2 Chronicles 5:2-10


2 aThen Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the leaders of the fathers’ households of the sons of Israel to Jerusalem, bto bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh from the city of David, which is Zion.
3 aAnd all the men of Israel assembled themselves to the king at bthe feast, that is in the seventh month. 4 Then all the elders of Israel came, and athe Levites carried the ark. 5 And they brought up the ark and the tent of meeting and all the holy utensils which were in the tent; the Levitical priests brought them up. 6 And King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel who congregated with him before the ark, were sacrificing 1so many sheep and oxen that they could not be counted or numbered. 7 Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the Holy of Holies, under the wings of the cherubim. 8 And the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim made a covering over the ark and its poles from above. 9 But the poles were so long that athe ends of the poles of the ark could be seen before the inner sanctuary, but they could not be seen outside; and 1they are there to this day. 10 aThere was nothing in the ark except the two tablets which Moses put there at Horeb, where Yahweh cut a covenant with the sons of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.
