< لُوقا 12 >

وَفِي تِلْكَ الأَثْنَاءِ، إِذِ احْتَشَدَ عَشَرَاتُ الأُلُوفِ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ حَتَّى دَاسَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضاً، أَخَذَ يَقُولُ لِتَلاَمِيذِهِ أَوَّلاً: «احْذَرُوا لأَنْفُسِكُمْ مِنْ خَمِيرِ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ الَّذِي هُوَ النِّفَاقُ! ١ 1
Then, as great crowds were standing so close that they were stepping on one another, he began to say to his disciples: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
فَمَا مِنْ مَسْتُورٍ لَنْ يُكْشَفَ، وَلاَ مِنْ سِرٍّ لَنْ يُعْرَفَ. ٢ 2
For there is nothing covered, which will not be revealed, nor anything hidden, which will not be known.
لِذَلِكَ كُلُّ مَا قُلْتُمُوهُ فِي الظَّلاَمِ سَوْفَ يُسْمَعُ فِي النُّورِ، وَمَا تَحَدَّثْتُمْ بِهِ هَمْساً فِي الْغُرَفِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ سَوْفَ يُذَاعُ عَلَى سُطُوحِ الْبُيُوتِ. ٣ 3
For the things that you have spoken in darkness will be declared in the light. And what you have said in the ear in bedrooms will be proclaimed from the housetops.
عَلَى أَنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ يَاأَحِبَّائِي: لاَ تَخَافُوا مِنَ الَّذِينَ يَقْتُلُونَ الْجَسَدَ ثُمَّ لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ يَفْعَلُوا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذلِكَ. ٤ 4
So I say to you, my friends: Do not be fearful of those who kill the body, and afterwards have no more that they can do.
وَلكِنِّي أُرِيكُمْ مِمَّنْ تَخَافُونَ: خَافُوا مِنَ الْقَادِرِ أَنْ يُلْقِيَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ بَعْدَ الْقَتْلِ. نَعَمْ، أَقُولُ لَكُمْ، مِنْ هَذَا خَافُوا! (Geenna g1067) ٥ 5
But I will reveal to you whom you should fear. Fear him who, after he will have killed, has the power to cast into Hell. So I say to you: Fear him. (Geenna g1067)
أَمَا تُبَاعُ خَمْسَةُ عَصَافِيرَ بِفَلْسَيْنِ؟ وَمَعَ ذلِكَ لاَ يَنْسَى اللهُ وَاحِداً مِنْهَا. ٦ 6
Are not five sparrows sold for two small coins? And yet not one of these is forgotten in the sight of God.
بَلْ إِنَّ شَعْرَ رُؤُوسِكُمْ كُلَّهُ مَعْدُودٌ. فَلاَ تَخَافُوا إِذَنْ، أَنْتُمْ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ عَصَافِيرَ كَثِيرَةٍ! ٧ 7
But even the very hairs of your head have all been numbered. Therefore, do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.
«وَلكِنْ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: كُلُّ مَنْ يَعْتَرِفُ بِي أَمَامَ النَّاسِ، يَعْتَرِفُ بِهِ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ أَيْضاً أَمَامَ مَلاَئِكَةِ اللهِ. ٨ 8
But I say to you: Everyone who will have confessed me before men, the Son of man will also confess him before the Angels of God.
وَمَنْ أَنْكَرَنِي أَمَامَ النَّاسِ، يُنْكَرُ أَمَامَ مَلاَئِكَةِ اللهِ. ٩ 9
But everyone who will have denied me before men, he will be denied before the Angels of God.
وَمَنْ قَالَ كَلِمَةً بِحَقِّ ابْنِ الإِنْسَانِ، يُغْفَرُ لَهُ. وَأَمَّا مَنْ ازْدَرَى بالرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ، فَلَنْ يُغْفَرَ لَهُ! ١٠ 10
And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of man, it will be forgiven of him. But of him who will have blasphemed against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven.
وَعِنْدَمَا يُؤْتَى بِكُمْ لِلْمُثُولِ أَمَامَ الْمَجَامِعِ وَالْحُكَّامِ وَالسُّلْطَاتِ، فَلاَ تَهْتَمُّوا كَيْفَ أَوْ بِمَاذَا تَرُدُّونَ، وَلاَ بِمَا تَقُولُونَ! ١١ 11
And when they will lead you to the synagogues, and to magistrates and authorities, do not choose to be worried about how or what you will answer, or about what you might say.
فَإِنَّ الرُّوحَ الْقُدُسَ سَيُلَقِّنُكُمْ فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ عَيْنِهَا مَا يَجِبُ أَنْ تَقُولُوا». ١٢ 12
For the Holy Spirit will teach you, in the same hour, what you must say.”
وَقَالَ لَهُ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ بَيْنِ الْجَمْعِ: «يَامُعَلِّمُ، قُلْ لأَخِي أَنْ يُقَاسِمَنِي الإِرْثَ!» ١٣ 13
And someone from the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me.”
وَلكِنَّهُ قَالَ لَهُ: «يَاإِنْسَانُ، مَنْ أَقَامَنِي عَلَيْكُمَا قَاضِياً أَوْ مُقَسِّماً؟» ١٤ 14
But he said to him, “Man, who has appointed me as judge or arbitrator over you?”
وَقَالَ لِلْجَمْعِ: «احْذَرُوا وَتَحَفَّظُوا مِنَ الطَّمَعِ. فَمَتَى كَانَ الإِنْسَانُ فِي سَعَةٍ، لاَ تَكُونُ حَيَاتُهُ فِي أَمْوَالِهِ». ١٥ 15
So he said to them: “Be cautious and wary of all avarice. For a person’s life is not found in the abundance of the things that he possesses.”
وَضَرَبَ لَهُمْ مَثَلاً، قَالَ «إِنْسَانٌ غَنِيٌّ أَنْتَجَتْ لَهُ أَرْضُهُ مَحَاصِيلَ وَافِرَةً. ١٦ 16
Then he spoke to them using a comparison, saying: “The fertile land of a certain wealthy man produced crops.
فَفَكَّرَ فِي نَفْسِهِ قَائِلاً: مَاذَا أَعْمَلُ وَلَيْسَ عِنْدِي مَكَانٌ أَخْزِنُ فِيهِ مَحَاصِيلِي؟ ١٧ 17
And he thought within himself, saying: ‘What should I do? For I have nowhere to gather together my crops.’
وَقَالَ: أَعْمَلُ هَذَا: أَهْدِمُ مَخَازِنِي وَأَبْنِي أَعْظَمَ مِنْهَا، وَهُنَاكَ أَخْزِنُ جَمِيعَ غِلاَلِي وَخَيْرَاتِي. ١٨ 18
And he said: ‘This is what I will do. I will tear down my barns and build larger ones. And into these, I will gather all the things that have been grown for me, as well as my goods.
وَأَقُولُ لِنَفْسِي: يَانَفْسُ، عِنْدَكِ خَيْرَاتٌ كَثِيرَةٌ مَخْزُونَةٌ لِسِنِينَ عَدِيدَةٍ، فَاسْتَرِيحِي وَكُلِي وَاشْرَبِي وَافْرَحِي! ١٩ 19
And I will say to my soul: Soul, you have many goods, stored up for many years. Relax, eat, drink, and be cheerful.’
وَلكِنَّ اللهَ قَالَ لَهُ: يَاغَبِيُّ، هذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ تُطْلَبُ نَفْسُكَ مِنْكَ، فَلِمَنْ يَبْقَى مَا أَعْدَدْتَهُ؟ ٢٠ 20
But God said to him: ‘Foolish one, this very night they require your soul of you. To whom, then, will those things belong, which you have prepared?’
هَذِهِ هِيَ حَالَةُ مَنْ يَخْزِنُ الْكُنُوزَ لِنَفْسِهِ وَلاَ يَكُونُ غَنِيّاً عِنْدَ اللهِ!» ٢١ 21
So it is with him who stores up for himself, and is not wealthy with God.”
ثُمَّ قَالَ لِتَلاَمِيذِهِ: «لِهَذَا السَّبَبِ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لاَ تَهْتَمُّوا لِحَيَاتِكُمْ بِمَا تَأْكُلُونَ، وَلاَ لأَجْسَادِكُمْ بِمَا تَكْتَسُونَ. ٢٢ 22
And he said to his disciples: “And so I say to you: Do not choose to be anxious about your life, as to what you may eat, nor about your body, as to what you will wear.
إِنَّ الْحَيَاةَ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ مُجَرَّدِ طَعَامٍ، وَالْجَسَدَ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ مُجَرَّدِ كِسَاءٍ. ٢٣ 23
Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
تَأَمَّلُوا الْغِرْبَانَ! فَهِيَ لاَ تَزْرَعُ وَلاَ تَحْصُدُ، وَلَيْسَ عِنْدَهَا مَخْزَنٌ وَلاَ مُسْتَوْدَعٌ، بَلْ يَعُولُهَا اللهُ. فَكَمْ أَنْتُمْ أَفْضَلُ كَثِيراً مِنَ الطُّيُورِ. ٢٤ 24
Consider the ravens. For they neither sow nor reap; there is no storehouse or barn for them. And yet God pastures them. How much more are you, compared to them?
وَلكِنْ، أَيٌّ مِنْكُمْ، إِذَا اهْتَمَّ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُطِيلَ عُمْرَهُ وَلَوْ سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً؟ ٢٥ 25
But which of you, by thinking, is able to add one cubit to his stature?
فَمَا دُمْتُمْ غَيْرَ قَادِرِينَ وَلَوْ عَلَى أَصْغَرِ الأُمُورِ، فَلِمَاذَا تَهْتَمُّونَ بِالأُمُورِ الأُخْرَى؟ ٢٦ 26
Therefore, if you are not capable, in what is so little, why be anxious about the rest?
تَأَمَّلُوا الزَّنَابِقَ كَيْفَ تَنْمُو! فَهِيَ لاَ تَتْعَبُ وَلاَ تَغْزِلُ، وَلكِنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: حَتَّى سُلَيْمَانُ فِي قِمَّةِ مَجْدِهِ لَمْ يَكْتَسِ مَا يُعَادِلُ وَاحِدَةً مِنْهَا بَهَاءً؟ ٢٧ 27
Consider the lilies, how they grow. They neither work nor weave. But I say to you, not even Solomon, in all his glory, was clothed like one of these.
فَإِنْ كَانَ اللهُ يَكْسُو الْعُشْبَ ثَوْباً كَهَذَا، مَعَ أَنَّهُ يَكُونُ الْيَوْمَ فِي الْحَقْلِ وَغَداً يُطْرَحُ فِي التَّنُّورِ، فَكَمْ أَنْتُمْ أَوْلَى مِنَ الْعُشْبِ (بِأَنْ يَكْسُوَكُمُ اللهُ) يَاقَلِيلِي الإِيمَانِ؟ ٢٨ 28
Therefore, if God so clothes the grass, which is in the field today and thrown into the furnace tomorrow, how much more you, O little in faith?
فَعَلَيْكُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَلاَّ تَسْعَوْا إِلَى مَا تَأْكُلُونَ وَتَشْرَبُونَ، وَلاَ تَكُونُوا قَلِقِينَ. ٢٩ 29
And so, do not choose to inquire as to what you will eat, or what you will drink. And do not choose to be lifted up on high.
فَهذِهِ الْحَاجَاتُ كُلُّهَا تَسْعَى إِلَيْهَا أُمَمُ الْعَالَمِ، وَأَبُوكُمْ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّكُمْ تَحْتَاجُونَ إِلَيْهَا. ٣٠ 30
For all these things are sought by the Gentiles of the world. And your Father knows that you have need of these things.
إِنَّمَا اسْعَوْا إِلَى مَلَكُوتِهِ، فَتُزَادُ لَكُمْ هذِهِ كُلُّهَا. ٣١ 31
Yet truly, seek first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added to you.
لاَ تَخَفْ، أَيُّهَا الْقَطِيعُ الصَّغِيرُ، لأَنَّ أَبَاكُمْ قَدْ سُرَّ أَنْ يُعْطِيَكُمُ الْمَلَكُوتَ. ٣٢ 32
Do not be afraid, little flock; for it has pleased your Father to give you the kingdom.
بِيعُوا مَا تَمْلِكُونَ وَأَعْطُوا صَدَقَةً، وَاجْعَلُوا لَكُمْ أَكْيَاساً لاَ تَبْلَى، كَنْزاً فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ لاَ يَنْفَدُ، حَيْثُ لاَ يَقْتَرِبُ لِصٌّ وَلاَ يُفْسِدُ سُوسٌ. ٣٣ 33
Sell what you possess, and give alms. Make for yourselves purses that will not wear out, a treasure that will not fall short, in heaven, where no thief approaches, and no moth corrupts.
لأَنَّهُ حَيْثُ يَكُونُ كَنْزُكُمْ، يَكُونُ قَلْبُكُمْ أَيْضاً. ٣٤ 34
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
لِتَكُنْ أَوْسَاطُكُمْ مَشْدُودَةً بِالأَحْزِمَةِ وَمَصَابِيحُكُمْ مُضَاءَةً، ٣٥ 35
Let your waists be girded, and let lamps be burning in your hands.
وَكُونُوا مِثْلَ أُنَاسٍ يَنْتَظِرُونَ رُجُوعَ سَيِّدِهِمْ مِنْ وَلِيمَةِ الْعُرْسِ، حَتَّى إِذَا وَصَلَ وَقَرَعَ الْبَابَ يَفْتَحُونَ لَهُ حَالاً. ٣٦ 36
And let you yourselves be like men awaiting their lord, when he will return from the wedding; so that, when he arrives and knocks, they may open to him promptly.
طُوبَى لأُولئِكَ الْعَبِيدِ الَّذِينَ يَجِدُهُمْ سَيِّدُهُمْ لَدَى عَوْدَتِهِ سَاهِرِينَ. الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُ يَشُدُّ وَسَطَهُ بِالْحِزَامِ وَيَجْعَلُهُمْ يَتَّكِئُونَ وَيَقُومُ يَخْدِمُهُمْ. ٣٧ 37
Blessed are those servants whom the Lord, when he returns, will find being vigilant. Amen I say to you, that he will gird himself and have them sit down to eat, while he, continuing on, will minister to them.
فَطُوبَى لَهُمْ إِذَا رَجَعَ فِي الرُّبْعِ الثَّانِي أَوِ الثَّالِثِ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ وَوَجَدَهُمْ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ. ٣٨ 38
And if he will return in the second watch, or if in the third watch, and if he will find them to be so: then blessed are those servants.
وَلَكِنِ اعْلَمُوا هَذَا: أَنَّهُ لَوْ كَانَ رَبُّ الْبَيْتِ يَعْرِفُ فِي أَيَّةِ سَاعَةٍ يَدْهَمُهُ اللِّصُّ، لَكَانَ سَهِرَ وَمَا تَرَكَ بَيْتَهُ يُنْقَبُ. ٣٩ 39
But know this: that if the father of the family knew at what hour the thief would arrive, he would certainly stand watch, and he would not permit his house to be broken into.
فَكُونُوا أَنْتُمْ مُسْتَعِدِّينَ، لأَنَّ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ سَيَعُودُ فِي سَاعَةٍ لاَ تَتَوَقَّعُونَهَا». ٤٠ 40
You also must be prepared. For the Son of man will return at an hour that you will not realize.”
وَسَأَلَهُ بُطْرُسُ: «يَارَبُّ، أَلَنَا تَضْرِبُ هَذَا الْمَثَلَ أَمْ لِلْجَمِيعِ عَلَى السَّوَاءِ؟» ٤١ 41
Then Peter said to him, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or also to everyone?”
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «مَنْ هُوَ إِذَنِ الْوَكِيلُ الأَمِينُ الْعَاقِلُ الَّذِي يُقِيمُهُ سَيِّدُهُ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ لِيُقَدِّمَ لَهُمْ حِصَّتَهُمْ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ فِي حِينِهَا؟ ٤٢ 42
So the Lord said: “Who do you think is the faithful and prudent steward, whom his Lord has appointed over his family, in order to give them their measure of wheat in due time?
طُوبَى لِذَلِكَ الْعَبْدِ الَّذِي يَجِدُهُ سَيِّدُهُ، لَدَى رُجُوعِهِ، يَقُومُ بِهَذَا الْعَمَلِ. ٤٣ 43
Blessed is that servant if, when his Lord will return, he will find him acting in this manner.
الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُ يُقِيمُهُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ مُمْتَلَكَاتِهِ. ٤٤ 44
Truly I say to you, that he will appoint him over all that he possesses.
وَلكِنْ إِذَا قَالَ ذَلِكَ الْعَبْدُ فِي نَفْسِهِ: سَيِّدِي سَيَتَأخَّرُ فِي رُجُوعِهِ؛ وَأَخَذَ يَضْرِبُ الْخَادِمِينَ وَالْخَادِمَاتِ وَيَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ وَيَسْكَرُ، ٤٥ 45
But if that servant will have said in his heart, ‘My Lord has made a delay in his return,’ and if he has begun to strike the men and women servants, and to eat and drink, and to be inebriated,
فَإِنَّ سَيِّدَ ذَلِكَ الْعَبْدِ يَرْجِعُ فِي يَوْمٍ لاَ يَتَوَقَّعُهُ وَسَاعَةٍ لاَ يَعْرِفُهَا، فَيُمَزِّقُهُ وَيَجْعَلُ مَصِيرَهُ مَعَ الْخَائِنِينَ. ٤٦ 46
then the Lord of that servant will return on a day which he hoped not, and at an hour which he knew not. And he will separate him, and he will place his portion with that of the unfaithful.
وَأَمَّا ذَلِكَ الْعَبْدُ الَّذِي يَعْمَلُ بِإِرَادَةِ سَيِّدِهِ، فَإِنَّهُ سَيُضْرَبُ كَثِيراً. ٤٧ 47
And that servant, who knew the will of his Lord, and who did not prepare and did not act according to his will, will be beaten many times over.
وَلكِنَّ الَّذِي لاَ يَعْلَمُهَا وَيَعْمَلُ مَا يَسْتَوْجِبُ الضَّرْبَ، فَإِنَّهُ سَيُضْرَبُ قَلِيلاً. فَكَلُّ مَنْ أُعْطِيَ كَثِيراً، يُطْلَبُ مِنْهُ كَثِيرٌ؛ وَمَنْ أُوْدِعَ كَثِيراً، يُطَالَبُ بِأَكْثَرَ. ٤٨ 48
Yet he who did not know, and who acted in a way that deserves a beating, will be beaten fewer times. So then, of all to whom much has been given, much will be required. And of those to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be asked.
جِئْتُ لأُلْقِيَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ نَاراً، فَلَكَمْ أَوَدُّ أَنْ تَكُونَ قَدِ اشْتَعَلَتْ؟ ٤٩ 49
I have come to cast a fire upon the earth. And what should I desire, except that it may be kindled?
وَلكِنَّ لِي مَعْمُودِيَّةَ أَلَمٍ عَلَيَّ أَنْ أَتَعَمَّدَ بِهَا، وَكَمْ أَنَا مُتَضَايِقٌ حَتَّى تَتِمَّ! ٥٠ 50
And I have a baptism, with which I am to be baptized. And how I am constrained, even until it may be accomplished!
أَتَظُنَّونَ أَنِّي جِئْتُ لأُرسِيَ السَّلاَمَ عَلَى الأرْضِ؟ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لاَ، بَلْ بِالأَحْرَى الانْقِسَامَ: ٥١ 51
Do you think that I have come to give peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division.
فَإِنَّهُ مُنْذُ الآنَ يَكُونُ فِي الْبَيْتِ الْوَاحِدِ خَمْسَةٌ فَيَنْقَسِمُونَ: ثَلاَثَةٌ عَلَى اثْنَيْنِ، وَاثْنَانِ عَلَى ثَلاَثَةٍ ٥٢ 52
For from this time on, there will be five in one house: divided as three against two, and as two against three.
فَالآبُ يَنْقَسِمُ عَلَى ابْنِهِ، وَالابْنُ عَلَى أَبِيهِ، وَالأُمُّ عَلَى بِنْتِهَا، وَالْبِنْتُ عَلَى أُمِّهَا، وَالْحَمَاةُ عَلَى كَنَّتِهَا، وَالْكَنَّةُ عَلَى حَمَاتِهَا!» ٥٣ 53
A father will be divided against a son, and a son against his father; a mother against a daughter and a daughter against a mother; a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”
وَقَالَ أَيْضاً لِلْجُمُوعِ: «عِنْدَمَا تَرَوْنَ سَحَابَةً تَطْلُعُ مِنَ الْغَرْبِ، تَقُولُونَ حَالاً: الْمَطَرُ آتٍ! وَهكَذَا يَكُونُ. ٥٤ 54
And he also said to the crowds: “When you see a cloud rising from the setting of the sun, immediately you say, ‘A rain cloud is coming.’ And so it does.
وَعِنْدَمَا تَهُبُّ رِيحُ الْجَنُوبِ، تَقُولُونَ: سَيَكُونُ حَرٌّ! وَهكَذَا يَكُونُ. ٥٥ 55
And when a south wind is blowing, you say, ‘It will be hot.’ And so it is.
يَامُنَافِقُونَ! تَعْرِفُونَ أَنْ تُمَيِّزُوا مَنْظَرَ الأَرْضِ وَالْسَّمَاءِ، قَكَيْفَ لاَ تُمَيِّزُونَ هَذَا الزَّمَانَ؟ ٥٦ 56
You hypocrites! You discern the face of the heavens, and of the earth, yet how is it that you do not discern this time?
وَلِمَاذَا لاَ تُمَيِّزُونَ مَا هُوَ حَقٌّ مِنْ تِلْقَاءِ أَنْفُسِكُمْ؟ ٥٧ 57
And why do you not, even among yourselves, judge what is just?
فَفِيمَا أَنْتَ ذَاهِبٌ مَعَ خَصْمِكَ إِلَى الْمُحَاكَمَةِ، اجْتَهِدْ فِي الطَّرِيقِ لِتَتَصَالَحَ مَعَهُ، لِئَلاَّ يَجُرَّكَ إِلَى الْقَاضِي، فَيُسَلِّمَكَ الْقَاضِي إِلَى الشُّرَطِيِّ، وَيُلْقِيَكَ الشُّرَطِيُّ فِي السِّجْنِ. ٥٨ 58
So, when you are going with your adversary to the ruler, while you are on the way, make an effort to be freed from him, lest perhaps he may lead you to the judge, and the judge may deliver you to the officer, and the officer may cast you into prison.
أَقُولُ لَكَ: إِنَّكَ لَنْ تَخْرُجَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ حَتَّى تَكُونَ قَدْ وَفَّيْتَ مَا عَلَيْكَ إِلَى آخِرِ فَلْسٍ!» ٥٩ 59
I tell you, you will not depart from there, until you have paid the very last coin.”
