1 N ow it came to pass on a sabbath, that he was going through the grainfields; and his disciples plucked the ears, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.

وَفِي أحَدِ أيّامِ السَّبتِ كانَ يَسُوعُ مارّاً فِي بَعضِ الحُقُولِ. وَكانَ تَلامِيذُهُ يَقطِفُونَ السَّنابِلَ، ثُمَّ يَفرُكُونَها بِأيدِيهِمْ وَيَأْكُلُونَها.

2 B ut certain of the Pharisees said, Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day?

فَقالَ بَعضُ الفِرِّيْسِيِّينَ: «لِماذا تَفعَلُونَ ما لا يَجُوزُ فِعلُهُ فِي السَّبتِ؟»

3 A nd Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read even this, what David did, when he was hungry, he, and they that were with him;

فَأجابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ وَقالَ: «ألَمْ تَقرَأُوا فِي الكِتابِ ما فَعَلَهُ داوُدُ عِندَما جاعَ هُوَ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ؟

4 h ow he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the showbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat save for the priests alone?

لَقَدْ دَخَلَ إلَى بَيتِ اللهِ، وَأخَذَ أرغِفَةَ الخُبزِ المُقَدَّمَةَ إلَى اللهِ، وَأكَلَ مِنها وَأعطَى أيضاً الَّذِيْنَ كانُوا مَعَهُ. وَلا يَجُوزُ لِأحَدٍ أنْ يَأْكُلَ ذَلِكَ الخُبزَ سِوَى الكَهَنَةِ.»

5 A nd he said unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.

ثُمَّ قالَ لَهُمْ: «ابْنُ الإنسانِ هُوَ رَبُّ السَّبتِ.» يَسُوعُ يَشفِي في يَومِ السَّبت

6 A nd it came to pass on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man there, and his right hand was withered.

وَفِي سَبتٍ آخَرَ، دَخَلَ يَسُوعُ المَجمَعَ لِيُعَلِّمَ. وَكانَ هُناكَ رَجُلٌ يَدُهُ اليُمنَى مَشلُولَةٌ.

7 A nd the scribes and the Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find how to accuse him.

أمّا مُعَلِّمُو الشَّرِيعَةِ وَالفِرِّيْسِيِّونَ فَكانوا يُراقِبُونَ يَسُوعَ لِيَرَوا إنْ كانَ سَيَشفِي أحَداً فِي السَّبتِ، وَذَلِكَ لِيَجِدوا مُبَرِّراً لِتَوجِيهِ تُهمَةٍ إلَيهِ.

8 B ut he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man that had his hand withered, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.

فَعَرَفَ يَسُوعُ أفكارَهُمْ، فَقالَ لِلرَّجُلِ ذِي اليَدِ المَشلُولَةِ: «انهَضْ وَقِفْ أمامَ الجَمِيعِ!» فَنَهَضَ الرَّجُلُ وَوَقَفَ أمامَ الجَمِيعِ.

9 A nd Jesus said unto them, I ask you, Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do harm? to save a life, or to destroy it?

فَقالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «أُرِيدُ أنْ أسألَكُمْ: هَلْ يَجُوزُ فِعلُ الخَيرِ أمْ فِعلُ الأذَى في يَومِ السَّبتِ؟ أيَجُوزُ إنقاذُ حَياةِ إنسانٍ أمْ إهلاكُها؟»

10 A nd he looked round about on them all, and said unto him, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored.

وَنَظَرَ يَسُوعُ حَولَهُ إلَيْهِمْ كُلِّهِمْ، ثُمَّ قالَ لِلرَّجُلِ: «مُدَّ يَدَكَ،» فَمَدَّها، فَشُفِيَتْ!

11 B ut they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.

لَكِنَّهُمُ امتَلأُوا غَضَباً شَدِيداً، وَأخَذوا يَتَشاورونَ حَولَ ما يُمكِنُهُمْ أنْ يَفعَلُوهُ لِيَسُوعَ. يَسُوعُ يَختارُ الاثنَي عَشَر

12 A nd it came to pass in these days, that he went out into the mountain to pray; and he continued all night in prayer to God.

وَفِي تِلكَ الأيّامِ، خَرَجَ يَسُوعُ إلَى جَبَلٍ لِيُصَلِّي، وَأمضَى اللَّيلَةَ فِي الصَّلاةِ.

13 A nd when it was day, he called his disciples; and he chose from them twelve, whom also he named apostles:

وَلَمّا جاءَ النَّهارُ، دَعا تَلامِيذَهُ، وَاختارَ مِنْ بَينِهِمُ اثنَي عَشَرَ سَمّاهُمْ رُسُلاً.

14 S imon, whom he also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew,

وَهُمْ: سِمعانُ الَّذِي سَمّاهُ أيضاً بُطرُسَ، أندراوُسُ أخُو بُطرُسَ، يَعقُوبُ، يُوحَنّا، فِيلِيبُّسُ، بَرثُولَماوُسُ،

15 a nd Matthew and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot,

مَتَّى، تُوما، يَعقُوبُ بْنَ حَلفَى، سِمعانُ الَّذِي يُدعَى أيضاً «الغَيُورُ،»

16 a nd Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor;

يَهُوذا بنَ يَعقُوبَ، يَهُوذا الإسْخَريُوطِّيَّ الَّذِي أصبَحَ خائِناً. يَسُوعُ يُعَلِّمُ وَيَشفِي

17 a nd he came down with them, and stood on a level place, and a great multitude of his disciples, and a great number of the people from all Judaea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;

ثُمَّ نَزَلَ يَسُوعُ عَنِ الجَبَلِ وَوَقَفَ عَلَى أرْضٍ مُنبَسِطَةٍ، وَكانَ هُناكَ جَمعٌ عَظِيمٌ مِنْ أتباعِهِ، وَعَدَدٌ كَبِيرٌ مِنَ النّاسِ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أنحاءِ مِنْطَقَةِ اليَهُودِيَّةِ وَمِنْ مَدينَةِ القُدسِ وَمِنْ ساحِلِ صُورَ وَصَيداءَ.

18 a nd they that were troubled with unclean spirits were healed.

كانَ هَؤُلاءِ قَدْ جاءُوا لِيَستَمِعُوا إلَيهِ، وَلِيُشفُوا مِنْ أمراضِهِمْ. وَشُفِيَ أيضاً المُتَضايِقُونَ مِنْ أرواحٍ شِرِّيرَةٍ.

19 A nd all the multitude sought to touch him; for power came forth from him, and healed them all.

وَكانَ الجُمهُورُ يَسعَى إلَى لَمسِهِ. فَقَدْ كانَتْ تَخرُجُ مِنهُ قُوَّةٌ وَتَشفِيهِمْ جَمِيعاً.

20 A nd he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed are ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.

ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَسُوعُ نَظَرَهُ إلَى تَلامِيذِهِ وَقالَ: «هَنِيئاً لَكُمْ أيُّها المَساكِينُ، لِأنَّ مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ قَدْ أُعطِيَ لَكُمْ.

21 B lessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.

هَنِيئاً لَكُمْ يا مَنْ أنتُمْ جِياعٌ الآنَ، لِأنَّكُمْ سَتُشبَعُونَ. هَنِيئاً لَكُمْ يا مَنْ تَبكُونَ الآنَ، لِأنَّكُمْ سَتَضحَكُونَ.

22 B lessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

هَنِيئاً لَكُمْ عِندَما يُبغِضُكُمُ النّاسُ وَيَرفضونَكُمْ بِحِجَّةِ أنَّكُمْ أشرارٌ، فَقَطْ لِأنَّكُمْ تَتبَعُونَ ابنَ الإنسانِ.

23 R ejoice in that day, and leap for joy: for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for in the same manner did their fathers unto the prophets.

ابتَهِجُوا فِي ذَلِكَ اليَومِ وَافرَحُوا فَرَحاً عَظِيماً. فَها هِيَ مُكافَأتُكُمْ عَظِيمَةٌ فِي السَّماءِ! فَآباؤهُمْ فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ مَعَ الأنبِياءِ.

24 B ut woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

«الوَيلُ لَكُمْ أيُّها الأغنِياءُ، لِأنَّكُمْ قَدْ نِلتُمْ نَصِيْبَكُمْ مِنَ الرّاحَةِ.

25 W oe unto you, ye that are full now! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you, ye that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.

الوَيلُ لَكُمْ يا مَنْ شَبِعتُمُ الآنَ، لِأنَّكُمْ سَتَجُوعُونَ. الوَيلُ لَكُمْ يا مَنْ تَضحَكُونَ الآنَ، لِأنَّكُمْ سَتَنُوحُونَ وَتَبكُونَ.

26 W oe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for in the same manner did their fathers to the false prophets.

الوَيلُ لَكُمْ عِندَما يَمدَحُكُمْ جَمِيعُ النّاسِ، فَآباؤهُمْ فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ مَعَ الأنبِياءِ المُزَيَّفِينَ. أحِبُّوا أعداءَكُم

27 B ut I say unto you that hear, Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you,

«أمّا أنتُمْ أيُّها السّامِعُونَ، فَأقُولُ لَكُمْ: أحِبُّوا أعداءَكُمْ، اصنَعُوا خَيراً مَعَ مَنْ يُبغِضُونَكُمْ.

28 b less them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you.

بارِكُوا لاعِنِيكُمْ، وَصَلُّوا لِأجلِ الَّذِينَ يُسِيئُونَ مُعامَلَتَكُمْ.

29 T o him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and from him that taketh away thy cloak withhold not thy coat also.

إذا لَطَمَكَ أحَدٌ عَلَى خَدِّكَ، فَقَدِّمْ لَهُ الخَدَّ الآخَرَ أيضاً. وَإذا أخَذَ أحَدُهُمْ مِعطَفَكَ، فَدَعهُ يَأخُذُ قَمِيصَكَ أيضاً.

30 G ive to every one that asketh thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

أعطِ كُلَّ مَنْ يَطلُبُ مِنكَ. وَإذا أخَذَ أحَدُهُمْ مالَكَ، فَلا تُطالِبْ باستِرجاعِهِ.

31 A nd as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

وَكَما تُحِبُّ أنْ يُعامِلَكَ الآخَرُونَ، هَكَذا عَلَيكَ أنْ تُعامِلَهُمْ.

32 A nd if ye love them that love you, what thank have ye? for even sinners love those that love them.

«إنْ أحبَبْتُمْ مَنْ يُحِبُّونَكُمْ فَقَط، فَأيَّ مَدِيحٍ تَستَحِقُّونَ؟ فَحَتَّى الخُطاةُ يُحِبُّونَ مَنْ يُحِبُّونَهُمْ.

33 A nd if ye do good to them that do good to you, what thank have ye? for even sinners do the same.

وَإنْ صَنَعتُمْ خَيراً لِمَنْ يَصنَعُونَ الخَيرَ لَكُمْ، فَأيَّ مَدِيحٍ تَستَحِقُّونَ؟ فَحَتَّى الخُطاةُ يَفعَلُونَ هَذا.

34 A nd if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? even sinners lend to sinners, to receive again as much.

وَإنْ أقرَضْتُمُ الَّذِينَ تَأْمَلُونَ أنْ تَستَرِدُّوا مِنهُمْ مالَكُمْ، فَأيَّ مَدِيحٍ تَستَحِقُّونَ؟ فَحَتَّى الخُطاةُ يُقرِضُونَ الخُطاةَ، لِيَستَرِدُّوا مالَهُمْ كامِلاً.

35 B ut love your enemies, and do them good, and lend, never despairing; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High: for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.

«لَكِنْ أحِبُّوا أعداءَكُمْ، وَاصنَعُوا الخَيرَ لَهُمْ. أقرِضُوا وَلا تَنتَظِرُوا أنْ تَستَرِدُّوا شَيئاً، فَتَكُونَ مُكافَأتَكُمْ عَظِيمَةٌ، وَتَكُونُونَ أبناءَ اللهِ العَلِيِّ. فَهوَ كَرِيمٌ حَتَّى نَحوَ النّاكِرِيْنَ لِلجَمِيلِ وَلِلأشرارِ.

36 B e ye merciful, even as your Father is merciful.

كُونُوا رُحَماءَ كَما أنَّ أباكُمْ رَحِيمٌ. انظُرُوا إلَى أنفُسِكُم

37 A nd judge not, and ye shall not be judged: and condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: release, and ye shall be released:

«لا تَحكُمُوا عَلَى الآخَرِيْنَ، فَلا يُحكَمَ عَلَيكُمْ. لا تَدِينُوا الآخَرِينَ، فَلا تُدانُوا. سامِحُوا الآخَرِيْنَ فَتُسامَحُوا.

38 g ive, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again.

أعطُوا الآخَرِينَ فَتُعطَوا. فَسَيَضَعونَ في أحضانِكُمْ كَيلاً كَبِيْراً مُلبَّداً مَهزُوزاً فائِضاً. فَبِالكَيلِ الَّذِي تَكِيلُونَ بِهِ لِلآخَرِيْنَ سَيُكالُ لَكُمْ.»

39 A nd he spake also a parable unto them, Can the blind guide the blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?

وَقالَ لَهُمْ أيضاً هَذا المَثَلَ: «هَلْ يَستَطِيعُ أعمَى أنْ يَقُودَ أعمَى؟ أفَلا يَقَعُ الاثنانِ فِي حُفرَةٍ؟

40 T he disciple is not above his teacher: but every one when he is perfected shall be as his teacher.

فَما مِنْ تِلمِيذٍ أفضَلُ مِنْ مُعَلِّمِهِ. بَلْ مَتَى تَدَرَّبَ إنسانٌ تَدرِيباً كامِلاً، صارَ مِثلَ مُعَلِّمِهِ.

41 A nd why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

«لِماذا تَرَى القَشَّةَ فِي عَينِ أخِيكَ لَكِنَّكَ لا تُلاحِظُ الخَشَبَةَ الكَبِيْرَةَ فِي عَينِكَ أنتَ؟

42 O r how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.

وَكَيفَ يُمكِنُكَ أنْ تَقُولَ لِأخِيكَ: يا أخِي، دَعنِي أُخرِجُ القَشَّةَ مِنْ عَينِكَ، وَأنتَ لا تَرَى الخَشَبَةَ الَّتي فِي عَينِكَ؟ يا مُنافِقُ! أخرِجْ أوَّلاً الخَشَبَةَ مِنْ عَينِكَ، وَبَعدَ ذَلِكَ سَتَرَى بِوُضُوحٍ لإخراجِ القَشَّةِ مِنْ عَينِ أخِيكَ. نَوعانِ مِنَ الثِّمار

43 F or there is no good tree that bringeth forth corrupt fruit; nor again a corrupt tree that bringeth forth good fruit.

«الشَّجَرَةُ الجَيِّدَةُ لا تَحمِلُ ثَمَراً رَدِيئاً، وَالشَّجَرَةُ الرَّدِيئَةُ لا تَحمِلُ ثَمَراً جَيِّداً.

44 F or each tree is known by its own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

فَكُلُّ شَجَرَةٍ تُعْرَفُ مِنْ ثَمَرِها. لا يَجني النّاسُ التِّيْنَ مِنَ الأشواكِ، وَلا يَقطِفُونَ العِنَبَ عَنْ شُجَيرَةِ العُلَّيْقِ!

45 T he good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth that which is evil: for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

فَالإنسانُ الصّالِحُ يُخرِجُ ما هُوَ صالِحٌ مِنَ الصَّلاحِ المَخزُونِ فِي قَلبِهِ، وَالإنسانُ الشِّرِّيْرُ يُخرِجُ ما هُوَ شِرِّيرٌ مِنَ الشَّرِّ المَخزُونِ فِي قَلبِهِ. لِأنَّ الفَمَ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِما يَمتَلِئُ بِهِ القَلبُ. نَوعانِ مِنَ النّاس

46 A nd why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

«لِماذا تَدعُونَنِي: ‹يا رَبُّ، يا رَبُّ،› وَلا تَفعَلُونَ ما أقُولُ؟

47 E very one that cometh unto me, and heareth my words, and doeth them, I will show you to whom he is like:

دَعُونِي أُشَبِّهُ لَكُمْ كُلَّ مَنْ يَأْتِي إلَيَّ، وَيَسمَعُ تَعالِيْمِي وَيُطِيعُها.

48 h e is like a man building a house, who digged and went deep, and laid a foundation upon the rock: and when a flood arose, the stream brake against that house, and could not shake it: because it had been well builded.

إنَّهُ أشبَهُ بِرَجُلٍ يَبنِي بَيتاً، فَحَفَرَ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ عَمِيقاً، وَوَضَعَ الأساسَ عَلَى الصَّخرِ. وَعِندَما جاءَ الفَيَضانُ، ارتَطَمَ النَّهرُ بِذَلِكَ البَيتِ، لَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَقدِرْ أنْ يَهُزَّهُ لِأنَّهُ كانَ حَسَنَ البِناءِ.

49 B ut he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that built a house upon the earth without a foundation; against which the stream brake, and straightway it fell in; and the ruin of that house was great.

«أمّا الشَّخصُ الَّذِي يَسمَعُ تَعالِيمِي وَلا يُطِيْعُها، فَهُوَ أشبَهُ بِرَجُلٍ بَنَى بَيْتَهُ عَلَى الأرْضِ دُونَ أساسٍ قَوِيٍّ. فَارتَطَمَ بِهِ النَّهرُ، فَسَقَطَ فَوراً. وَدُمِّرَ البَيتُ تَدمِيراً كامِلاً.»
