لُوقا 1
| إِذْ كَانَ كَثِيرُونَ قَدْ أَخَذُوا بِتَأْلِيفِ قِصَّةٍ فِي ٱلْأُمُورِ ٱلْمُتَيَقَّنَةِ عِنْدَنَا، | ١ 1 |
Since many have undertaken to set in order a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled among us,
| كَمَا سَلَّمَهَا إِلَيْنَا ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مُنْذُ ٱلْبَدْءِ مُعَايِنِينَ وَخُدَّامًا لِلْكَلِمَةِ، | ٢ 2 |
even as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and servants of the word delivered them to us,
| رَأَيْتُ أَنَا أَيْضًا إِذْ قَدْ تَتَبَّعْتُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ مِنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِ بِتَدْقِيقٍ، أَنْ أَكْتُبَ عَلَى ٱلتَّوَالِي إِلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْعَزِيزُ ثَاوُفِيلُسُ، | ٣ 3 |
it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all things accurately from the first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus;
| لِتَعْرِفَ صِحَّةَ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي عُلِّمْتَ بِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
that you might know the certainty concerning the things in which you were instructed.
| كَانَ فِي أَيَّامِ هِيرُودُسَ مَلِكِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ كَاهِنٌ ٱسْمُهُ زَكَرِيَّا مِنْ فِرْقَةِ أَبِيَّا، وَٱمْرَأَتُهُ مِنْ بَنَاتِ هارُونَ وَٱسْمُهَا أَلِيصَابَاتُ. | ٥ 5 |
There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah. He had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.
| وَكَانَا كِلَاهُمَا بَارَّيْنِ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ، سَالِكَيْنِ فِي جَمِيعِ وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ وَأَحْكَامِهِ بِلَا لَوْمٍ. | ٦ 6 |
They were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord.
| وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمَا وَلَدٌ، إِذْ كَانَتْ أَلِيصَابَاتُ عَاقِرًا. وَكَانَا كِلَاهُمَا مُتَقَدِّمَيْنِ فِي أَيَّامِهِمَا. | ٧ 7 |
But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they both were well advanced in years.
| فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَكْهَنُ فِي نَوْبَةِ فِرْقَتِهِ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ، | ٨ 8 |
Now it happened, while he was performing the priest's office before God in the order of his division,
| حَسَبَ عَادَةِ ٱلْكَهَنُوتِ، أَصَابَتْهُ ٱلْقُرْعَةُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ إِلَى هَيْكَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَيُبَخِّرَ. | ٩ 9 |
according to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to enter into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
| وَكَانَ كُلُّ جُمْهُورِ ٱلشَّعْبِ يُصَلُّونَ خَارِجًا وَقْتَ ٱلْبَخُورِ. | ١٠ 10 |
And the whole crowd of people were praying outside at the hour of incense.
| فَظَهَرَ لَهُ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَاقِفًا عَنْ يَمِينِ مَذْبَحِ ٱلْبَخُورِ. | ١١ 11 |
An angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
| فَلَمَّا رَآهُ زَكَرِيَّا ٱضْطَرَبَ وَوَقَعَ عَلَيْهِ خَوْفٌ. | ١٢ 12 |
Zechariah was troubled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلْمَلَاكُ: «لَا تَخَفْ يَا زَكَرِيَّا، لِأَنَّ طِلْبَتَكَ قَدْ سُمِعَتْ، وَٱمْرَأَتُكَ أَلِيصَابَاتُ سَتَلِدُ لَكَ ٱبْنًا وَتُسَمِّيهِ يُوحَنَّا. | ١٣ 13 |
But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your request has been heard, and your wife, Elizabeth, will bear you a son, and you are to name him John.
| وَيَكُونُ لَكَ فَرَحٌ وَٱبْتِهَاجٌ، وَكَثِيرُونَ سَيَفْرَحُونَ بِوِلَادَتِهِ، | ١٤ 14 |
You will have joy and gladness; and many will rejoice at his birth.
| لِأَنَّهُ يَكُونُ عَظِيمًا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَخَمْرًا وَمُسْكِرًا لَا يَشْرَبُ، وَمِنْ بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ يَمْتَلِئُ مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ. | ١٥ 15 |
For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and he must never drink wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.
| وَيَرُدُّ كَثِيرِينَ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ. | ١٦ 16 |
He will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord, their God.
| وَيَتَقَدَّمُ أَمَامَهُ بِرُوحِ إِيلِيَّا وَقُوَّتِهِ، لِيَرُدَّ قُلُوبَ ٱلْآبَاءِ إِلَى ٱلْأَبْنَاءِ، وَٱلْعُصَاةَ إِلَى فِكْرِ ٱلْأَبْرَارِ، لِكَيْ يُهَيِّئَ لِلرَّبِّ شَعْبًا مُسْتَعِدًّا». | ١٧ 17 |
He will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, 'to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,' and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord."
| فَقَالَ زَكَرِيَّا لِلْمَلَاكِ: «كَيْفَ أَعْلَمُ هَذَا، لِأَنِّي أَنَا شَيْخٌ وَٱمْرَأَتِي مُتَقَدِّمَةٌ فِي أَيَّامِهَا؟». | ١٨ 18 |
Zechariah said to the angel, "How can I be sure of this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years."
| فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَنَا جِبْرَائِيلُ ٱلْوَاقِفُ قُدَّامَ ٱللهِ، وَأُرْسِلْتُ لِأُكَلِّمَكَ وَأُبَشِّرَكَ بِهَذَا. | ١٩ 19 |
The angel answered him, "I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God. I was sent to speak to you, and to bring you this good news.
| وَهَا أَنْتَ تَكُونُ صَامِتًا وَلَا تَقْدِرُ أَنْ تَتَكَلَّمَ، إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلَّذِي يَكُونُ فِيهِ هَذَا، لِأَنَّكَ لَمْ تُصَدِّقْ كَلَامِي ٱلَّذِي سَيَتِمُّ فِي وَقْتِهِ». | ٢٠ 20 |
And look, you will be silent and not able to speak, until the day that these things will happen, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their proper time."
| وَكَانَ ٱلشَّعْبُ مُنْتَظِرِينَ زَكَرِيَّا وَمُتَعّجِّبِينَ مِنْ إِبْطَائِهِ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ. | ٢١ 21 |
The people were waiting for Zechariah, and they were wondering why he was delayed in the temple.
| فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يُكَلِّمَهُمْ، فَفَهِمُوا أَنَّهُ قَدْ رَأَى رُؤْيَا فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ. فَكَانَ يُومِئُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَبَقِيَ صَامِتًا. | ٢٢ 22 |
When he came out, he could not speak to them, and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple. He continued making signs to them, and remained mute.
| وَلَمَّا كَمِلَتْ أَيَّامُ خِدْمَتِهِ مَضَى إِلَى بَيْتِهِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
It happened, when the days of his service were fulfilled, he departed to his house.
| وَبَعْدَ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ حَبِلَتْ أَلِيصَابَاتُ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ، وَأَخْفَتْ نَفْسَهَا خَمْسَةَ أَشْهُرٍ قَائِلَةً: | ٢٤ 24 |
After these days Elizabeth, his wife, conceived, and she hid herself five months, saying,
| «هَكَذَا قَدْ فَعَلَ بِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ، لِيَنْزِعَ عَارِي بَيْنَ ٱلنَّاسِ». | ٢٥ 25 |
"Thus has the Lord done to me in the days in which he looked at me, to take away my disgrace among people."
| وَفِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلسَّادِسِ أُرْسِلَ جِبْرَائِيلُ ٱلْمَلَاكُ مِنَ ٱللهِ إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْجَلِيلِ ٱسْمُهَا نَاصِرَةُ، | ٢٦ 26 |
Now in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
| إِلَى عَذْرَاءَ مَخْطُوبَةٍ لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ ٱسْمُهُ يُوسُفُ. وَٱسْمُ ٱلْعَذْرَاءِ مَرْيَمُ. | ٢٧ 27 |
to a virgin pledged to be married to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary.
| فَدَخَلَ إِلَيْهَا ٱلْمَلَاكُ وَقَالَ: «سَلَامٌ لَكِ أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْمُنْعَمُ عَلَيْهَا! اَلرَّبُّ مَعَكِ. مُبَارَكَةٌ أَنْتِ فِي ٱلنِّسَاءِ». | ٢٨ 28 |
Having come in, the angel said to her, "Greetings, favored one. The Lord is with you."
| فَلَمَّا رَأَتْهُ ٱضْطَرَبَتْ مِنْ كَلَامِهِ، وَفَكَّرَتْ: «مَا عَسَى أَنْ تَكُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلتَّحِيَّةُ!». | ٢٩ 29 |
But when she saw him, she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered what kind of greeting this might be.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا ٱلْمَلَاكُ: «لَا تَخَافِي يَا مَرْيَمُ، لِأَنَّكِ قَدْ وَجَدْتِ نِعْمَةً عِنْدَ ٱللهِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
The angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
| وَهَا أَنْتِ سَتَحْبَلِينَ وَتَلِدِينَ ٱبْنًا وَتُسَمِّينَهُ يَسُوعَ. | ٣١ 31 |
And look, you will conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and will call his name 'Jesus.'
| هَذَا يَكُونُ عَظِيمًا، وَٱبْنَ ٱلْعَلِيِّ يُدْعَى، وَيُعْطِيهِ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْإِلَهُ كُرْسِيَّ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ، | ٣٢ 32 |
He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father, David,
| وَيَمْلِكُ عَلَى بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَلَا يَكُونُ لِمُلْكِهِ نِهَايَةٌ». (aiōn g165) | ٣٣ 33 |
and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever. There will be no end to his Kingdom." (aiōn g165)
| فَقَالَتْ مَرْيَمُ لِلْمَلَاكِ: «كَيْفَ يَكُونُ هَذَا وَأَنَا لَسْتُ أَعْرِفُ رَجُلًا؟». | ٣٤ 34 |
Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, seeing I am a virgin?"
| فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ وَقَالَ لَها: «اَلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ يَحِلُّ عَلَيْكِ، وَقُوَّةُ ٱلْعَلِيِّ تُظَلِّلُكِ، فَلِذَلِكَ أَيْضًا ٱلْقُدُّوسُ ٱلْمَوْلُودُ مِنْكِ يُدْعَى ٱبْنَ ٱللهِ. | ٣٥ 35 |
The angel answered her, "The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born will be called the Son of God.
| وَهُوَذَا أَلِيصَابَاتُ نَسِيبَتُكِ هِيَ أَيْضًا حُبْلَى بِٱبْنٍ فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهَا، وَهَذَا هُوَ ٱلشَّهْرُ ٱلسَّادِسُ لِتِلْكَ ٱلْمَدْعُوَّةِ عَاقِرًا، | ٣٦ 36 |
And look, Elizabeth, your relative, also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.
| لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ غَيْرَ مُمْكِنٍ لَدَى ٱللهِ». | ٣٧ 37 |
For with God nothing will be impossible."
| فَقَالَتْ مَرْيَمُ: «هُوَذَا أَنَا أَمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ. لِيَكُنْ لِي كَقَوْلِكَ». فَمَضَى مِنْ عِنْدِهَا ٱلْمَلَاكُ. | ٣٨ 38 |
And Mary said, "See, the handmaid of the Lord; be it to me according to your word." The angel departed from her.
| فَقَامَتْ مَرْيَمُ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ وَذَهَبَتْ بِسُرْعَةٍ إِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ إِلَى مَدِينَةِ يَهُوذَا، | ٣٩ 39 |
Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah,
| وَدَخَلَتْ بَيْتَ زَكَرِيَّا وَسَلَّمَتْ عَلَى أَلِيصَابَاتَ. | ٤٠ 40 |
and entered into the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ أَلِيصَابَاتُ سَلَامَ مَرْيَمَ ٱرْتَكَضَ ٱلْجَنِينُ فِي بَطْنِهَا، وَٱمْتَلَأَتْ أَلِيصَابَاتُ مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ، | ٤١ 41 |
It happened, when Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, that the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
| وَصَرَخَتْ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ وَقَالَتْ: «مُبَارَكَةٌ أَنْتِ فِي ٱلنِّسَاءِ وَمُبَارَكَةٌ هِيَ ثَمَرَةُ بَطْنِكِ! | ٤٢ 42 |
She called out with a loud voice, and said, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
| فَمِنْ أَيْنَ لِي هَذَا أَنْ تَأْتِيَ أُمُّ رَبِّي إِلَيَّ؟ | ٤٣ 43 |
Why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
| فَهُوَذَا حِينَ صَارَ صَوْتُ سَلَامِكِ فِي أُذُنَيَّ ٱرْتَكَضَ ٱلْجَنِينُ بِٱبْتِهَاجٍ فِي بَطْنِي. | ٤٤ 44 |
For look, when the voice of your greeting came into my ears, the baby leaped in my womb for joy.
| فَطُوبَى لِلَّتِي آمَنَتْ أَنْ يَتِمَّ مَا قِيلَ لَهَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ». | ٤٥ 45 |
Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of the things which have been spoken to her from the Lord."
| فَقَالَتْ مَرْيَمُ: «تُعَظِّمُ نَفْسِي ٱلرَّبَّ، | ٤٦ 46 |
Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord.
| وَتَبْتَهِجُ رُوحِي بِٱللهِ مُخَلِّصِي، | ٤٧ 47 |
And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
| لِأَنَّهُ نَظَرَ إِلَى ٱتِّضَاعِ أَمَتِهِ. فَهُوَذَا مُنْذُ ٱلْآنَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأَجْيَالِ تُطَوِّبُنِي، | ٤٨ 48 |
for he has looked at the humble state of his servant girl. For look, from now on all generations will call me blessed.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلْقَدِيرَ صَنَعَ بِي عَظَائِمَ، وَٱسْمُهُ قُدُّوسٌ، | ٤٩ 49 |
For he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name.
| وَرَحْمَتُهُ إِلَى جِيلِ ٱلْأَجْيَالِ لِلَّذِينَ يَتَّقُونَهُ. | ٥٠ 50 |
His mercy is for generations of generations on those who fear him.
| صَنَعَ قُوَّةً بِذِرَاعِهِ. شَتَّتَ ٱلْمُسْتَكْبِرِينَ بِفِكْرِ قُلُوبِهِمْ. | ٥١ 51 |
He has shown strength with his arm. He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
| أَنْزَلَ ٱلْأَعِزَّاءَ عَنِ ٱلْكَرَاسِيِّ وَرَفَعَ ٱلْمُتَّضِعِينَ. | ٥٢ 52 |
He has put down princes from their thrones. And has exalted the lowly.
| أَشْبَعَ ٱلْجِيَاعَ خَيْرَاتٍ وَصَرَفَ ٱلْأَغْنِيَاءَ فَارِغِينَ. | ٥٣ 53 |
He has filled the hungry with good things. He has sent the rich away empty.
| عَضَدَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَتَاهُ لِيَذْكُرَ رَحْمَةً، | ٥٤ 54 |
He has given help to Israel, his servant, that he might remember mercy,
| كَمَا كَلَّمَ آبَاءَنَا. لِإِبْراهِيمَ وَنَسْلِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». (aiōn g165) | ٥٥ 55 |
As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and his offspring forever." (aiōn g165)
| فَمَكَثَتْ مَرْيَمُ عِنْدَهَا نَحْوَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَشْهُرٍ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَتْ إِلَى بَيْتِهَا. | ٥٦ 56 |
Mary stayed with her about three months, and then returned to her house.
| وَأَمَّا أَلِيصَابَاتُ فَتَمَّ زَمَانُهَا لِتَلِدَ، فَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا. | ٥٧ 57 |
Now the time that Elizabeth should give birth was fulfilled, and she brought forth a son.
| وَسَمِعَ جِيرَانُهَا وَأَقْرِبَاؤُهَا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ عَظَّمَ رَحْمَتَهُ لَهَا، فَفَرِحُوا مَعَهَا. | ٥٨ 58 |
Her neighbors and her relatives heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy towards her, and they rejoiced with her.
| وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّامِنِ جَاءُوا لِيَخْتِنُوا ٱلصَّبِيَّ، وَسَمَّوْهُ بِٱسْمِ أَبِيهِ زَكَرِيَّا. | ٥٩ 59 |
It happened on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child; and they would have called him Zechariah, after the name of the father.
| فَأَجَابَتْ أمُّهُ وَقَالَتْ: «لَا! بَلْ يُسَمَّى يُوحَنَّا». | ٦٠ 60 |
His mother answered, "Not so; but he will be called John."
| فَقَالُوا لَهَا: «لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ فِي عَشِيرَتِكِ تَسَمَّى بِهَذَا ٱلِٱسْمِ». | ٦١ 61 |
They said to her, "There is no one among your relatives who is called by this name."
| ثُمَّ أَوْمَأُوا إِلَى أَبِيهِ، مَاذَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُسَمَّى. | ٦٢ 62 |
They made signs to his father, what he would have him called.
| فَطَلَبَ لَوْحًا وَكَتَبَ قَائِلًا: «ٱسْمُهُ يُوحَنَّا». فَتَعَجَّبَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ. | ٦٣ 63 |
And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, "His name is John." And they were all amazed.
| وَفِي ٱلْحَالِ ٱنْفَتَحَ فَمُهُ وَلِسَانُهُ وَتَكَلَّمَ وَبَارَكَ ٱللهَ. | ٦٤ 64 |
His mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue freed, and he spoke, blessing God.
| فَوَقَعَ خَوْفٌ عَلَى كُلِّ جِيرَانِهِمْ. وَتُحُدِّثَ بِهَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ جَمِيعِهَا فِي كُلِّ جِبَالِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ، | ٦٥ 65 |
Fear came on all who lived around them, and all these sayings were talked about throughout all the hill country of Judea.
| فَأَوْدَعَهَا جَمِيعُ ٱلسَّامِعِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ قَائِلِينَ: «أَتَرَى مَاذَا يَكُونُ هَذَا ٱلصَّبِيُّ؟». وَكَانَتْ يَدُ ٱلرَّبِّ مَعَهُ. | ٦٦ 66 |
All who heard them laid them up in their heart, saying, "What then will this child be?" The hand of the Lord was with him.
| وَٱمْتَلَأَ زَكَرِيَّا أَبُوهُ مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ، وَتَنَبَّأَ قَائِلًا: | ٦٧ 67 |
His father, Zechariah, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,
| «مُبَارَكٌ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِأَنَّهُ ٱفْتَقَدَ وَصَنَعَ فِدَاءً لِشَعْبِهِ، | ٦٨ 68 |
"Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, for he has visited and worked redemption for his people;
| وَأَقَامَ لَنَا قَرْنَ خَلَاصٍ فِي بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ فَتَاهُ. | ٦٩ 69 |
and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David
| كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ بِفَمِ أَنْبِيَائِهِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ مُنْذُ ٱلدَّهْرِ، (aiōn g165) | ٧٠ 70 |
(as he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets who have been from of old), (aiōn g165)
| خَلَاصٍ مِنْ أَعْدَائِنَا وَمِنْ أَيْدِي جَمِيعِ مُبْغِضِينَا. | ٧١ 71 |
salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all who hate us;
| لِيَصْنَعَ رَحْمَةً مَعَ آبَائِنَا وَيَذْكُرَ عَهْدَهُ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَ، | ٧٢ 72 |
to show mercy towards our fathers, to remember his holy covenant,
| ٱلْقَسَمَ ٱلَّذِي حَلَفَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ أَبِينَا: | ٧٣ 73 |
the oath which he spoke to Abraham, our father,
| أَنْ يُعْطِيَنَا إِنَّنَا بِلَا خَوْفٍ، مُنْقَذِينَ مِنْ أَيْدِي أَعْدَائِنَا، نَعْبُدُهُ | ٧٤ 74 |
to grant to us that we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, should serve him without fear,
| بِقَدَاسَةٍ وَبِرٍّ قُدَّامَهُ جَمِيعَ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِنَا. | ٧٥ 75 |
In holiness and righteousness before him all our days.
| وَأَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلصَّبِيُّ نَبِيَّ ٱلْعَلِيِّ تُدْعَى، لِأَنَّكَ تَتَقَدَّمُ أَمَامَ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِتُعِدَّ طُرُقَهُ. | ٧٦ 76 |
And you, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the Lord to make ready his ways,
| لِتُعْطِيَ شَعْبَهُ مَعْرِفَةَ ٱلْخَلَاصِ بِمَغْفِرَةِ خَطَايَاهُمْ، | ٧٧ 77 |
to give knowledge of salvation to his people by the forgiveness of their sins,
