< ٢ بطرس 2 >

وَلَكِنْ، كَانَ أَيْضًا فِي ٱلشَّعْبِ أَنْبِيَاءُ كَذَبَةٌ، كَمَا سَيَكُونُ فِيكُمْ أَيْضًا مُعَلِّمُونَ كَذَبَةٌ، ٱلَّذِينَ يَدُسُّونَ بِدَعَ هَلَاكٍ. وَإِذْ هُمْ يُنْكِرُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلَّذِي ٱشْتَرَاهُمْ، يَجْلِبُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ هَلَاكًا سَرِيعًا. ١ 1
But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will privately bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
وَسَيَتْبَعُ كَثِيرُونَ تَهْلُكَاتِهِمْ. ٱلَّذِينَ بِسَبَبِهِمْ يُجَدَّفُ عَلَى طَرِيقِ ٱلْحَقِّ. ٢ 2
And many will follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth will be evil spoken of.
وَهُمْ فِي ٱلطَّمَعِ يَتَّجِرُونَ بِكُمْ بِأَقْوَالٍ مُصَنَّعَةٍ، ٱلَّذِينَ دَيْنُونَتُهُمْ مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ لَا تَتَوَانَى، وَهَلَاكُهُمْ لَا يَنْعَسُ. ٣ 3
And through covetousness they will with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
لِأَنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ ٱللهُ لَمْ يُشْفِقْ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةٍ قَدْ أَخْطَأُوا، بَلْ فِي سَلَاسِلِ ٱلظَّلَامِ طَرَحَهُمْ فِي جَهَنَّمَ، وَسَلَّمَهُمْ مَحْرُوسِينَ لِلْقَضَاءِ، (Tartaroō g5020) ٤ 4
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast [them] down to hell, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved to judgment; (Tartaroō g5020)
وَلَمْ يُشْفِقْ عَلَى ٱلْعَالَمِ ٱلْقَدِيمِ، بَلْ إِنَّمَا حَفِظَ نُوحًا ثَامِنًا كَارِزًا لِلْبِرِّ، إِذْ جَلَبَ طُوفَانًا عَلَى عَالَمِ ٱلْفُجَّارِ. ٥ 5
And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth [person], a preacher of righteousness, bringing the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
وَإِذْ رَمَّدَ مَدِينَتَيْ سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ، حَكَمَ عَلَيْهِمَا بِٱلِٱنْقِلَابِ، وَاضِعًا عِبْرَةً لِلْعَتِيدِينَ أَنْ يَفْجُرُوا، ٦ 6
And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned [them] with an overthrow, making [them] an example to those that afterwards should live ungodly lives.
وَأَنْقَذَ لُوطًا ٱلْبَارَّ، مَغْلُوبًا مِنْ سِيرَةِ ٱلْأَرْدِيَاءِ فِي ٱلدَّعَارَةِ. ٧ 7
And delivered just Lot, grieved with the habitual lewdness of the wicked:
إِذْ كَانَ ٱلْبَارُّ، بِٱلنَّظَرِ وَٱلسَّمْعِ وَهُوَ سَاكِنٌ بَيْنَهُمْ، يُعَذِّبُ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا نَفْسَهُ ٱلْبَارَّةَ بِٱلْأَفْعَالِ ٱلْأَثِيمَةِ. ٨ 8
(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, grieved [his] righteous soul from day to day with [their] unlawful deeds; )
يَعْلَمُ ٱلرَّبُّ أَنْ يُنْقِذَ ٱلْأَتْقِيَاءَ مِنَ ٱلتَّجْرِبَةِ، وَيَحْفَظَ ٱلْأَثَمَةَ إِلَى يَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ مُعَاقَبِينَ، ٩ 9
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust to the day of judgment to be punished:
وَلَا سِيَّمَا ٱلَّذِينَ يَذْهَبُونَ وَرَاءَ ٱلْجَسَدِ فِي شَهْوَةِ ٱلنَّجَاسَةِ، وَيَسْتَهِينُونَ بِٱلسِّيَادَةِ. جَسُورُونَ، مُعْجِبُونَ بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ، لَا يَرْتَعِبُونَ أَنْ يَفْتَرُوا عَلَى ذَوِي ٱلْأَمْجَادِ، ١٠ 10
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous [are they], self-willed; they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
حَيْثُ مَلَائِكَةٌ- وَهُمْ أَعْظَمُ قُوَّةً وَقُدْرَةً - لَا يُقَدِّمُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ حُكْمَ ٱفْتِرَاءٍ. ١١ 11
Whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
أَمَّا هَؤُلَاءِ فَكَحَيَوَانَاتٍ غَيْرِ نَاطِقَةٍ، طَبِيعِيَّةٍ، مَوْلُودَةٍ لِلصَّيْدِ وَٱلْهَلَاكِ، يَفْتَرُونَ عَلَى مَا يَجْهَلُونَ، فَسَيَهْلِكُونَ فِي فَسَادِهِمْ، ١٢ 12
But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption:
آخِذِينَ أُجْرَةَ ٱلْإِثْمِ. ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْسِبُونَ تَنَعُّمَ يَوْمٍ لَذَّةً. أَدْنَاسٌ وَعُيُوبٌ، يَتَنَعَّمُونَ فِي غُرُورِهِمْ صَانِعِينَ وَلَائِمَ مَعَكُمْ. ١٣ 13
And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, [as] they that count it pleasure to riot in the day-time. Spots [they are] and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
لَهُمْ عُيُونٌ مَمْلُوَّةٌ فِسْقًا، لَا تَكُفُّ عَنِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ، خَادِعُونَ ٱلنُّفُوسَ غَيْرَ ٱلثَّابِتَةِ. لَهُمْ قَلْبٌ مُتَدَرِّبٌ فِي ٱلطَّمَعِ. أَوْلَادُ ٱللَّعْنَةِ. ١٤ 14
Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: they have a heart exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
قَدْ تَرَكُوا ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ، فَضَلُّوا، تَابِعِينَ طَرِيقَ بَلْعَامَ بْنِ بَصُورَ ٱلَّذِي أَحَبَّ أُجْرَةَ ٱلْإِثْمِ. ١٥ 15
Who have forsaken the right way, and gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
وَلَكِنَّهُ حَصَلَ عَلَى تَوْبِيخِ تَعَدِّيهِ، إِذْ مَنَعَ حَمَاقَةَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ حِمَارٌ أَعْجَمُ نَاطِقًا بِصَوْتِ إِنْسَانٍ. ١٦ 16
But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice, forbad the madness of the prophet.
هَؤُلَاءِ هُمْ آبَارٌ بِلَا مَاءٍ، غُيُومٌ يَسُوقُهَا ٱلنَّوْءُ. ٱلَّذِينَ قَدْ حُفِظَ لَهُمْ قَتَامُ ٱلظَّلَامِ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. (questioned) ١٧ 17
These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. (questioned)
لِأَنَّهُمْ إِذْ يَنْطِقُونَ بِعَظَائِمِ ٱلْبُطْلِ، يَخْدَعُونَ بِشَهَوَاتِ ٱلْجَسَدِ فِي ٱلدَّعَارَةِ، مَنْ هَرَبَ قَلِيلًا مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسِيرُونَ فِي ٱلضَّلَالِ، ١٨ 18
For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness, those that had quite escaped from them who live in error.
وَاعِدِينَ إِيَّاهُمْ بِٱلْحُرِّيَّةِ، وَهُمْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ عَبِيدُ ٱلْفَسَادِ. لِأَنَّ مَا ٱنْغَلَبَ مِنْهُ أَحَدٌ، فَهُوَ لَهُ مُسْتَعْبَدٌ أَيْضًا! ١٩ 19
While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for by whom a man is overcome, by the same is he brought into bondage.
لِأَنَّهُ إِذَا كَانُوا، بَعْدَمَا هَرَبُوا مِنْ نَجَاسَاتِ ٱلْعَالَمِ، بِمَعْرِفَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَٱلْمُخَلِّصِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، يَرْتَبِكُونَ أَيْضًا فِيهَا، فَيَنْغَلِبُونَ، فَقَدْ صَارَتْ لَهُمُ ٱلْأَوَاخِرُ أَشَرَّ مِنَ ٱلْأَوَائِلِ. ٢٠ 20
For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ لَوْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا طَرِيقَ ٱلْبِرِّ، مِنْ أَنَّهُمْ بَعْدَمَا عَرَفُوا، يَرْتَدُّونَ عَنِ ٱلْوَصِيَّةِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ ٱلْمُسَلَّمَةِ لَهُمْ. ٢١ 21
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.
قَدْ أَصَابَهُمْ مَا فِي ٱلْمَثَلِ ٱلصَّادِقِ: «كَلْبٌ قَدْ عَادَ إِلَى قَيْئِهِ»، وَ«خِنْزِيرَةٌ مُغْتَسِلَةٌ إِلَى مَرَاغَةِ ٱلْحَمْأَةِ». ٢٢ 22
But it hath happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog [is] turned to his own vomit again; and, The sow that was washed, to her wallowing in the mire.
