أعمال 13
| وَكَانَ فِي أَنْطَاكِيَةَ فِي ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ هُنَاكَ أَنْبِيَاءُ وَمُعَلِّمُونَ: بَرْنَابَا، وَسِمْعَانُ ٱلَّذِي يُدْعَى نِيجَرَ، وَلُوكِيُوسُ ٱلْقَيْرَوَانِيُّ، وَمَنَايِنُ ٱلَّذِي تَرَبَّى مَعَ هِيرُودُسَ رَئِيسِ ٱلرُّبْعِ، وَشَاوُلُ. | ١ 1 |
Now in the church in Antioch, there were some prophets and teachers. They were Barnabas, Simeon (who is called Niger), Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen (the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch), and Saul.
| وَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَخْدِمُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ وَيَصُومُونَ، قَالَ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ: «أَفْرِزُوا لِي بَرْنَابَا وَشَاوُلَ لِلْعَمَلِ ٱلَّذِي دَعَوْتُهُمَا إِلَيْهِ». | ٢ 2 |
While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul, to do the work to which I have called them.”
| فَصَامُوا حِينَئِذٍ وَصَلُّوا وَوَضَعُوا عَلَيْهِمَا ٱلْأَيَادِيَ، ثُمَّ أَطْلَقُوهُمَا. | ٣ 3 |
After they had fasted, prayed, and laid their hands on these men, they sent them off.
| فَهَذَانِ إِذْ أُرْسِلَا مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ ٱنْحَدَرَا إِلَى سَلُوكِيَةَ، وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ سَافَرَا فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ إِلَى قُبْرُسَ. | ٤ 4 |
So Barnabas and Saul obeyed the Holy Spirit and went down to Seleucia; from there they sailed to the island of Cyprus.
| وَلَمَّا صَارَا فِي سَلَامِيسَ نَادَيَا بِكَلِمَةِ ٱللهِ فِي مَجَامِعِ ٱلْيَهُودِ. وَكَانَ مَعَهُمَا يُوحَنَّا خَادِمًا. | ٥ 5 |
When they were in the city of Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. They also had John Mark as their assistant.
| وَلَمَّا ٱجْتَازَا ٱلْجَزِيرَةَ إِلَى بَافُوسَ، وَجَدَا رَجُلًا سَاحِرًا نَبِيًّا كَذَّابًا يَهُودِيًّا ٱسْمُهُ بَارْيَشُوعُ، | ٦ 6 |
When they had gone through the whole island to Paphos, they found a certain magician, a Jewish false prophet, whose name was Bar Jesus.
| كَانَ مَعَ ٱلْوَالِي سَرْجِيُوسَ بُولُسَ، وَهُوَ رَجُلٌ فَهِيمٌ. فَهَذَا دَعَا بَرْنَابَا وَشَاوُلَ وَٱلْتَمَسَ أَنْ يَسْمَعَ كَلِمَةَ ٱللهِ. | ٧ 7 |
This magician associated with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, who was an intelligent man. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul, because he wanted to hear the word of God.
| فَقَاوَمَهُمَا عَلِيمٌ ٱلسَّاحِرُ، لِأَنْ هَكَذَا يُتَرْجَمُ ٱسْمُهُ، طَالِبًا أَنْ يُفْسِدَ ٱلْوَالِيَ عَنِ ٱلْإِيمَانِ. | ٨ 8 |
But Elymas “the magician” (that is how his name is translated) opposed them; he tried to turn the proconsul away from the faith.
| وَأَمَّا شَاوُلُ، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ بُولُسُ أَيْضًا، فَٱمْتَلَأَ مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ وَشَخَصَ إِلَيْهِ | ٩ 9 |
But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, stared at him intensely.
| وَقَالَ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُمْتَلِئُ كُلَّ غِشٍّ وَكُلَّ خُبْثٍ! يَا ٱبْنَ إِبْلِيسَ! يَاعَدُوَّ كُلِّ بِرٍّ! أَلَا تَزَالُ تُفْسِدُ سُبُلَ ٱللهِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَةَ؟ | ١٠ 10 |
and said, “You son of the devil, you are full of all kinds of deceit and wickedness. You are an enemy of every kind of righteousness. You will never stop twisting the straight paths of the Lord, will you?
| فَٱلْآنَ هُوَذَا يَدُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْكَ، فَتَكُونُ أَعْمَى لَا تُبْصِرُ ٱلشَّمْسَ إِلَى حِينٍ». فَفِي ٱلْحَالِ سَقَطَ عَلَيْهِ ضَبَابٌ وَظُلْمَةٌ، فَجَعَلَ يَدُورُ مُلْتَمِسًا مَنْ يَقُودُهُ بِيَدِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
Now look, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will become blind. You will not see the sun for a while.” Immediately there fell on Elymas a mist and darkness; he started going around asking people to lead him by the hand.
| فَٱلْوَالِي حِينَئِذٍ لَمَّا رَأَى مَا جَرَى، آمَنَ مُنْدَهِشًا مِنْ تَعْلِيمِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١٢ 12 |
After the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, because he was astonished at the teaching about the Lord.
| ثُمَّ أَقْلَعَ مِنْ بَافُوسَ بُولُسُ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى بَرْجَةِ بَمْفِيلِيَّةَ. وَأَمَّا يُوحَنَّا فَفَارَقَهُمْ وَرَجَعَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ١٣ 13 |
Now Paul and his friends set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. But John left them and returned to Jerusalem.
| وَأَمَّا هُمْ فَجَازُوا مِنْ بَرْجَةَ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى أَنْطَاكِيَةِ بِيسِيدِيَّةَ، وَدَخَلُوا ٱلْمَجْمَعَ يَوْمَ ٱلسَّبْتِ وَجَلَسُوا. | ١٤ 14 |
Paul and his friends traveled from Perga and came to Antioch of Pisidia. There they went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day and sat down.
| وَبَعْدَ قِرَاءَةِ ٱلنَّامُوسِ وَٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ، أَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمْ رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْمَجْمَعِ قَائِلِينَ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، إِنْ كَانَتْ عِنْدَكُمْ كَلِمَةُ وَعْظٍ لِلشَّعْبِ فَقُولُوا». | ١٥ 15 |
After the reading of the law and the prophets, the leaders of the synagogue sent them a message saying, “Brothers, if you have any message of encouragement for the people here, say it.”
| فَقَامَ بُولُسُ وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ وَقَالَ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ وَٱلَّذِينَ يَتَّقُونَ ٱللهَ، ٱسْمَعُوا! | ١٦ 16 |
So Paul stood up and motioned with his hand; he said, “Men of Israel and you who honor God, listen.
| إِلَهُ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ هَذَا ٱخْتَارَ آبَاءَنَا، وَرَفَعَ ٱلشَّعْبَ فِي ٱلْغُرْبَةِ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَبِذِرَاعٍ مُرْتَفِعَةٍ أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنْهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
The God of this people Israel chose our fathers and made the people numerous when they stayed in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm he led them out of it.
| وَنَحْوَ مُدَّةِ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، ٱحْتَمَلَ عَوَائِدَهُمْ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ١٨ 18 |
For about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.
| ثُمَّ أَهْلَكَ سَبْعَ أُمَمٍ فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ وَقَسَمَ لَهُمْ أَرْضَهُمْ بِٱلْقُرْعَةِ. | ١٩ 19 |
After he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave our people their land for an inheritance.
| وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فِي نَحْوِ أَرْبَعَمِئَةٍ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً أَعْطَاهُمْ قُضَاةً حَتَّى صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ. | ٢٠ 20 |
All these events took place over four hundred and fifty years. After all these things, God gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.
| وَمِنْ ثَمَّ طَلَبُوا مَلِكًا، فَأَعْطَاهُمُ ٱللهُ شَاوُلَ بْنَ قَيْسٍ، رَجُلًا مِنْ سِبْطِ بِنْيَامِينَ، أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. | ٢١ 21 |
Then the people asked for a king, and God gave them Saul son of Kish, a man from the tribe of Benjamin, to be king for forty years.
| ثُمَّ عَزَلَهُ وَأَقَامَ لَهُمْ دَاوُدَ مَلِكًا، ٱلَّذِي شَهِدَ لَهُ أَيْضًا، إِذْ قَالَ: وَجَدْتُ دَاوُدَ بْنَ يَسَّى رَجُلًا حَسَبَ قَلْبِي، ٱلَّذِي سَيَصْنَعُ كُلَّ مَشِيئَتِي. | ٢٢ 22 |
After God removed him from the kingship, he raised up David to be their king. It was about David that God said, 'I have found David son of Jesse to be a man after my heart, who does all I want him to do.'
| مِنْ نَسْلِ هَذَا، حَسَبَ ٱلْوَعْدِ، أَقَامَ ٱللهُ لإِسْرَائِيلَ مُخَلِّصًا، يَسُوعَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
From this man's descendants God has brought to Israel a savior, Jesus, as he promised to do.
| إِذْ سَبَقَ يُوحَنَّا فَكَرَزَ قَبْلَ مَجِيئِهِ بِمَعْمُودِيَّةِ ٱلتَّوْبَةِ لِجَمِيعِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
This began to happen when, before Jesus came, John first announced the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
| وَلَمَّا صَارَ يُوحَنَّا يُكَمِّلُ سَعْيَهُ جَعَلَ يَقُولُ: مَنْ تَظُنُّونَ أَنِّي أَنَا؟ لَسْتُ أَنَا إِيَّاهُ، لَكِنْ هُوَذَا يَأْتِي بَعْدِي ٱلَّذِي لَسْتُ مُسْتَحِقًّا أَنْ أَحُلَّ حِذَاءَ قَدَمَيْهِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
As John was finishing his work, he said, 'Who do you think I am? I am not the one. But listen, one is coming after me, the shoes of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'
| «أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِخْوَةُ بَنِي جِنْسِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَٱلَّذِينَ بَيْنَكُمْ يَتَّقُونَ ٱللهَ، إِلَيْكُمْ أُرْسِلَتْ كَلِمَةُ هَذَا ٱلْخَلَاصِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Brothers, children of the line of Abraham, and those among you who worship God, it is to us that the message about this salvation has been sent.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ وَرُؤَسَاءَهُمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا هَذَا. وَأَقْوَالُ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلَّتِي تُقْرَأُ كُلَّ سَبْتٍ تَمَّمُوهَا، إِذْ حَكَمُوا عَلَيْهِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
For they who live in Jerusalem, and their rulers, did not recognize him, and they fulfilled sayings of the prophets that are read every Sabbath by condemning him.
| وَمَعْ أَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَجِدُوا عِلَّةً وَاحِدَةً لِلْمَوْتِ طَلَبُوا مِنْ بِيلَاطُسَ أَنْ يُقْتَلَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Even though they found no good cause for death in him, they asked Pilate to kill him.
| وَلَمَّا تَمَّمُوا كُلَّ مَا كُتِبَ عَنْهُ، أَنْزَلُوهُ عَنِ ٱلْخَشَبَةِ وَوَضَعُوهُ فِي قَبْرٍ. | ٢٩ 29 |
When they had completed all the things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.
| وَلَكِنَّ ٱللهَ أَقَامَهُ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
But God raised him from the dead.
| وَظَهَرَ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً لِلَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا مَعَهُ مِنَ ٱلْجَلِيلِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ شُهُودُهُ عِنْدَ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ٣١ 31 |
He was seen for many days by those who had come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem. These people are now his witnesses to the people.
| وَنَحْنُ نُبَشِّرُكُمْ بِٱلْمَوْعِدِ ٱلَّذِي صَارَ لِآبَائِنَا، | ٣٢ 32 |
So we are telling you the good news that what God promised to our fathers
| إِنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ أَكْمَلَ هَذَا لَنَا نَحْنُ أَوْلَادَهُمْ، إِذْ أَقَامَ يَسُوعَ كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ أَيْضًا فِي ٱلْمَزْمُورِ ٱلثَّانِي: أَنْتَ ٱبْنِي، أَنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ وَلَدْتُكَ. | ٣٣ 33 |
he has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus. As it is written in the second Psalm: 'You are my Son, today I have become your Father.'
| إِنَّهُ أَقَامَهُ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ، غَيْرَ عَتِيدٍ أَنْ يَعُودَ أَيْضًا إِلَى فَسَادٍ، فَهَكَذَا قَالَ: إِنِّي سَأُعْطِيكُمْ مَرَاحِمَ دَاوُدَ ٱلصَّادِقَةَ. | ٣٤ 34 |
The fact that he raised him up from the dead so that his body would never decay, God has spoken in this way: 'I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.'
| وَلِذَلِكَ قَالَ أَيْضًا فِي مَزْمُورٍ آخَرَ: لَنْ تَدَعَ قُدُّوسَكَ يَرَى فَسَادًا. | ٣٥ 35 |
This is why he also says in another Psalm, 'You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.'
| لِأَنَّ دَاوُدَ بَعْدَ مَا خَدَمَ جِيلَهُ بِمَشُورَةِ ٱللهِ، رَقَدَ وَٱنْضَمَّ إِلَى آبَائِهِ، وَرَأَى فَسَادًا. | ٣٦ 36 |
For when David had served the desires of God in his own generation, he fell asleep; he was laid with his fathers and his body experienced decay.
| وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِي أَقَامَهُ ٱللهُ فَلَمْ يَرَ فَسَادًا. | ٣٧ 37 |
But he whom God raised up experienced no decay.
| فَلْيَكُنْ مَعْلُومًا عِنْدَكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، أَنَّهُ بِهَذَا يُنَادَى لَكُمْ بِغُفْرَانِ ٱلْخَطَايَا، | ٣٨ 38 |
So let it be known to you, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you forgiveness of sins.
| وَبِهَذَا يَتَبَرَّرُ كُلُّ مَنْ يُؤْمِنُ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا لَمْ تَقْدِرُوا أَنْ تَتَبَرَّرُوا مِنْهُ بِنَامُوسِ مُوسَى. | ٣٩ 39 |
By him every one who believes is justified from all the things which the law of Moses could not justify you.
| فَٱنْظُرُوا لِئَلَّا يَأْتِيَ عَلَيْكُمْ مَا قِيلَ فِي ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ: | ٤٠ 40 |
So then be careful that the thing the prophets spoke about does not happen to you:
| اُنْظُرُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُتَهَاوِنُونَ، وَتَعَجَّبُوا وَٱهْلِكُوا! لِأَنَّنِي عَمَلًا أَعْمَلُ فِي أَيَّامِكُمْ. عَمَلًا لَا تُصَدِّقُونَ إِنْ أَخْبَرَكُمْ أَحَدٌ بِهِ». | ٤١ 41 |
'Look, you despisers, and be astonished and then perish; For I am doing a work in your days, A work that you shall never believe, even if someone announces it to you.'”
| وَبَعْدَمَا خَرَجَ ٱلْيَهُودُ مِنَ ٱلْمَجْمَعِ جَعَلَ ٱلْأُمَمُ يَطْلُبُونَ إِلَيْهِمَا أَنْ يُكَلِّمَاهُمْ بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ فِي ٱلسَّبْتِ ٱلْقَادِمِ. | ٤٢ 42 |
As Paul and Barnabas left, the people begged them that they might speak these same words again the next Sabbath.
| وَلَمَّا ٱنْفَضَّتِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةُ، تَبِعَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلْيَهُودِ وَٱلدُّخَلَاءِ ٱلْمُتَعَبِّدِينَ بُولُسَ وَبَرْنَابَا، ٱللَّذَيْنِ كَانَا يُكَلِّمَانِهِمْ وَيُقْنِعَانِهِمْ أَنْ يَثْبُتُوا فِي نِعْمَةِ ٱللهِ. | ٤٣ 43 |
When the synagogue meeting ended, many of the Jews and devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who spoke to them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.
| وَفِي ٱلسَّبْتِ ٱلتَّالِي ٱجْتَمَعَتْ كُلُّ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ تَقْرِيبًا لِتَسْمَعَ كَلِمَةَ ٱللهِ. | ٤٤ 44 |
On the next Sabbath, almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of the Lord.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى ٱلْيَهُودُ ٱلْجُمُوعَ ٱمْتَلَأُوا غَيْرَةً، وَجَعَلُوا يُقَاوِمُونَ مَا قَالَهُ بُولُسُ مُنَاقِضِينَ وَمُجَدِّفِينَ. | ٤٥ 45 |
When the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and spoke against the things that were said by Paul and insulted him.
| فَجَاهَرَ بُولُسُ وَبَرْنَابَا وَقَالَا: «كَانَ يَجِبُ أَنْ تُكَلَّمُوا أَنْتُمْ أَوَّلًا بِكَلِمَةِ ٱللهِ، وَلَكِنْ إِذْ دَفَعْتُمُوهَا عَنْكُمْ، وَحَكَمْتُمْ أَنَّكُمْ غَيْرُ مُسْتَحِقِّينَ لِلْحَيَاةِ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةِ، هُوَذَا نَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَى ٱلْأُمَمِ. (aiōnios g166) | ٤٦ 46 |
But Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and said, “It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you. Seeing you push it away from yourselves and consider yourselves unworthy of eternal life, see, we will turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
| لِأَنْ هَكَذَا أَوْصَانَا ٱلرَّبُّ: قَدْ أَقَمْتُكَ نُورًا لِلْأُمَمِ، لِتَكُونَ أَنْتَ خَلَاصًا إِلَى أَقْصَى ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ٤٧ 47 |
For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, 'I have placed you as a light for the Gentiles, that you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.'”
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْأُمَمُ ذَلِكَ كَانُوا يَفْرَحُونَ وَيُمَجِّدُونَ كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ. وَآمَنَ جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مُعَيَّنِينَ لِلْحَيَاةِ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةِ. (aiōnios g166) | ٤٨ 48 |
As the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and praised the word of the Lord. As many as were appointed to eternal life believed. (aiōnios g166)
| وَٱنْتَشَرَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي كُلِّ ٱلْكُورَةِ. | ٤٩ 49 |
The word of the Lord was spread out through the whole region.
| وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْيَهُودَ حَرَّكُوا ٱلنِّسَاءَ ٱلْمُتَعَبِّدَاتِ ٱلشَّرِيفَاتِ وَوُجُوهَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَأَثَارُوا ٱضْطِهَادًا عَلَى بُولُسَ وَبَرْنَابَا، وَأَخْرَجُوهُمَا مِنْ تُخُومِهِمْ. | ٥٠ 50 |
But the Jews urged on the devout and important women, as well as the leading men of the city. These stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas and threw them out beyond the border of their city.
| أَمَّا هُمَا فَنَفَضَا غُبَارَ أَرْجُلِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمْ، وَأَتَيَا إِلَى إِيقُونِيَةَ. | ٥١ 51 |
But Paul and Barnabas shook off the dust from their feet against them. Then they went to the city of Iconium.
| وَأَمَّا ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ فَكَانُوا يَمْتَلِئُونَ مِنَ ٱلْفَرَحِ وَٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ. | ٥٢ 52 |
And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
