< أعمال 2 >

وَلَمَّا حَضَرَ يَوْمُ ٱلْخَمْسِينَ كَانَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ مَعًا بِنَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ، ١ 1
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together with one purpose.
وَصَارَ بَغْتَةً مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ صَوْتٌ كَمَا مِنْ هُبُوبِ رِيحٍ عَاصِفَةٍ وَمَلَأَ كُلَّ ٱلْبَيْتِ حَيْثُ كَانُوا جَالِسِينَ، ٢ 2
And suddenly a roar came out of the sky, like the rushing of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
وَظَهَرَتْ لَهُمْ أَلْسِنَةٌ مُنْقَسِمَةٌ كَأَنَّهَا مِنْ نَارٍ وَٱسْتَقَرَّتْ عَلَى كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ. ٣ 3
Fiery tongues appeared and were distributed to them, and it [a tongue] landed on each one of them.
وَٱمْتَلَأَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ، وَٱبْتَدَأُوا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِأَلْسِنَةٍ أُخْرَى كَمَا أَعْطَاهُمُ ٱلرُّوحُ أَنْ يَنْطِقُوا. ٤ 4
And they were all filled with Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages, as the Spirit was granting to them to speak out.
وَكَانَ يَهُودٌ رِجَالٌ أَتْقِيَاءُ مِنْ كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ تَحْتَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ سَاكِنِينَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ. ٥ 5
Now there were devout men, Jews, from every nation under heaven, dwelling in Jerusalem.
فَلَمَّا صَارَ هَذَا ٱلصَّوْتُ، ٱجْتَمَعَ ٱلْجُمْهُورُ وَتَحَيَّرُوا، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ كَانَ يَسْمَعُهُمْ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِلُغَتِهِ. ٦ 6
So when that roar occurred, the crowd came together, and was bewildered, because each one was hearing them speaking to him in his own dialect.
فَبُهِتَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ وَتَعَجَّبُوا قَائِلِينَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «أَتُرَى لَيْسَ جَمِيعُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْمُتَكَلِّمِينَ جَلِيلِيِّينَ؟ ٧ 7
So they were amazed and marveled, saying to one another: “Hey, aren't all these who are speaking Galileans?
فَكَيْفَ نَسْمَعُ نَحْنُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَّا لُغَتَهُ ٱلَّتِي وُلِدَ فِيهَا؟ ٨ 8
So how can each of us be hearing our own dialect in which we were born?
فَرْتِيُّونَ وَمَادِيُّونَ وَعِيلَامِيُّونَ، وَٱلسَّاكِنُونَ مَا بَيْنَ ٱلنَّهْرَيْنِ، وَٱلْيَهُودِيَّةَ وَكَبَّدُوكِيَّةَ وَبُنْتُسَ وَأَسِيَّا ٩ 9
Parthians and Medes and Elamites; those dwelling in Mesopotamia, in Judea and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Asia,
وَفَرِيجِيَّةَ وَبَمْفِيلِيَّةَ وَمِصْرَ، وَنَوَاحِيَ لِيبِيَّةَ ٱلَّتِي نَحْوَ ٱلْقَيْرَوَانِ، وَٱلرُّومَانِيُّونَ ٱلْمُسْتَوْطِنُونَ يَهُودٌ وَدُخَلَاءُ، ١٠ 10
in Phrygia and Pamphylia, in Egypt and the parts of Libya adjoining Cyrene; and visitors from Rome—both Jews and proselytes—
كِرِيتِيُّونَ وَعَرَبٌ، نَسْمَعُهُمْ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِأَلْسِنَتِنَا بِعَظَائِمِ ٱللهِ!». ١١ 11
Cretans and Arabians; we hear them declaring the great works of God in our own languages.”
فَتَحَيَّرَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ وَٱرْتَابُوا قَائِلِينَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «مَا عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ هَذَا؟». ١٢ 12
Yes they were all amazed and perplexed, saying one to another, “Whatever is going on?”
وَكَانَ آخَرُونَ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّهُمْ قَدِ ٱمْتَلَأُوا سُلَافَةً». ١٣ 13
But different ones were jeering, saying, “They are full of sweet wine!”
فَوَقَفَ بُطْرُسُ مَعَ ٱلْأَحَدَ عَشَرَ وَرَفَعَ صَوْتَهُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْيَهُودُ وَٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ أَجْمَعُونَ، لِيَكُنْ هَذَا مَعْلُومًا عِنْدَكُمْ وَأَصْغُوا إِلَى كَلَامِي، ١٤ 14
So Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and proclaimed to them: “Men—Jews and all who are dwelling in Jerusalem—let this be known to you; indeed, listen to my speech!
لِأَنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ لَيْسُوا سُكَارَى كَمَا أَنْتُمْ تَظُنُّونَ، لِأَنَّهَا ٱلسَّاعَةُ ٱلثَّالِثَةُ مِنَ ٱلنَّهَارِ. ١٥ 15
Because these are not drunk, as you suppose (since it is only the third hour of the day),
بَلْ هَذَا مَا قِيلَ بِيُوئِيلَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ: ١٦ 16
but this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
يَقُولُ ٱللهُ: وَيَكُونُ فِي ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْأَخِيرَةِ أَنِّي أَسْكُبُ مِنْ رُوحِي عَلَى كُلِّ بَشَرٍ، فَيَتَنَبَّأُ بَنُوكُمْ وَبَنَاتُكُمْ، وَيَرَى شَبَابُكُمْ رُؤًى وَيَحْلُمُ شُيُوخُكُمْ أَحْلَامًا. ١٧ 17
‘It will be in the last days, says God: I will pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh; your sons and your daughters will prophesy; your young men will see visions; your old men will dream a dream.
وَعَلَى عَبِيدِي أَيْضًا وَإِمَائِي أَسْكُبُ مِنْ رُوحِي فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ فَيَتَنَبَّأُونَ. ١٨ 18
In those days I will indeed pour out from my Spirit upon my male slaves and upon my female slaves, and they will prophesy.
وَأُعْطِي عَجَائِبَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ مِنْ فَوْقُ وَآيَاتٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ أَسْفَلُ: دَمًا وَنَارًا وَبُخَارَ دُخَانٍ. ١٩ 19
I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below: blood and fire and smoke vapor.
تَتَحَوَّلُ ٱلشَّمْسُ إِلَى ظُلْمَةٍ وَٱلْقَمَرُ إِلَى دَمٍ، قَبْلَ أَنْ يَجِيءَ يَوْمُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْعَظِيمُ ٱلشَّهِيرُ. ٢٠ 20
The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into ‘blood’ before the great and glorious day of the Lord will come.
وَيَكُونُ كُلُّ مَنْ يَدْعُو بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ يَخْلُصُ. ٢١ 21
And it will be: whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved!’
«أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ ٱسْمَعُوا هَذِهِ ٱلْأَقْوَالَ: يَسُوعُ ٱلنَّاصِرِيُّ رَجُلٌ قَدْ تَبَرْهَنَ لَكُمْ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱللهِ بِقُوَّاتٍ وَعَجَائِبَ وَآيَاتٍ صَنَعَهَا ٱللهُ بِيَدِهِ فِي وَسْطِكُمْ، كَمَا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا تَعْلَمُونَ. ٢٢ 22
“Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Natsorean, a man from God attested to you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by Him in your midst, as you yourselves well know,
هَذَا أَخَذْتُمُوهُ مُسَلَّمًا بِمَشُورَةِ ٱللهِ ٱلْمَحْتُومَةِ وَعِلْمِهِ ٱلسَّابِقِ، وَبِأَيْدِي أَثَمَةٍ صَلَبْتُمُوهُ وَقَتَلْتُمُوهُ. ٢٣ 23
Him—being delivered up by the established purpose and foreknowledge of God—you murdered, having taken Him with lawless hands and crucified Him;
اَلَّذِي أَقَامَهُ ٱللهُ نَاقِضًا أَوْجَاعَ ٱلْمَوْتِ، إِذْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مُمْكِنًا أَنْ يُمْسَكَ مِنْهُ. ٢٤ 24
whom God raised up, ending the labor pains of death, because it was not possible that He should be held by it.
لِأَنَّ دَاوُدَ يَقُولُ فِيهِ: كُنْتُ أَرَى ٱلرَّبَّ أَمَامِي فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ، أَنَّهُ عَنْ يَمِينِي، لِكَيْ لَا أَتَزَعْزَعَ. ٢٥ 25
For David says concerning Him: ‘I always saw the Lord before my face, because He is at my right side so that I not be shaken.
لِذَلِكَ سُرَّ قَلْبِي وَتَهَلَّلَ لِسَانِي. حَتَّى جَسَدِي أَيْضًا سَيَسْكُنُ عَلَى رَجَاءٍ. ٢٦ 26
Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue rejoiced. Furthermore, even my flesh will repose upon hope,
لِأَنَّكَ لَنْ تَتْرُكَ نَفْسِي فِي ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ وَلَا تَدَعَ قُدُّوسَكَ يَرَى فَسَادًا. (Hadēs g86) ٢٧ 27
because You will not abandon my soul in Hades, nor will You allow Your Holy One to see decay. (Hadēs g86)
عَرَّفْتَنِي سُبُلَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ وَسَتَمْلَأُنِي سُرُورًا مَعَ وَجْهِكَ. ٢٨ 28
You have made known to me roads of life; with Your presence You make me full of gladness.’
أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، يَسُوغُ أَنْ يُقَالَ لَكُمْ جِهَارًا عَنْ رَئِيسِ ٱلْآبَاءِ دَاوُدَ إِنَّهُ مَاتَ وَدُفِنَ، وَقَبْرُهُ عِنْدَنَا حَتَّى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ٢٩ 29
“Men, brothers, be it permitted to speak to you plainly about the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
فَإِذْ كَانَ نَبِيًّا، وَعَلِمَ أَنَّ ٱللهَ حَلَفَ لَهُ بِقَسَمٍ أَنَّهُ مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ صُلْبِهِ يُقِيمُ ٱلْمَسِيحَ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ لِيَجْلِسَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ، ٣٠ 30
So then, he being a prophet and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath that of the fruit, according to flesh, of his loins He would raise up the Messiah to sit on his throne,
سَبَقَ فَرَأَى وَتَكَلَّمَ عَنْ قِيَامَةِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، أَنَّهُ لَمْ تُتْرَكْ نَفْسُهُ فِي ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ وَلَا رَأَى جَسَدُهُ فَسَادًا. (Hadēs g86) ٣١ 31
he foreseeing this spoke about the resurrection of the Messiah, that His soul was not abandoned in Hades, nor did His flesh see decay. (Hadēs g86)
فَيَسُوعُ هَذَا أَقَامَهُ ٱللهُ، وَنَحْنُ جَمِيعًا شُهُودٌ لِذَلِكَ. ٣٢ 32
“This Jesus God raised, to which we all are witnesses.
وَإِذِ ٱرْتَفَعَ بِيَمِينِ ٱللهِ، وَأَخَذَ مَوْعِدَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ مِنَ ٱلْآبِ، سَكَبَ هَذَا ٱلَّذِي أَنْتُمُ ٱلْآنَ تُبْصِرُونَهُ وَتَسْمَعُونَهُ. ٣٣ 33
Therefore, having been exalted to God's right hand, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this that you now see and hear.
لِأَنَّ دَاوُدَ لَمْ يَصْعَدْ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ. وَهُوَ نَفْسُهُ يَقُولُ: قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِرَبِّي: ٱجْلِسْ عَنْ يَمِينِي ٣٤ 34
Further, David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says: ‘The Lord said to my Lord: Sit at my right hand
حَتَّى أَضَعَ أَعْدَاءَكَ مَوْطِئًا لِقَدَمَيْكَ. ٣٥ 35
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.’
فَلْيَعْلَمْ يَقِينًا جَمِيعُ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّ ٱللهَ جَعَلَ يَسُوعَ هَذَا، ٱلَّذِي صَلَبْتُمُوهُ أَنْتُمْ، رَبًّا وَمَسِيحًا». ٣٦ 36
Therefore, let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made Him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified!”
فَلَمَّا سَمِعُوا نُخِسُوا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ، وَقَالُوا لِبُطْرُسَ وَلِسَائِرِ ٱلرُّسُلِ: «مَاذَا نَصْنَعُ أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِخْوَةُ؟». ٣٧ 37
Now upon hearing this they were cut to the heart and said to Peter, and the rest of the Apostles, “Men, brothers, what shall we do?!”
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ بُطْرُسُ: «تُوبُوا وَلْيَعْتَمِدْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ عَلَى ٱسْمِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ لِغُفْرَانِ ٱلْخَطَايَا، فَتَقْبَلُوا عَطِيَّةَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ. ٣٨ 38
So Peter said to them: “Repent and be baptized, each one of you, upon the name of Jesus Christ, for forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
لِأَنَّ ٱلْمَوْعِدَ هُوَ لَكُمْ وَلِأَوْلَادِكُمْ وَلِكُلِّ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى بُعْدٍ، كُلِّ مَنْ يَدْعُوهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا». ٣٩ 39
For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all who are far away—as many, that is, as the Lord our God may call.”
وَبِأَقْوَالٍ أُخَرَ كَثِيرَةٍ كَانَ يَشْهَدُ لَهُمْ وَيَعِظُهُمْ قَائِلًا: «ٱخْلُصُوا مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلْمُلْتَوِي». ٤٠ 40
With many different words he both testified and kept exhorting, saying, “Escape from this perverse generation!”
فَقَبِلُوا كَلَامَهُ بِفَرَحٍ، وَٱعْتَمَدُوا، وَٱنْضَمَّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ نَحْوُ ثَلَاثَةِ آلَافِ نَفْسٍ. ٤١ 41
Then those who gladly received his word were baptized, and that day about three thousand souls were added.
وَكَانُوا يُواظِبُونَ عَلَى تَعْلِيمِ ٱلرُّسُلِ، وَٱلشَّرِكَةِ، وَكَسْرِ ٱلْخُبْزِ، وَٱلصَّلَوَاتِ. ٤٢ 42
And they continued steadfastly in the Apostles' teaching and in the fellowship, both in the breaking of the bread and in the prayers.
وَصَارَ خَوْفٌ فِي كُلِّ نَفْسٍ. وَكَانَتْ عَجَائِبُ وَآيَاتٌ كَثِيرَةٌ تُجْرَى عَلَى أَيْدِي ٱلرُّسُلِ. ٤٣ 43
Fear came upon every soul—many wonders and signs were taking place through the Apostles.
وَجَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا كَانُوا مَعًا، وَكَانَ عِنْدَهُمْ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مُشْتَرَكًا. ٤٤ 44
Now all who believed were together and had all things in common;
وَٱلْأَمْلَاكُ وَٱلْمُقْتَنَيَاتُ كَانُوا يَبِيعُونَهَا وَيَقْسِمُونَهَا بَيْنَ ٱلْجَمِيعِ، كَمَا يَكُونُ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ ٱحْتِيَاجٌ. ٤٥ 45
they started selling both possessions and goods and were distributing to all according as anyone had need.
وَكَانُوا كُلَّ يَوْمٍ يُواظِبُونَ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ بِنَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ. وَإِذْ هُمْ يَكْسِرُونَ ٱلْخُبْزَ فِي ٱلْبُيُوتِ، كَانُوا يَتَنَاوَلُونَ ٱلطَّعَامَ بِٱبْتِهَاجٍ وَبَسَاطَةِ قَلْبٍ، ٤٦ 46
So day by day they continued steadfastly with one purpose in the temple and broke bread from house to house; they received their share of food with gladness and singleness of heart,
مُسَبِّحِينَ ٱللهَ، وَلَهُمْ نِعْمَةٌ لَدَى جَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ يَضُمُّ إِلَى ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخْلُصُونَ. ٤٧ 47
praising God and having favor with all the people. And day by day the Lord added to the Church those who were being saved.
