< غَلاطِيَّة 1 >

بُولُسُ، رَسُولٌ لَا مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَا بِإِنْسَانٍ، بَلْ بِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ وَٱللهِ ٱلْآبِ ٱلَّذِي أَقَامَهُ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ، ١ 1
Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead—
وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعِي، إِلَى كَنَائِسِ غَلَاطِيَّةَ: ٢ 2
and all the brothers with me, To the churches of Galatia:
نِعْمَةٌ لَكُمْ وَسَلَامٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ ٱلْآبِ، وَمِنْ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، ٣ 3
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,
ٱلَّذِي بَذَلَ نَفْسَهُ لِأَجْلِ خَطَايَانَا، لِيُنْقِذَنَا مِنَ ٱلْعَالَمِ ٱلْحَاضِرِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ حَسَبَ إِرَادَةِ ٱللهِ وَأَبِينَا، (aiōn g165) ٤ 4
who gave Himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, (aiōn g165)
ٱلَّذِي لَهُ ٱلْمَجْدُ إِلَى أَبَدِ ٱلْآبِدِينَ. آمِينَ. (aiōn g165) ٥ 5
to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
إِنِّي أَتَعَجَّبُ أَنَّكُمْ تَنْتَقِلُونَ هَكَذَا سَرِيعًا عَنِ ٱلَّذِي دَعَاكُمْ بِنِعْمَةِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ إِلَى إِنْجِيلٍ آخَرَ! ٦ 6
I am amazed how quickly you are deserting the One who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—
لَيْسَ هُوَ آخَرَ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ يُوجَدُ قَوْمٌ يُزْعِجُونَكُمْ وَيُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يُحَوِّلُوا إِنْجِيلَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ. ٧ 7
which is not even a gospel. Evidently some people are troubling you and trying to distort the gospel of Christ.
وَلَكِنْ إِنْ بَشَّرْنَاكُمْ نَحْنُ أَوْ مَلَاكٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ بِغَيْرِ مَا بَشَّرْنَاكُمْ، فَلْيَكُنْ «أَنَاثِيمَا»! ٨ 8
But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be under a curse!
كَمَا سَبَقْنَا فَقُلْنَا أَقُولُ ٱلْآنَ أَيْضًا: إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يُبَشِّرُكُمْ بِغَيْرِ مَا قَبِلْتُمْ، فَلْيَكُنْ «أَنَاثِيمَا»! ٩ 9
As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be under a curse!
أَفَأَسْتَعْطِفُ ٱلْآنَ ٱلنَّاسَ أَمِ ٱللهَ؟ أَمْ أَطْلُبُ أَنْ أُرْضِيَ ٱلنَّاسَ؟ فَلَوْ كُنْتُ بَعْدُ أُرْضِي ٱلنَّاسَ، لَمْ أَكُنْ عَبْدًا لِلْمَسِيحِ. ١٠ 10
Am I now seeking the approval of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.
وَأُعَرِّفُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ ٱلْإِنْجِيلَ ٱلَّذِي بَشَّرْتُ بِهِ، أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِحَسَبِ إِنْسَانٍ. ١١ 11
For I certify to you, brothers, that the gospel I preached was not devised by man.
لِأَنِّي لَمْ أَقْبَلْهُ مِنْ عِنْدِ إِنْسَانٍ وَلَا عُلِّمْتُهُ. بَلْ بِإِعْلَانِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ. ١٢ 12
I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.
فَإِنَّكُمْ سَمِعْتُمْ بِسِيرَتِي قَبْلًا فِي ٱلدِّيَانَةِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ، أَنِّي كُنْتُ أَضْطَهِدُ كَنِيسَةَ ٱللهِ بِإِفْرَاطٍ وَأُتْلِفُهَا. ١٣ 13
For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how severely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it.
وَكُنْتُ أَتَقَدَّمُ فِي ٱلدِّيَانَةِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ عَلَى كَثِيرِينَ مِنْ أَتْرَابِي فِي جِنْسِي، إِذْ كُنْتُ أَوْفَرَ غَيْرَةً فِي تَقْلِيدَاتِ آبَائِي. ١٤ 14
I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries and was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
وَلَكِنْ لَمَّا سَرَّ ٱللهَ ٱلَّذِي أَفْرَزَنِي مِنْ بَطْنِ أُمِّي، وَدَعَانِي بِنِعْمَتِهِ، ١٥ 15
But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by His grace, was pleased
أَنْ يُعْلِنَ ٱبْنَهُ فِيَّ لِأُبَشِّرَ بِهِ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، لِلْوَقْتِ لَمْ أَسْتَشِرْ لَحْمًا وَدَمًا، ١٦ 16
to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not rush to consult with flesh and blood,
وَلَا صَعِدْتُ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، إِلَى ٱلرُّسُلِ ٱلَّذِينَ قَبْلِي، بَلِ ٱنْطَلَقْتُ إِلَى ٱلْعَرَبِيَّةِ، ثُمَّ رَجَعْتُ أَيْضًا إِلَى دِمَشْقَ. ١٧ 17
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles who came before me, but I went into Arabia and later returned to Damascus.
ثُمَّ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثِ سِنِينَ صَعِدْتُ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِأَتَعَرَّفَ بِبُطْرُسَ، فَمَكَثْتُ عِنْدَهُ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ يَوْمًا. ١٨ 18
Only after three years did I go up to Jerusalem to confer with Cephas, and I stayed with him fifteen days.
وَلَكِنَّنِي لَمْ أَرَ غَيْرَهُ مِنَ ٱلرُّسُلِ إِلَّا يَعْقُوبَ أَخَا ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٩ 19
But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord’s brother.
وَٱلَّذِي أَكْتُبُ بِهِ إِلَيْكُمْ هُوَذَا قُدَّامَ ٱللهِ أَنِّي لَسْتُ أَكْذِبُ فِيهِ. ٢٠ 20
I assure you before God that what I am writing to you is no lie.
وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ جِئْتُ إِلَى أَقَالِيمِ سُورِيَّةَ وَكِيلِيكِيَّةَ. ٢١ 21
Later I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
وَلَكِنَّنِي كُنْتُ غَيْرَ مَعْرُوفٍ بِٱلْوَجْهِ عِنْدَ كَنَائِسِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ. ٢٢ 22
I was personally unknown, however, to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يَسْمَعُونَ: «أَنَّ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَضْطَهِدُنَا قَبْلًا، يُبَشِّرُ ٱلْآنَ بِٱلْإِيمَانِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ قَبْلًا يُتْلِفُهُ». ٢٣ 23
They only heard the account: “The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”
فَكَانُوا يُمَجِّدُونَ ٱللهَ فِيَّ. ٢٤ 24
And they glorified God because of me.
