١ كورنثوس 10
| فَإِنِّي لَسْتُ أُرِيدُ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنْ تَجْهَلُوا أَنَّ آبَاءَنَا جَمِيعَهُمْ كَانُوا تَحْتَ ٱلسَّحَابَةِ، وَجَمِيعَهُمُ ٱجْتَازُوا فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ، | ١ 1 |
I do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea.
| وَجَمِيعَهُمُ ٱعْتَمَدُوا لِمُوسَى فِي ٱلسَّحَابَةِ وَفِي ٱلْبَحْرِ، | ٢ 2 |
All were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,
| وَجَمِيعَهُمْ أَكَلُوا طَعَامًا وَاحِدًا رُوحِيًّا، | ٣ 3 |
and all ate the same spiritual food.
| وَجَمِيعَهُمْ شَرِبُوا شَرَابًا وَاحِدًا رُوحِيًّا، لِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يَشْرَبُونَ مِنْ صَخْرَةٍ رُوحِيَّةٍ تَابِعَتِهِمْ، وَٱلصَّخْرَةُ كَانَتِ ٱلْمَسِيحَ. | ٤ 4 |
All drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from a spiritual rock that followed them, and that rock was Christ.
| لَكِنْ بِأَكْثَرِهِمْ لَمْ يُسَرَّ ٱللهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ طُرِحُوا فِي ٱلْقَفْرِ. | ٥ 5 |
But God was not well pleased with most of them, and their corpses were scattered about in the wilderness.
| وَهَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورُ حَدَثَتْ مِثَالًا لَنَا، حَتَّى لَا نَكُونَ نَحْنُ مُشْتَهِينَ شُرُورًا كَمَا ٱشْتَهَى أُولَئِكَ. | ٦ 6 |
Now these things were examples for us, so we would not long for evil things as they did.
| فَلَا تَكُونُوا عَبَدَةَ أَوْثَانٍ كَمَا كَانَ أُنَاسٌ مِنْهُمْ، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «جَلَسَ ٱلشَّعْبُ لِلْأَكْلِ وَٱلشُّرْبِ، ثُمَّ قَامُوا لِلَّعِبِ». | ٧ 7 |
Do not be idolaters, as some of them were. This is as it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.”
| وَلَا نَزْنِ كَمَا زَنَى أُنَاسٌ مِنْهُمْ، فَسَقَطَ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ ثَلَاثَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا. | ٨ 8 |
Let us not commit sexual immorality, as many of them did. In one day, twenty-three thousand people died because of it.
| وَلَا نُجَرِّبِ ٱلْمَسِيحَ كَمَا جَرَّبَ أَيْضًا أُنَاسٌ مِنْهُمْ، فَأَهْلَكَتْهُمُ ٱلْحَيَّاتُ. | ٩ 9 |
Neither let us put Christ to the test, as many of them did and were destroyed by snakes.
| وَلَا تَتَذَمَّرُوا كَمَا تَذَمَّرَ أَيْضًا أُنَاسٌ مِنْهُمْ، فَأَهْلَكَهُمُ ٱلْمُهْلِكُ. | ١٠ 10 |
Also do not grumble, as many of them did and were destroyed by an angel of death.
| فَهَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورُ جَمِيعُهَا أَصَابَتْهُمْ مِثَالًا، وَكُتِبَتْ لإِنْذَارِنَا نَحْنُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱنْتَهَتْ إِلَيْنَا أَوَاخِرُ ٱلدُّهُورِ. (aiōn g165) | ١١ 11 |
Now these things happened to them as examples for us. They were written for our instruction—for us on whom the end of the ages has come. (aiōn g165)
| إِذًا مَنْ يَظُنُّ أَنَّهُ قَائِمٌ، فَلْيَنْظُرْ أَنْ لَا يَسْقُطَ. | ١٢ 12 |
Therefore let anyone who thinks he stands be careful that he does not fall.
| لَمْ تُصِبْكُمْ تَجْرِبَةٌ إِلَّا بَشَرِيَّةٌ. وَلَكِنَّ ٱللهَ أَمِينٌ، ٱلَّذِي لَا يَدَعُكُمْ تُجَرَّبُونَ فَوْقَ مَا تَسْتَطِيعُونَ، بَلْ سَيَجْعَلُ مَعَ ٱلتَّجْرِبَةِ أَيْضًا ٱلْمَنْفَذَ، لِتَسْتَطِيعُوا أَنْ تَحْتَمِلُوا. | ١٣ 13 |
No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to all humanity. Instead, God is faithful. He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability. With the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, so that you may be able to endure it.
| لِذَلِكَ يَا أَحِبَّائِي ٱهْرُبُوا مِنْ عِبَادَةِ ٱلْأَوْثَانِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Therefore, my loved ones, run away from idolatry.
| أَقُولُ كَمَا لِلْحُكَمَاءِ: ٱحْكُمُوا أَنْتُمْ فِي مَا أَقُولُ: | ١٥ 15 |
I speak to you as people who have understanding, so you may judge what I say.
| كَأْسُ ٱلْبَرَكَةِ ٱلَّتِي نُبَارِكُهَا، أَلَيْسَتْ هِيَ شَرِكَةَ دَمِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ؟ ٱلْخُبْزُ ٱلَّذِي نَكْسِرُهُ، أَلَيْسَ هُوَ شَرِكَةَ جَسَدِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ؟ | ١٦ 16 |
The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a sharing in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a sharing in the body of Christ?
| فَإِنَّنَا نَحْنُ ٱلْكَثِيرِينَ خُبْزٌ وَاحِدٌ، جَسَدٌ وَاحِدٌ، لِأَنَّنَا جَمِيعَنَا نَشْتَرِكُ فِي ٱلْخُبْزِ ٱلْوَاحِدِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Because there is one loaf of bread, we who are many are one body. We all take of one loaf of bread together.
| ٱنْظُرُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ. أَلَيْسَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ ٱلذَّبَائِحَ هُمْ شُرَكَاءَ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
Look at the people of Israel. Are not those who eat the sacrifices participants in the altar?
| فَمَاذَا أَقُولُ؟ أَإِنَّ ٱلْوَثَنَ شَيْءٌ، أَوْ إِنَّ مَا ذُبِحَ لِلْوَثَنِ شَيْءٌ؟! | ١٩ 19 |
What am I saying then? That an idol is anything? Or that food sacrificed to an idol is anything?
| بَلْ إِنَّ مَا يَذْبَحُهُ ٱلْأُمَمُ فَإِنَّمَا يَذْبَحُونَهُ لِلشَّيَاطِينِ، لَا لِلهِ. فَلَسْتُ أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَكُونُوا أَنْتُمْ شُرَكَاءَ ٱلشَّيَاطِينِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
But I say about the things the Gentile pagans sacrifice, that they offer these things to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons!
| لَا تَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ تَشْرَبُوا كَأْسَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَكَأْسَ شَيَاطِينَ. لَا تَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ تَشْتَرِكُوا فِي مَائِدَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَفِي مَائِدَةِ شَيَاطِينَ. | ٢١ 21 |
You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot have fellowship at the table of the Lord and the table of demons.
| أَمْ نُغِيرُ ٱلرَّبَّ؟ أَلَعَلَّنَا أَقْوَى مِنْهُ؟ | ٢٢ 22 |
Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he is?
| «كُلُّ ٱلْأَشْيَاءِ تَحِلُّ لِي»، لَكِنْ لَيْسَ كُلُّ ٱلْأَشْيَاءِ تُوَافِقُ. «كُلُّ ٱلْأَشْيَاءِ تَحِلُّ لِي»، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ كُلُّ ٱلْأَشْيَاءِ تَبْنِي. | ٢٣ 23 |
“Everything is lawful,” but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is lawful,” but not everything builds people up.
| لَا يَطْلُبْ أَحَدٌ مَا هُوَ لِنَفْسِهِ، بَلْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مَا هُوَ لِلْآخَرِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
No one should seek his own good. Instead, each one should seek the good of his neighbor.
| كُلُّ مَا يُبَاعُ فِي ٱلْمَلْحَمَةِ كُلُوهُ غَيْرَ فَاحِصِينَ عَنْ شَيْءٍ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلضَّمِيرِ، | ٢٥ 25 |
You may eat whatever is sold in the market, without questions of conscience.
| لِأَنَّ «لِلرَّبِّ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَمِلْأَهَا». | ٢٦ 26 |
For “the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it.”
| وَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ غَيْرِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَدْعُوكُمْ، وَتُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَذْهَبُوا، فَكُلُّ مَا يُقَدَّمُ لَكُمْ كُلُوا مِنْهُ غَيْرَ فَاحِصِينَ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلضَّمِيرِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
If an unbeliever invites you to eat a meal, and you wish to go, eat whatever is set before you without asking questions of conscience.
| وَلَكِنْ إِنْ قَالَ لَكُمْ أَحَدٌ: «هَذَا مَذْبُوحٌ لِوَثَنٍ» فَلَا تَأْكُلُوا مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَاكَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْلَمَكُمْ، وَٱلضَّمِيرِ. لِأَنَّ «لِلرَّبِّ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَمِلْأَهَا». | ٢٨ 28 |
But if someone says to you, “This has been offered in sacrifice,” then do not eat it, both for the sake of the one who informed you, and for the sake of conscience—
| أَقُولُ «ٱلضَّمِيرُ»، لَيْسَ ضَمِيرَكَ أَنْتَ، بَلْ ضَمِيرُ ٱلْآخَرِ. لِأَنَّهُ لِمَاذَا يُحْكَمُ فِي حُرِّيَّتِي مِنْ ضَمِيرِ آخَرَ؟ | ٢٩ 29 |
the conscience of the other man, I mean, and not yours. For why should my freedom be judged by another's conscience?
| فَإِنْ كُنْتُ أَنَا أَتَنَاوَلُ بِشُكْرٍ، فَلِمَاذَا يُفْتَرَى عَلَيَّ لِأَجْلِ مَا أَشْكُرُ عَلَيْهِ؟ | ٣٠ 30 |
If I partake of the meal with gratitude, why am I being insulted for that for which I gave thanks?
| فَإِذَا كُنْتُمْ تَأْكُلُونَ أَوْ تَشْرَبُونَ أَوْ تَفْعَلُونَ شَيْئًا، فَٱفْعَلُوا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ لِمَجْدِ ٱللهِ. | ٣١ 31 |
Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
| كُونُوا بِلَا عَثْرَةٍ لِلْيَهُودِ وَلِلْيُونَانِيِّينَ وَلِكَنِيسَةِ ٱللهِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks, or to the church of God.
| كَمَا أَنَا أَيْضًا أُرْضِي ٱلْجَمِيعَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، غَيْرَ طَالِبٍ مَا يُوَافِقُ نَفْسِي، بَلِ ٱلْكَثِيرِينَ، لِكَيْ يَخْلُصُوا. | ٣٣ 33 |
I try to please all people in all things. I do not seek my benefit, but that of the many. I do this so that they may be saved.
