< رُوما 13 >
لِتَخْضَعْ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لِلسَّلَاطِينِ ٱلْفَائِقَةِ، لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ سُلْطَانٌ إِلَّا مِنَ ٱللهِ، وَٱلسَّلَاطِينُ ٱلْكَائِنَةُ هِيَ مُرَتَّبَةٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ، | ١ 1 |
Let every soul be subject to the higher powers. For there is no power but from God: the powers that are, are ordained by God.
حَتَّى إِنَّ مَنْ يُقَاوِمُ ٱلسُّلْطَانَ يُقَاوِمُ تَرْتِيبَ ٱللهِ، وَٱلْمُقَاوِمُونَ سَيَأْخُذُونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ دَيْنُونَةً. | ٢ 2 |
Whoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
فَإِنَّ ٱلْحُكَّامَ لَيْسُوا خَوْفًا لِلْأَعْمَالِ ٱلصَّالِحَةِ بَلْ لِلشِّرِّيرَةِ. أَفَتُرِيدُ أَنْ لَا تَخَافَ ٱلسُّلْطَانَ؟ ٱفْعَلِ ٱلصَّلَاحَ فَيَكُونَ لَكَ مَدْحٌ مِنْهُ، | ٣ 3 |
For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power; do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same:
لِأَنَّهُ خَادِمُ ٱللهِ لِلصَّلَاحِ! وَلَكِنْ إِنْ فَعَلْتَ ٱلشَّرَّ فَخَفْ، لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَحْمِلُ ٱلسَّيْفَ عَبَثًا، إِذْ هُوَ خَادِمُ ٱللهِ، مُنْتَقِمٌ لِلْغَضَبِ مِنَ ٱلَّذِي يَفْعَلُ ٱلشَّرَّ. | ٤ 4 |
For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou doest that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, an avenger to [execute] wrath upon him that doeth evil.
لِذَلِكَ يَلْزَمُ أَنْ يُخْضَعَ لَهُ، لَيْسَ بِسَبَبِ ٱلْغَضَبِ فَقَطْ، بَلْ أَيْضًا بِسَبَبِ ٱلضَّمِيرِ. | ٥ 5 |
Wherefore [ye] must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
فَإِنَّكُمْ لِأَجْلِ هَذَا تُوفُونَ ٱلْجِزْيَةَ أَيْضًا، إِذْ هُمْ خُدَّامُ ٱللهِ مُوَاظِبُونَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ بِعَيْنِهِ. | ٦ 6 |
For, for this cause ye pay tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
فَأَعْطُوا ٱلْجَمِيعَ حُقُوقَهُمُ: ٱلْجِزْيَةَ لِمَنْ لَهُ ٱلْجِزْيَةُ. ٱلْجِبَايَةَ لِمَنْ لَهُ ٱلْجِبَايَةُ. وَٱلْخَوْفَ لِمَنْ لَهُ ٱلْخَوْفُ. وَٱلْإِكْرَامَ لِمَنْ لَهُ ٱلْإِكْرَامُ. | ٧ 7 |
Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute [is due]; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.
لَا تَكُونُوا مَدْيُونِينَ لِأَحَدٍ بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا بِأَنْ يُحِبَّ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا، لِأَنَّ مَنْ أَحَبَّ غَيْرَهُ فَقَدْ أَكْمَلَ ٱلنَّامُوسَ. | ٨ 8 |
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
لِأَنَّ «لَا تَزْنِ، لَا تَقْتُلْ، لَا تَسْرِقْ، لَا تَشْهَدْ بِٱلزُّورِ، لَا تَشْتَهِ»، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ وَصِيَّةً أُخْرَى، هِيَ مَجْمُوعَةٌ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَةِ: «أَنْ تُحِبَّ قَرِيبَكَ كَنَفْسِكَ». | ٩ 9 |
For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there is] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
اَلْمَحَبَّةُ لَا تَصْنَعُ شَرًّا لِلْقَرِيبِ، فَٱلْمَحَبَّةُ هِيَ تَكْمِيلُ ٱلنَّامُوسِ. | ١٠ 10 |
Love worketh no ill to one's neighbor: therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law.
هَذَا وَإِنَّكُمْ عَارِفُونَ ٱلْوَقْتَ، أَنَّهَا ٱلْآنَ سَاعَةٌ لِنَسْتَيْقِظَ مِنَ ٱلنَّوْمِ، فَإِنَّ خَلَاصَنَا ٱلْآنَ أَقْرَبُ مِمَّا كَانَ حِينَ آمَنَّا. | ١١ 11 |
And this, knowing the time, that now [it is] high time to awake out of sleep: for now [is] our salvation nearer than when we believed.
قَدْ تَنَاهَى ٱللَّيْلُ وَتَقَارَبَ ٱلنَّهَارُ، فَلْنَخْلَعْ أَعْمَالَ ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَنَلْبَسْ أَسْلِحَةَ ٱلنُّورِ. | ١٢ 12 |
The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.
لِنَسْلُكْ بِلِيَاقَةٍ كَمَا فِي ٱلنَّهَارِ: لَا بِٱلْبَطَرِ وَٱلسُّكْرِ، لَا بِٱلْمَضَاجِعِ وَٱلْعَهَرِ، لَا بِٱلْخِصَامِ وَٱلْحَسَدِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
بَلِ ٱلْبَسُوا ٱلرَّبَّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحَ، وَلَا تَصْنَعُوا تَدْبِيرًا لِلْجَسَدِ لِأَجْلِ ٱلشَّهَوَاتِ. | ١٤ 14 |
But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the lusts of flesh.
