1 ب َعدَ هَذِهِ الأحداثِ، عَيَّنَ الرَّبُّ اثْنَينِ وَسَبعِينَ آخَرِيْنَ. وَأرسَلَهُمْ أمامَهُ إلَى كُلِّ بَلدَةٍ وَمَكانٍ يَنوِي الذَّهابَ إلَيْهِ.
After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go.
2 و َقالَ لَهُمْ: «الحَصادُ كَثِيْرٌ، لَكِنَّ الحَصّادِيْنَ قَلِيلُونَ. فَصَلُّوا لِرَبِّ الحَصادِ أنْ يُرسِلَ حَصّادِينَ إلَى الحَصادِ.
Then He said to them, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.
3 « اذهَبُوا! وَتَذَكَّرُوا بِأنِّي أُرسِلُكُمْ كَحِملانٍ بَيْنَ ذِئابٍ.
Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
4 ل ا تَحمِلُوا مَعَكُمْ مِحفَظَةً أوْ حَقِيبَةً أوْ حِذاءً، وَلا تُحَيُّوا أحَداً فِي الطَّرِيقِ.
Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and greet no one along the road.
5 و َعِندَما تَدخُلُونَ أيَّ بَيتٍ، قُولُوا أوَّلاً: ‹لِيَحِلَّ السَّلامُ عَلَى هَذا البَيتِ.›
But whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’
6 ف َإنْ كانَ فِيْهِ مُحِبٌّ لِلسَّلامِ، فَسَيَحِلُّ سَلامُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ. وَإلّا، فَإنَّ سَلامَكُمْ سَيَرجِعُ إلَيْكُمْ.
And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on it; if not, it will return to you.
7 و َأقِيْمُوا فِي ذَلِكَ البَيتِ، وَكُلُوا وَاشرَبُوا مِنْ كُلِّ ما يُقَدِّمُونَهُ لَكُمْ، فَالعامِلُ يَستَحِقُّ أُجرَتَهُ. وَلا تَمكُثُوا فِي بُيُوتٍ مُختَلِفَةٍ أثناءَ إقامَتِكُمْ فِي مَدِيْنَةٍ.
And remain in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.
8 « وَمَتَى دَخَلْتُمْ مَدِيْنَةً وَلَقِيْتُمْ تَرحِيباً مِنْ أهلِها، فَكُلُوا ما يُوضَعُ أمامَكُمْ.
Whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you.
9 و َاشفُوا المَرضَى فِي تِلكَ المَدِيْنَةِ، وَقُولُوا لِأهلِها: ‹لَقَدِ اقتَرَبَ مِنكُمْ مَلَكُوتُ اللهِ!›
And heal the sick there, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’
10 « فَإذا دَخَلْتُمْ مَدِيْنَةً، وَلَمْ يُرَحِّبْ بِكُمْ أهلُها، اخرُجُوا إلَى شَوارِعِها وَقُولُوا:
But whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,
11 ‹ حَتَّى غُبارُ مَدِيْنَتِكُمُ الَّذِي عَلِقَ بِأقدامِنا نَنفُضُهُ عَلَيْكُمْ! وَلَكِنِ اعلَمُوا أنَّ مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ قَدِ اقتَرَبَ!›
‘The very dust of your city which clings to us we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.’
12 أ قُولُ لَكُمْ إنَّ حالَ أهلِ سَدُومَ فِي يَومِ الدَّيْنُونَةِ سَيَكُونُ أهوَنَ مِنْ حالِ تِلكَ المَدِيْنَةِ.» يَسُوعُ يُحَذِّرُ المُدَنَ الخاطئة
But I say to you that it will be more tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that city. Woe to the Impenitent Cities
13 « الوَيلُ لَكِ يا كُورْزِيْنُ! الوَيلُ لَكِ يا بَيْتَ صَيدا! لِأنَّهُ لَوْ جَرَتِ المُعجِزاتُ الَّتِي جَرَتْ فِيْكُما فِي صُورَ وَصَيداءَ، لَتابَتا مُنذُ زَمَنٍ بَعِيدٍ، وَلارتَدَى أهلُها الخَيشَ، وَجَلَسُوا عَلَى الرَّمادِ.
“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 ل ِهَذا سَيَكُونُ حالُ أهلِ صُورَ وَصَيداءَ أهوَنَ مِنْ حالِكُما يَومَ الدَّينُونَةِ.
But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you.
15 و َأنتِ يا كَفْرَناحُومَ، هَلْ تَتَوَهَّمِيْنَ أنَّكِ سَتُرفَعِينَ إلَى السَّماءِ؟ لا، بَلْ سَتَهبِطِيْنَ إلَى الهاوِيَةِ!
And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades.
16 م َنْ يُطِيْعُكُمْ يا تَلامِيذِي يُطِيْعُنِي، وَمَنْ يَرفُضُكُمْ يَرفُضُنِي، وَمَنْ يَرفُضُنِي يَرفُضُ ذاكَ الَّذِي أرسَلَنِي.» سُقُوطُ الشَّيْطان
He who hears you hears Me, he who rejects you rejects Me, and he who rejects Me rejects Him who sent Me.” The Seventy Return with Joy
17 و َعادَ الاثنانِ وَالسَّبعُونَ بِفَرَحٍ وَقالُوا: «يا رَبُّ، حَتَّى الأرواحُ الشِّرِّيْرَةُ تَخضَعُ لَنا عِندَما نَأْمُرُها باسْمِكَ!»
Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.”
18 ف َقالَ لَهُمْ: «لَقَدْ رَأيتُ الشَّيطانَ ساقِطاً كَبَرقٍ مِنَ السَّماءِ!
And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.
19 ه ا قَدْ أعطَيتُكُمْ سُلطاناً لِكَي تَدُوسُوا الأفاعِيَ وَالعَقارِبَ، وَسُلطاناً عَلَى كُلِّ قُوَّةِ العَدُوِّ، وَلَنْ يُؤذِيَكُمْ شَيءٌ.
Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 ل َكِنْ لا تَفرَحُوا لِأنَّ الأرواحَ الشِّرِّيْرَةَ تَخضَعُ لَكُمْ، بَلِ افرَحُوا لِأنَّ أسماءَكُمْ مَكتُوبَةٌ فِي السَّماءِ.» يَسُوعُ يُصَلِّي إلَى الآب
Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.” Jesus Rejoices in the Spirit
21 و َفِي تِلكَ اللَّحظَةِ امتَلأ يَسُوعُ فَرَحاً مِنَ الرُّوحِ القُدُسِ، وَقالَ: «أشكُرُكَ أيُّها الآبُ، رَبَّ السَّماءِ وَالأرْضِ. فَقَدْ أخفَيْتَ هَذِهِ الأُمُورَ عَنِ الحُكَماءِ وَالأذكِياءِ، وَكَشَفْتَها لِلبُسَطاءِ كَالأطفالِ. نَعَمْ يا أبِي، لِأنَّكَ سُرِرْتَ بِعَمَلِ هَذا.
In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.
22 ل َقَدْ سَلَّمَنِي الآبُ كُلَّ شَيءٍ. فَلا أحَدَ يَعرِفُ الابْنَ إلّا الآبُ، وَلا أحَدَ يَعرِفُ الآبَ إلّا الابْنُ وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَشاءُ الابنُ أنْ يَكشِفَ لَهُ.»
All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. ”
23 ب َعْدَ ذَلِكَ، انْفَرَدَ يَسوعُ بِتَلاميذِهِ، وَالتَفَتَ إلَيْهِمْ وَقالَ: «هَنِيْئاً لِلعُيُونِ الَّتِي تَرَى ما أنتُمْ تَرَونَهُ الآنَ
Then He turned to His disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see;
24 ل ِأنِّي أقُولُ لَكُمْ إنَّ مُلُوكاً وَأنبِياءَ كَثِيْرِينَ اشتَهُوا أنْ يَرَوا ما تَرَونَ وَلَمْ يَرَوا، وَاشْتَهَوا أنْ يَسمَعُوا ما تَسمَعُونَ وَلَمْ يَسمَعُوا.» السّامِرِيُّ الصّالِح
for I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear, and have not heard it. ” The Parable of the Good Samaritan
25 ث ُمَّ وَقَفَ واحِدٌ مِنْ خُبَراءِ الشَّرِيعَةِ لِيَمتَحِنَ يَسُوعَ، فَسَألَهُ: «يا مُعَلِّمُ، ماذا يَنْبَغِيُ أنْ أفعَلَ لِكَي أنالَ الحَياةَ الأبَدِيَّةَ؟»
And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
26 ف َقالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «ما المَكتُوبُ فِي الشَّرِيعَةِ؟ وَكَيفَ تَفهَمُهُ؟»
He said to him, “What is written in the law? What is your reading of it? ”
27 ف َأجابَ: «مَكتُوبٌ: ‹تُحِبُّ الرَّبَّ إلَهَكَ بِكُلِّ قَلبِكَ، وَبِكُلِّ نَفسِكَ، وَبِكُلِّ قُوَّتِكَ، وَبِكُلِّ عَقلِكَ،› وَمَكتوبٌ أيضاً: ‹تُحِبُّ صاحِبَكَ كَما تُحِبُّ نَفسَكَ.› »
So he answered and said, “ ‘You shall love the L ord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’ ”
28 ف َقالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «هَذا صَحِيْحٌ، افعَلْ هَذا وَسَتَحيا.»
And He said to him, “You have answered rightly; do this and you will live.”
29 ل َكِنَّ الرَّجُلَ أرادَ أنْ يُبَرِّرَ سُؤالَهُ، فَقالَ لِيَسُوعَ: «وَمَنْ هُوَ صاحِبي؟»
But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 ف َأجابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «كانَ رَجُلٌ نازِلاً مِنَ القُدسِ إلَى أرِيحا، فَوَقَعَ فِي أيدِي لُصُوصٍ. فَجَرَّدُوهُ مِنْ مَلابِسِهِ وَضَرَبُوهُ، ثُمَّ مَضُوا وَتَرَكُوهُ بَيْنَ الحَياةِ وَالمَوتِ.
Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31 ف َمَرَّ بِهِ كاهِنٌ كانَ نازِلاً مِنْ تِلكَ الطَّرِيْقِ. فَلَمّا رَآهُ، ذَهَبَ إلَى الجانِبِ الآخَرِ مِنَ الطَّرِيقِ دُونَ أنْ يَلتَفِتَ إلَيهِ.
Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 و َكَذَلِكَ مَرَّ لاوِيٌّ مِنْ ذَلِكَ المَكانِ وَرَأى الرَّجُلَ المَضْرُوبَ، فَذَهَبَ إلَى الجانِبِ الآخَرِ أيضاً.
Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side.
33 ل َكِنَّ سامِرِيّاً مُسافِراً مَرَّ بِهِ أيضاً. وَحِينَ رَآهُ تَحَنَّنَ عَلَيْهِ.
But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had compassion.
34 ف َاقتَرَبَ مِنهُ وَضَمَّدَ جِراحَهُ بَعدَ أنْ سَكَبَ عَلَيها زَيتَ زَيتُونٍ وَنَبيذاً. ثُمَّ وَضَعَهُ عَلَى دابَّتِهِ، وَأخَذَهُ إلَى فُندُقٍ وَاعتَنَى بِهِ هُناكَ.
So he went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; and he set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 و َفِي اليَومِ التّالِي أخرَجَ دِينارَيْنِ مِنَ الفِضَّةِ وَأعطاهُما لِصاحِبِ الفَندُقِ، وَقالَ لَهُ: ‹اعتَنِ بِهِ، وَمَهما زادَ ما تَصرُفُهُ فَإنِّي سَأُعَوِّضُكَ حِيْنَ أعُودُ.›
On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I come again, I will repay you.’
36 ف َمَنْ مِنَ الثَّلاثَةِ تَصَرَّفَ كَصاحِبٍ حَقِيقِيٍّ لِلرَّجُلِ الَّذِي وَقَعَ فِي أيدِي اللُّصُوصِ فِي اعتِقادِكَ؟»
So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?”
37 ق الَ الخَبِيْرُ فِي الشَّرِيعَةِ: «الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي أظهَرَ لَهُ رَحمَةً.» فَقالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «فَاذْهَبْ وَافعَلْ كَما فَعَلَ.» مَريَمُ وَمَرثا
And he said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.” Mary and Martha Worship and Serve
38 و َبَينَما كانَ يَسُوعُ وَتَلامِيذُهُ سائِرِينَ، دَخَلُوا بَلدَةً، حَيثُ اسْتَضافَتْ يَسوعَ امْرأةٌ اسْمُها مَرثا في بَيتِها.
Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.
39 و َكانَتْ لَها أختٌ اسْمُها مَريَمُ. فَجَلَسَتْ مَريَمُ عِندَ قَدَمَي الرَّبِّ تُصغِي إلَى ما يَقُولُهُ.
And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard His word.
40 أ مّا مَرْثا فَقَدِ انشَغَلَتِ بِالإعداداتِ الكَثِيْرَةَ. فَجاءَتْ إلَى يَسُوعَ وَقالَتْ: «ألا يَهُمُّكَ أنَّ أُختِي تَرَكَتْنِي لِأقُومَ بِالعَمَلِ كُلِّهِ وَحدِي؟ فَقُلْ لَها أنْ تُساعِدَنِي.»
But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.”
41 ف َأجابَها الرَّبُّ: «يا مَرثا، يا مَرثا، أنتِ تَسْمَحينَ لأُمورٍ كَثيرَةٍ بِأنْ تُزْعِجَكِ،
And Jesus answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things.
42 ب َينَما الضَّرُورَةُ هِيَ لأمْرٍ واحِدٍ فَقَطْ. فَها مَريَمُ قَدِ اختارَتْ لِنَفسِها الحِصَّةَ الفُضلَى الَّتِي لَنْ تُؤخَذَ مِنْها.»
But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
