< تِيطُس 1 >

بُولُسُ، عَبْدُ ٱللهِ، وَرَسُولُ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، لِأَجْلِ إِيمَانِ مُخْتَارِي ٱللهِ وَمَعْرِفَةِ ٱلْحَقِّ، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ حَسَبُ ٱلتَّقْوَى، ١ 1
Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the faith of God's chosen people and the knowledge of the truth that agrees with godliness,
عَلَى رَجَاءِ ٱلْحَيَاةِ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةِ، ٱلَّتِي وَعَدَ بِهَا ٱللهُ ٱلْمُنَزَّهُ عَنِ ٱلْكَذِبِ، قَبْلَ ٱلْأَزْمِنَةِ ٱلْأَزَلِيَّةِ، (aiōnios g166) ٢ 2
with the certain hope of everlasting life that God, who does not lie, promised before all the ages of time. (aiōnios g166)
وَإِنَّمَا أَظْهَرَ كَلِمَتَهُ فِي أَوْقَاتِهَا ٱلْخَاصَّةِ، بِٱلْكِرَازَةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱؤْتُمِنْتُ أَنَا عَلَيْهَا، بِحَسَبِ أَمْرِ مُخَلِّصِنَا ٱللهِ، ٣ 3
At the right time, he revealed his word by the message that he trusted me to deliver. I was to do this by the command of God our savior.
إِلَى تِيطُسَ، ٱلِٱبْنِ ٱلصَّرِيحِ حَسَبَ ٱلْإِيمَانِ ٱلْمُشْتَرَكِ: نِعْمَةٌ وَرَحْمَةٌ وَسَلَامٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ ٱلْآبِ وَٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ مُخَلِّصِنَا. ٤ 4
To Titus, a true son in our common faith. Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our savior.
مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا تَرَكْتُكَ فِي كِرِيتَ لِكَيْ تُكَمِّلَ تَرْتِيبَ ٱلْأُمُورِ ٱلنَّاقِصَةِ، وَتُقِيمَ فِي كُلِّ مَدِينَةٍ شُيُوخًا كَمَا أَوْصَيْتُكَ. ٥ 5
For this purpose I left you in Crete, that you might set in order things not yet complete and ordain elders in every city as I directed you.
إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ بِلَا لَوْمٍ، بَعْلَ ٱمْرَأَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ، لَهُ أَوْلَادٌ مُؤْمِنُونَ، لَيْسُوا فِي شِكَايَةِ ٱلْخَلَاعَةِ وَلَا مُتَمَرِّدِينَ. ٦ 6
An elder must be without blame, the husband of one wife, with faithful children who do not have the reputation of being reckless or undisciplined.
لِأَنَّهُ يَجِبُ أَنْ يَكُونَ ٱلْأُسْقُفُ: بِلَا لَوْمٍ كَوَكِيلِ ٱللهِ، غَيْرَ مُعْجِبٍ بِنَفْسِهِ، وَلَا غَضُوبٍ، وَلَا مُدْمِنِ ٱلْخَمْرِ، وَلَا ضَرَّابٍ، وَلَا طَامِعٍ فِي ٱلرِّبْحِ ٱلْقَبِيحِ، ٧ 7
It is necessary for the overseer, as God's household manager, to be blameless. He must not be arrogant, not be easily angered, not addicted to wine, not a brawler, and not a greedy man.
بَلْ مُضِيفًا لِلْغُرَبَاءِ، مُحِبًّا لِلْخَيْرِ، مُتَعَقِّلًا، بَارًّا، وَرِعًا، ضَابِطًا لِنَفْسِهِ، ٨ 8
Instead, he should be hospitable and a friend of what is good. He must be sensible, righteous, godly, and self-controlled.
مُلَازِمًا لِلْكَلِمَةِ ٱلصَّادِقَةِ ٱلَّتِي بِحَسَبِ ٱلتَّعْلِيمِ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ قَادِرًا أَنْ يَعِظَ بِٱلتَّعْلِيمِ ٱلصَّحِيحِ وَيُوَبِّخَ ٱلْمُنَاقِضِينَ. ٩ 9
He should hold tightly to the trustworthy message that was taught, so that he may be able to encourage others with good teaching and correct those who oppose him.
فَإِنَّهُ يُوجَدُ كَثِيرُونَ مُتَمَرِّدِينَ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِٱلْبَاطِلِ، وَيَخْدَعُونَ ٱلْعُقُولَ، وَلَاسِيَّمَا ٱلَّذِينَ مِنَ ٱلْخِتَانِ، ١٠ 10
For there are many rebellious people, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَجِبُ سَدُّ أَفْوَاهِهِمْ، فَإِنَّهُمْ يَقْلِبُونَ بُيُوتًا بِجُمْلَتِهَا، مُعَلِّمِينَ مَا لَا يَجِبُ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلرِّبْحِ ٱلْقَبِيحِ. ١١ 11
It is necessary to stop them. They are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful profit what they should not teach.
قَالَ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ، وَهُوَ نَبِيٌّ لَهُمْ خَاصٌّ: «ٱلْكِرِيتِيُّونَ دَائِمًا كَذَّابُونَ. وُحُوشٌ رَدِيَّةٌ. بُطُونٌ بَطَّالَةٌ». ١٢ 12
One of their own prophets has said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.”
هَذِهِ ٱلشَّهَادَةُ صَادِقَةٌ. فَلِهَذَا ٱلسَّبَبِ وَبِّخْهُمْ بِصَرَامَةٍ لِكَيْ يَكُونُوا أَصِحَّاءَ فِي ٱلْإِيمَانِ، ١٣ 13
This statement is true. Therefore, correct them severely, so that they may be sound in the faith,
لَا يُصْغُونَ إِلَى خُرَافَاتٍ يَهُودِيَّةٍ، وَوَصَايَا أُنَاسٍ مُرْتَدِّينَ عَنِ ٱلْحَقِّ. ١٤ 14
not paying any attention to Jewish myths or to the commands of people who turn away from the truth.
كُلُّ شَيْءٍ طَاهِرٌ لِلطَّاهِرِينَ، وَأَمَّا لِلنَّجِسِينَ وَغَيْرِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَلَيْسَ شَيْءٌ طَاهِرًا، بَلْ قَدْ تَنَجَّسَ ذِهْنُهُمْ أَيْضًا وَضَمِيرُهُمْ. ١٥ 15
To those who are pure, all things are pure. But to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, nothing is pure, but both their minds and their consciences have been corrupted.
يَعْتَرِفُونَ بِأَنَّهُمْ يَعْرِفُونَ ٱللهَ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ بِٱلْأَعْمَالِ يُنْكِرُونَهُ، إِذْ هُمْ رَجِسُونَ غَيْرُ طَائِعِينَ، وَمِنْ جِهَةِ كُلِّ عَمَلٍ صَالِحٍ مَرْفُوضُونَ. ١٦ 16
They profess to know God, but they deny him by their actions. They are detestable, disobedient, and unfit for doing any good work.
