1 م ِنْ بُولُسَ عَبْدِ المَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، المَدْعُوِّ لأكُونَ رَسُولاً، وَلأُنادي بِبِشارَةِ اللهِ

Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated to the gospel of God

2 ا لَّتي سَبَقَ أنْ وَعَدَنا اللهُ بِها مِنْ خِلالِ الأنبِياءُ فِي الكُتُبِ المُقَدَّسَةِ.

which He promised before through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures,

3 و َهِيَ البِشارَةُ المُختَصَّةُ بابنِهِ الَّذي يَعُودُ نَسَبُهُ مِنْ حَيثُ بَشَرِيَّتِهِ إلَى داوُدَ.

concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh,

4 و َبِالرُّوحِ القُدُسِ، أُقِيمَ مِنَ المَوتِ، فَتَبَرهَنَ بِقُوَّةٍ أنَّهُ هُوَ ابنُ اللهِ،

and declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead.

5 ا لَّذِي فِيهِ نِلتُ أنا نِعمَةَ أنْ أكُونَ رَسولاً لِغَيرِ اليَهُودِ، لِكَي يَأْتوا إلَى طاعَةِ اللهِ بِالإيمانِ، مِنْ أجلِ اسْمِهِ.

Through Him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith among all nations for His name,

6 و َأنتُمْ أيضاً مَدعُوُّونَ مِنَ اللهِ لِلانتِماءِ إلَى يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ.

among whom you also are the called of Jesus Christ;

7 إ لَيكُمْ جَمِيعاً، أنتُمِ المَوجُودِينَ فِي رُوما. أنتُمْ مَحبُوبُونَ مِنَ اللهِ الَّذِي دَعاكُمْ لِتَكُونُوا مُقَدَّسينَ لَهُ. لِتَكُنْ لَكُمْ نِعمَةٌ وَسَلامٌ مِنَ اللهِ أبِينا، وَمِنَ الرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ. صَلاةُ شُكر

To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Desire to Visit Rome

8 أ وَّلاً أنا أشكُرَ اللهَ بِيَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ مِنْ أجلِكُمْ جَمِيعاً، لِأنَّ إيمانَكُمْ هُوَ حَدِيثُ العالَمِ كُلِّهِ.

First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

9 و َيَشْهَدُ اللهُ الَّذِي أخدِمُهُ بِكُلِّ قَلبِي وَأُنادي بِبِشارَةِ ابنِهِ، أنِّي أذكُرُكُمْ فِي صَلَواتِي دائِماً.

For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers,

10 و َأنا أُصَلِّي إلَى اللهِ دائِماً أنْ يُتِيحَ لِي فُرصَةَ زِيارَتِكُمْ، إنْ كانَتْ تِلكَ مَشِيئَتُهُ.

making request if, by some means, now at last I may find a way in the will of God to come to you.

11 ف َأنا فِي أشَدِّ الشَّوقِ إلَى رُؤيَتِكُمْ، لِكَي أُشارِكَكُمْ فِي عَطِيَّةٍ رُوحِيَّةٍ، فَتَتَقَوَّوا،

For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established—

12 و َنَتَشَجَّعَ مَعاً، حِينَ أكُونُ بَينَكُمْ، بِالإيمانِ الَّذِي فِينا. فَأتَشَجَّعَ بِإيمانِكُمْ وَتَتَشَجَّعونَ بِإيمانِي.

that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

13 أ يُّها الإخوَةُ، أُرِيدُكُمْ أنْ تَعرِفُوا أنَّنِي كَثِيراً ما نَوَيتُ أنْ أزُورَكُمْ، كَما فِي بَقِيَّةِ الأُمَمِ غَيرِ اليَهُودِيةِ، لَكِنِّي أُعِقْتُ حَتَّى الآنَ.

Now I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but was hindered until now), that I might have some fruit among you also, just as among the other Gentiles.

14 أ نا مَدِينٌ لِليُونانِيِّينَ وَغَيرِ اليُونانِيِّينَ، لَلمُتَعَلِّمِينَ وَلِغَيرِ المُتَعَلِّمِينَ.

I am a debtor both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to wise and to unwise.

15 ل ِهَذا أنا مُستَعِدٌّ أنْ أُعلِنَ لَكُمْ أنتُمِ المَوجُودِينَ فِي رُوما هَذِهِ البِشارَةَ.

So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also. The Just Live by Faith

16 ف َأنا لا أخجَلُ مِنَ البِشارَةِ بِالمَسيحِ، فَهِيَ قُوَّةُ اللهِ لِخَلاصِ كُلِّ مَنْ يُؤمِنُ. أوَّلاً لِليَهُودِ، وَالآنَ لِغَيرِ اليَهُودِ أيضاً.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

17 ف َفِي البِشارَةِ، يُعلَنُ أنَّ اللهَ يُبَرِّرُ بِالإيمانِ مِنَ البِدايَةِ إلَى النِّهايَةِ. فَكَما يَقُولُ الكِتابُ: «البارُّ بِالإيمانِ يَحيا.» جَمِيعُ النّاسِ أخطَأُوا

For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” God’s Wrath on Unrighteousness

18 إ نَّ غَضَبَ اللهِ مُعلَنٌ مِنَ السَّماءِ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرِّ وَاثْمِ النّاسِ الَّذِينَ يُخْفُونَ الحَقَّ بِإثمِهِمْ.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

19 ه َذا لأنَّ المَعرِفَةَ عَنِ اللهِ وَاضِحَةٌ لَهُمْ، لِأنَّ اللهَ جَعَلَها وَاضِحَةً لَهُمْ.

because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.

20 ف َمُنذُ أنْ خُلِقَ العالَمُ، يَستَطِيعُ الإنسانُ أنْ يَفهَمَ وَأنْ يُدرِكَ صِفاتَ اللهِ غَيرَ المَرئِيَّةِ، كَقُوَّتِهِ السَّرمَدِيَّةِ وَأُلُوهيَّتِهِ، لأنَّ إدراكَها مُمكِنٌ مِنْ خِلالِ الأشياءِ الَّتِي خَلَقَها. وَلِهَذا فَإنَّ النّاسَ بِلا عُذرٍ.

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

21 ف َقَدْ عَرَفُوا اللهُ، لَكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُعطُوهُ ما يَلِيقُ بِهِ مِنْ إكرامٍ أوْ يَشكُرُوهُ، بَلْ أظلَمَتْ أفكارُهُمُ الغَبِيَّةُ.

because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

22 ا دَّعُوا الحِكْمَةَ، إلّا أنَّهُمْ صارُوا أغبِياءَ.

Professing to be wise, they became fools,

23 و َاستَبدَلُوا مَجدَ اللهِ الَّذِي لا يَفْنَى، بِصُوَرٍ تُشبِهُ الإنسانَ وَالطُّيُورَ وَالدَّوابَ وَالزَّواحِفَ الفانِيةَ.

and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

24 ك انَتْ شَهَواتُ قُلُوبِهِمْ شِرِّيرَةً، فَتَرَكَهُمُ اللهُ يُمارِسُونَ النَّجاسَةَ الجِنسِيَّةَ، وَسَمَحَ لَهُمْ بِأنْ يُدَنِّسُوا أجسادَهُمْ بَعضُهُمْ مَعَ بَعضٍ.

Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

25 ا ستَبدَلُوا حَقَّ اللهِ بِالكَذِبِ، وَأكرَمُوا المَخلُوقَ وَعَبَدُوه دُونَ الخالِقَ الَّذِي يَستَحِقُّ التَّسبِيحَ وَالكَرامَةَ إلَى الأبَدِ.

who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 ل ِهَذا تَرَكَهُمُ اللهُ لِرَغَباتِهِمُ المُخزِيَةَ. فَاسْتَبدَلَتْ نِساؤهُمُ العَلاقاتِ الطَّبِيعِيَّةَ بِعَلاقاتٍ مُخالِفَةٍ للطَّبِيعَةِ.

For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.

27 و َكَذَلِكَ تَرَكَ الرِّجالُ العَلاقاتِ الطَّبِيعِيَّةَ مَعَ النِّساءِ، وَالتَهَبُوا شَهوَةً بَعضُهُمْ لِبَعضٍ. فَصارَ الذُّكُورُ يُمارِسُونَ أُمُوراً فاحِشَةً مَعَ الذُّكُورِ، وَحَمَلُوا فِي أنفُسِهِمُ العِقابَ الَّذِي استَحَقُّوهُ عَلَى انحِرافِهِمْ.

Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

28 و َبِما أنَّهُمْ رَفَضُوا الاعتِرافَ بِاللهِ، فَقَدْ تَرَكَهُمُ اللهُ لِعُقُولِهِمُ الفاسِدَةِ. وَسَمَحَ لَهُمْ بِأنْ يَفعَلُوا ما لا يَلِيقُ.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

29 إ نَّهُمْ مُمتَلِئُونَ مِنْ كُلِّ إثمٍ وَشَرٍّ وَأنانِيَّةٍ وَخُبْثٍ. وَهُمْ مُمتَلِئُونَ حَسَداً وَقَتلاً وَخِصاماً وَخِداعاً وَحِقداً.

being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,

30 م ُحِبُّونَ لِلنَّمِيمَةِ، مُفتَرُونَ عَلَى الآخَرِينَ، كارِهُونَ للهِ، وَقِحُونَ، مَغرُورُونَ، مُتَباهُونَ، مُختَرِعُونَ شُرُوراً، لا يُطِيعُونَ وَالِدِيهِمْ،

backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 ح َمقَى، لا يَحفَظُونَ وُعُودَهُمْ، خالُونَ مِنَ الحَنانِ وَالرَّحمَةِ،

undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;

32 ي َعرِفُونَ حُكمَ اللهِ العادِلِ عَلَى الَّذِينَ يُمارِسُونَ مِثلَ هَذِهِ الأُمُورِ، وَهُوَ أنَّهُمْ مُستَحِقُّونَ لِلمَوتِ! وَمَعْ ذَلِكَ فَهُمْ لا يَكتَفُونَ بِمُمارَسَتِها، بَلْ يُعلِنُونَ أيضاً استِحسانَهُمْ لِلَّذِينَ يُمارِسُونَها!

who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
