1 T herefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

وَعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ أنَّ الفِرِّيْسِيِّيْنَ سَمِعُوا أنَّهُ كانَ يُتَلْمِذُ وَيُعَمِّدُ أشْخاصاً أكْثَرَ مِنْ يُوحَنّا،

2 ( although Jesus Himself was not baptizing, but His disciples were),

مَعَ أنَّ يَسُوعَ نَفْسَهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُعَمِّدُ، بَلْ تَلامِيْذُهُ.

3 H e left Judea and went away again into Galilee.

فَغادَرَ يَسُوعُ إقلِيْمَ اليَهُودِيَّةِ وَعادَ ثانِيَةً إلَى إقلِيْمِ الجَلِيلِ.

4 A nd He had to pass through Samaria.

وَكانَ مِنَ الضَّرُورِيِّ أنْ يَمُرَّ عَبْرَ إقلِيْمِ السّامِرَةِ.

5 S o He came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph;

فَوَصَلَ إلَى بَلْدَةٍ سامِرِيَّةٍ تَدْعَى سُوخارَ. وَهِيَ قُرْبَ الأرْضِ الَّتِي أعطاها يَعْقُوبُ لابْنِهِ يُوسُفَ.

6 a nd Jacob’s well was there. So Jesus, being wearied from His journey, was sitting thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour. The Woman of Samaria

وَكانَتْ بِئْرُ يَعْقُوبَ هُناكَ. فَجَلَسَ يَسُوعُ عِنْدَ البِئْرِ لِأنَّهُ كانَ مُتْعَباً مِنَ المَسِيْرِ. وَكانَ الوَقْتُ نَحْوَ الثّانِيَةَ عَشْرَةَ ظُهْراً.

7 T here came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.”

فَجاءَتِ امْرأةٌ سامِرِيَّةٌ لِتَأْخُذَ ماءً مِنَ البِئْرِ. فَقالَ لَها يَسُوعُ: «أعطِيْنِي لِأشْرَبَ.»

8 F or His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

وَكانَ التَّلامِيْذُ قَدْ ذَهَبُوا إلَى المَدِيْنَةِ لِيَشْتَرُوا طَعاماً.

9 T herefore the Samaritan woman said to Him, “How is it that You, being a Jew, ask me for a drink since I am a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

فَقالَتْ لَهُ المَرأةُ السّامِرِيَّةُ: «أنتَ يَهُودِيٌّ، وَأنا امْرأةٌ سامِرِيَّةٌ. فَكَيْفَ تَطلُبُ مِنِّي أنْ أُعطِيَكَ لِتَشْرَبَ؟» قالَتِ المَرأةُ هَذا لِأنَّ اليَهُودَ يَرْفُضُونَ أنْ يَختَلِطُوا بِالسّامِرِيِّيْنَ.

10 J esus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”

فَأجابَها يَسُوعُ: «أنتِ لا تَعْرِفِيْنَ ما يُعْطِيْهِ اللهُ، وَلا تَعْرِفِيْنَ مَنِ الَّذِي يَقُولُ لَكِ: أعطِيْنِي لِأشْرَبَ. فَلَو عَرَفتِ، لَطَلَبتِ أنتِ مِنهُ، وَلأعطاكِ ماءً مُحْيياً.»

11 S he said to Him, “ Sir, You have nothing to draw with and the well is deep; where then do You get that living water?

فَقالَت لَهُ المَرأةُ: «لَيسَ لَديكَ دَلوٌ يا سَيِّدْ، وَالبِئرُ عَميقَةٌ. فَكَيفَ سَتَحصُلُ عَلَى مِثلِ ذَلِكَ الماءِ؟ لا أظُنُّكَ أعظَمَ مِنْ أبينا يَعْقُوبَ!

12 Y ou are not greater than our father Jacob, are You, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself and his sons and his cattle?”

فَهُوَ الَّذِي أعطانا هَذِهِ البِئْرَ، وَقَدْ شَرِبَ مِنْها هُوَ وَأبْناؤُهُ وَمَواشِيْهِ.»

13 J esus answered and said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again;

فَأجابَها يَسُوعُ: «كُلُّ مَنْ يَشْرَبُ مِنْ هَذا الماءِ سَيَعطَشُ ثانِيَةً،

14 b ut whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”

أمّا مَنْ يَشْرَبُ مِنَ الماءِ الَّذِي أُعطِيْهِ إيّاهُ أنا، فَلَنْ يَعطَشَ أبَداً، بَلْ يَصِيْرُ الماءُ الَّذِي أُعطِيْهِ نَبْعاً فِي داخِلِهِ، وَيَتَدَفَّقُ مُعطِياً حَياةً أبَدِيَّةً.»

15 T he woman said to Him, “ Sir, give me this water, so I will not be thirsty nor come all the way here to draw.”

فَقالَتْ لَهُ المَرأةُ: «أعطِنِي هَذا الماءَ يا سَيِّدُ، فَلا أعطَشُ أبَداً وَلا أعُودُ إلَى هُنا طَلَباً لِلماءِ.»

16 H e said to her, “Go, call your husband and come here.”

فَقالَ لَها يَسُوعُ: «اذْهَبِي وَنادِي زَوْجَكِ وَتَعالا إلَى هُنا.»

17 T he woman answered and said, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You have correctly said, ‘I have no husband’;

فَقالَتِ المَرأةُ: «لا زَوْجَ لِي!» فَقالَ لَها يَسُوعُ: «أصَبْتِ بِقَولِكِ: ‹لا زَوْجَ لِيْ.›

18 f or you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; this you have said truly.”

فَقَدْ كانَ لَكِ خَمْسَةُ أزواجٍ، أمّا الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي تَعِيْشِيْنَ مَعَهُ الآنَ، فَلَيْسَ زَوْجَكِ! فَقَدْ صَدَقْتِ.»

19 T he woman said to Him, “ Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet.

قالَتِ المَرأةُ: «يا سَيِّدُ، لا بُدَّ أنَّكَ نَبِيٌّ!

20 O ur fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you people say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.”

لَقَدْ عَبَدَ آباؤُنا السّامِرِيُّونَ اللهَ عَلَى هَذا الجَبَلِ، أمّا أنتُمُ اليَهُودَ فَتَقُولُونَ إنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي لِلنّاسِ أنْ يَعبُدُوا اللهَ فِي مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ!»

21 J esus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, an hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

فَقالَ لَها يَسُوعُ: «يا امْرأةُ، صَدِّقِيْنِي أنَّهُ سَيَأْتِي الوَقْتُ حِيْنَ سَتَعْبُدُونَ الآبَ لا عَلَى هَذا الجَبَلِ وَلا فِي مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ.

22 Y ou worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews.

أنتُمُ السّامِرِيِّيْنَ تَعبُدُونَ ما لا تَعْرِفُونَ، أمّا نَحنُ اليَهُودَ فَنَعْرِفُ ما نَعْبُدُ، لِأنَّ الخَلاصَ يَأْتِي مِنَ اليَهُودِ.

23 B ut an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers.

وَلَكِنْ سَيَأْتِي وَقْتٌ، بَلْ أتَى الآنَ، حِيْنَ يَعْبُدُ العابِدُونَ الحَقِيْقِيُّونَ الآبَ عِبادَةً رُوحِيَّةً وَحَقِيْقِيَّةً. فَهَكَذا يُرِيْدُ الآبُ أنْ يَكُونَ عابِدُوهُ.

24 G od is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

اللهُ رُوحٌ، وَالَّذِيْنَ يَعْبُدُونَهُ يَنبَغِي أنْ يَعْبُدُوهُ بِالرُّوحِ وَالحَقِّ.»

25 T he woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming ( He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us.”

فَقالَتْ: «أنا أعرِفُ أنَّ مَشِيْحا – أيِ المَسِيْحَ – سَيَأْتِي. وَحِيْنَ يَأْتِي سَيُخبِرُنا بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ.»

26 J esus said to her, “ I who speak to you am He.”

قالَ يَسُوعُ: «أنا هُوَ الَّذِي أُكَلِّمُكِ.»

27 A t this point His disciples came, and they were amazed that He had been speaking with a woman, yet no one said, “What do You seek?” or, “Why do You speak with her?”

وَفِي تِلْكَ اللَّحظَةِ وَصَلَ تَلامِيْذُهُ، وَدُهِشُوا جِدّاً لِأنَّهُ كانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ مَعَ امْرأةٍ. لَكِنْ لَمْ يَسْألْهُ أحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ: «ما الَّذِي تُرِيْدُهُ مِنْها؟» أوْ «لِماذا تُكَلِّمُها؟»

28 S o the woman left her waterpot, and went into the city and said to the men,

أمّا المَرأةُ فَقَدْ تَرَكَتْ جَرَّتَها، وَعادَتْ إلَى البَلْدَةِ وَقالَتْ لِلنّاسِ:

29 “ Come, see a man who told me all the things that I have done; this is not the Christ, is it?”

«تَعالَوا لِتَرَوا إنساناً أخبَرَنِي بِكُلِّ ما فَعَلْتُ فِي حَياتِي! أيُمْكِنُ أنْ يَكُونَ هُوَ المَسِيْحَ؟»

30 T hey went out of the city, and were coming to Him.

فَتَرَكُوا بَلْدَتَهُمْ وَذَهَبُوا إلَيْهِ.

31 M eanwhile the disciples were urging Him, saying, “ Rabbi, eat.”

وَفِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ، كانَ تَلامِيْذُهُ يَحُثُّونَهُ وَيَقولونَ: «يا مُعَلِّمُ، كُلْ شَيْئاً!»

32 B ut He said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”

لَكِنَّهُ قالَ لَهُمْ: «عِندِي طَعامٌ لِآكُلَهُ لا تَعْرِفُونَ عَنْهُ شَيْئاً.»

33 S o the disciples were saying to one another, “No one brought Him anything to eat, did he?”

فَأخَذَ تَلامِيْذُهُ يَتَساءَلُونَ فِيْما بَيْنَهُمْ: «أيُمْكِنُ أنْ يَكُونَ أحَدٌ قَدْ أحضَرَ إلَيْهِ طَعاماً؟»

34 J esus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to accomplish His work.

فَقالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «طَعامِي هُوَ تَنفِيْذُ إرادَةِ ذاكَ الَّذِي أرسَلَنِي، وَإتمامُ العَمَلِ الَّذِي كَلَّفَنِي بِعَمَلِهِ.

35 D o you not say, ‘There are yet four months, and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest.

أنتُمْ تَقُولُونَ حِيْنَ تَزْرَعُونَ: ‹سَيَأْتِي الحَصادُ بَعْدَ أربَعَةِ أشْهُرٍ.› وَأنا أقُولُ لَكُمْ: افْتَحُوا عُيُونَكُمْ وَانظُرُوا إلَى الحُقُولِ. إنَّها الآنَ ناضِجَةٌ لِلحَصادِ.

36 A lready he who reaps is receiving wages and is gathering fruit for life eternal; so that he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

وَالحاصِدُ يَأْخُذُ أجرَهُ وَيَجْمَعُ مَحصُولاً لِلحَياةِ الأبَدِيَّةِ. وَهَكَذا يَفْرَحُ الزّارِعُ وَالحاصِدُ مَعاً.

37 F or in this case the saying is true, ‘ One sows and another reaps.’

وَيَصْدُقُ المَثَلُ القائِلُ: ‹واحِدٌ يَزْرَعُ وَآخَرُ يَحصُدُ.›

38 I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labor.” The Samaritans

وَأنا أرسَلْتُكُمْ لِتَحصُدُوا مَحصُولاً لَمْ تَتعَبُوا فِيْهِ. فَقَدْ تَعِبَ فِيْهِ آخَرُونَ، وَانتَفَعْتُمْ أنتُمْ مِنْ عَمَلِهِمْ.»

39 F rom that city many of the Samaritans believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, “ He told me all the things that I have done.”

فَآمَنَ بِهِ سامِرِيُّونَ كَثِيْرُونَ مِنْ تِلْكَ البَلْدَةِ بِسَبَبِ ما قالَتْهُ المَرأةُ فِي شَهادَتِها: «أخبَرَنِي بِكُلِّ ما فَعَلْتُ فِي حَياتِي!»

40 S o when the Samaritans came to Jesus, they were asking Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.

وَعِندَما جاءَ إلَيْهِ السّامِرِيُّونَ، طَلَبُوا إليهِ أنْ يَبْقَى مَعَهُمْ، فَأقامَ هُناكَ يَوْمَيْنِ.

41 M any more believed because of His word;

فَتَكاثَرَ جِدّاً عَدَدُ الَّذِيْنَ آمَنُوا بِهِ بِسَبَبِ كَلامِهِ.

42 a nd they were saying to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and know that this One is indeed the Savior of the world.”

وَقالُوا لِلمَرأةِ: «لَمْ نَعُدْ نُؤْمِنُ بِناءً عَلَى كَلامِكِ، لِأنَّنا سَمِعْناهُ بِأنفُسِنا. وَنَحنُ نَعلَمُ الآنَ أنَّ هَذا الإنسانَ هُوَ حَقّاً مُخَلِّصُ العالَمِ.» يَسُوعُ يَشْفِي ابْنَ أحَدِ رِجالِ المَلِك

43 A fter the two days He went forth from there into Galilee.

وَلَمّا انقَضَى اليَوْمانِ، غادَرَ يَسُوعُ إقلِيْمَ السّامِرَةِ وَذَهَبَ إلَى إقلِيْمِ الجَلِيلِ.

44 F or Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

وَكانَ يَسُوعُ نَفْسُهُ قَدْ أقَرَّ بِأنَّهُ لا كَرامَةَ لِنَبِيٍّ فِي وَطَنِهِ.

45 S o when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things that He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they themselves also went to the feast. Healing a Nobleman’s Son

لَكِنَّ أهلَ الجَلِيلِ كانُوا قَدْ ذَهَبُوا إلَى مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ وَرَأَوْا كُلَّ ما فَعَلَهُ يَسُوعُ فِي عِيْدِ الفِصْحِ. لِذَلِكَ فَقَدْ رَحَّبُوا بِهِ عِنْدَما جاءَ إلَى الجَلِيلِ.

46 T herefore He came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a royal official whose son was sick at Capernaum.

وَمَرَّةً أُخْرَى ذَهَبَ يَسُوعُ إلَى بَلْدَةِ قانا فِي الجَلِيلِ حَيْثُ كانَ قَدْ حَوَّلَ الماءَ إلَى نَبيذٍ. وَكانَ فِي مَدِيْنَةِ كَفْرِناحُومَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ حاشِيَةِ المَلِكِ، وَكانَ ابْنُهُ مَرِيْضاً.

47 W hen he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and was imploring Him to come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.

فَلَمّا سَمِعَ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ أنَّ يَسُوعَ قَدْ أتَى إلَى الجَلِيلِ مِنَ اليَهُودِيَّةِ، جاءَ إلَيْهِ يَرْجُوهُ أنْ يَذْهَبَ إلَى كَفْرِناحُومَ وَيَشْفِي ابْنَهُ الَّذِي أوشَكَ أنْ يَمُوتَ.

48 S o Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you simply will not believe.”

فَقالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «أنتُمْ لا تُؤْمِنُونَ ما لَمْ تَرَوا بُرْهانَ المُعجِزاتِ وَالعَجائِبَ!»

49 T he royal official said to Him, “ Sir, come down before my child dies.”

فَقالَ الرَّجُلُ لِيَسُوعَ: «أرجُوكَ تَعالَ يا سَيِّدُ قَبلَ أنْ يَمُوتَ وَلَدِي!»

50 J esus said to him, “ Go; your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and started off.

فَقالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «اذْهَبْ إلَى بَيْتِكَ. ابْنُكَ سَيَعِيْشُ.» فَآمَنَ الرَّجُلُ بِما قالَهُ لَهُ يَسُوعُ وَذَهَبَ.

51 A s he was now going down, his slaves met him, saying that his son was living.

وَبَيْنَما كانَ عائِداً إلَى بَيْتِهِ، لاقاهُ خُدّامُهُ وَقالُوا لَهُ إنَّ ابْنَهُ مُعافَى.

52 S o he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. Then they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.”

فَاسْتَفْسَرَ مِنْهُمْ عَنِ الوَقْتِ الَّذِي بَدَأ فِيْهِ ابْنُهُ يَتَعافَى، فَقالُوا: «زالَتْ حَرارَتُهُ فِي السّاعَةِ الواحِدَةِ مِنْ بَعْدِ ظُهْرِ الأمْسِ.»

53 S o the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives”; and he himself believed and his whole household.

فَأدرَكَ أبُو الطِّفلِ أنَّ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الوَقْتُ نَفْسُهُ الَّذِي قالَ لَهُ فِيْهِ يَسُوعَ: «ابْنُكَ سَيَعِيْشُ.» فَآمَنَ هُوَ وَعائِلَتُهُ كُلُّها.

54 T his is again a second sign that Jesus performed when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.

كانَتْ هَذِهِ المُعجِزَةَ الثّانِيَةَ الَّتِي صَنَعَها يَسُوعُ بَعْدَ مَجِيئِهِ مِنَ اليَهُودِيَّةِ إلَى الجَلِيلِ.
