< مَتَّى 21 >

وَلَمَّا قَرُبُوا مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَجَاءُوا إِلَى بَيْتِ فَاجِي عِنْدَ جَبَلِ ٱلزَّيْتُونِ، حِينَئِذٍ أَرْسَلَ يَسُوعُ تِلْمِيذَيْنِ ١ 1
As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two disciples,
قَائِلًا لَهُمَا: «اِذْهَبَا إِلَى ٱلْقَرْيَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَمَامَكُمَا، فَلِلْوَقْتِ تَجِدَانِ أَتَانًا مَرْبُوطَةً وَجَحْشًا مَعَهَا، فَحُلَّاهُمَا وَأْتِيَانِي بِهِمَا. ٢ 2
saying to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt beside her. Untie them and bring them to Me.
وَإِنْ قَالَ لَكُمَا أَحَدٌ شَيْئًا، فَقُولَا: ٱلرَّبُّ مُحْتَاجٌ إِلَيْهِمَا. فَلِلْوَقْتِ يُرْسِلُهُمَا». ٣ 3
If anyone questions you, tell him that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”
فَكَانَ هَذَا كُلُّهُ لِكَيْ يَتِمَّ مَا قِيلَ بِٱلنَّبِيِّ ٱلْقَائِلِ: ٤ 4
This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:
«قُولُوا لِٱبْنَةِ صِهْيَوْنَ: هُوَذَا مَلِكُكِ يَأْتِيكِ وَدِيعًا، رَاكِبًا عَلَى أَتَانٍ وَجَحْشٍ ٱبْنِ أَتَانٍ». ٥ 5
“Say to the Daughter of Zion, ‘See, your King comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”
فَذَهَبَ ٱلتِّلْمِيذَانِ وَفَعَلَا كَمَا أَمَرَهُمَا يَسُوعُ، ٦ 6
So the disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.
وَأَتَيَا بِٱلْأَتَانِ وَٱلْجَحْشِ، وَوَضَعَا عَلَيْهِمَا ثِيَابَهُمَا فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهِمَا. ٧ 7
They brought the donkey and the colt and laid their cloaks on them, and Jesus sat on them.
وَٱلْجَمْعُ ٱلْأَكْثَرُ فَرَشُوا ثِيَابَهُمْ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ. وَآخَرُونَ قَطَعُوا أَغْصَانًا مِنَ ٱلشَّجَرِ وَفَرَشُوهَا فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ. ٨ 8
A massive crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
وَٱلْجُمُوعُ ٱلَّذِينَ تَقَدَّمُوا وَٱلَّذِينَ تَبِعُوا كَانُوا يَصْرَخُونَ قَائِلِينَ: «أُوصَنَّا لِٱبْنِ دَاوُدَ! مُبَارَكٌ ٱلْآتِي بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ! أُوصَنَّا فِي ٱلْأَعَالِي!». ٩ 9
The crowds that went ahead of Him and those that followed were shouting: “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest!”
وَلَمَّا دَخَلَ أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱرْتَجَّتِ ٱلْمَدِينَةُ كُلُّهَا قَائِلَةً: «مَنْ هَذَا؟». ١٠ 10
When Jesus had entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”
فَقَالَتِ ٱلْجُمُوعُ: «هَذَا يَسُوعُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ نَاصِرَةِ ٱلْجَلِيلِ». ١١ 11
The crowds replied, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”
وَدَخَلَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى هَيْكَلِ ٱللهِ وَأَخْرَجَ جَمِيعَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَبِيعُونَ وَيَشْتَرُونَ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ، وَقَلَبَ مَوَائِدَ ٱلصَّيَارِفَةِ وَكَرَاسِيَّ بَاعَةِ ٱلْحَمَامِ ١٢ 12
Then Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves.
وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَكْتُوبٌ: بَيْتِي بَيْتَ ٱلصَّلَاةِ يُدْعَى. وَأَنْتُمْ جَعَلْتُمُوهُ مَغَارَةَ لُصُوصٍ!». ١٣ 13
And He declared to them, “It is written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer.’ But you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’”
وَتَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ عُمْيٌ وَعُرْجٌ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ فَشَفَاهُمْ. ١٤ 14
The blind and the lame came to Him at the temple, and He healed them.
فَلَمَّا رَأَى رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلْكَتَبَةِ ٱلْعَجَائِبَ ٱلَّتِي صَنَعَ، وَٱلْأَوْلَادَ يَصْرَخُونَ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ وَيَقُولُونَ: «أُوصَنَّا لِٱبْنِ دَاوُدَ!». غَضِبُوا ١٥ 15
But the chief priests and scribes were indignant when they saw the wonders He performed and the children shouting in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”
وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «أَتَسْمَعُ مَا يَقُولُ هَؤُلَاءِ؟». فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «نَعَمْ! أَمَا قَرَأْتُمْ قَطُّ: مِنْ أَفْوَاهِ ٱلْأَطْفَالِ وَٱلرُّضَّعِ هَيَّأْتَ تَسْبِيحًا؟». ١٦ 16
“Do you hear what these children are saying?” they asked. “Yes,” Jesus answered. “Have you never read: ‘From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise’?”
ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُمْ وَخَرَجَ خَارِجَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى بَيْتِ عَنْيَا وَبَاتَ هُنَاكَ. ١٧ 17
Then He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where He spent the night.
وَفِي ٱلصُّبْحِ إِذْ كَانَ رَاجِعًا إِلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ جَاعَ، ١٨ 18
In the morning, as Jesus was returning to the city, He was hungry.
فَنَظَرَ شَجَرَةَ تِينٍ عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقِ، وَجَاءَ إِلَيْهَا فَلَمْ يَجِدْ فِيهَا شَيْئًا إِلَّا وَرَقًا فَقَطْ. فَقَالَ لَهَا: «لَا يَكُنْ مِنْكِ ثَمَرٌ بَعْدُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ!». فَيَبِسَتِ ٱلتِّينَةُ فِي ٱلْحَالِ. (aiōn g165) ١٩ 19
Seeing a fig tree by the road, He went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. “May you never bear fruit again!” He said. And immediately the tree withered. (aiōn g165)
فَلَمَّا رَأَى ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ ذَلِكَ تَعَجَّبُوا قَائِلِينَ: «كَيْفَ يَبِسَتِ ٱلتِّينَةُ فِي ٱلْحَالِ؟». ٢٠ 20
When the disciples saw this, they marveled and asked, “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?”
فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اَلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنْ كَانَ لَكُمْ إِيمَانٌ وَلَا تَشُكُّونَ، فَلَا تَفْعَلُونَ أَمْرَ ٱلتِّينَةِ فَقَطْ، بَلْ إِنْ قُلْتُمْ أَيْضًا لِهَذَا ٱلْجَبَلِ: ٱنْتَقِلْ وَٱنْطَرِحْ فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ فَيَكُونُ. ٢١ 21
“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen.
وَكُلُّ مَا تَطْلُبُونَهُ فِي ٱلصَّلَاةِ مُؤْمِنِينَ تَنَالُونَهُ». ٢٢ 22
If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
وَلَمَّا جَاءَ إِلَى ٱلْهَيْكَلِ تَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَشُيُوخُ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَهُوَ يُعَلِّمُ، قَائِلِينَ: «بِأَيِّ سُلْطَانٍ تَفْعَلُ هَذَا؟ وَمَنْ أَعْطَاكَ هَذَا ٱلسُّلْطَانَ؟». ٢٣ 23
When Jesus returned to the temple courts and began to teach, the chief priests and elders of the people came up to Him. “By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You this authority?”
فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «وَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَسْأَلُكُمْ كَلِمَةً وَاحِدَةً، فَإِنْ قُلْتُمْ لِي عَنْهَا أَقُولُ لَكُمْ أَنَا أَيْضًا بِأَيِّ سُلْطَانٍ أَفْعَلُ هَذَا: ٢٤ 24
“I will also ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
مَعْمُودِيَّةُ يُوحَنَّا: مِنْ أَيْنَ كَانَتْ؟ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ أَمْ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ؟». فَفَكَّرُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنْ قُلْنَا: مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، يَقُولُ لَنَا: فَلِمَاذَا لَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ؟ ٢٥ 25
What was the source of John’s baptism? Was it from heaven or from men?” They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
وَإِنْ قُلْنَا: مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ، نَخَافُ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، لِأَنَّ يُوحَنَّا عِنْدَ ٱلْجَمِيعِ مِثْلُ نَبِيٍّ». ٢٦ 26
But if we say, ‘From men,’ we are afraid of the people, for they all regard John as a prophet.”
فَأَجَابُوا يَسُوعَ وَقَالُوا: «لَا نَعْلَمُ». فَقَالَ لَهُمْ هُوَ أَيْضًا: «وَلَا أَنَا أَقُولُ لَكُمْ بِأَيِّ سُلْطَانٍ أَفْعَلُ هَذَا. ٢٧ 27
So they answered, “We do not know.” And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
«مَاذَا تَظُنُّونَ؟ كَانَ لِإِنْسَانٍ ٱبْنَانِ، فَجَاءَ إِلَى ٱلْأَوَّلِ وَقَالَ: يا ٱبْنِي، ٱذْهَبِ ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱعْمَلْ فِي كَرْمِي. ٢٨ 28
But what do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first one and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’
فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ: مَا أُرِيدُ. وَلَكِنَّهُ نَدِمَ أَخِيرًا وَمَضَى. ٢٩ 29
‘I will not,’ he replied. But later he changed his mind and went.
وَجَاءَ إِلَى ٱلثَّانِي وَقَالَ كَذَلِكَ. فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ: هَا أَنَا يا سَيِّدُ. وَلَمْ يَمْضِ. ٣٠ 30
Then the man went to the second son and told him the same thing. ‘I will, sir,’ he said. But he did not go.
فَأَيُّ ٱلِٱثْنَيْنِ عَمِلَ إِرَادَةَ ٱلْأَبِ؟». قَالُوا لَهُ: «ٱلْأَوَّلُ». قَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «ٱلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ ٱلْعَشَّارِينَ وَٱلزَّوَانِيَ يَسْبِقُونَكُمْ إِلَى مَلَكُوتِ ٱللهِ، ٣١ 31
Which of the two did the will of his father?” “The first,” they answered. Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God before you.
لِأَنَّ يُوحَنَّا جَاءَكُمْ فِي طَرِيقِ ٱلْحَقِّ فَلَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ، وَأَمَّا ٱلْعَشَّارُونَ وَٱلزَّوَانِي فَآمَنُوا بِهِ. وَأَنْتُمْ إِذْ رَأَيْتُمْ لَمْ تَنْدَمُوا أَخِيرًا لِتُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ. ٣٢ 32
For John came to you in a righteous way and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him.
«اِسْمَعُوا مَثَلًا آخَرَ: كَانَ إِنْسَانٌ رَبُّ بَيْتٍ غَرَسَ كَرْمًا، وَأَحَاطَهُ بِسِيَاجٍ، وَحَفَرَ فِيهِ مَعْصَرَةً، وَبَنَى بُرْجًا، وَسَلَّمَهُ إِلَى كَرَّامِينَ وَسَافَرَ. ٣٣ 33
Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it, and built a tower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.
وَلَمَّا قَرُبَ وَقْتُ ٱلْأَثْمَارِ أَرْسَلَ عَبِيدَهُ إِلَى ٱلْكَرَّامِينَ لِيَأْخُذَ أَثْمَارَهُ. ٣٤ 34
When the harvest time drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit.
فَأَخَذَ ٱلْكَرَّامُونَ عَبِيدَهُ وَجَلَدُوا بَعْضًا وَقَتَلُوا بَعْضًا وَرَجَمُوا بَعْضًا. ٣٥ 35
But the tenants seized his servants. They beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.
ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ أَيْضًا عَبِيدًا آخَرِينَ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ، فَفَعَلُوا بِهِمْ كَذَلِكَ. ٣٦ 36
Again, he sent other servants, more than the first group. But the tenants did the same to them.
فَأَخِيرًا أَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمُ ٱبْنَهُ قَائِلًا: يَهَابُونَ ٱبْنِي! ٣٧ 37
Finally, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
وَأَمَّا ٱلْكَرَّامُونَ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا ٱلِٱبْنَ قَالُوا فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ: هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْوَارِثُ! هَلُمُّوا نَقْتُلْهُ وَنَأْخُذْ مِيرَاثَهُ! ٣٨ 38
But when the tenants saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and take his inheritance.’
فَأَخَذُوهُ وَأَخْرَجُوهُ خَارِجَ ٱلْكَرْمِ وَقَتَلُوهُ. ٣٩ 39
So they seized him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
فَمَتَى جَاءَ صَاحِبُ ٱلْكَرْمِ، مَاذَا يَفْعَلُ بِأُولَئِكَ ٱلْكَرَّامِينَ؟». ٤٠ 40
Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard returns, what will he do to those tenants?”
قَالُوا لَهُ: «أُولَئِكَ ٱلْأَرْدِيَاءُ يُهْلِكُهُمْ هَلَاكًا رَدِيًّا، وَيُسَلِّمُ ٱلْكَرْمَ إِلَى كَرَّامِينَ آخَرِينَ يُعْطُونَهُ ٱلْأَثْمَارَ فِي أَوْقَاتِهَا». ٤١ 41
“He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and will rent out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him his share of the fruit at harvest time.”
قَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «أَمَا قَرَأْتُمْ قَطُّ فِي ٱلْكُتُبِ: ٱلْحَجَرُ ٱلَّذِي رَفَضَهُ ٱلْبَنَّاؤُونَ هُوَ قَدْ صَارَ رَأْسَ ٱلزَّاوِيَةِ؟ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانَ هَذَا وَهُوَ عَجِيبٌ فِي أَعْيُنِنَا! ٤٢ 42
Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?
لِذَلِكَ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ مَلَكُوتَ ٱللهِ يُنْزَعُ مِنْكُمْ وَيُعْطَى لِأُمَّةٍ تَعْمَلُ أَثْمَارَهُ. ٤٣ 43
Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.
وَمَنْ سَقَطَ عَلَى هَذَا ٱلْحَجَرِ يَتَرَضَّضُ، وَمَنْ سَقَطَ هُوَ عَلَيْهِ يَسْحَقُهُ!». ٤٤ 44
He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ أَمْثَالَهُ، عَرَفُوا أَنَّهُ تَكَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ. ٤٥ 45
When the chief priests and Pharisees heard His parables, they knew that Jesus was speaking about them.
وَإِذْ كَانُوا يَطْلُبُونَ أَنْ يُمْسِكُوهُ، خَافُوا مِنَ ٱلْجُمُوعِ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ عِنْدَهُمْ مِثْلَ نَبِيٍّ. ٤٦ 46
Although they wanted to arrest Him, they were afraid of the crowds, because the people regarded Him as a prophet.
