1 و َقَبلَ سِتَّةِ أيّامٍ مِنْ عِيْدِ الفِصْحِ، ذَهَبَ يَسُوعُ إلَى بَيْتَ عَنْيا. وَهِيَ بَلْدَةُ لِعازَرَ الَّذِي أقامَهُ يَسُوعُ مِنَ المَوْتِ.

Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.

2 و َهُناكَ أعَدُّوا لَهُ عَشاءً، وَكانَتْ مَرْثا تُجَهِّزُ الطَّعامَ. وَكانَ لِعازَرُ أحَدَ المُتَّكِئِيْنَ مَعَ يَسُوعَ.

There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.

3 أ مّا مَرْيَمُ فَقَدْ أخَذَتْ قارُورَةً مِنَ العِطْرِ الثَّمِيْنِ المَصْنُوعِ مِنْ زَيْتِ نَباتِ النّاردِيْنِ النَّقِيِّ وَسَكَبَتْهُ عَلَى قَدَمَيْ يَسُوعَ، ثُمَّ نَشَّفَتْهُما بِشَعْرِها. فَامتَلأ البَيْتُ كُلُّهُ بِعَبِيْرِ العِطْرِ.

Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.

4 ف َقالَ أحَدُ تَلامِيْذِ يَسُوعَ – وَهُوَ يَهُوذا الإسْخَرْيُوطِيِّ الَّذِي سَيَخُونُهُ:

Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,

5 « لِماذا لَمْ يُبَعْ هَذا العِطْرُ بِمَبلَغٍ كَبِيْرٍ مِنَ المالِ يُعْطَى لِلفُقَراءِ؟»

Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?

6 و َلَمْ يَقُلْ يَهُوذا ذَلِكَ اهتِماماً مِنْهُ بِالفُقَراءِ، بَلْ لِأنَّهُ كانَ سارِقاً. كانَ هُوَ الَّذِي يَحتَفِظُ بِصُنْدُوقِ المالِ، وَكانَ يَختَلِسُ مِمّا يُوضَعُ فِيْهِ.

This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

7 ف َقالَ يَسُوعُ: «دَعُوها وَشَأْنَها! فَمِنَ الحَسَنِ أنَّها احتَفَظَتْ بِهَذا العِطْرِ لِهَذا اليَوْمِ، يَوْمِ الإعدادِ لِدَفْنِي.

Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.

8 ا لفُقَراءُ سَيَكُونُونَ عِنْدَكُمْ دائِماً، أمّا أنا فَلَسْتُ مَعَكُمْ دائِماً.» التَّآمُرُ عَلَى لِعازَر

For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.

9 و َعَلِمَ جَمْعٌ كَبِيْرٌ مِنَ اليَهُودِ الَّذِيْنَ جاءُوا لِلاحتِفالِ بِالفِصْحِ أنَّ يَسُوعَ فِي بَيْتَ عَنْيا. فَجاءُوا لا مِنْ أجلِ يَسُوعَ فَقَط، بَلْ أيضاً لِكَيْ يَرَوا لِعازَرَ الَّذِي أقامَهُ يَسُوعُ مِنَ المَوْتِ.

Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

10 و َلِهَذا بَدَأ كِبارُ الكَهَنَةِ يُخَطِّطُونَ لِقَتلِ لِعازَرَ أيضاً.

But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;

11 ف َبِسَبَبِهِ كانَ كَثِيْرُونَ مِنَ اليَهُودِ يَتْرُكُونَ قادَتَهُمْ وَيُؤْمِنُونَ بِيَسُوعَ. يَسُوعُ يَدْخُلُ مَدِيْنَةَ القُدْس

Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.

12 و َفِي اليَوْمِ التّالِي سَمِعَ الجَمْعُ الكَبِيْرُ الَّذِي جاءَ إلَى عِيْدِ الفِصْحِ أنَّ يَسُوعَ قادِمٌ إلَى مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ.

On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

13 ف َحَمَلُوا أغصاناً مِنْ شَجَرِ النَّخلِ، وَخَرَجُوا لاسْتِقْبالِهِ. وَبَدَأُوا يَهْتِفُونَ: «يَعِيْشُ المَلِكُ! مُبارَكٌ هُوَ الآتِي بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ. مُبارَكٌ مَلِكُ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ!»

Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

14 و َوَجَدَ يَسُوعُ حِماراً فَرَكِبَهُ كَما هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ:

And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,

15 « لا تَخافِي أيَّتُها العَزِيزَةُ صِهْيَوْنُ، ها إنَّ مَلِكَكِ آتٍ راكِباً عَلَى حِمارٍ صَغِيْرٍ.»

Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

16 و َلَمْ يَفْهَمِ التَّلامِيْذُ أوَّلَ الأمْرِ ما يَحْدُثُ، لَكِنَّهُمْ تَذَكَّرُوا بَعْدَ أنْ تَمَجَّدَ يَسُوعُ أنَّ هَذِهِ الأُمُورَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ عَنْهُ، وَأنَّهُمْ تَمَّمُوها لَهُ.

These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.

17 و َكانَ هُناكَ جَمْعٌ مِنَ النّاسِ عِندَما نادَى يَسُوعُ لِعازَرَ مِنَ القَبْرِ وَأقامَهُ مِنَ المَوْتِ. فَكانُوا يُخبِرُونَ الجَمِيعَ بِما حَدَثَ.

The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.

18 ل ِذَلِكَ خَرَجَتْ جُمُوعُ النّاسِ لِلِقائِهِ، فَقَدْ سَمِعُوا أنَّهُ هُوَ الَّذِي صَنَعَ تِلْكَ المُعجِزَةَ.

For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.

19 ف َقالَ الفِرِّيْسِيُّونَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «انظُرُوا! إنَّ خِطَتَنا لا تُحَقِّقُ شَيْئاً، فَها هُوَ العالَمُ كُلُّهُ يَتْبَعُهُ!» الحَياةُ وَالمَوْت

The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.

20 و َكانَ بَعضُ اليُونانِيِّيْنَ قَدْ ذَهَبُوا إلَى مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ لِلعِبادَةِ فِي عِيدِ الفِصْحِ أيضاً.

And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:

21 ف َذَهَبُوا إلَى فِيلِبُّسَ، وَهُوَ مِنْ بَلْدَةِ بَيْتِ صَيْدا فِي إقلِيْمِ الجَلِيلِ، وَرَجُوهُ فَقالوا: «يا سَيِّدُ، نُرِيْدُ أنْ نَرَى يَسُوعَ.»

The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.

22 ف َجاءَ فِيلِبُّسُ وَأخبَرَ أندراوُسَ. ثُمَّ جاءَ أندَراوُسُ وَفِيلِبُّسُ وَأخبَرا يَسُوعَ.

Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

23 ف َقالَ يَسُوعُ: «آنَ الأوانُ لِيَتَمَجَّدَ ابْنُ الإنسانِ.

And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.

24 أ قُولُ الحَقَّ لَكُمْ: يَنبَغِي أنْ تَقَعَ حَبَّةُ القَمْحِ عَلَى الأرْضِ وَتَمُوتَ، وَإلّا فَإنَّها تَظَلُّ حَبَّةً وَحِيْدَةً. لَكِنَّها إنْ وَقَعَتْ عَلَى الأرْضِ وَماتَتْ، فَإنَّها تُنتِجُ ثَمَراً كَثِيْراً.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

25 م َنْ يَتَعَلَّقُ بِحَياتِهِ يَخسَرُها، أمّا الَّذِي لا يَتَعَلَّقُ بِحَياتِهِ فِي هَذا العالَمِ فَسَيَحفَظُها لِلحَياةِ الأبَدِيَّةِ.

He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

26 ف َلْيَتبَعْنِي مَنْ يُرِيْدُ أنْ يَخدِمَنِي. وَحَيْثُ أكُونُ أنا، سَيَكُونُ خادِمِي أيضاً. إنْ كانَ أحَدٌ يَخدِمُنِي، فَسَيُكْرِمُهُ الآبُ.» يَسُوعُ يُنبئُ باقتِرابِ مَوْتِه

If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

27 « الآنَ تَتَضايَقُ نَفْسِي، فَماذا أقُولُ؟ أأقُولُ نَجِّنِي أيُّها الآبُ مِنْ ساعَةِ الألَمِ هَذِهِ؟ لَكِنِّي جِئْتُ مِنْ أجلِ هَذِهِ السّاعَةِ.

Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

28 ف َمَجِّدِ اسْمَكَ أيُّها الآبُ.» فَجاءَ مِنَ السَّماءِ صَوْتٌ يَقُولُ: «لَقَدْ مَجَّدْتُهُ، وَسَأُمَجِّدُهُ أيضاً.»

Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.

29 و َكانَ هُناكَ جَمْعٌ مِنَ النّاسِ، فَسَمِعُوا الصَّوْتَ، وَقالَ بَعضُهُمْ: «هَذا صَوْتُ الرَّعْدِ.» وَقالَ آخَرُونَ: «بَلْ كَلَّمَهُ مَلاكٌ!»

The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.

30 ف َأجابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «لَمْ يَأْتِ هَذا الصَّوْتُ مِنْ أجلِي أنا، بَلْ مِنْ أجلِكُمْ أنتُمْ.

Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.

31 ا لآنَ هُوَ وَقْتُ الحُكْمِ عَلَى هَذا العالَمِ. الآنَ سَيُطْرَدُ حاكِمُ هَذا العالَمِ خارِجاً.

Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

32 و َإذا رُفِعْتُ عَنِ الأرْضِ، سَأجذِبُ الجَمِيعَ إلَيَّ.»

And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.

33 ق الَ هَذا مُشِيْراً إلَى المِيْتَةِ الَّتِي سَيَمُوتُها.

This he said, signifying what death he should die.

34 ف َقالَ لَهُ بَعْضُهُمْ: «لَقَدْ سَمِعْنا مِنَ الشَّرِيْعَةِ أنَّ المَسِيْحَ سَيَبْقَى إلَى الأبَدِ، فَكَيْفَ تَقُولُ إنَّهُ يَنبَغِي لابْنِ الإنسانِ أنْ يُرْفَعَ؟ إذاً أيُّ ابْنِ إنسانٍ هَذا؟»

The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?

35 ف َقالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «سَيَبْقَى النُّورُ مَعْكُمْ زَماناً قَصِيْراً بَعْدُ، فَسِيْرُوا مادامَ النُّورُ مَعْكُمْ، وَقَبلَ أنْ تُدرِكَكُمُ الظُّلْمَةُ. لِأنَّ السّائِرَ فِي الظُّلمَةِ لا يَعلَمُ إلَى أيْنَ يَتَّجِهُ.

Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.

36 آ مِنُوا بِالنُّورِ مادامَ مَعَكُمْ، فَتَصِيْرُوا أولادَ النُّورِ.» قالَ يَسُوعُ هَذا وَمَضَى وَتَوارَىْ عَنْهُمْ. اليَهُودُ يُرْفُضُونَ أنْ يُؤْمِنُوا بِيَسُوع

While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

37 ص َنَعَ يَسُوعُ كُلَّ هَذِهِ المُعجِزاتِ أمامَهُمْ. لَكِنَّهُمْ كانُوا يَرفُضُونَ أنْ يُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ.

But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:

38 ف َصَحَّ فِيْهِمْ قَولُ النَّبِيِّ إشَعْياءَ: «يا رَبُّ، مَنِ الَّذِي صَدَّقَ رِسالَتَنا، وَلِمَنْ أُظهِرَتْ قُوَّةُ الرَّبِّ ؟»

That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

39 و َلَمْ يَكُنْ بِإمكانِهِمْ أنْ يُؤمِنُوا، فَإشَعْياءُ قالَ أيضاً:

Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,

40 « قَدْ أعمَى اللهُ عُيُونَهُمْ، وَقَسَّى قُلُوبَهُمْ. فَلا يَقدِرُونَ أنْ يُبصِرُوا بِعُيُونِهِمْ، وَلا أنْ يَفهَمُوا بِقُلُوبِهِمْ، لِكَيلا يَرجِعُوا إلَيَّ فَأُشْفِيْهِمْ.»

He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

41 ق الَ إشَعْياءُ هَذا لِأنَّهُ رَأى مَجدَ يَسُوعَ وَتَحَدَّثَ عَنْهُ.

These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

42 و َمَعَ ذَلِكَ، كانَ هُناكَ كَثِيْرُونَ قَدْ آمَنُوا بِهِ مِنْ قادَةِ اليَهُودِ. لَكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُجاهِرُوا بِإيْمانِهِمْ خَوفاً مِنَ الفِرِّيْسِيِّيْنَ، لِأنَّهُمْ كانُوا يَخافُونَ أنْ يُحرَمُوا مِنْ دُخُولِ المَجمَعِ.

Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

43 ف َقَدْ كانُوا يُحِبُّونَ إكرامَ النّاسِ لَهُمْ أكثَرَ مِنْ إكرامِ اللهِ. تَعلِيْمُ يَسُوعَ سَيَحكُمُ عَلَى العالَم

For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

44 و َقالَ يَسُوعُ بِصَوتٍ مُرتَفِعٍ: «مَنْ يُؤمِنُ بِي، فَإنَّهُ لا يُؤمِنُ بِي أنا، بَلْ يُؤمِنُ بِذاكَ الَّذِي أرسَلَنِي.

Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.

45 و َمَنْ يَرانِي يَرَى ذاكَ الَّذِي أرسَلَنِي.

And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.

46 ل َقَدْ جِئْتُ نُوراً لِلعالَمِ، فَكُلُّ مَنْ يُؤمِنُ بِي لا يَبْقَى فِي الظَّلمَةِ.

I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

47 إ نْ سَمِعَ أحَدٌ كَلامِي وَلَمْ يُطِعْهُ، فَإنِّي لا أحكُمُ عَلَيْهِ. فَأنا لَمْ آتِ لِكَي أحكُمَ عَلَى العالَمِ، بَلْ جِئْتُ لِأُخَلِّصَ العالَمَ.

And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

48 و َمَنْ يَرفُضُنِي وَيَرفُضُ أنْ يَقبَلَ كَلامِي، فَهُناكَ ما يَحكُمُ عَلَيْهِ: الرِّسالَةُ الَّتِي عَلَّمْتُها هِيَ الَّتِي سَتَحكُمُ عَلَيْهِ فِي اليَوْمِ الأخِيْرِ.

He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

49 ف َأنا لَمْ أتَكَلَّمْ مِنْ عِندِي، بَلِ الآبُ نَفسُهُ الَّذِي أرسَلَنِي هُوَ الَّذِي أوصانِي بِما أقُولُ وَبِما أتَكَلَّمُ.

For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

50 و َأنا أعلَمُ أنَّ وَصِيَّتَهُ تُؤَدِّي إلَى الحَياةِ الأبَدِيَّةِ. فَما أتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ الآنَ، إنَّما أتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ كَما تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ الآبُ إلَيَّ.»

And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
