny zava-maneno isan-karazany ka nidera an'i Jehovah fa tsara Izy, fa mandrakizay ny famindram-pony, dia feno rahona ny tranon'i Jehovah;ka dia tsy nahajanona hanao fanompoam-pivavahana ny mpisorona noho ny rahona; fa feno ny voninahitr'i Jehovah ny tranon'Andriamanitra.

¹³it happened, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking Yahweh; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised Yahweh, saying, “For he is good; for his loving kindness endures forever!” that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of Yahweh,

¹⁴ka dia tsy nahajanona hanao fanompoam-pivavahana ny mpisorona noho ny rahona; fa feno ny voninahitr'i Jehovah ny tranon'Andriamanitra.

¹⁴so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of Yahweh filled God’s house.
