لِذَلِكَ، فَلْنَتْرُكْ تِلْكَ الأُمُورَ الأَوَّلِيَّةَ عَنِ الْمَسِيحِ، وَنَتَقَدَّمْ إِلَى النُّضْجِ الْكَامِلِ. وَلا نَعُودُ إلَى تِلْكَ الأُسُسِ الَّتِي تَعَلَّمْنَاهَا سَابِقاً، وَهِيَ: التَّوْبَةُ مِنَ الأَعْمَالِ الْمُمِيتَةِ، وَالإِيمَانُ بِاللهِ، ١ 1
Therefore let us leave the commencement of the word of the Messiah, and let us proceed to the completion. Or will ye again lay another foundation for the repentance which is from dead works, and for the faith in God,
وَالنُّظُمُ الْمُخْتَصَّةُ بِطُقُوسِ الْمَعْمُودِيَّةِ، وَوَضْعُ الأَيْدِي، وَقِيَامَةُ الأَمْوَاتِ، وَالدَّيْنُونَةُ الأَبَدِيَّةُ. (aiōnios g166) ٢ 2
and for the doctrine of baptism, and for the laying on of a hand, and for the resurrection from the dead, and for the eternal judgment? (aiōnios g166)
وَبِإِذْنِ اللهِ، سَنَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ! ٣ 3
We will do this, if the Lord permit.
ذَلِكَ لأَنَّ الَّذِينَ قَدْ تَعَرَّضُوا مَرَّةً لِنُورِ الإِيمَانِ بِالْمَسِيحِ، فَذَاقُوا الْعَطِيَّةَ السَّمَاوِيَّةَ، وَصَارُوا مِنْ شُرَكَاءِ الرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ، ٤ 4
But they who have once descended to baptism, and have tasted the gift from heaven, and have received the Holy Spirit,
وَذَاقُوا كَلِمَةَ اللهِ الطَّيِّبَةَ، وَشَاهَدُوا مُعْجِزَاتِ «الْعَالَمِ الآتِي»، (aiōn g165) ٥ 5
and have tasted the good word of God, and the power of the world to come, (aiōn g165)
ثُمَّ ارْتَدُّوا، أُولَئِكَ يَسْتَحِيلُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يَتَجَدَّدُوا ثَانِيَةً فَيَعُودُوا إِلَى التَّوْبَةِ. فَهُمْ يَجْنُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ إِذْ يَصْلِبُونَ ابْنَ اللهِ مَرَّةً ثَانِيَةً وَيَجْعَلُونَهُ عُرْضَةً لِلْعَارِ. ٦ 6
cannot again sin, and a second time be renewed to repentance; or a second time crucify and insult the Son of God.
وَلا عَجَبَ، فَالتُّرْبَةُ الَّتِي تَشْرَبُ الأَمْطَارَ النَّازِلَةَ عَلَيْهَا مِرَاراً كَثِيرَةً، ثُمَّ تُنْتِجُ نَبَاتاً يَنْفَعُ الَّذِينَ حَرَثُوهَا، تَنَالُ الْبَرَكَةَ مِنَ اللهِ! ٧ 7
For the earth that drinketh the rain which cometh often upon it, and produceth the herb that is of use to those for whom it is cultivated, receiveth a blessing from God.
وَلَكِنَّهَا، إِنْ أَخْرَجَتِ الشَّوْكَ وَالعُشْبَ البَرِّيَّ، تَكُونُ مَرْفُوضَةً وَتَسْتَحِقُّ اللَّعْنَةَ، وَمَا نِهَايَتُهَا إِلّا الْحَرِيقُ. ٨ 8
But if it should put forth thorns and briers, it would have reprobation, and be not far from a curse, and its end would be a burning.
أَيُّهَا الأَحِبَّاءُ، مَعَ أَنِّي قَصَدْتُ تَحْذِيرَكُمْ بِمَا قُلْتُهُ هُنَا، فَأَنَا مُقْتَنِعٌ بِأَنَّ خَلاصَكُمْ أَمْرٌ لَا شَكَّ فِيهِ. إِذْ قَدْ عَمِلْتُمْ أَعْمَالاً فُضْلَى، تُرَافِقُ هَذَا الخَلاصَ. ٩ 9
But, in regard to you, my brethren, we are persuaded better things, and things pertaining to life, although we thus speak.
وَلَيْسَ اللهُ بِظَالِمٍ حَتَّى يَنْسَى عَمَلَكُمُ الْجَادَّ فِي إِظْهَارِ مَحَبَّتِكُمْ لَهُ عَنْ طَرِيقِ خِدْمَتِكُمْ لِلْقِدِّيسِينَ إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِهِ، الأَمْرُ الَّذِي قُمْتُمْ بِهِ قَبْلاً، وَتَقُومُونَ بِهِ الآنَ! ١٠ 10
For God is not unrighteous, to forget your works, and your charity which ye have shown in his name, in that ye have ministered and do minister to the saints.
وَإِنَّمَا نَتَمَنَّى أَنْ يُظْهِرَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمُ اجْتِهَاداً مُمَاثِلاً فِي الْمُحَافَظَةِ حَتَّى النِّهَايَةِ عَلَى الثِّقَةِ الْكَامِلَةِ بِالرَّجَاءِ. ١١ 11
And we desire, that each one of you may show this same activity, for the completion of your hope, even to the end:
وَذَلِكَ حَتَّى لَا تَتَكَاسَلُوا، بَلْ تَقْتَدُوا بِالَّذِينَ يَرِثُونَ مَا وَعَدَ اللهُ بِهِ، عَنْ طَرِيقِ الإِيمَانِ وَالصَّبْرِ. ١٢ 12
and that ye faint not; but that ye be emulators of them who by faith and patience have become heirs of the promise.
لِنَأْخُذْ وَعْدَ اللهِ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ مَثَلاً. فَلَمَّا قَطَعَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ الْوَعْدَ، أَقْسَمَ بِنَفْسِهِ، إِذْ لَيْسَ هُنَالِكَ مَنْ هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى يُقْسِمَ بِهِ. ١٣ 13
For when God made the promise to Abraham, because there was none greater than himself by whom he could swear, he swore by himself;
وَقَدْ قَالَ لَهُ: «لأُبَارِكَنَّكَ وَأُعْطِيَنَّكَ نَسْلاً كَثِيراً!» ١٤ 14
and said: Blessing, I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
وَهَكَذَا، انْتَظَرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بِصَبْرٍ فَنَالَ مَا وُعِدَ بِهِ. ١٥ 15
And so he was patient, and obtained the promise.
فَالْوَاقِعُ أَنَّ النَّاسَ يُقْسِمُونَ بِالأَعْظَمِ، وَالْقَسَمُ عِنْدَهُمْ، يَضَعُ حَدّاً لِكُلِّ مُشَاجَرَةٍ لأَنَّهُ يَحْسُمُ الأُمُورَ. ١٦ 16
For men swear by one greater than themselves: and in every controversy that occurs among them, the sure termination of it is by an oath.
وَلِذَلِكَ، لَمَّا أَرَادَ اللهُ أَنْ يُؤَكِّدَ بِصُورَةٍ قَاطِعَةٍ لِوَارِثِي وَعْدِهِ أَنَّ قَرَارَهُ لَا يَتَغَيَّرُ أَبَداً، ثَبَّتَهُ بِالْقَسَمِ. ١٧ 17
Therefore, God, being abundantly willing to show to the heirs of the promise, that his promising was irreversible, bound it up in an oath;
فَاسْتِنَاداً إِلَى وَعْدِ اللهِ وَقَسَمِهِ، وَهُمَا أَمْرَانِ ثَابِتَانِ لَا يَتَغَيَّرَانِ وَيَسْتَحِيلُ أَنْ يَكْذِبَ اللهُ فِيهِمَا، نَحْصُلُ عَلَى تَشْجِيعٍ قَوِيٍّ، بَعْدَمَا الْتَجَأْنَا إِلَى التَّمَسُّكِ بِالرَّجَاءِ الْمَوْضُوعِ أَمَامَنَا. ١٨ 18
so that, by two things which change not, and in which God cannot lie, we, who have sought refuge in him, might have great consolation, and might hold fast the hope promised to us;
هَذَا الرَّجَاءُ هُوَ لَنَا بِمَثَابَةِ مِرْسَاةٍ أَمِينَةٍ ثَابِتَةٍ تَشُدُّ نُفُوسَنَا إِلَى مَا وَرَاءَ الْحِجَابِ السَّمَاوِيِّ. ١٩ 19
which is to us as an anchor, that retaineth our soul, so that it swerveth not; and it entereth into that within the veil,
فَلأَجْلِنَا دَخَلَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ سَابِقاً لَنَا. وَهُوَ هُنَاكَ يَقُومُ بِمُهِمَّتِهِ نِيَابَةً عَنَّا بَعْدَمَا صَارَ رَئِيسَ كَهَنَةٍ إِلَى الأَبَدِ عَلَى رُتْبَةِ مَلْكِيصَادَقَ! (aiōn g165) ٢٠ 20
whither Jesus hath previously entered for us, and hath become a priest for ever, after the likeness of Melchisedec. (aiōn g165)
