Chronicles II 5:12 In-Context

10 There was nothing in the ark except the two tables which Moses placed in Choreb, which God gave in covenant with the children of Israel, when they went out of the land of Egypt.

11 And it came to pass, when the priests when out of the holy place, (for all the priests that were found were sanctified, they were not arranged according to their daily course,)

12 that all the singing Levites to the sons of Asaph, to Aeman, to Idithun, and to his sons, and to his brethren, of them that were clothed in linen garments, with cymbals and lutes and harps, standing before the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests, blowing trumpets.

13 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 good, for his mercy for ever:—then the house was filled with the cloud of the glory of the Lord.

14 And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.
