2 Chronicles 5:2-9

21ThenH227 SolomonH8010 assembledH6950 to JerusalemH3389 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 and allH3605 the headsH7218 of the tribesH4294, the leadersH5387 of the fathers’H1 households of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, 2to bringH5927 up the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068 out of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, whichH1931 is ZionH6726.

33AllH3605 the menH376 of IsraelH3478 assembledH6950 themselves to the kingH4428 at 4the feastH2282, that is in the seventhH7637 monthH2320.

4Then allH3605 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935, and 5the LevitesH3881 tookH5375 up the arkH727.

5They broughtH5927 up the arkH727 and the tentH168 of meetingH4150 and allH3605 the holyH6944 utensilsH3627 whichH834 were in the tentH168; the LeviticalH3881 priestsH3548 broughtH5927 them up.

6And KingH4428 SolomonH8010 and allH3605 the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 who were assembledH3259 with him beforeH6440 the arkH727, were sacrificingH2076 6so manyH7230 sheepH6629 and oxenH1241 that they could not be countedH5608 or numberedH4487.

7Then the priestsH3548 broughtH935 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068 to its placeH4725, into the innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687 of the houseH1004, to the holyH6944 of holiesH6944, underH8478 the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742.

8For the cherubimH3742 spreadH6566 their wingsH3671 overH5921 the placeH4725 of the arkH727, so that the cherubimH3742 madeH3680 a coveringH3680 overH5921 the arkH727 and its 7polesH905.

9The polesH905 were so longH748 that 8the endsH7218 of the polesH905 of the arkH727 could be seenH7200 in frontH6440 of the innerH1687 sanctuaryH1687, but they could not be seenH7200 outsideH2351; and 9they are thereH8033 to thisH2088 dayH3117.
