١ بطرس 3
| كَذَلِكُنَّ أَيَّتُهَا ٱلنِّسَاءُ، كُنَّ خَاضِعَاتٍ لِرِجَالِكُنَّ، حَتَّى وَإِنْ كَانَ ٱلْبَعْضُ لَا يُطِيعُونَ ٱلْكَلِمَةَ، يُرْبَحُونَ بِسِيرَةِ ٱلنِّسَاءِ بِدُونِ كَلِمَةٍ، | ١ 1 |
In the same way, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands, so that, even if any don’t obey the Word, they may be won by the behaviour of their wives without a word,
| مُلَاحِظِينَ سِيرَتَكُنَّ ٱلطَّاهِرَةَ بِخَوْفٍ. | ٢ 2 |
seeing your pure behaviour in fear.
| وَلَا تَكُنْ زِينَتُكُنَّ ٱلزِّينَةَ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةَ، مِنْ ضَفْرِ ٱلشَّعْرِ وَٱلتَّحَلِّي بِٱلذَّهَبِ وَلِبْسِ ٱلثِّيَابِ، | ٣ 3 |
Let your beauty come not from the outward adorning of braiding your hair, and of wearing gold ornaments or of putting on fine clothing,
| بَلْ إِنْسَانَ ٱلْقَلْبِ ٱلْخَفِيَّ فِي ٱلْعَدِيمَةِ ٱلْفَسَادِ، زِينَةَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْوَدِيعِ ٱلْهَادِئ، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ قُدَّامَ ٱللهِ كَثِيرُ ٱلثَّمَنِ. | ٤ 4 |
but from the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in God’s sight.
| فَإِنَّهُ هَكَذَا كَانَتْ قَدِيمًا ٱلنِّسَاءُ ٱلْقِدِّيسَاتُ أَيْضًا ٱلْمُتَوَكِّلَاتُ عَلَى ٱللهِ، يُزَيِّنَّ أَنْفُسَهُنَّ خَاضِعَاتٍ لِرِجَالِهِنَّ، | ٥ 5 |
For this is how in the past the holy women who hoped in God also adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands.
| كَمَا كَانَتْ سَارَةُ تُطِيعُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ دَاعِيَةً إِيَّاهُ «سَيِّدَهَا». ٱلَّتِي صِرْتُنَّ أَوْلَادَهَا، صَانِعَاتٍ خَيْرًا، وَغَيْرَ خَائِفَاتٍ خَوْفًا ٱلْبَتَّةَ. | ٦ 6 |
So Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose children you now are if you do well and are not put in fear by any terror.
| كَذَلِكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ، كُونُوا سَاكِنِينَ بِحَسَبِ ٱلْفِطْنَةِ مَعَ ٱلْإِنَاءِ ٱلنِّسَائِيِّ كَٱلْأَضْعَفِ، مُعْطِينَ إِيَّاهُنَّ كَرَامَةً، كَٱلْوَارِثَاتِ أَيْضًا مَعَكُمْ نِعْمَةَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ، لِكَيْ لَا تُعَاقَ صَلَوَاتُكُمْ. | ٧ 7 |
You husbands, in the same way, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honour to the woman as to the weaker vessel, as also being joint heirs of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.
| وَٱلنِّهَايَةُ، كُونُوا جَمِيعًا مُتَّحِدِي ٱلرَّأْيِ بِحِسٍّ وَاحِدٍ، ذَوِي مَحَبَّةٍ أَخَوِيَّةٍ، مُشْفِقِينَ، لُطَفَاءَ، | ٨ 8 |
Finally, all of you be like-minded, compassionate, loving as brothers, tenderhearted, courteous,
| غَيْرَ مُجَازِينَ عَنْ شَرٍّ بِشَرٍّ أَوْ عَنْ شَتِيمَةٍ بِشَتِيمَةٍ، بَلْ بِٱلْعَكْسِ مُبَارِكِينَ، عَالِمِينَ أَنَّكُمْ لِهَذَا دُعِيتُمْ لِكَيْ تَرِثُوا بَرَكَةً. | ٩ 9 |
not rendering evil for evil or insult for insult; but instead blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.
| لِأَنَّ: «مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُحِبَّ ٱلْحَيَاةَ، وَيَرَى أَيَّامًا صَالِحَةً، فَلْيَكْفُفْ لِسَانَهُ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ، وَشَفَتَيْهِ أَنْ تَتَكَلَّمَا بِٱلْمَكْرِ، | ١٠ 10 |
For, “He who would love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit.
| لِيُعْرِضْ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ، وَيَصْنَعِ ٱلْخَيْرَ، لِيَطْلُبِ ٱلسَّلَامَ، وَيَجِدَّ فِي أَثَرِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
Let him turn away from evil and do good. Let him seek peace and pursue it.
| لِأَنَّ عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى ٱلْأَبْرَارِ، وَأُذْنَيْهِ إِلَى طَلِبَتِهِمْ، وَلَكِنَّ وَجْهَ ٱلرَّبِّ ضِدُّ فَاعِلِي ٱلشَّرِّ». | ١٢ 12 |
For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears open to their prayer; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
| فَمَنْ يُؤْذِيكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُتَمَثِّلِينَ بِٱلْخَيْرِ؟ | ١٣ 13 |
Now who will harm you if you become imitators of that which is good?
| وَلَكِنْ وَإِنْ تَأَلَّمْتُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْبِرِّ، فَطُوبَاكُمْ. وَأَمَّا خَوْفَهُمْ فَلَا تَخَافُوهُ وَلَا تَضْطَرِبُوا، | ١٤ 14 |
But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. “Don’t fear what they fear, neither be troubled.”
| بَلْ قَدِّسُوا ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلْإِلَهَ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ، مُسْتَعِدِّينَ دَائِمًا لِمُجَاوَبَةِ كُلِّ مَنْ يَسْأَلُكُمْ عَنْ سَبَبِ ٱلرَّجَاءِ ٱلَّذِي فِيكُمْ، بِوَدَاعَةٍ وَخَوْفٍ، | ١٥ 15 |
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. Always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, with humility and fear,
| وَلَكُمْ ضَمِيرٌ صَالِحٌ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَشْتِمُونَ سِيرَتَكُمُ ٱلصَّالِحَةَ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ، يُخْزَوْنَ فِي مَا يَفْتَرُونَ عَلَيْكُمْ كَفَاعِلِي شَرٍّ. | ١٦ 16 |
having a good conscience. Thus, while you are spoken against as evildoers, they may be disappointed who curse your good way of life in Christ.
| لِأَنَّ تَأَلُّمَكُمْ إِنْ شَاءَتْ مَشِيئَةُ ٱللهِ، وَأَنْتُمْ صَانِعُونَ خَيْرًا، أَفْضَلُ مِنْهُ وَأَنْتُمْ صَانِعُونَ شَرًّا. | ١٧ 17 |
For it is better, if it is God’s will, that you suffer for doing what is right than for doing evil.
| فَإِنَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ أَيْضًا تَأَلَّمَ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْخَطَايَا، ٱلْبَارُّ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْأَثَمَةِ، لِكَيْ يُقَرِّبَنَا إِلَى ٱللهِ، مُمَاتًا فِي ٱلْجَسَدِ وَلَكِنْ مُحْيىً فِي ٱلرُّوحِ، | ١٨ 18 |
Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit,
| ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ أَيْضًا ذَهَبَ فَكَرَزَ لِلْأَرْوَاحِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلسِّجْنِ، | ١٩ 19 |
in whom he also went and preached to the spirits in prison,
| إِذْ عَصَتْ قَدِيمًا، حِينَ كَانَتْ أَنَاةُ ٱللهِ تَنْتَظِرُ مَرَّةً فِي أَيَّامِ نُوحٍ، إِذْ كَانَ ٱلْفُلْكُ يُبْنَى، ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ خَلَصَ قَلِيلُونَ، أَيْ ثَمَانِي أَنْفُسٍ بِٱلْمَاءِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
who before were disobedient when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ship was being built. In it, few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.
| ٱلَّذِي مِثَالُهُ يُخَلِّصُنَا نَحْنُ ٱلْآنَ، أَيِ ٱلْمَعْمُودِيَّةُ. لَا إِزَالَةُ وَسَخِ ٱلْجَسَدِ، بَلْ سُؤَالُ ضَمِيرٍ صَالِحٍ عَنِ ٱللهِ، بِقِيَامَةِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، | ٢١ 21 |
This is a symbol of baptism, which now saves you—not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience towards God—through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
| ٱلَّذِي هُوَ فِي يَمِينِ ٱللهِ، إِذْ قَدْ مَضَى إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَمَلَائِكَةٌ وَسَلَاطِينُ وَقُوَّاتٌ مُخْضَعَةٌ لَهُ. | ٢٢ 22 |
who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him.
