١ تيموثاوس 4

١ 1 وَلَكِنَّ ٱلرُّوحَ يَقُولُ صَرِيحًا: إِنَّهُ فِي ٱلْأَزْمِنَةِ ٱلْأَخِيرَةِ يَرْتَدُّ قَوْمٌ عَنِ ٱلْإِيمَانِ، تَابِعِينَ أَرْوَاحًا مُضِلَّةً وَتَعَالِيمَ شَيَاطِينَ،

Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of demons;

٢ 2 فِي رِيَاءِ أَقْوَالٍ كَاذِبَةٍ، مَوْسُومَةً ضَمَائِرُهُمْ،

Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

٣ 3 مَانِعِينَ عَنِ ٱلزِّوَاجِ، وَآمِرِينَ أَنْ يُمْتَنَعَ عَنْ أَطْعِمَةٍ قَدْ خَلَقَهَا ٱللهُ لِتُتَنَاوَلَ بِٱلشُّكْرِ مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَعَارِفِي ٱلْحَقِّ.

Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by them who believe and know the truth.

٤ 4 لِأَنَّ كُلَّ خَلِيقَةِ ٱللهِ جَيِّدَةٌ، وَلَا يُرْفَضُ شَيْءٌ إِذَا أُخِذَ مَعَ ٱلشُّكْرِ،

For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it is received with thanksgiving:

٥ 5 لِأَنَّهُ يُقَدَّسُ بِكَلِمَةِ ٱللهِ وَٱلصَّلَاةِ.

For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

٦ 6 إِنْ فَكَّرْتَ ٱلْإِخْوَةَ بِهَذَا، تَكُونُ خَادِمًا صَالِحًا لِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، مُتَرَبِّيًا بِكَلَامِ ٱلْإِيمَانِ وَٱلتَّعْلِيمِ ٱلْحَسَنِ ٱلَّذِي تَتَبَّعْتَهُ.

If thou shalt put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished by the words of faith and of good doctrine, to which thou hast attained.

٧ 7 وَأَمَّا ٱلْخُرَافَاتُ ٱلدَّنِسَةُ ٱلْعَجَائِزِيَّةُ فَٱرْفُضْهَا، وَرَوِّضْ نَفْسَكَ لِلتَّقْوَى.

But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather to godliness.

٨ 8 لِأَنَّ ٱلرِّيَاضَةَ ٱلْجَسَدِيَّةَ نَافِعَةٌ لِقَلِيلٍ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱلتَّقْوَى نَافِعَةٌ لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ، إِذْ لَهَا مَوْعِدُ ٱلْحَيَاةِ ٱلْحَاضِرَةِ وَٱلْعَتِيدَةِ،

For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable to all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.

٩ 9 صَادِقَةٌ هِيَ ٱلْكَلِمَةُ وَمُسْتَحِقَّةٌ كُلَّ قُبُولٍ.

This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّنَا لِهَذَا نَتْعَبُ وَنُعَيَّرُ، لِأَنَّنَا قَدْ أَلْقَيْنَا رَجَاءَنَا عَلَى ٱللهِ ٱلْحَيِّ، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ مُخَلِّصُ جَمِيعِ ٱلنَّاسِ، وَلَا سِيَّمَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ.

For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, especially of those that believe.

١١ 11 أَوْصِ بِهَذَا وَعَلِّمْ.

These things command and teach.

١٢ 12 لَا يَسْتَهِنْ أَحَدٌ بِحَدَاثَتِكَ، بَلْ كُنْ قُدْوَةً لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ: فِي ٱلْكَلَامِ، فِي ٱلتَّصَرُّفِ، فِي ٱلْمَحَبَّةِ، فِي ٱلرُّوحِ، فِي ٱلْإِيمَانِ، فِي ٱلطَّهَارَةِ.

Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conduct, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

١٣ 13 إِلَى أَنْ أَجِيءَ ٱعْكُفْ عَلَى ٱلْقِرَاءَةِ وَٱلْوَعْظِ وَٱلتَّعْلِيمِ.

Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

١٤ 14 لَا تُهْمِلِ ٱلْمَوْهِبَةَ ٱلَّتِي فِيكَ، ٱلْمُعْطَاةَ لَكَ بِٱلنُّبُوَّةِ مَعَ وَضْعِ أَيْدِي ٱلْمَشْيَخَةِ.

Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.

١٥ 15 ٱهْتَمَّ بِهَذَا. كُنْ فِيهِ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ تَقَدُّمُكَ ظَاهِرًا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ.

Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.

١٦ 16 لَاحِظْ نَفْسَكَ وَٱلتَّعْلِيمَ وَدَاوِمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، لِأَنَّكَ إِذَا فَعَلْتَ هَذَا، تُخَلِّصُ نَفْسَكَ وَٱلَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَكَ أَيْضًا.

Take heed to thyself, and to thy doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
