مَتَّى 22
| وَجَعَلَ يَسُوعُ يُكَلِّمُهُمْ أَيْضًا بِأَمْثَالٍ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
And Jesus answered and spoke to them again by parables, and said,
| «يُشْبِهُ مَلَكُوتُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ إِنْسَانًا مَلِكًا صَنَعَ عُرْسًا لِٱبْنِهِ، | ٢ 2 |
The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage for his son,
| وَأَرْسَلَ عَبِيدَهُ لِيَدْعُوا ٱلْمَدْعُوِّينَ إِلَى ٱلْعُرْسِ، فَلَمْ يُرِيدُوا أَنْ يَأْتُوا. | ٣ 3 |
And sent his servants to call them that were invited to the wedding: and they would not come.
| فَأَرْسَلَ أَيْضًا عَبِيدًا آخَرِينَ قَائِلًا: قُولُوا لِلْمَدْعُوِّينَ: هُوَذَا غَدَائِي أَعْدَدْتُهُ. ثِيرَانِي وَمُسَمَّنَاتِي قَدْ ذُبِحَتْ، وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ مُعَدٌّ. تَعَالَوْا إِلَى ٱلْعُرْسِ! | ٤ 4 |
Again, he sent other servants, saying, Tell them who are invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come to the marriage.
| وَلَكِنَّهُمْ تَهَاوَنُوا وَمَضَوْا، وَاحِدٌ إِلَى حَقْلِهِ، وَآخَرُ إِلَى تِجَارَتِهِ، | ٥ 5 |
But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
| وَٱلْبَاقُونَ أَمْسَكُوا عَبِيدَهُ وَشَتَمُوهُمْ وَقَتَلُوهُمْ. | ٦ 6 |
And the remnant took his servants, and treated them spitefully, and slew them.
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ غَضِبَ، وَأَرْسَلَ جُنُودَهُ وَأَهْلَكَ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْقَاتِلِينَ وَأَحْرَقَ مَدِينَتَهُمْ. | ٧ 7 |
But when the king heard of it, he was angry: and he sent his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لِعَبِيدِهِ: أَمَّا ٱلْعُرْسُ فَمُسْتَعَدٌّ، وَأَمَّا ٱلْمَدْعُوُّونَ فَلَمْ يَكُونُوا مُسْتَحِقِّينَ. | ٨ 8 |
Then he saith to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they who were invited were not worthy.
| فَٱذْهَبُوا إِلَى مَفَارِقِ ٱلطُّرُقِ، وَكُلُّ مَنْ وَجَدْتُمُوهُ فَٱدْعُوهُ إِلَى ٱلْعُرْسِ. | ٩ 9 |
Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, invite to the marriage.
| فَخَرَجَ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْعَبِيدُ إِلَى ٱلطُّرُقِ، وَجَمَعُوا كُلَّ ٱلَّذِينَ وَجَدُوهُمْ أَشْرَارًا وَصَالِحِينَ. فَٱمْتَلَأَ ٱلْعُرْسُ مِنَ ٱلْمُتَّكِئِينَ. | ١٠ 10 |
So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
| فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِيَنْظُرَ ٱلْمُتَّكِئِينَ، رَأَى هُنَاكَ إِنْسَانًا لَمْ يَكُنْ لَابِسًا لِبَاسَ ٱلْعُرْسِ. | ١١ 11 |
And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who had not a wedding garment:
| فَقَالَ لَهُ: يا صَاحِبُ، كَيْفَ دَخَلْتَ إِلَى هُنَا وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ لِبَاسُ ٱلْعُرْسِ؟ فَسَكَتَ. | ١٢ 12 |
And he saith to him, Friend, how camest thou in here not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
| حِينَئِذٍ قَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِلْخُدَّامِ: ٱرْبُطُوا رِجْلَيْهِ وَيَدَيْهِ، وَخُذُوهُ وَٱطْرَحُوهُ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ ٱلْخَارِجِيَّةِ. هُنَاكَ يَكُونُ ٱلْبُكَاءُ وَصَرِيرُ ٱلْأَسْنَانِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
| لِأَنَّ كَثِيرِينَ يُدْعَوْنَ وَقَلِيلِينَ يُنْتَخَبُونَ». | ١٤ 14 |
For many are called, but few are chosen.
| حِينَئِذٍ ذَهَبَ ٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ وَتَشَاوَرُوا لِكَيْ يَصْطَادُوهُ بِكَلِمَةٍ. | ١٥ 15 |
Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.
| فَأَرْسَلُوا إِلَيْهِ تَلَامِيذَهُمْ مَعَ ٱلْهِيرُودُسِيِّينَ قَائِلِينَ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ صَادِقٌ وَتُعَلِّمُ طَرِيقَ ٱللهِ بِٱلْحَقِّ، وَلَا تُبَالِي بِأَحَدٍ، لِأَنَّكَ لَا تَنْظُرُ إِلَى وُجُوهِ ٱلنَّاسِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And they sent out to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men.
| فَقُلْ لَنَا: مَاذَا تَظُنُّ؟ أَيَجُوزُ أَنْ تُعْطَى جِزْيَةٌ لِقَيْصَرَ أَمْ لَا؟». | ١٧ 17 |
Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
| فَعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ خُبْثَهُمْ وَقَالَ: «لِمَاذَا تُجَرِّبُونَنِي يا مُرَاؤُونَ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?
| أَرُونِي مُعَامَلَةَ ٱلْجِزْيَةِ». فَقَدَّمُوا لَهُ دِينَارًا. | ١٩ 19 |
Show me the tribute money. And they brought to him a penny.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِمَنْ هَذِهِ ٱلصُّورَةُ وَٱلْكِتَابَةُ؟». | ٢٠ 20 |
And he saith to them, Whose is this image and superscription?
| قَالُوا لَهُ: «لِقَيْصَرَ». فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَعْطُوا إِذًا مَا لِقَيْصَرَ لِقَيْصَرَ وَمَا لِلهِ لِلهِ». | ٢١ 21 |
They say to him, Caesar’s. Then saith he to them, Render therefore to Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and to God the things that are God’s.
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعُوا تَعَجَّبُوا وَتَرَكُوهُ وَمَضَوْا. | ٢٢ 22 |
When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and departed.
| فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ جَاءَ إِلَيْهِ صَدُّوقِيُّونَ، ٱلَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ لَيْسَ قِيَامَةٌ، فَسَأَلُوهُ | ٢٣ 23 |
The same day came to him the Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
| قَائِلِينَ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، قَالَ مُوسَى: إِنْ مَاتَ أَحَدٌ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ أَوْلَادٌ، يَتَزَوَّجْ أَخُوهُ بِٱمْرَأَتِهِ وَيُقِمْ نَسْلًا لِأَخِيهِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
| فَكَانَ عِنْدَنَا سَبْعَةُ إِخْوَةٍ، وَتَزَوَّجَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ وَمَاتَ. وَإِذْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ نَسْلٌ تَرَكَ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ لِأَخِيهِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Now there were with us seven brothers: and the first, when he had married a wife, died, and, having no issue, left his wife to his brother:
| وَكَذَلِكَ ٱلثَّانِي وَٱلثَّالِثُ إِلَى ٱلسَّبْعَةِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Likewise the second also, and the third, to the seventh.
| وَآخِرَ ٱلْكُلِّ مَاتَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ أَيْضًا. | ٢٧ 27 |
And last of all the woman died also.
| فَفِي ٱلْقِيَامَةِ لِمَنْ مِنَ ٱلسَّبْعَةِ تَكُونُ زَوْجَةً؟ فَإِنَّهَا كَانَتْ لِلْجَمِيعِ!». | ٢٨ 28 |
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
| فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «تَضِلُّونَ إِذْ لَا تَعْرِفُونَ ٱلْكُتُبَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ ٱللهِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Jesus answered and said to them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
| لِأَنَّهُمْ فِي ٱلْقِيَامَةِ لَا يُزَوِّجُونَ وَلَا يَتَزَوَّجُونَ، بَلْ يَكُونُونَ كَمَلَائِكَةِ ٱللهِ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
| وَأَمَّا مِنْ جِهَةِ قِيَامَةِ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ، أَفَمَا قَرَأْتُمْ مَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱللهِ ٱلْقَائِلِ: | ٣١ 31 |
But as concerning the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
| أَنَا إِلَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِلَهُ إِسْحَاقَ وَإِلَهُ يَعْقُوبَ؟ لَيْسَ ٱللهُ إِلَهَ أَمْوَاتٍ بَلْ إِلَهُ أَحْيَاءٍ». | ٣٢ 32 |
I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْجُمُوعُ بُهِتُوا مِنْ تَعْلِيمِهِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.
| أَمَّا ٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ فَلَمَّا سَمِعُوا أَنَّهُ أَبْكَمَ ٱلصَّدُّوقِيِّينَ ٱجْتَمَعُوا مَعًا، | ٣٤ 34 |
But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together about him.
| وَسَأَلَهُ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ، وَهُوَ نَامُوسِيٌّ، لِيُجَرِّبَهُ قَائِلًا: | ٣٥ 35 |
Then one of them, who was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
| «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، أَيَّةُ وَصِيَّةٍ هِيَ ٱلْعُظْمَى فِي ٱلنَّامُوسِ؟». | ٣٦ 36 |
Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
| فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «تُحِبُّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ نَفْسِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ فِكْرِكَ. | ٣٧ 37 |
Jesus said to him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
| هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْوَصِيَّةُ ٱلْأُولَى وَٱلْعُظْمَى. | ٣٨ 38 |
This is the first and great commandment.
| وَٱلثَّانِيَةُ مِثْلُهَا: تُحِبُّ قَرِيبَكَ كَنَفْسِكَ. | ٣٩ 39 |
And the second is like it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
| بِهَاتَيْنِ ٱلْوَصِيَّتَيْنِ يَتَعَلَّقُ ٱلنَّامُوسُ كُلُّهُ وَٱلْأَنْبِيَاءُ». | ٤٠ 40 |
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
| وَفِيمَا كَانَ ٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ مُجْتَمِعِينَ سَأَلَهُمْ يَسُوعُ | ٤١ 41 |
While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,
| قَائِلًا: «مَاذَا تَظُنُّونَ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ؟ ٱبْنُ مَنْ هُوَ؟» قَالُوا لَهُ: «ٱبْنُ دَاوُدَ». | ٤٢ 42 |
Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say to him, The Son of David.
| قَالَ لَهُمْ: «فَكَيْفَ يَدْعُوهُ دَاوُدُ بِٱلرُّوحِ رَبًّا؟ قَائِلًا: | ٤٣ 43 |
He saith to them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,
| قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِرَبِّي: ٱجْلِسْ عَنْ يَمِينِي حَتَّى أَضَعَ أَعْدَاءَكَ مَوْطِئًا لِقَدَمَيْكَ. | ٤٤ 44 |
The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thy enemies thy footstool?
| فَإِنْ كَانَ دَاوُدُ يَدْعُوهُ رَبًّا، فَكَيْفَ يَكُونُ ٱبْنَهُ؟». | ٤٥ 45 |
If David then calleth him Lord, how is he his son?
| فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يُجِيبَهُ بِكَلِمَةٍ. وَمِنْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ لَمْ يَجْسُرْ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَسْأَلَهُ بَتَّةً. | ٤٦ 46 |
And no man was able to answer him a word, neither dared any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
