4 Then they brought up the ark of the Lord, athe tabernacle of meeting, and all the holy furnishings that were in the tabernacle. The priests and the Levites brought them up.
5 Also King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel who were assembled with him, were with him before the ark, asacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be counted or numbered for multitude.
6 Then the priests abrought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to bits place, into the inner sanctuary of the temple, to the Most Holy Place, cunder the wings of the cherubim.
7 For the cherubim spread their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim overshadowed the ark and its poles.
8 The poles aextended so that the ends of the poles could be seen from the holy place, in front of the inner sanctuary; but they could not be seen from outside. And they are there to this day.
9 aNothing was in the ark bexcept the two tablets of stone which Moses cput there at Horeb, dwhen the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
