< أعمال 28 >

وَلَمَّا نَجَوْا وَجَدُوا أَنَّ ٱلْجَزِيرَةَ تُدْعَى مَلِيطَةَ. ١ 1
And when we were safe, we made the discovery that the island was named Melita.
فَقَدَّمَ أَهْلُهَا ٱلْبَرَابِرَةُ لَنَا إِحْسَانًا غَيْرَ ٱلْمُعْتَادِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ أَوْقَدُوا نَارًا وَقَبِلُوا جَمِيعَنَا مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْمَطَرِ ٱلَّذِي أَصَابَنَا وَمِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْبَرْدِ. ٢ 2
And the simple people living there were uncommonly kind to us, for they made a fire for us, and took us in, because it was raining and cold.
فَجَمَعَ بُولُسُ كَثِيرًا مِنَ ٱلْقُضْبَانِ وَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ، فَخَرَجَتْ مِنَ ٱلْحَرَارَةِ أَفْعَى وَنَشِبَتْ فِي يَدِهِ. ٣ 3
But when Paul had got some sticks together and put them on the fire, a snake came out, because of the heat, and gave him a bite on the hand.
فَلَمَّا رَأَى ٱلْبَرَابِرَةُ ٱلْوَحْشَ مُعَلَّقًا بِيَدِهِ، قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «لَا بُدَّ أَنَّ هَذَا ٱلْإِنْسَانَ قَاتِلٌ، لَمْ يَدَعْهُ ٱلْعَدْلُ يَحْيَا وَلَوْ نَجَا مِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ». ٤ 4
And when the people saw it hanging on his hand, they said to one another, Without doubt this man has put someone to death, and though he has got safely away from the sea, God will not let him go on living.
فَنَفَضَ هُوَ ٱلْوَحْشَ إِلَى ٱلنَّارِ وَلَمْ يَتَضَرَّرْ بِشَيْءٍ رَدِيٍّ ٥ 5
But shaking off the beast into the fire, he got no damage.
وَأَمَّا هُمْ فَكَانُوا يَنْتَظِرُونَ أَنَّهُ عَتِيدٌ أَنْ يَنْتَفِخَ أَوْ يَسْقُطَ بَغْتَةً مَيْتًا. فَإِذِ ٱنْتَظَرُوا كَثِيرًا وَرَأَوْا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَعْرِضْ لَهُ شَيْءٌ مُضِرٌّ، تَغَيَّرُوا وَقَالُوا: «هُوَ إِلَهٌ!». ٦ 6
But they had the idea that they would see him becoming ill, or suddenly falling down dead; but after waiting a long time, and seeing that no damage came to him, changing their opinion, they said he was a god.
وَكَانَ فِي مَا حَوْلَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ضِيَاعٌ لِمُقَدَّمِ ٱلْجَزِيرَةِ ٱلَّذِي ٱسْمُهُ بُوبْلِيُوسُ. فَهَذَا قَبِلَنَا وَأَضَافَنَا بِمُلَاطَفَةٍ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ. ٧ 7
Now near that place there was some land, the property of the chief man of the island, who was named Publius; who very kindly took us into his house as his guests for three days.
فَحَدَثَ أَنَّ أَبَا بُوبْلِيُوسَ كَانَ مُضْطَجِعًا مُعْتَرًى بِحُمَّى وَسَحْجٍ. فَدَخَلَ إِلَيْهِ بُولُسُ وَصَلَّى، وَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ فَشَفَاهُ. ٨ 8
And the father of Publius was ill, with a disease of the stomach; to whom Paul went, and put his hands on him, with prayer, and made him well.
فَلَمَّا صَارَ هَذَا، كَانَ ٱلْبَاقُونَ ٱلَّذِينَ بِهِمْ أَمْرَاضٌ فِي ٱلْجَزِيرَةِ يَأْتُونَ وَيُشْفَوْنَ. ٩ 9
And when this took place, all the others in the island who had diseases came and were made well.
فَأَكْرَمَنَا هَؤُلَاءِ إِكْرَامَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً. وَلَمَّا أَقْلَعْنَا زَوَّدُونَا مَا يُحْتَاجُ إِلَيْهِ. ١٠ 10
Then they gave us great honour, and, when we went away, they put into the ship whatever things we were in need of.
وَبَعْدَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَشْهُرٍ أَقْلَعْنَا فِي سَفِينَةٍ إِسْكَنْدَرِيَّةٍ مَوْسُومَةٍ بِعَلَامَةِ ٱلْجَوْزَاءِ، كَانَتْ قَدْ شَتَتْ فِي ٱلْجَزِيرَةِ. ١١ 11
And after three months we went to sea in a ship of Alexandria sailing under the sign of the Dioscuri, which had been at the island for the winter.
فَنَزَلْنَا إِلَى سِرَاكُوسَا وَمَكَثْنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ. ١٢ 12
And going into the harbour at Syracuse, we were waiting there for three days.
ثُمَّ مِنْ هُنَاكَ دُرْنَا وَأَقْبَلْنَا إِلَى رِيغِيُونَ. وَبَعْدَ يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ حَدَثَتْ رِيحٌ جَنُوبٌ، فَجِئْنَا فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّانِي إِلَى بُوطِيُولِي، ١٣ 13
And from there, going about in a curve, we came to Rhegium: and after one day a south wind came up and on the day after we came to Puteoli:
حَيْثُ وَجَدْنَا إِخْوَةً فَطَلَبُوا إِلَيْنَا أَنْ نَمْكُثَ عِنْدَهُمْ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ. وَهَكَذَا أَتَيْنَا إِلَى رُومِيَةَ. ١٤ 14
Where we came across some of the brothers, who kept us with them for seven days; and so we came to Rome.
وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ لَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْإِخْوَةُ بِخَبَرِنَا، خَرَجُوا لِٱسْتِقْبَالِنَا إِلَى فُورُنِ أَبِّيُوسَ وَٱلثَّلَاثَةِ ٱلْحَوَانِيتِ. فَلَمَّا رَآهُمْ بُولُسُ شَكَرَ ٱللهَ وَتَشَجَّعَ. ١٥ 15
And the brothers, when they had news of us, came out from town as far as Appii Forum and the Three Taverns to have a meeting with us: and Paul, seeing them, gave praise to God and took heart.
وَلَمَّا أَتَيْنَا إِلَى رُومِيَةَ سَلَّمَ قَائِدُ ٱلْمِئَةِ ٱلْأَسْرَى إِلَى رَئِيسِ ٱلْمُعَسْكَرِ، وَأَمَّا بُولُسُ فَأُذِنَ لَهُ أَنْ يُقِيمَ وَحْدَهُ مَعَ ٱلْعَسْكَرِيِّ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَحْرُسُهُ. ١٦ 16
And when we came into Rome, they let Paul have a house for himself and the armed man who kept watch over him.
وَبَعْدَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ ٱسْتَدْعَى بُولُسُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا وُجُوهَ ٱلْيَهُودِ. فَلَمَّا ٱجْتَمَعُوا قَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، مَعَ أَنِّي لَمْ أَفْعَلْ شَيْئًا ضِدَّ ٱلشَّعْبِ أَوْ عَوَائِدِ ٱلْآبَاءِ، أُسْلِمْتُ مُقَيَّدًا مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى أَيْدِي ٱلرُّومَانِيِّينَ، ١٧ 17
Then after three days he sent for the chief men of the Jews: and when they had come together, he said to them, My brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the ways of our fathers, I was given, a prisoner from Jerusalem, into the hands of the Romans.
ٱلَّذِينَ لَمَّا فَحَصُوا كَانُوا يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يُطْلِقُونِي، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ تَكُنْ فِيَّ عِلَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ لِلْمَوْتِ. ١٨ 18
Who, when they had put questions to me, were ready to let me go free, because there was no cause of death in me.
وَلَكِنْ لَمَّا قَاوَمَ ٱلْيَهُودُ، ٱضْطُرِرْتُ أَنْ أَرْفَعَ دَعْوَايَ إِلَى قَيْصَرَ، لَيْسَ كَأَنَّ لِي شَيْئًا لِأَشْتَكِيَ بِهِ عَلَى أُمَّتِي. ١٩ 19
But when the Jews made protest against it, I had to put my cause into Caesar's hands; not because I have anything to say against my nation.
فَلِهَذَا ٱلسَّبَبِ طَلَبْتُكُمْ لِأَرَاكُمْ وَأُكَلِّمَكُمْ، لِأَنِّي مِنْ أَجْلِ رَجَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ مُوثَقٌ بِهَذِهِ ٱلسِّلْسِلَةِ». ٢٠ 20
But for this reason I sent for you, to see and have talk with you: for because of the hope of Israel I am in these chains.
فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «نَحْنُ لَمْ نَقْبَلْ كِتَابَاتٍ فِيكَ مِنَ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ، وَلَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ جَاءَ فَأَخْبَرَنَا أَوْ تَكَلَّمَ عَنْكَ بِشَيْءٍ رَدِيٍّ. ٢١ 21
And they said to him, We have not had letters from Judaea about you, and no one of the brothers has come to us here to give an account or say any evil about you.
وَلَكِنَّنَا نَسْتَحْسِنُ أَنْ نَسْمَعَ مِنْكَ مَاذَا تَرَى، لِأَنَّهُ مَعْلُومٌ عِنْدَنَا مِنْ جِهَةِ هَذَا ٱلْمَذْهَبِ أَنَّهُ يُقَاوَمُ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ». ٢٢ 22
But we have a desire to give hearing to your opinion: for as to this form of religion, we have knowledge that in all places it is attacked.
فَعَيَّنُوا لَهُ يَوْمًا، فَجَاءَ إِلَيْهِ كَثِيرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْمَنْزِلِ، فَطَفِقَ يَشْرَحُ لَهُمْ شَاهِدًا بِمَلَكُوتِ ٱللهِ، وَمُقْنِعًا إِيَّاهُمْ مِنْ نَامُوسِ مُوسَى وَٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ بِأَمْرِ يَسُوعَ، مِنَ ٱلصَّبَاحِ إِلَى ٱلْمَسَاءِ. ٢٣ 23
And when a day had been fixed, they came to his house in great numbers; and he gave them teaching, giving witness to the kingdom of God, and having discussions with them about Jesus, from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning till evening.
فَٱقْتَنَعَ بَعْضُهُمْ بِمَا قِيلَ، وَبَعْضُهُمْ لَمْ يُؤْمِنُوا. ٢٤ 24
And some were in agreement with what he said, but some had doubts.
فَٱنْصَرَفُوا وَهُمْ غَيْرُ مُتَّفِقِينَ بَعْضُهُمْ مَعَ بَعْضٍ، لَمَّا قَالَ بُولُسُ كَلِمَةً وَاحِدَةً: «إِنَّهُ حَسَنًا كَلَّمَ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ آبَاءَنَا بِإِشَعْيَاءَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ ٢٥ 25
And they went away, for there was a division among them after Paul had said this one thing: Well did the Holy Spirit say by the prophet Isaiah to your fathers,
قَائِلًا: ٱذْهَبْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ وَقُلْ: سَتَسْمَعُونَ سَمْعًا وَلَا تَفْهَمُونَ، وَسَتَنْظُرُونَ نَظَرًا وَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ. ٢٦ 26
Go to this people and say, Though you give ear, you will not get knowledge; and seeing, you will see, but the sense will not be clear to you:
لِأَنَّ قَلْبَ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ قَدْ غَلُظَ، وَبِآذَانِهِمْ سَمِعُوا ثَقِيلًا، وَأَعْيُنُهُمْ أَغْمَضُوهَا. لِئَلَّا يُبْصِرُوا بِأَعْيُنِهِمْ وَيَسْمَعُوا بِآذَانِهِمْ وَيَفْهَمُوا بِقُلُوبِهِمْ وَيَرْجِعُوا، فَأَشْفِيَهُمْ. ٢٧ 27
For the heart of this people has become fat and their ears are slow in hearing and their eyes are shut; for fear that they might see with their eyes and give hearing with their ears and become wise in their hearts and be turned again to me, so that I might make them well.
فَلْيَكُنْ مَعْلُومًا عِنْدَكُمْ أَنَّ خَلَاصَ ٱللهِ قَدْ أُرْسِلَ إِلَى ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَهُمْ سَيَسْمَعُونَ!». ٢٨ 28
Be certain, then, that the salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will give hearing.
وَلَمَّا قَالَ هَذَا مَضَى ٱلْيَهُودُ وَلَهُمْ مُبَاحَثَةٌ كَثِيرَةٌ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ. ٢٩ 29
وَأَقَامَ بُولُسُ سَنَتَيْنِ كَامِلَتَينِ فِي بَيْتٍ ٱسْتَأْجَرَهُ لِنَفْسِهِ. وَكَانَ يَقْبَلُ جَمِيعَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْخُلُونَ إِلَيْهِ، ٣٠ 30
And for the space of two years, Paul was living in the house of which he had the use, and had talk with all those who went in to see him,
كَارِزًا بِمَلَكُوتِ ٱللهِ، وَمُعَلِّمًا بِأَمْرِ ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ بِكُلِّ مُجَاهَرَةٍ، بِلَا مَانِعٍ. ٣١ 31
Preaching the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ without fear, and no orders were given that he was not to do so.
