وَاجْتَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ وَبَعْضُ الْكَتَبَةِ، قَادِمِينَ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ. ١ 1
The Pharisees and religious leaders who had come down from Jerusalem to meet Jesus
وَرَأَوْا بَعْضَ تَلامِيذِهِ يَتَنَاوَلُونَ الطَّعَامَ بِأَيْدٍ نَجِسَةٍ، أَيْ غَيْرِ مَغْسُولَةٍ. ٢ 2
noticed that some of his disciples ate with “unclean” (meaning unwashed) hands.
فَقَدْ كَانَ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ، وَالْيَهُودُ عَامَّةً، لَا يَأْكُلُونَ مَا لَمْ يَغْسِلُوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ مِرَاراً، مُتَمَسِّكِينَ بِتَقْلِيدِ الشُّيُوخِ. ٣ 3
(The Pharisees and all Jews don't eat until they wash their hands, following the tradition of their ancestors.
وَإذَا عَادُوا مِنَ السُّوقِ، لَا يَأْكُلُونَ مَا لَمْ يَغْتَسِلُوا. وَهُنَاكَ طُقُوسٌ أُخْرَى كَثِيرَةٌ تَسَلَّمُوهَا لِيَتَمَسَّكُوا بِها، كَغَسْلِ الْكُؤُوسِ وَالأَبَارِيقِ وَأَوْعِيَةِ النُّحَاسِ. ٤ 4
In the same way, they don't eat when they return from the market until they have had a wash. They observe many other rituals, like the washing of cups, pots, and pans.)
عِنْدَئِذٍ سَأَلَهُ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ وَالْكَتَبَةُ: «لِمَاذَا لَا يَسْلُكُ تَلامِيذُكَ وَفْقاً لِتَقْلِيدِ الشُّيُوخِ، بَلْ يَتَنَاوَلُونَ الطَّعَامَ بِأَيْدٍ نَجِسَةٍ؟» ٥ 5
So the Pharisees and religious leaders asked Jesus, “Why don't your disciples follow the tradition of our ancestors? They eat food with unclean hands.”
فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِمْ قَائِلاً: «أَحْسَنَ إِشَعْيَاءُ إِذْ تَنَبَّأَ عَنْكُمْ أَيُّهَا الْمُنَافِقُونَ، كَمَا جَاءَ فِي الْكِتَابِ: هَذَا الشَّعْبُ يُكْرِمُنِي بِشَفَتَيْهِ، وَأَمَّا قَلْبُهُ فَبَعِيدٌ عَنِّي جِدّاً. ٦ 6
Jesus replied, “Isaiah was right about you hypocrites when he said, ‘These people claim they honor me, but in their thinking they are far from me.
إِنَّمَا بَاطِلاً يَعْبُدُونَنِي وَهُمْ يُعَلِّمُونَ تَعَالِيمَ لَيْسَتْ إِلّا وَصَايَا النَّاسِ! ٧ 7
There's no point in their worship of me, for what they teach as doctrines are merely human rules.’
فَقَدْ أَهْمَلْتُمْ وَصِيَّةَ اللهِ وَتَمَسَّكْتُمْ بِتَقْلِيدِ النَّاسِ!» ٨ 8
You disregard God's law, and instead you carefully observe human traditions,” he told them.
وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «حَقّاً أَنَّكُمْ رَفَضْتُمْ وَصِيَّةَ اللهِ لِتُحَافِظُوا عَلَى تَقْلِيدِكُمْ أَنْتُمْ! ٩ 9
“How cleverly you set aside God's law so you can support your traditions!
فَإِنَّ مُوسَى قَالَ: أَكْرِمْ أَبَاكَ وَأُمَّكَ! وَأَيْضاً: مَنْ أَهَانَ أَبَاهُ أَوْ أُمَّهُ، فَلْيَكُنِ الْمَوْتُ عِقَاباً لَهُ! ١٠ 10
Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and ‘Whoever curses their father or mother should die.’
وَلكِنَّكُمْ أَنْتُمْ تَقُولُونَ: إِذَا قَالَ أَحَدٌ لأَبِيهِ أَوْ أُمِّهِ: إِنَّ مَا كُنْتُ أَعُولُكَ بِهِ قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ قُرْبَاناً، أَيْ تَقْدِمَةً لِلْهَيْكَلِ، ١١ 11
But you say that if someone tells their father or mother, ‘Anything you might have received from me is now Corban,’ (that means dedicated to God),
فَهُوَ فِي حِلٍّ مِنْ إِعَانَةِ أَبِيهِ أَوْ أُمِّهِ! ١٢ 12
then you don't permit them to do anything further for their mother or father.
وَهكَذَا تُبْطِلُونَ كَلِمَةَ اللهِ بِتَعْلِيمِكُمُ التَّقْلِيدِيِّ الَّذِي تَتَنَاقَلُونَهُ. وَهُنَاكَ أُمُورٌ كَثِيرَةٌ مِثْلُ هذِهِ تَفْعَلُونَهَا!» ١٣ 13
By means of this tradition of yours that you pass down, you make God's word null and void. You do many other things like this.”
وَإِذْ دَعَا الْجَمْعَ إِلَيْهِ ثَانِيَةً، قَالَ لَهُمْ: «اسْمَعُوا لِي كُلُّكُمْ وَافْهَمُوا! ١٤ 14
Jesus called the crowd to him again and told them, “Please, everyone listen to me and understand.
لَا شَيْءَ مِنْ خَارِجِ الإِنْسَانِ إِذَا دَخَلَهُ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يُنَجِّسَهُ. أَمَّا الأَشْيَاءُ الْخَارِجَةُ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ، فَهِيَ الَّتِي تُنَجِّسُهُ. ١٥ 15
It's not what's on the outside and goes into you that makes you unclean. It's what comes out that makes you unclean.”
مَنْ لَهُ أُذُنَانِ لِلسَّمْعِ، فَلْيَسْمَعْ». ١٦ 16
وَلَمَّا غَادَرَ الْجَمْعَ وَدَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ، اسْتَفْسَرَهُ التَّلامِيذُ مَغْزَى الْمَثَلِ، ١٧ 17
Then Jesus went inside to escape the crowd, and his disciples asked him about his illustration.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَهكَذَا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً لَا تَفْهَمُونَ؟ أَلا تُدْرِكُونَ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَا يَدْخُلُ الإِنْسَانَ مِنَ الْخَارِجِ لَا يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يُنَجِّسَهُ، ١٨ 18
“Don't you understand it either?” he asked them. “Don't you see that what you eat doesn't make you unclean?
لأَنَّهُ لَا يَدْخُلُ إِلَى قَلْبِهِ بَلْ إِلَى الْبَطْنِ، ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى الْخَلاءِ؟» مِمَّا يَجْعَلُ الأَطْعِمَةَ كُلَّهَا طَاهِرَةً. ١٩ 19
It doesn't go into your mind, but into your stomach, and then passes out of the body. So all foods are ceremonially ‘clean.’
ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِنَّ الَّذِي يَخْرُجُ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ، هُوَ يُنَجِّسُ الإِنْسَانَ. ٢٠ 20
It's what comes out of you that makes you unclean.
فَإِنَّهُ مِنَ الدَّاخِلِ، مِنْ قُلُوبِ النَّاسِ، تَنْبُعُ الأَفْكَارُ الشِّرِّيرَةُ، الْفِسْقُ، السَّرِقَةُ، الْقَتْلُ، ٢١ 21
It's from the inside, from people's minds, that evil thoughts come: sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
الزِّنَى، الطَّمَعُ، الْخُبْثُ، الْخِدَاعُ، الْعَهَارَةُ، الْعَيْنُ الشِّرِّيرَةُ، التَّجْدِيفُ، الْكِبْرِيَاءُ، الْحَمَاقَةُ ٢٢ 22
greed, malice, deceit, indecency, envy, slander, pride, thoughtlessness—
هذِهِ الأُمُورُ الشِّرِّيرَةُ كُلُّهَا تَنْبُعُ مِنْ دَاخِلِ الإِنْسَانِ وَتُنَجِّسُهُ». ٢٣ 23
all these evils come from inside and defile people.”
ثُمَّ تَرَكَ يَسُوعُ تِلْكَ الْمِنْطَقَةَ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى نَوَاحِي صُورَ. فَدَخَلَ بَيْتاً وَهُوَ لَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَعْلَمَ بِهِ أَحَدٌ. وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ، لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يَظَلَّ مُخْتَفِياً. ٢٤ 24
Then Jesus left and went to the region of Tyre. He didn't want anyone to know he was staying in a house there, but he couldn't keep it a secret.
فَإِنَّ امْرَأَةً كَانَ بِابْنَتِهَا رُوحٌ نَجِسٌ، مَا إِنْ سَمِعَتْ بِخَبَرِهِ حَتَّى جَاءَتْ وَارْتَمَتْ عَلَى قَدَمَيْهِ، ٢٥ 25
As soon as a woman, whose little daughter had an evil spirit, heard about him she came and fell at his feet.
وَكَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ كَنْعَانِيَّةً، مِنْ أَصْلٍ سُورِيٍّ فِينِيقِيٍّ، وَتَوَسَّلَتْ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَطْرُدَ الشَّيْطَانَ مِنِ ابْنَتِهَا. ٢٦ 26
The woman was Greek, born in Syrophoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive out the demon from her daughter.
وَلكِنَّهُ قَالَ لَهَا: «دَعِي الْبَنِينَ أَوَّلاً يَشْبَعُونَ! فَلَيْسَ مِنَ الصَّوَابِ أَنْ يُؤْخَذَ خُبْزُ الْبَنِينَ وَيُطْرَحَ لِلْكِلابِ». ٢٧ 27
“First let the children eat until they're full,” Jesus replied. “It's not right to take the children's food and throw it to the dogs.”
فَأَجَابَتْ قَائِلَةً لَهُ: «صَحِيحٌ يَا سَيِّدُ! وَلكِنَّ الْكِلابَ تَحْتَ الْمَائِدَةِ تَأْكُلُ مِنْ فُتَاتِ الْبَنِينَ!» ٢٨ 28
“True, sir,” she said, “but even the dogs under the table eat the scraps the children leave.”
فَقَالَ لَهَا: «لأَجْلِ هذِهِ الْكَلِمَةِ اذْهَبِي، فَقَدْ خَرَجَ الشَّيْطَانُ مِنِ ابْنَتِكِ!» ٢٩ 29
Jesus told her, “For such an answer you may go—the demon has left your daughter.”
فَلَمَّا رَجَعَتْ إِلَى بَيْتِهَا، وَجَدَتِ ابْنَتَهَا عَلَى السَّرِيرِ وَقَدْ خَرَجَ مِنْهَا الشَّيْطَانُ. ٣٠ 30
She went home and found the child lying on the bed, the demon gone.
ثُمَّ غَادَرَ يَسُوعُ نَوَاحِي صُورَ وَعَادَ إِلَى بُحَيْرَةِ الْجَلِيلِ، مُرُوراً بِصَيْدَا وَعَبْرَ حُدُودِ الْمُدُنِ الْعَشْرِ. ٣١ 31
Leaving the region of Tyre, Jesus passed through Sidon and then on to the Sea of Galilee and the territory of the Ten Cities.
فَأَحْضَرُوا إِلَيْهِ أَصَمَّ مَعْقُودَ اللِّسَانِ، وَتَوَسَّلُوا إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ. ٣٢ 32
There they brought him a deaf man who also could not speak properly. They asked Jesus to touch the man with his hand and heal him.
فَانْفَرَدَ بِهِ بَعِيداً عَنِ الْجَمْعِ. وَوَضَعَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ فِي أُذُنَيِ الرَّجُلِ، ثُمَّ تَفَلَ وَلَمَسَ لِسَانَهُ، ٣٣ 33
After Jesus took him aside from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers in the deaf man's ears. Then he touched the man's tongue with spit.
وَرَفَعَ نَظَرَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، وَتَنَهَّدَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «افَّاتَا!» أَيِ انْفَتِحْ. ٣٤ 34
Jesus looked up to heaven and with a sigh he said, “Ephphatha,” which means, “Open!”
وَفِي الْحَالِ انْفَتَحَتْ أُذُنَاهُ وَانْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةُ لِسَانِهِ، وَتَكَلَّمَ بِطَلاقَةٍ. ٣٥ 35
The man's ears were opened, his speech impediment was gone, and he began speaking properly.
وَأَوْصَاهُمْ أَنْ لَا يُخْبِرُوا أَحَداً بِذلِكَ. وَلَكِنْ كُلَّمَا أَوْصَاهُمْ أَكْثَرَ، كَانُوا يُكْثِرُونَ مِنْ إِعْلانِ الْخَبَرِ. ٣٦ 36
Jesus gave strict orders not to tell anyone, but the more he said this, the more they spread the news.
وَذُهِلُوا جِدّاً، قَائِلِينَ: «مَا أَرْوَعَ كُلَّ مَا يَفْعَلُ. فَهُوَ يَجْعَلُ الصُّمَّ يَسْمَعُونَ وَالْخُرْسَ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ». ٣٧ 37
They were totally amazed and said, “Everything he does is marvelous. He even makes the deaf hear, and the dumb speak.”
