١ تسالونيكي 5

١ 1 وَأَمَّا ٱلْأَزْمِنَةُ وَٱلْأَوْقَاتُ فَلَا حَاجَةَ لَكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنْ أَكْتُبَ إِلَيْكُمْ عَنْهَا،

Now concerning the times and seasons, brothers, you have no need for anything to be written to you.

٢ 2 لِأَنَّكُمْ أَنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ بِٱلتَّحْقِيقِ أَنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ كَلِصٍّ فِي ٱللَّيْلِ هَكَذَا يَجِيءُ.

For you yourselves know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

٣ 3 لِأَنَّهُ حِينَمَا يَقُولُونَ: «سَلَامٌ وَأَمَانٌ»، حِينَئِذٍ يُفَاجِئُهُمْ هَلَاكٌ بَغْتَةً، كَٱلْمَخَاضِ لِلْحُبْلَى، فَلَا يَنْجُونَ.

When people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come upon them suddenly, like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will certainly not escape.

٤ 4 وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ فَلَسْتُمْ فِي ظُلْمَةٍ حَتَّى يُدْرِكَكُمْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ كَلِصٍّ.

But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should catch you like a thief.

٥ 5 جَمِيعُكُمْ أَبْنَاءُ نُورٍ وَأَبْنَاءُ نَهَارٍ. لَسْنَا مِنْ لَيْلٍ وَلَا ظُلْمَةٍ.

You are all sons of light and sons of the day; we are not of the night or of the darkness.

٦ 6 فَلَا نَنَمْ إِذًا كَٱلْبَاقِينَ، بَلْ لِنَسْهَرْ وَنَصْحُ.

So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us be watchful and sober.

٧ 7 لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَنَامُونَ فَبِاللَّيْلِ يَنَامُونَ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَسْكَرُونَ فَبِاللَّيْلِ يَسْكَرُونَ.

For those who sleep, sleep at night; and those who get drunk, get drunk at night.

٨ 8 وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ ٱلَّذِينَ مِنْ نَهَارٍ، فَلْنَصْحُ لَابِسِينَ دِرْعَ ٱلْإِيمَانِ وَٱلْمَحَبَّةِ، وَخُوذَةً هِيَ رَجَاءُ ٱلْخَلَاصِ.

But since we are of the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and the hope of salvation as a helmet.

٩ 9 لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ لَمْ يَجْعَلْنَا لِلْغَضَبِ، بَلْ لِٱقْتِنَاءِ ٱلْخَلَاصِ بِرَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

For God has not appointed us to suffer wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

١٠ 10 ٱلَّذِي مَاتَ لِأَجْلِنَا، حَتَّى إِذَا سَهِرْنَا أَوْ نِمْنَا نَحْيَا جَمِيعًا مَعَهُ.

who died for us so that whether we are awake or asleep we may live together with him.

١١ 11 لِذَلِكَ عَزُّوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا وَٱبْنُوا أَحَدُكُمُ ٱلْآخَرَ، كَمَا تَفْعَلُونَ أَيْضًا.

Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, even as you are doing.

١٢ 12 ثُمَّ نَسْأَلُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا ٱلَّذِينَ يَتْعَبُونَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَيُدَبِّرُونَكُمْ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ وَيُنْذِرُونَكُمْ،

Now we ask you, brothers, to recognize those who labor among you, who lead you in the Lord and admonish you,

١٣ 13 وَأَنْ تَعْتَبِرُوهُمْ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا فِي ٱلْمَحَبَّةِ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَمَلِهِمْ. سَالِمُوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا.

and to regard them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace with one another.

١٤ 14 وَنَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ: أَنْذِرُوا ٱلَّذِينَ بِلَا تَرْتِيبٍ. شَجِّعُوا صِغَارَ ٱلنُّفُوسِ. أَسْنِدُوا ٱلضُّعَفَاءَ. تَأَنَّوْا عَلَى ٱلْجَمِيعِ.

And we urge you, brothers, to admonish those who are idle, encourage the fainthearted, support the weak, and be patient toward all.

١٥ 15 ٱنْظُرُوا أَنْ لَا يُجَازِيَ أَحَدٌ أَحَدًا عَنْ شَرٍّ بِشَرٍّ، بَلْ كُلَّ حِينٍ ٱتَّبِعُوا ٱلْخَيْرَ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ وَلِلْجَمِيعِ.

Make sure no one repays anyone evil for evil, but always strive to do good to each other and to everyone else.

١٦ 16 ٱفْرَحُوا كُلَّ حِينٍ.

Rejoice always,

١٧ 17 صَلُّوا بِلَا ٱنْقِطَاعٍ.

pray without ceasing,

١٨ 18 ٱشْكُرُوا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، لِأَنَّ هَذِهِ هِيَ مَشِيئَةُ ٱللهِ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ مِنْ جِهَتِكُمْ.

and in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

١٩ 19 لَا تُطْفِئُوا ٱلرُّوحَ.

Do not quench the Spirit.

٢٠ 20 لَا تَحْتَقِرُوا ٱلنُّبُوَّاتِ.

Do not despise prophecies,

٢١ 21 ٱمْتَحِنُوا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، تَمَسَّكُوا بِٱلْحَسَنِ.

but test everything; hold fast to what is good.

٢٢ 22 ٱمْتَنِعُوا عَنْ كُلِّ شِبْهِ شَرٍّ.

Avoid every form of evil.

٢٣ 23 وَإِلَهُ ٱلسَّلَامِ نَفْسُهُ يُقَدِّسُكُمْ بِٱلتَّمَامِ. وَلْتُحْفَظْ رُوحُكُمْ وَنَفْسُكُمْ وَجَسَدُكُمْ كَامِلَةً بِلَا لَوْمٍ عِنْدَ مَجِيءِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your entire spirit, soul, and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

٢٤ 24 أَمِينٌ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يَدْعُوكُمُ ٱلَّذِي سَيَفْعَلُ أَيْضًا.

He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it.

٢٥ 25 أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، صَلُّوا لِأَجْلِنَا.

Brothers, pray for us.

٢٦ 26 سَلِّمُوا عَلَى ٱلْإِخْوَةِ جَمِيعًا بِقُبْلَةٍ مُقَدَّسَةٍ.

Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss.

٢٧ 27 أُنَاشِدُكُمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ تُقْرَأَ هَذِهِ ٱلرِّسَالَةُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ.

I charge you by the Lord to have this letter read to all the holy brothers.

٢٨ 28 نِعْمَةُ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ مَعَكُمْ. آمِينَ.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
