١ كورنثوس 1

١ 1 بُولُسُ، ٱلْمَدْعُوُّ رَسُولًا لِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ بِمَشِيئَةِ ٱللهِ، وَسُوسْتَانِيسُ ٱلْأَخُ،

Paul, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

٢ 2 إِلَى كَنِيسَةِ ٱللهِ ٱلَّتِي فِي كُورِنْثُوسَ، ٱلْمُقَدَّسِينَ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، ٱلْمَدْعُوِّينَ قِدِّيسِينَ مَعَ جَمِيعِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ، لَهُمْ وَلَنَا:

unto the church of God which is at Corinth, [even] them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all that call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, their [Lord] and ours:

٣ 3 نِعْمَةٌ لَكُمْ وَسَلَامٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ أَبِينَا وَٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

٤ 4 أَشْكُرُ إِلَهِي فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ مِنْ جِهَتِكُمْ عَلَى نِعْمَةِ ٱللهِ ٱلْمُعْطَاةِ لَكُمْ فِي يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

I thank my God always concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus;

٥ 5 أَنَّكُمْ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ ٱسْتَغْنَيْتُمْ فِيهِ فِي كُلِّ كَلِمَةٍ وَكُلِّ عِلْمٍ،

that in everything ye were enriched in him, in all utterance and all knowledge;

٦ 6 كَمَا ثُبِّتَتْ فِيكُمْ شَهَادَةُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

٧ 7 حَتَّى إِنَّكُمْ لَسْتُمْ نَاقِصِينَ فِي مَوْهِبَةٍ مَّا، وَأَنْتُمْ مُتَوَقِّعُونَ ٱسْتِعْلَانَ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

so that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;

٨ 8 ٱلَّذِي سَيُثْبِتُكُمْ أَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلنِّهَايَةِ بِلَا لَوْمٍ فِي يَوْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

who shall also confirm you unto the end, [that ye be] unreproveable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

٩ 9 أَمِينٌ هُوَ ٱللهُ ٱلَّذِي بِهِ دُعِيتُمْ إِلَى شَرِكَةِ ٱبْنِهِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ رَبِّنَا.

God is faithful, through whom ye were called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

١٠ 10 وَلَكِنَّنِي أَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، بِٱسْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، أَنْ تَقُولُوا جَمِيعُكُمْ قَوْلًا وَاحِدًا، وَلَا يَكُونَ بَيْنَكُمُ ٱنْشِقَاقَاتٌ، بَلْ كُونُوا كَامِلِينَ فِي فِكْرٍ وَاحِدٍ وَرَأْيٍ وَاحِدٍ،

Now I beseech you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

١١ 11 لِأَنِّي أُخْبِرْتُ عَنْكُمْ يَا إِخْوَتِي مِنْ أَهْلِ خُلُوِي أَنَّ بَيْنَكُمْ خُصُومَاتٍ.

For it hath been signified unto me concerning you, my brethren, by them [that are of the household] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

١٢ 12 فَأَنَا أَعْنِي هَذَا: أَنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ يَقُولُ: «أَنَا لِبُولُسَ»، وَ«أَنَا لِأَبُلُّوسَ»، وَ«أَنَا لِصَفَا»، وَ«أَنَا لِلْمَسِيحِ».

Now this I mean, that each one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

١٣ 13 هَلِ ٱنْقَسَمَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ؟ أَلَعَلَّ بُولُسَ صُلِبَ لِأَجْلِكُمْ، أَمْ بِٱسْمِ بُولُسَ ٱعْتَمَدْتُمْ؟

Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized into the name of Paul?

١٤ 14 أَشْكُرُ ٱللهَ أَنِّي لَمْ أُعَمِّدْ أَحَدًا مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا كِرِيسْبُسَ وَغَايُسَ،

I thank God that I baptized none of you, save Crispus and Gaius;

١٥ 15 حَتَّى لَا يَقُولَ أَحَدٌ إِنِّي عَمَّدْتُ بِٱسْمِي.

lest any man should say that ye were baptized into my name.

١٦ 16 وَعَمَّدْتُ أَيْضًا بَيْتَ ٱسْتِفَانُوسَ. عَدَا ذَلِكَ لَسْتُ أَعْلَمُ هَلْ عَمَّدْتُ أَحَدًا آخَرَ،

And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

١٧ 17 لِأَنَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ لَمْ يُرْسِلْنِي لِأُعَمِّدَ بَلْ لِأُبَشِّرَ، لَا بِحِكْمَةِ كَلَامٍ لِئَلَّا يَتَعَطَّلَ صَلِيبُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.

١٨ 18 فَإِنَّ كَلِمَةَ ٱلصَّلِيبِ عِنْدَ ٱلْهَالِكِينَ جَهَالَةٌ، وَأَمَّا عِنْدَنَا نَحْنُ ٱلْمُخَلَّصِينَ فَهِيَ قُوَّةُ ٱللهِ،

For the word of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us who are saved it is the power of God.

١٩ 19 لِأَنَّهُ مَكْتُوبٌ: «سَأُبِيدُ حِكْمَةَ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ، وَأَرْفُضُ فَهْمَ ٱلْفُهَمَاءِ».

For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And the discernment of the discerning will I bring to nought.

٢٠ 20 أَيْنَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ؟ أَيْنَ ٱلْكَاتِبُ؟ أَيْنَ مُبَاحِثُ هَذَا ٱلدَّهْرِ؟ أَلَمْ يُجَهِّلِ ٱللهُ حِكْمَةَ هَذَا ٱلْعَالَمِ؟ (aiōn g165)

Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? (aiōn g165)

٢١ 21 لِأَنَّهُ إِذْ كَانَ ٱلْعَالَمُ فِي حِكْمَةِ ٱللهِ لَمْ يَعْرِفِ ٱللهَ بِٱلْحِكْمَةِ، ٱسْتَحْسَنَ ٱللهُ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِجَهَالَةِ ٱلْكِرَازَةِ.

For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom knew not God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save them that believe.

٢٢ 22 لِأَنَّ ٱلْيَهُودَ يَسْأَلُونَ آيَةً، وَٱلْيُونَانِيِّينَ يَطْلُبُونَ حِكْمَةً،

Seeing that Jews ask for signs, and Greeks seek after wisdom:

٢٣ 23 وَلَكِنَّنَا نَحْنُ نَكْرِزُ بِٱلْمَسِيحِ مَصْلُوبًا: لِلْيَهُودِ عَثْرَةً، وَلِلْيُونَانِيِّينَ جَهَالَةً!

but we preach Christ crucified, unto Jews a stumblingblock, and unto Gentiles foolishness;

٢٤ 24 وَأَمَّا لِلْمَدْعُوِّينَ: يَهُودًا وَيُونَانِيِّينَ، فَبِٱلْمَسِيحِ قُوَّةِ ٱللهِ وَحِكْمَةِ ٱللهِ.

but unto them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

٢٥ 25 لِأَنَّ جَهَالَةَ ٱللهِ أَحْكَمُ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ! وَضَعْفَ ٱللهِ أَقْوَى مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ!

Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

٢٦ 26 فَٱنْظُرُوا دَعْوَتَكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، أَنْ لَيْسَ كَثِيرُونَ حُكَمَاءَ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ، لَيْسَ كَثِيرُونَ أَقْوِيَاءَ، لَيْسَ كَثِيرُونَ شُرَفَاءَ،

For behold your calling, brethren, that not many wise after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]:

٢٧ 27 بَلِ ٱخْتَارَ ٱللهُ جُهَّالَ ٱلْعَالَمِ لِيُخْزِيَ ٱلْحُكَمَاءَ. وَٱخْتَارَ ٱللهُ ضُعَفَاءَ ٱلْعَالَمِ لِيُخْزِيَ ٱلْأَقْوِيَاءَ.

but God chose the foolish things of the world, that he might put to shame them that are wise; and God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong;

٢٨ 28 وَٱخْتَارَ ٱللهُ أَدْنِيَاءَ ٱلْعَالَمِ وَٱلْمُزْدَرَى وَغَيْرَ ٱلْمَوْجُودِ لِيُبْطِلَ ٱلْمَوْجُودَ،

and the base things of the world, and the things that are despised, did God choose, [yea] and the things that are not, that he might bring to nought the things that are:

٢٩ 29 لِكَيْ لَا يَفْتَخِرَ كُلُّ ذِي جَسَدٍ أَمَامَهُ.

that no flesh should glory before God.

٣٠ 30 وَمِنْهُ أَنْتُمْ بِٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، ٱلَّذِي صَارَ لَنَا حِكْمَةً مِنَ ٱللهِ وَبِرًّا وَقَدَاسَةً وَفِدَاءً.

But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who was made unto us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

٣١ 31 حَتَّى كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «مَنِ ٱفْتَخَرَ فَلْيَفْتَخِرْ بِٱلرَّبِّ».

that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
