< مَتَّى 11 >

وَلَمَّا أَكْمَلَ يَسُوعُ أَمْرَهُ لِتَلَامِيذِهِ ٱلِٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ، ٱنْصَرَفَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ لِيُعَلِّمَ وَيَكْرِزَ فِي مُدُنِهِمْ. ١ 1
When Yeshua [Salvation] had finished directing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.
أَمَّا يُوحَنَّا فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ فِي ٱلسِّجْنِ بِأَعْمَالِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، أَرْسَلَ ٱثْنَيْنِ مِنْ تَلَامِيذِهِ، ٢ 2
Now when John [Yah is gracious] heard in the prison the works of Messiah [Anointed one], he sent two of his disciples
وَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَنْتَ هُوَ ٱلْآتِي أَمْ نَنْتَظِرُ آخَرَ؟». ٣ 3
and said to him, “Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?”
فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «ٱذْهَبَا وَأَخْبِرَا يُوحَنَّا بِمَا تَسْمَعَانِ وَتَنْظُرَانِ: ٤ 4
Yeshua [Salvation] answered them, “Go and tell John [Yah is gracious] the things which you hear and see:
اَلْعُمْيُ يُبْصِرُونَ، وَٱلْعُرْجُ يَمْشُونَ، وَٱلْبُرْصُ يُطَهَّرُونَ، وَٱلصُّمُّ يَسْمَعُونَ، وَٱلْمَوْتَى يَقُومُونَ، وَٱلْمَسَاكِينُ يُبَشَّرُونَ. ٥ 5
the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the people afflicted with tzara'at ·leprosy· are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are being raised, and the poor have good news preached to them.
وَطُوبَى لِمَنْ لَا يَعْثُرُ فِيَّ». ٦ 6
Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
وَبَيْنَمَا ذَهَبَ هَذَانِ ٱبْتَدَأَ يَسُوعُ يَقُولُ لِلْجُمُوعِ عَنْ يُوحَنَّا: «مَاذَا خَرَجْتُمْ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ لِتَنْظُرُوا؟ أَقَصَبَةً تُحَرِّكُهَا ٱلرِّيحُ؟ ٧ 7
As these went their way, Yeshua [Salvation] began to say to the multitudes concerning John [Yah is gracious], “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
لَكِنْ مَاذَا خَرَجْتُمْ لِتَنْظُرُوا؟ أَإِنْسَانًا لَابِسًا ثِيَابًا نَاعِمَةً؟ هُوَذَا ٱلَّذِينَ يَلْبَسُونَ ٱلثِّيَابَ ٱلنَّاعِمَةَ هُمْ فِي بُيُوتِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ. ٨ 8
But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.
لَكِنْ مَاذَا خَرَجْتُمْ لِتَنْظُرُوا؟ أَنَبِيًّا؟ نَعَمْ، أَقُولُ لَكُمْ، وَأَفْضَلَ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ. ٩ 9
But why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
فَإِنَّ هَذَا هُوَ ٱلَّذِي كُتِبَ عَنْهُ: هَا أَنَا أُرْسِلُ أَمَامَ وَجْهِكَ مَلَاكِي ٱلَّذِي يُهَيِّئُ طَرِيقَكَ قُدَّامَكَ. ١٠ 10
For this is he, of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
اَلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لَمْ يَقُمْ بَيْنَ ٱلْمَوْلُودِينَ مِنَ ٱلنِّسَاءِ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ يُوحَنَّا ٱلْمَعْمَدَانِ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْأَصْغَرَ فِي مَلَكُوتِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ أَعْظَمُ مِنْهُ. ١١ 11
Most certainly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John [Yah is gracious] the Immerser; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven (God) is greater than he.
وَمِنْ أَيَّامِ يُوحَنَّا ٱلْمَعْمَدَانِ إِلَى ٱلْآنَ مَلَكُوتُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ يُغْصَبُ، وَٱلْغَاصِبُونَ يَخْتَطِفُونَهُ. ١٢ 12
From the days of John [Yah is gracious] the Immerser until now, the Kingdom of Heaven (God) suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
لِأَنَّ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَٱلنَّامُوسَ إِلَى يُوحَنَّا تَنَبَّأُوا. ١٣ 13
For all the prophets and the Torah ·Teaching· prophesied until John [Yah is gracious].
وَإِنْ أَرَدْتُمْ أَنْ تَقْبَلُوا، فَهَذَا هُوَ إِيلِيَّا ٱلْمُزْمِعُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ. ١٤ 14
If you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah [My God Yah] whose coming was predicted.
مَنْ لَهُ أُذُنَانِ لِلسَّمْعِ فَلْيَسْمَعْ. ١٥ 15
He who has ears to hear, let him sh'ma ·hear obey·.
«وَبِمَنْ أُشَبِّهُ هَذَا ٱلْجِيلَ؟ يُشْبِهُ أَوْلَادًا جَالِسِينَ فِي ٱلْأَسْوَاقِ يُنَادُونَ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِمْ ١٦ 16
“But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
وَيَقُولُونَ: زَمَّرْنَا لَكُمْ فَلَمْ تَرْقُصُوا! نُحْنَا لَكُمْ فَلَمْ تَلْطِمُوا! ١٧ 17
and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn’t lament.’
لِأَنَّهُ جَاءَ يُوحَنَّا لَا يَأْكُلُ وَلَا يَشْرَبُ، فَيَقُولُونَ: فِيهِ شَيْطَانٌ. ١٨ 18
For John [Yah is gracious] came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
جَاءَ ٱبْنُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ يَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ، فَيَقُولُونَ: هُوَذَا إِنْسَانٌ أَكُولٌ وَشِرِّيبُ خَمْرٍ، مُحِبٌّ لِلْعَشَّارِينَ وَٱلْخُطَاةِ. وَٱلْحِكْمَةُ تَبَرَّرَتْ مِنْ بَنِيهَا». ١٩ 19
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is justified by her children.”
حِينَئِذٍ ٱبْتَدَأَ يُوَبِّخُ ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلَّتِي صُنِعَتْ فِيهَا أَكْثَرُ قُوَّاتِهِ لِأَنَّهَا لَمْ تَتُبْ: ٢٠ 20
Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they didn’t teshuvah ·turn repent·.
«وَيْلٌ لَكِ يا كُورَزِينُ! وَيْلٌ لَكِ يا بَيْتَ صَيْدَا! لِأَنَّهُ لَوْ صُنِعَتْ فِي صُورَ وَصَيْدَاءَ ٱلْقُوَّاتُ ٱلْمَصْنُوعَةُ فِيكُمَا، لَتَابَتَا قَدِيمًا فِي ٱلْمُسُوحِ وَٱلرَّمَادِ. ٢١ 21
“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have make teshuvah ·complete repentance· long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
وَلَكِنْ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ صُورَ وَصَيْدَاءَ تَكُونُ لَهُمَا حَالَةٌ أَكْثَرُ ٱحْتِمَالًا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ مِمَّا لَكُمَا. ٢٢ 22
But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
وَأَنْتِ ياكَفْرَنَاحُومَ ٱلْمُرْتَفِعَةَ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ! سَتُهْبَطِينَ إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ. لِأَنَّهُ لَوْ صُنِعَتْ فِي سَدُومَ ٱلْقُوَّاتُ ٱلْمَصْنُوعَةُ فِيكِ لَبَقِيَتْ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ. (Hadēs g86) ٢٣ 23
You, Capernaum [Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion], will you be exalted to heaven? No, you will go down to Hades / Sh'ol ·Place of the dead·. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom [Burning] which were done in you, it would have remained until today. (Hadēs g86)
وَلَكِنْ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ أَرْضَ سَدُومَ تَكُونُ لَهَا حَالَةٌ أَكْثَرُ ٱحْتِمَالًا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ مِمَّا لَكِ». ٢٤ 24
But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom [Burning], on the day of judgment, than for you.”
فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ أَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ: «أَحْمَدُكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْآبُ رَبُّ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّكَ أَخْفَيْتَ هَذِهِ عَنِ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ وَٱلْفُهَمَاءِ وَأَعْلَنْتَهَا لِلْأَطْفَالِ. ٢٥ 25
At that time, Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “I thank you, Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants.
نَعَمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْآبُ، لِأَنْ هَكَذَا صَارَتِ ٱلْمَسَرَّةُ أَمَامَكَ. ٢٦ 26
Yes, Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.
كُلُّ شَيْءٍ قَدْ دُفِعَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَبِي، وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَعْرِفُ ٱلِٱبْنَ إِلَّا ٱلْآبُ، وَلَا أَحَدٌ يَعْرِفُ ٱلْآبَ إِلَّا ٱلِٱبْنُ وَمَنْ أَرَادَ ٱلِٱبْنُ أَنْ يُعْلِنَ لَهُ. ٢٧ 27
All things have been delivered to me by 'Avi ·my Father·. No one knows the Son, except the Abba ·Father·; neither does anyone know the Abba ·Father·, except the Son, and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.
تَعَالَوْا إِلَيَّ يا جَمِيعَ ٱلْمُتْعَبِينَ وَٱلثَّقِيلِي ٱلْأَحْمَالِ، وَأَنَا أُرِيحُكُمْ. ٢٨ 28
“Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.
اِحْمِلُوا نِيرِي عَلَيْكُمْ وَتَعَلَّمُوا مِنِّي، لِأَنِّي وَدِيعٌ وَمُتَوَاضِعُ ٱلْقَلْبِ، فَتَجِدُوا رَاحَةً لِنُفُوسِكُمْ. ٢٩ 29
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
لِأَنَّ نِيرِي هَيِّنٌ وَحِمْلِي خَفِيفٌ». ٣٠ 30
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
