1 T here were present at that season some who told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

فِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ، أخبَرَهُ أشخاصٌ حاضِرُونَ عَنِ الجَلِيلِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ قَتَلَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ حَتَّىْ إنَّ دِمائَهُمُ اخْتَلَطَتْ بِدَمِ ذَبائِحَهُمْ!

2 A nd Jesus answered and said to them, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other Galileans, because they suffered such things?

فَأجابَهُمْ: «أتَظُنُّونَ أنَّ هَؤُلاءِ الجَلِيلِيِّينَ كانُوا أكثَرَ شَرّاً مِنْ بَقيَّةِ أهلِ الجَلِيلِ، لأنَّ هَذا حَصَلَ لَهُمْ؟

3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.

أقُولُ لَكُمْ إنَّ هَذا غَيرُ صَحِيحٍ، بَلْ إن لَمْ تَتُوبُوا، فَسَتَمُوتُونَ جَمِيعاً كَما ماتُوا.

4 O r those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem?

أوْ ماذا تَقُولُونَ فِي الثَّمانِيَةَ عَشَرَ شَخصاً الَّذِينَ سَقَطَ عَلَيهِمُ البُرجُ فِي سِلوامَ فَقَتَلَهُمْ؟ أتَظُنُّونَ أنَّهُمْ كانُوا أكثَرَ شَرّاً مِنْ بَقيَّةِ أهلِ القُدسِ؟

5 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” The Parable of the Barren Fig Tree

أقُولُ لَكُمْ إنَّ هَذا غَيرُ صَحِيحٍ، بَلْ إنْ لَمْ تَتُوبُوا، فَسَتَمُوتُونَ جَمِيعاً كَما ماتُوا.» شَجَرَةٌ بِلا فائِدَة

6 H e also spoke this parable: “A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none.

ثُمَّ رَوَى لَهُمْ هَذا المَثَلَ: «كانَ لِرَجُلٍ شَجَرَةُ تِينٍ مَزرُوعَةً فِي بُستانِهِ. فَجاءَ مُتَوَقِّعاً أنْ يَرَى ثِماراً عَلَيها،

7 T hen he said to the keeper of his vineyard, ‘Look, for three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree and find none. Cut it down; why does it use up the ground?’

لَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَجِدْ شَيئاً. فَقالَ لِلبُستانِيِّ: ‹ها قَدْ مَضَتْ ثَلاثُ سَنَواتٍ وَأنا آتِي مُتَوَقِّعاً ثَمَراً مِنْ شَجَرَةِ التِّينِ هَذِهِ، لَكِنِّي لا أجِدُ شَيئاً. اقطَعْها، فَلِماذا أترُكُها تُضَيِّعُ مَساحَةً مِنَ الأرْضِ؟›

8 B ut he answered and said to him, ‘Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and fertilize it.

فَأجابَهُ البُستانِيُّ: ‹يا سَيِّدُ، اترُكْها هَذِهِ السَّنَةَ فَقَطْ. فَسَأحفِرُ حَولَها وَأُسَمِّدُها،

9 A nd if it bears fruit, well. But if not, after that you can cut it down.’” A Spirit of Infirmity

لَعَلَّها تُثمِرُ. فإنْ لَمْ تُثمِرِ اقْطَعْها.›» يَسُوعُ يَشفِي امْرأةً يَومَ السَّبت

10 N ow He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.

وَكانَ يَسُوعُ يُعَلِّمُ فِي مَجمَعٍ يَومَ سَبتٍ.

11 A nd behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bent over and could in no way raise herself up.

وَكانَتْ هُناكَ امْرأةٌ فِيها رُوحُ ضَعفٍ مُنذُ ثَمانِيَ عَشرَةَ سَنَةً، حَتَّى إنَّ ظَهرَها كانَ مَحنِيّاً فَلا تَقدِرُ أنْ تَستَقِيمَ.

12 B ut when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, “Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.”

وَحِينَ رَآها يَسُوعُ، ناداها وَقالَ لَها: «أيَّتُها المَرأةُ، أنتِ حُرَّةٌ مِنْ مَرَضِكِ!»

13 A nd He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَيهِ عَلَيها، فَاسْتَقامَ ظَهرُها فَوراً، وَشَكَرَتِ اللهَ.

14 B ut the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath; and he said to the crowd, “There are six days on which men ought to work; therefore come and be healed on them, and not on the Sabbath day.”

فَغَضِبَ رَئِيسُ المَجمَعِ كَثِيراً لِأنَّ يَسُوعَ شَفَى يَومَ السَّبتِ. فَقالَ لِلنّاسِ: «فِي الأُسبُوعِ سِتَّةُ أيّامٍ يُمكِنُ لِلنّاسِ أنْ يَعمَلُوا فِيها، فَتَعالُوا فِي تِلكَ الأيّامِ وَاستَشْفُوا، لَكِنْ لا تَأْتُوا لِتَستَشْفُوا فِي يَومِ السَّبتِ.»

15 T he Lord then answered him and said, “Hypocrite! Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or donkey from the stall, and lead it away to water it?

فَأجابَهُ الرَّبُّ وَقالَ: «أيُّها المُنافِقُونَ، ألا يُخرِجُ كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنكُمْ ثَورَهُ أوْ حِمارَهُ مِنَ الحَظِيرَةِ فِي السَّبتِ وَيَقُودُهُ لِيَسقِيهِ؟

16 S o ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound—think of it—for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath?”

وَالآنَ هَذِهِ المَرأةُ هِيَ مِنْ نَسلِ إبراهِيْمَ، وَقَدْ رَبَطَها الشَّيطانُ ثَمانِيَ عَشرَةَ سَنَةً. أفَلا يَجوزُ أنْ تَتَحَرَّرَ فِي السَّبتِ مِمّا رَبَطَها؟»

17 A nd when He said these things, all His adversaries were put to shame; and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by Him. The Parable of the Mustard Seed

فَلَمّا قالَ هَذا، أخزَى الَّذِينَ كانُوا يُعارِضُونَهُ. وَكانَ النّاسُ مُبتَهِجِينَ بِسَبَبِ كُلِّ الأعمالِ العَجِيبَةِ الَّتِي صَنَعَها يَسُوعُ. مَثَلا بِذرةُ الخَردَلِ وَالخَميرَة

18 T hen He said, “What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it?

وَقالَ أيضاً: «كَيفَ أصِفُ لَكُمْ مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ؟ وَبِماذا أُشَبِّهُهُ؟

19 I t is like a mustard seed, which a man took and put in his garden; and it grew and became a large tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.” The Parable of the Leaven

إنَّهُ يُشبِهُ بِذرَةَ خَردَلٍ أخَذَها إنسانٌ وَزَرَعَها فِي بُستانِهِ، فَنَمَتْ وَصارَتْ شَجَرَةً. وَصَنَعَتْ طُيُورُ السَّماءِ أعشاشَها فِي أغصانِها.»

20 A nd again He said, “To what shall I liken the kingdom of God?

ثُمَّ قالَ: «أوْ بِماذا أُشَبِّهُ مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ؟

21 I t is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened.” The Narrow Way

إنَّهُ يُشبِهُ خَمِيرَةً أخَذَتْها امْرأةٌ وَخَلَطَتْها فِي ثَلاثَةِ مَقادِيْرَ مِنَ الطَّحِينِ حَتَّى اختَمَرَ العَجينُ كُلُّهُ.» البابُ الضَّيِّق

22 A nd He went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

وَكانَ يَسُوعُ يَمُرُّ عَبرَ المُدُنِ وَالقُرَى، يُعَلِّمُ النّاسَ فِي طَرِيقِهِ إلَى مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ.

23 T hen one said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?” And He said to them,

فَقالَ لَهُ أحَدُهُمْ: «يا سَيِّدُ، هَلِ الَّذِينَ سَيَخلُصُونَ قَلِيلُونَ؟» فَقالَ لَهُ:

24 “ Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able.

«اجتَهِدْ لِلدُّخُولِ مِنَ البابِ الضَّيِّقِ. لِأنِّي أقُولُ لَكُمْ إنَّ كَثِيرِينَ سَيُحاوِلُونَ الدُّخُولَ، لَكِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَقدِرُوا.

25 W hen once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open for us,’ and He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’

فَبَعدَ أنْ يَقُومَ رَبُّ البَيتِ وَيُغلِقَ البابَ، سَتَقِفُونَ خارِجاً وَسَتَقرَعُونَ عَلَى البابِ وَتَقولونَ: ‹افتَحْ لَنا يا رَبُّ!› لَكِنَّهُ سَيُجِيبُكُمْ: ‹لا أعرِفُكُمْ وَلا أعرِفُ مِنْ أينَ أنتُمْ.›

26 t hen you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’

حِينَئِذٍ سَتَقُولُونَ: ‹لَقَدْ أكَلْنا مَعَكَ، وَشَرِبْنا مَعَكَ، وَقَدْ عَلَّمْتَ فِي شَوارِعِنا.›

27 B ut He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’

فَيُجِيبُكُمْ: ‹لا أعرِفُكُمْ، وَلا أعرِفُ مِنْ أينَ أنتُمْ. فَاغرُبُوا عَنْ وَجهِي كُلُّكُمْ يا فاعِلِي الشَّرِّ.›

28 T here will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and yourselves thrust out.

وَسَتَبكُونَ وَتَصِرُّونَ بِأسنانِكُمْ حِينَ تَرَونَ إبراهِيمَ وَإسْحَقَ وَيَعقُوبَ وَكُلَّ الأنبِياءِ فِي مَلَكُوتِ اللهِ، بَينَما أنتُمْ مَطرُودُونَ خارِجاً.

29 T hey will come from the east and the west, from the north and the south, and sit down in the kingdom of God.

وَسَيَأْتِي النّاسُ مِنَ الشَّرقِ وَالغَربِ وَالشَّمالِ وَالجَنُوبِ لِيَأْخُذُوا أماكِنَهُمْ حَولَ المائِدَةِ فِي مَلَكُوتِ اللهِ.

30 A nd indeed there are last who will be first, and there are first who will be last.”

فَآخِرُ النّاسِ الآنَ سَيَكُونُونَ حِينَئِذٍ أوَّلَ النّاسِ، وَأوَّلُ النّاسِ الآنَ سَيَكُونُونَ حِينَئِذٍ آخِرَ النّاسِ!» يَسُوعُ سَيُمُوتُ فِي مَدينَةِ القُدْس

31 O n that very day some Pharisees came, saying to Him, “Get out and depart from here, for Herod wants to kill You.”

فِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ، جاءَ بَعضُ الفِرِّيسِيِّينَ إلَى يَسُوعَ وَقالُوا لَهُ: «اترُكْ هَذا المَكانَ وَاذْهَبْ إلَى مَكانٍ آخَرَ. فَهِيرُودُوسُ يَسعَى إلَى قَتلِكَ.»

32 A nd He said to them, “Go, tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.’

فَقالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «اذهَبُوا وَقُولُوا لِذَلِكَ الثَّعلَبِ: ‹ها إنَّني أطرُدُ أرواحاً شِرِّيرَةً مِنَ النّاسِ، وَأشفِيهُمِ اليَومَ وَغَداً. وَفِي اليَومِ الثّالِثِ سَأُكمِلُ عَمَلِي.›

33 N evertheless I must journey today, tomorrow, and the day following; for it cannot be that a prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem. Jesus Laments over Jerusalem

غَيرَ أنَّهُ يَنْبَغِيُ عَلَيَّ أنْ أمضِيَ فِي طَرِيقِي اليَومَ وَغَداً وَبَعدَ غَدٍ. لِأنَّهُ لا يُمكِنُ لِنَبِيٍّ أنْ يَمُوتَ خارِجَ مَدينَةِ القُدْسِ.

34 “ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing!

يا قُدسُ، يا قُدْسُ، يا مَنْ تَقتُلِينَ الأنبِياءَ وَتَرجُمِينَ رُسُلَ اللهِ إلَيكِ! كَثِيراً ما اشتَقتُ أنْ أجمَعَ أبناءَكِ مَعاً كَدَجاجَةٍ تَجمَعُ صِغارَها تَحتَ جَناحَيْها! لَكِنَّكُمْ رَفَضْتُمْ.

35 S ee! Your house is left to you desolate; and assuredly, I say to you, you shall not see Me until the time comes when you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’ ”

ها إنَّ بَيتَكُمْ سَيُترَكُ لَكُمْ فارِغاً! وَأقُولُ لَكُمْ، لَنْ تَرَونِي مَرَّةً أُخْرَى إلَى أنْ تَقُولُوا: ‹مُبارَكٌ هُوَ الَّذِي يَأْتِي بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ.› »
