Hebrews 10

1 For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.

١ فَقَدْ كَانَتْ شَرِيعَةُ مُوسَى تَتَضَمَّنُ ظِلاً وَاهِياً لِلْخَيْرَاتِ الَّتِي سَيَأْتِي بِهَا الْمَسِيحُ، وَلَمْ تَكُنْ لِتُصَوِّرَ الْحَقِيقَةَ ذَاتَهَا. وَلِذَلِكَ، لَمْ تَكُنْ قَادِرَةً أَنْ تُوصِلَ إِلَى الْكَمَالِ أُولئِكَ الَّذِينَ يَتَقَرَّبُونَ بِهَا إِلَى اللهِ، مُقَدِّمِينَ دَائِماً الذَّبَائِحَ السَّنَوِيَّةَ عَيْنَهَا،

2 Or else would not they have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?

٢ وَإِلاَّ، لَمَا كَانَ هُنَالِكَ دَاعٍ لِلاسْتِمْرَارِ فِي تَقْدِيمِهَا! لأَنَّ ضَمَائِرَ الْعَابِدِينَ، مَتَى تَطَهَّرَتْ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً إِلَى التَّمَامِ، لاَ تَعُودُ بِحَاجَةٍ إِلَى التَّطْهِيرِ مَرَّةً ثَانِيَةً: إِذْ يَكُونُ الشُّعُورُ بِالذَّنْبِ قَدْ زَالَ.

3 But in those sacrifices there is a yearly reminder of sins.

٣ وَلَكِنَّ فِي عَمَلِيَّةِ تَقْدِيمِ الذَّبَائِحِ الْمُتَكَرِّرَةِ كُلَّ سَنَةٍ، تَذْكِيراً لِلْعَابِدِينَ بِخَطَايَاهُمْ.

4 For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.

٤ فَمِنَ الْمُسْتَحِيلِ أَنْ يُزِيلَ دَمُ الثِّيرَانِ وَالتُّيُوسِ خَطايَا النَّاسِ.

5 Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, “You did not desire sacrifice and offering, but you prepared a body for me.

٥ لِذَلِكَ قَالَ الْمَسِيحُ، عِنْدَ مَجِيئِهِ إِلَى هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ: «إِنَّ الذَّبَائِحَ وَالتَّقْدِمَاتِ مَا أَرَدْتَهَا. لَكِنَّكَ أَعْدَدْتَ لِي جَسَداً بَشَرِيّاً.

6 You had no pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.

٦ فَالْحَيَوَانَاتُ الَّتِي كَانَتْ تُذْبَحُ وَتُحْرَقُ أَمَامَكَ تَكْفِيراً عَنِ الْخَطِيئَةِ، لَمْ تَرْضَ بِهَا.

7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me) to do your will, O God.’”

٧ عِنْدَئِذٍ قُلْتُ لَكَ: هَا أَنَا آتِي لأَعْمَلَ إِرَادَتَكَ، يَااللهُ. هَذَا هُوَ الْمَكْتُوبُ عَنِّي فِي صَفْحَةِ الْكِتَابِ!»

8 Previously saying, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you did not desire, neither had pleasure in them” (those which are offered according to the law),

٨ فَبَعْدَ أَنْ عَبَّرَ الْمَسِيحُ عَنْ عَدَمِ رِضَى اللهِ بِجَمِيعِ التَّقْدِمَاتِ وَالذَّبَائِحِ الَّتِي كَانَتْ تُقَرَّبُ مَعَ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تُقَدَّمُ وَفْقاً لِلشَّرِيعَةِ،

9 then he has said, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,

٩ أَضَافَ قَائِلاً: «هَا أَنَا آتِي لأَعْمَلَ إِرَادَتَكَ!» فَهُوَ، إِذَنْ، يُلْغِي النِّظَامَ السَّابِقَ، لِيَضَعَ مَحَلَّهُ نِظَاماً جَدِيداً.

10 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

١٠ بِمُوجِبِ هَذِهِ الإِرَادَةِ الإِلَهِيَّةِ، صِرْنَا مُقَدَّسِينَ إِذْ قَدَّمَ يَسُوعُ الْمَسِيحُ، مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً، جَسَدَهُ عِوَضاً عَنَّا!

11 Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,

١١ وَقَدِيماً، كَانَ كُلُّ كَاهِنٍ يَقِفُ يَوْمِيّاً أَمَامَ الْمَذْبَحِ لِيَقُومَ بِمُهِمَّتِهِ، فَيُقَدِّمُ لِلهِ تِلْكَ الذَّبَائِحَ عَيْنَهَا، مَعَ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ قَادِرَةً عَلَى إِزَالَةِ الْخَطَايَا إِطْلاَقاً.

12 but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God,

١٢ وَلَكِنَّ الْمَسِيحَ، رَئِيسَ كَهَنَتِنَا، قَدَّمَ ذَبِيحَةً وَاحِدَةً عَنِ الْخَطَايَا، ثُمَّ جَلَسَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ عَنْ يَمِينِ اللهِ،

13 from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet.

١٣ مُنْتَظِراً أَنْ يُوضَعَ أَعْدَاؤُهُ مَوْطِئاً لِقَدَمَيْهِ.

14 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

١٤ إِذْ إِنَّهُ، بِتَقْدِمَةٍ وَحِيدَةٍ جَعَلَ أُولَئِكَ الَّذِينَ قَدَّسَهُمْ كَامِلِينَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.

15 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,

١٥ وَالرُّوحُ الْقُدُسُ نَفْسُهُ يَشْهَدُ لَنَا بِهَذِهِ الْحَقِيقَةِ. إِذْ قَالَ أَوَّلاً:

16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days,” says the Lord, “I will put my laws on their heart, I will also write them on their mind;” then he says,

١٦ «هَذَا هُوَ الْعَهْدُ الَّذِي أُبْرِمُهُ مَعَهُمْ بَعْدَ تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: أَضَعُ شَرَائِعِي فِي دَاخِلِ قُلُوبِهِمْ، وَأَكْتُبُهَا فِي عُقُولِهِمْ».

17 “I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more.”

١٧ ثُمَّ أَضَافَ: «وَلاَ أَعُودُ أَبَداً إِلَى تَذَكُّرِ خَطَايَاهُمْ وَمُخَالَفَاتِهِمْ».

18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

١٨ فَحِينَمَا يَتَحَقَّقُ غُفْرَانُ الْخَطَايَا، لاَ تَبْقَى حَاجَةٌ بَعْدُ إِلَى تَقْرِيبِ التَّقْدِمَاتِ!

19 Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,

١٩ فَلَنَا الآنَ، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ حَقُّ التَّقَدُّمِ بِثِقَةٍ إِلَى «قُدْسِ الأَقْدَاسِ» (فِي السَّمَاءِ) بِدَمِ يَسُوعَ.

20 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh,

٢٠ وَذَلِكَ بِسُلُوكِ هَذَا الطَّرِيقِ الْحَيِّ الْجَدِيدِ الَّذِي شَقَّهُ لَنَا الْمَسِيحُ بِتَمْزِيقِ الحِجَابِ، أَيْ جَسَدِهِ.

21 and having a great priest over God’s house,

٢١ وَلَنَا أَيْضاً كَاهِنٌ عَظِيمٌ يُمَارِسُ سُلْطَتَهُ عَلَى بَيْتِ اللهِ.

22 let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and having our body washed with pure water,

٢٢ فَلْنَتَقَدَّمْ إِلَى حَضْرَةِ اللهِ بِقَلْبٍ صَادِقٍ وَبِثِقَةِ الإِيمَانِ الْكَامِلَةِ، بَعْدَمَا طَهَّرَ رَشُّ الدَّمِ قُلُوبَنَا مِنْ كُلِّ شُعُورٍ بِالذَّنْبِ، وَغَسَلَ الْمَاءُ النَّقِيُّ أَجْسَادَنَا.

23 let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.

٢٣ وَلْنَتَمَسَّكْ دَائِماً بِالرَّجَاءِ الَّذِي نَعْتَرِفُ بِهِ، دُونَ أَنْ نَشُكَّ فِي أَنَّهُ سَيَتَحَقَّقُ، لأَنَّ الَّذِي وَعَدَنَا بِتَحْقِيقِهِ، هُوَ أَمِينٌ وَصَادِقٌ.

24 Let’s consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,

٢٤ وَعَلَى كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَّا أَنْ يَنْتَبِهَ لِلآخَرِينَ، لِنَحُثَّ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضاً عَلَى الْمَحَبَّةِ وَالأَعْمَالِ الصَّالِحَةِ.

25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

٢٥ وَعَلَيْنَا أَلاَّ نَنْقَطِعَ عَنِ الاجْتِمَاعِ مَعاً، كَمَا تَعَوَّدَ بَعْضُكُمْ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ. إِنَّمَا، يَجْدُرُ بِكُمْ أَنْ تَحُثُّوا وَتُشَجِّعُوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضاً، وَتُوَاظِبُوا عَلَى هَذَا بِقَدْرِ مَا تَرَوْنَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ يَقْتَرِبُ.

26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,

٢٦ فَإِنْ أَخْطَأْنَا عَمْداً بِرَفْضِنَا لِلْمَسِيحِ بَعْدَ حُصُولِنَا عَلَى مَعْرِفَةِ الْحَقِّ، لاَ تَبْقَى هُنَاكَ ذَبِيحَةٌ لِغُفْرَانِ الْخَطَايَا،

27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.

٢٧ بَلِ انْتِظَارُ الْعِقَابِ الأَكِيدِ فِي لَهِيبِ النَّارِ الَّتِي سَتَلْتَهِمُ الْمُتَمَرِّدِينَ. وَيَا لَهُ مِنِ انْتِظَارٍ مُخِيفٍ!

28 A man who disregards Moses’ law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses.

٢٨ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ مَنْ خَالَفَ شَرِيعَةَ مُوسَى، كَانَ عِقَابَهُ الْمَوْتُ دُونَ رَحْمَةٍ، عَلَى أَنْ يُؤَيِّدَ مُخَالَفَتَهُ شَاهِدَانِ أَوْ ثَلاَثَةٌ.

29 How much worse punishment do you think he will be judged worthy of who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

٢٩ فَفِي ظَنِّكُمْ، كَمْ يَكُونُ أَشَدَّ كَثِيراً ذَلِكَ الْعِقَابُ الَّذِي يَسْتَحِقُّهُ مَنْ يَدُوسُ ابْنَ اللهِ، إِذْ يَعْتَبِرُ أَنَّ دَمَ الْعَهْدِ، الَّذِي يَتَقَدَّسُ بِهِ، هُوَ دَمٌ نَجِسٌ، وَبِذَلِكَ يُهِينُ رُوحَ النِّعْمَةِ؟

30 For we know him who said, “Vengeance belongs to me. I will repay,” says the Lord. Again, “The Lord will judge his people.”

٣٠ فَنَحْنُ نَعْرِفُ مَنْ قَالَ: «لِيَ الانْتِقَامُ، أَنَا أُجَازِي، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ!» وَأَيْضاً: «إِنَّ الرَّبَّ سَوْفَ يُحَاكِمُ شَعْبَهُ!»

31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

٣١ حَقّاً مَا أَرْهَبَ الْوُقُوعَ فِي يَدَيِ اللهِ الْحَيِّ!

32 But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings:

٣٢ لاَ تَنْسَوْا أَبَداً تِلْكَ الأَيَّامَ الْمَاضِيَةَ الَّتِي فِيهَا، بَعْدَمَا أَشْرَقَ عَلَيْكُمْ نُورُ الإِيمَانِ بِالْمَسِيحِ، صَبَرْتُمْ عَلَى جِهَادٍ مَرِيرٍ طَوِيلٍ، إِذْ قَاسَيْتُمْ كَثِيراً مِنَ الآلاَمِ.

33 partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions, and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so.

٣٣ وَذَلِكَ عِنْدَمَا تَعَرَّضْتُمْ لِلإِهَانَاتِ وَالْمُضَايَقَاتِ مِنْ جِهَةٍ، وَعِنْدَمَا شَارَكْتُمُ الَّذِينَ عُومِلُوا مِثْلَ هَذِهِ الْمُعَامَلَةِ مِنْ جِهَةٍ أُخْرَى.

34 For you both had compassion on me in my chains and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one in the heavens.

٣٤ فَقَدْ تَعَاطَفْتُمْ مَعَ الْمَسْجُونِينَ، كَمَا تَقَبَّلْتُمْ نَهْبَ مُمْتَلَكَاتِكُمْ بِفَرَحٍ، عِلْماً مِنْكُمْ بِأَنَّ لَكُمْ فِي السَّمَاءِ ثَرْوَةً أَفْضَلَ وَأَبْقَى.

35 Therefore do not throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.

٣٥ إِذَنْ، لاَ تَتَخَلَّوْا عَنْ ثِقَتِكُمْ بِالرَّبِّ. فَإِنَّ لَهَا مُكَافَأَةً عَظِيمَةً.

36 For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.

٣٦ إِنَّكُمْ تحْتَاجُونَ إِلَى الصَّبْرِ لِتَعْمَلُوا إِرَادَةَ اللهِ، فَتَنَالُوا الْبَرَكَةَ الَّتِي وُعِدْتُمْ بِهَا.

37 “In a very little while, he who comes will come and will not wait.

٣٧ فَقَرِيباً جِدّاً، سَيَأْتِي الآتِي وَلاَ يَتَمَهَّلُ.

38 But the righteous one will live by faith. If he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”

٣٨ وَأَمَّا مَنْ تَبَرَّرَ بِالإِيمَانِ، فَبِالإِيمَانِ يَحْيَا. وَمَنِ ارْتَدَّ لاَ تُسَرُّ بِهِ نَفْسِي!

39 But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.

٣٩ وَلَكِنَّنَا نَحْنُ لَسْنَا مِنْ أَهْلِ الارْتِدَادِ الْمُؤَدِّي إِلَى الْهَلاَكِ، بَلْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الإِيمَانِ الْمُؤَدِّي إِلَى خَلاَصِ نُفُوسِنَا!
