٢ بطرس 2
| وَلَكِنْ، كَانَ أَيْضًا فِي ٱلشَّعْبِ أَنْبِيَاءُ كَذَبَةٌ، كَمَا سَيَكُونُ فِيكُمْ أَيْضًا مُعَلِّمُونَ كَذَبَةٌ، ٱلَّذِينَ يَدُسُّونَ بِدَعَ هَلَاكٍ. وَإِذْ هُمْ يُنْكِرُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلَّذِي ٱشْتَرَاهُمْ، يَجْلِبُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ هَلَاكًا سَرِيعًا. | ١ 1 |
False prophets came to the people, and false teachers will also come to you. They will secretly bring with them destructive heresies, and they will deny the master who bought them. They are bringing quick destruction upon themselves.
| وَسَيَتْبَعُ كَثِيرُونَ تَهْلُكَاتِهِمْ. ٱلَّذِينَ بِسَبَبِهِمْ يُجَدَّفُ عَلَى طَرِيقِ ٱلْحَقِّ. | ٢ 2 |
Many will follow their sensuality, and through them the way of truth will be blasphemed.
| وَهُمْ فِي ٱلطَّمَعِ يَتَّجِرُونَ بِكُمْ بِأَقْوَالٍ مُصَنَّعَةٍ، ٱلَّذِينَ دَيْنُونَتُهُمْ مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ لَا تَتَوَانَى، وَهَلَاكُهُمْ لَا يَنْعَسُ. | ٣ 3 |
In their greed they will exploit you with deceptive words. For a long time their condemnation has not been idle, and their destruction is not asleep.
| لِأَنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ ٱللهُ لَمْ يُشْفِقْ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةٍ قَدْ أَخْطَأُوا، بَلْ فِي سَلَاسِلِ ٱلظَّلَامِ طَرَحَهُمْ فِي جَهَنَّمَ، وَسَلَّمَهُمْ مَحْرُوسِينَ لِلْقَضَاءِ، (Tartaroō g5020) | ٤ 4 |
For God did not spare the angels who sinned. Instead he handed them down to Tartarus to be kept in chains of lower darkness until the judgment. (Tartaroō g5020)
| وَلَمْ يُشْفِقْ عَلَى ٱلْعَالَمِ ٱلْقَدِيمِ، بَلْ إِنَّمَا حَفِظَ نُوحًا ثَامِنًا كَارِزًا لِلْبِرِّ، إِذْ جَلَبَ طُوفَانًا عَلَى عَالَمِ ٱلْفُجَّارِ. | ٥ 5 |
Also, he did not spare the ancient world. Instead, he preserved Noah, who was a herald of righteousness, along with seven others, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly.
| وَإِذْ رَمَّدَ مَدِينَتَيْ سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ، حَكَمَ عَلَيْهِمَا بِٱلِٱنْقِلَابِ، وَاضِعًا عِبْرَةً لِلْعَتِيدِينَ أَنْ يَفْجُرُوا، | ٦ 6 |
God also reduced the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes and condemned them to destruction, as an example of what is to happen to the ungodly.
| وَأَنْقَذَ لُوطًا ٱلْبَارَّ، مَغْلُوبًا مِنْ سِيرَةِ ٱلْأَرْدِيَاءِ فِي ٱلدَّعَارَةِ. | ٧ 7 |
But as for the righteous Lot, he was oppressed by the sensual behavior of lawless people.
| إِذْ كَانَ ٱلْبَارُّ، بِٱلنَّظَرِ وَٱلسَّمْعِ وَهُوَ سَاكِنٌ بَيْنَهُمْ، يُعَذِّبُ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا نَفْسَهُ ٱلْبَارَّةَ بِٱلْأَفْعَالِ ٱلْأَثِيمَةِ. | ٨ 8 |
So that righteous man, who was living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul because of what he saw and heard.
| يَعْلَمُ ٱلرَّبُّ أَنْ يُنْقِذَ ٱلْأَتْقِيَاءَ مِنَ ٱلتَّجْرِبَةِ، وَيَحْفَظَ ٱلْأَثَمَةَ إِلَى يَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ مُعَاقَبِينَ، | ٩ 9 |
The Lord knows how to rescue godly men out of trials, and how to hold unrighteous men for punishment at the day of judgment.
| وَلَا سِيَّمَا ٱلَّذِينَ يَذْهَبُونَ وَرَاءَ ٱلْجَسَدِ فِي شَهْوَةِ ٱلنَّجَاسَةِ، وَيَسْتَهِينُونَ بِٱلسِّيَادَةِ. جَسُورُونَ، مُعْجِبُونَ بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ، لَا يَرْتَعِبُونَ أَنْ يَفْتَرُوا عَلَى ذَوِي ٱلْأَمْجَادِ، | ١٠ 10 |
This is especially true for those who continue in the corrupt desires of the flesh and who despise authority. Bold and self-willed, they are not afraid to blaspheme the glorious ones.
| حَيْثُ مَلَائِكَةٌ- وَهُمْ أَعْظَمُ قُوَّةً وَقُدْرَةً - لَا يُقَدِّمُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ حُكْمَ ٱفْتِرَاءٍ. | ١١ 11 |
Angels have greater strength and power, but they do not bring insulting judgments against them to the Lord.
| أَمَّا هَؤُلَاءِ فَكَحَيَوَانَاتٍ غَيْرِ نَاطِقَةٍ، طَبِيعِيَّةٍ، مَوْلُودَةٍ لِلصَّيْدِ وَٱلْهَلَاكِ، يَفْتَرُونَ عَلَى مَا يَجْهَلُونَ، فَسَيَهْلِكُونَ فِي فَسَادِهِمْ، | ١٢ 12 |
But these unreasoning animals are naturally made for capture and destruction. They do not know what they insult. They will be destroyed.
| آخِذِينَ أُجْرَةَ ٱلْإِثْمِ. ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْسِبُونَ تَنَعُّمَ يَوْمٍ لَذَّةً. أَدْنَاسٌ وَعُيُوبٌ، يَتَنَعَّمُونَ فِي غُرُورِهِمْ صَانِعِينَ وَلَائِمَ مَعَكُمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
They will receive the reward of their wrongdoing. They think that luxury during the day is a pleasure. They are stains and blemishes. They enjoy their deceitful actions while they are feasting with you.
| لَهُمْ عُيُونٌ مَمْلُوَّةٌ فِسْقًا، لَا تَكُفُّ عَنِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ، خَادِعُونَ ٱلنُّفُوسَ غَيْرَ ٱلثَّابِتَةِ. لَهُمْ قَلْبٌ مُتَدَرِّبٌ فِي ٱلطَّمَعِ. أَوْلَادُ ٱللَّعْنَةِ. | ١٤ 14 |
They have eyes full of adultery, they are never satisfied with sin. They entice unstable souls into wrongdoing, and they have their hearts trained in covetousness. They are cursed children!
| قَدْ تَرَكُوا ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ، فَضَلُّوا، تَابِعِينَ طَرِيقَ بَلْعَامَ بْنِ بَصُورَ ٱلَّذِي أَحَبَّ أُجْرَةَ ٱلْإِثْمِ. | ١٥ 15 |
They have abandoned the right way and have wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Beor, who loved to receive payment for unrighteousness.
| وَلَكِنَّهُ حَصَلَ عَلَى تَوْبِيخِ تَعَدِّيهِ، إِذْ مَنَعَ حَمَاقَةَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ حِمَارٌ أَعْجَمُ نَاطِقًا بِصَوْتِ إِنْسَانٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
But he obtained a rebuke for his own transgression—a mute donkey speaking in a human voice stopped the prophet's insanity.
| هَؤُلَاءِ هُمْ آبَارٌ بِلَا مَاءٍ، غُيُومٌ يَسُوقُهَا ٱلنَّوْءُ. ٱلَّذِينَ قَدْ حُفِظَ لَهُمْ قَتَامُ ٱلظَّلَامِ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. (questioned) | ١٧ 17 |
These men are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. The gloom of thick darkness is reserved for them.
| لِأَنَّهُمْ إِذْ يَنْطِقُونَ بِعَظَائِمِ ٱلْبُطْلِ، يَخْدَعُونَ بِشَهَوَاتِ ٱلْجَسَدِ فِي ٱلدَّعَارَةِ، مَنْ هَرَبَ قَلِيلًا مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسِيرُونَ فِي ٱلضَّلَالِ، | ١٨ 18 |
They speak with vain arrogance. They entice people through the lusts of the flesh. They entice people who try to escape from those who live in error.
| وَاعِدِينَ إِيَّاهُمْ بِٱلْحُرِّيَّةِ، وَهُمْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ عَبِيدُ ٱلْفَسَادِ. لِأَنَّ مَا ٱنْغَلَبَ مِنْهُ أَحَدٌ، فَهُوَ لَهُ مُسْتَعْبَدٌ أَيْضًا! | ١٩ 19 |
They promise freedom to them, but they themselves are slaves of corruption. For a man is a slave to whatever overcomes him.
| لِأَنَّهُ إِذَا كَانُوا، بَعْدَمَا هَرَبُوا مِنْ نَجَاسَاتِ ٱلْعَالَمِ، بِمَعْرِفَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَٱلْمُخَلِّصِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، يَرْتَبِكُونَ أَيْضًا فِيهَا، فَيَنْغَلِبُونَ، فَقَدْ صَارَتْ لَهُمُ ٱلْأَوَاخِرُ أَشَرَّ مِنَ ٱلْأَوَائِلِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
If they have escaped the corruption of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.
| لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ لَوْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا طَرِيقَ ٱلْبِرِّ، مِنْ أَنَّهُمْ بَعْدَمَا عَرَفُوا، يَرْتَدُّونَ عَنِ ٱلْوَصِيَّةِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ ٱلْمُسَلَّمَةِ لَهُمْ. | ٢١ 21 |
It would have been better for them not to know the way of righteousness than to know it and turn away from the holy commandment delivered to them.
| قَدْ أَصَابَهُمْ مَا فِي ٱلْمَثَلِ ٱلصَّادِقِ: «كَلْبٌ قَدْ عَادَ إِلَى قَيْئِهِ»، وَ«خِنْزِيرَةٌ مُغْتَسِلَةٌ إِلَى مَرَاغَةِ ٱلْحَمْأَةِ». | ٢٢ 22 |
This proverb is true for them: “A dog returns to its own vomit, and a washed pig returns to the mud.”
