< مَرْقُس 7 >
| وَاجْتَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ وَبَعْضُ الْكَتَبَةِ، قَادِمِينَ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ١ 1 |
One day the Pharisees and some of the teachers of the Law who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus.
| وَرَأَوْا بَعْضَ تَلامِيذِهِ يَتَنَاوَلُونَ الطَّعَامَ بِأَيْدٍ نَجِسَةٍ، أَيْ غَيْرِ مَغْسُولَةٍ. | ٢ 2 |
They had noticed that some of his disciples ate their food with their hands ‘defiled,’ by which they meant unwashed.
| فَقَدْ كَانَ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ، وَالْيَهُودُ عَامَّةً، لَا يَأْكُلُونَ مَا لَمْ يَغْسِلُوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ مِرَاراً، مُتَمَسِّكِينَ بِتَقْلِيدِ الشُّيُوخِ. | ٣ 3 |
(For the Pharisees, and indeed all strict Jews, will not eat without first scrupulously washing their hands, holding in this to the traditions 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 |
When they come from market, they will not eat without first sprinkling themselves; and there are many other customs which they have inherited and hold to, such as the ceremonial washing of cups, and jugs, and copper pans).
| عِنْدَئِذٍ سَأَلَهُ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ وَالْكَتَبَةُ: «لِمَاذَا لَا يَسْلُكُ تَلامِيذُكَ وَفْقاً لِتَقْلِيدِ الشُّيُوخِ، بَلْ يَتَنَاوَلُونَ الطَّعَامَ بِأَيْدٍ نَجِسَةٍ؟» | ٥ 5 |
So the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law asked Jesus this question – “How is it that your disciples do not follow the traditions of our ancestors, but eat their food with defiled 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 |
His answer was, “It was well said by Isaiah when he prophesied about you hypocrites in the words – ‘This is a people who honor me with their lips, while their hearts are far removed from me;
| إِنَّمَا بَاطِلاً يَعْبُدُونَنِي وَهُمْ يُعَلِّمُونَ تَعَالِيمَ لَيْسَتْ إِلّا وَصَايَا النَّاسِ! | ٧ 7 |
but vainly do they worship me, For they teach but human precepts.’
| فَقَدْ أَهْمَلْتُمْ وَصِيَّةَ اللهِ وَتَمَسَّكْتُمْ بِتَقْلِيدِ النَّاسِ!» | ٨ 8 |
You neglect God’s commandments and hold to human traditions.
| وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «حَقّاً أَنَّكُمْ رَفَضْتُمْ وَصِيَّةَ اللهِ لِتُحَافِظُوا عَلَى تَقْلِيدِكُمْ أَنْتُمْ! | ٩ 9 |
Wisely do you set aside God’s commandments,” he exclaimed, “to keep your own traditions!
| فَإِنَّ مُوسَى قَالَ: أَكْرِمْ أَبَاكَ وَأُمَّكَ! وَأَيْضاً: مَنْ أَهَانَ أَبَاهُ أَوْ أُمَّهُ، فَلْيَكُنِ الْمَوْتُ عِقَاباً لَهُ! | ١٠ 10 |
For while Moses said ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and ‘Let anyone who abuses their father or mother suffer death,’
| وَلكِنَّكُمْ أَنْتُمْ تَقُولُونَ: إِذَا قَالَ أَحَدٌ لأَبِيهِ أَوْ أُمِّهِ: إِنَّ مَا كُنْتُ أَعُولُكَ بِهِ قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ قُرْبَاناً، أَيْ تَقْدِمَةً لِلْهَيْكَلِ، | ١١ 11 |
you say ‘If a person says to their father or mother “Whatever of mine might have been of service to you is Corban”’ (which means ‘Set apart for God’) –
| فَهُوَ فِي حِلٍّ مِنْ إِعَانَةِ أَبِيهِ أَوْ أُمِّهِ! | ١٢ 12 |
why, then you do not allow them to do anything further for their father or mother!
| وَهكَذَا تُبْطِلُونَ كَلِمَةَ اللهِ بِتَعْلِيمِكُمُ التَّقْلِيدِيِّ الَّذِي تَتَنَاقَلُونَهُ. وَهُنَاكَ أُمُورٌ كَثِيرَةٌ مِثْلُ هذِهِ تَفْعَلُونَهَا!» | ١٣ 13 |
In this way you nullify the words of God by your traditions, which you hand down; and you do many similar things.”
| وَإِذْ دَعَا الْجَمْعَ إِلَيْهِ ثَانِيَةً، قَالَ لَهُمْ: «اسْمَعُوا لِي كُلُّكُمْ وَافْهَمُوا! | ١٤ 14 |
Then Jesus called the people to him again, and said, “Listen to me, all of you, and mark my words.
| لَا شَيْءَ مِنْ خَارِجِ الإِنْسَانِ إِذَا دَخَلَهُ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يُنَجِّسَهُ. أَمَّا الأَشْيَاءُ الْخَارِجَةُ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ، فَهِيَ الَّتِي تُنَجِّسُهُ. | ١٥ 15 |
There is nothing external to a person, which by going into them can defile them; but the things that come out of a person are the things that defile them.”
| مَنْ لَهُ أُذُنَانِ لِلسَّمْعِ، فَلْيَسْمَعْ». | ١٦ 16 |
| وَلَمَّا غَادَرَ الْجَمْعَ وَدَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ، اسْتَفْسَرَهُ التَّلامِيذُ مَغْزَى الْمَثَلِ، | ١٧ 17 |
When Jesus went indoors, away from the crowd, his disciples began questioning him about this saying.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَهكَذَا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً لَا تَفْهَمُونَ؟ أَلا تُدْرِكُونَ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَا يَدْخُلُ الإِنْسَانَ مِنَ الْخَارِجِ لَا يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يُنَجِّسَهُ، | ١٨ 18 |
“What, do even you understand so little?” exclaimed Jesus. “Don’t you see that there is nothing external to a person, which by going into a person, can defile them,
| لأَنَّهُ لَا يَدْخُلُ إِلَى قَلْبِهِ بَلْ إِلَى الْبَطْنِ، ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى الْخَلاءِ؟» مِمَّا يَجْعَلُ الأَطْعِمَةَ كُلَّهَا طَاهِرَةً. | ١٩ 19 |
because it does not pass into his heart, but into his stomach, and is afterward got rid of?” – in saying this Jesus pronounced all food clean.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِنَّ الَّذِي يَخْرُجُ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ، هُوَ يُنَجِّسُ الإِنْسَانَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
“It is what comes out from a person,” he added, “that defiles them,
| فَإِنَّهُ مِنَ الدَّاخِلِ، مِنْ قُلُوبِ النَّاسِ، تَنْبُعُ الأَفْكَارُ الشِّرِّيرَةُ، الْفِسْقُ، السَّرِقَةُ، الْقَتْلُ، | ٢١ 21 |
for it is from within, out of the hearts of people, that there come evil thoughts – sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
| الزِّنَى، الطَّمَعُ، الْخُبْثُ، الْخِدَاعُ، الْعَهَارَةُ، الْعَيْنُ الشِّرِّيرَةُ، التَّجْدِيفُ، الْكِبْرِيَاءُ، الْحَمَاقَةُ | ٢٢ 22 |
greed, wickedness, deceit, indecency, envy, slander, haughtiness, folly;
| هذِهِ الأُمُورُ الشِّرِّيرَةُ كُلُّهَا تَنْبُعُ مِنْ دَاخِلِ الإِنْسَانِ وَتُنَجِّسُهُ». | ٢٣ 23 |
all these wicked things come from within, and do defile a person.”
| 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 |
On leaving that place, Jesus went to the district of Tyre and Sidon. He went into a house, and did not wish anyone to know it, but could not escape notice.
| فَإِنَّ امْرَأَةً كَانَ بِابْنَتِهَا رُوحٌ نَجِسٌ، مَا إِنْ سَمِعَتْ بِخَبَرِهِ حَتَّى جَاءَتْ وَارْتَمَتْ عَلَى قَدَمَيْهِ، | ٢٥ 25 |
For a woman, whose little daughter had a foul spirit in her, heard of him immediately, and came and threw herself at his feet –
| وَكَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ كَنْعَانِيَّةً، مِنْ أَصْلٍ سُورِيٍّ فِينِيقِيٍّ، وَتَوَسَّلَتْ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَطْرُدَ الشَّيْطَانَ مِنِ ابْنَتِهَا. | ٢٦ 26 |
the woman was a foreigner, from Syrian Phoenicia – and she begged him to drive the demon out of her daughter.
| وَلكِنَّهُ قَالَ لَهَا: «دَعِي الْبَنِينَ أَوَّلاً يَشْبَعُونَ! فَلَيْسَ مِنَ الصَّوَابِ أَنْ يُؤْخَذَ خُبْزُ الْبَنِينَ وَيُطْرَحَ لِلْكِلابِ». | ٢٧ 27 |
“Let the children be satisfied first,” answered Jesus. “For it is not fair to take the children’s food, and throw it to dogs.”
| فَأَجَابَتْ قَائِلَةً لَهُ: «صَحِيحٌ يَا سَيِّدُ! وَلكِنَّ الْكِلابَ تَحْتَ الْمَائِدَةِ تَأْكُلُ مِنْ فُتَاتِ الْبَنِينَ!» | ٢٨ 28 |
“Yes, Master,” she replied. “Even the dogs under the table do feed on the children’s crumbs.”
| فَقَالَ لَهَا: «لأَجْلِ هذِهِ الْكَلِمَةِ اذْهَبِي، فَقَدْ خَرَجَ الشَّيْطَانُ مِنِ ابْنَتِكِ!» | ٢٩ 29 |
“For saying that,” he answered, “you may go. The demon has gone out of your daughter.”
| فَلَمَّا رَجَعَتْ إِلَى بَيْتِهَا، وَجَدَتِ ابْنَتَهَا عَلَى السَّرِيرِ وَقَدْ خَرَجَ مِنْهَا الشَّيْطَانُ. | ٣٠ 30 |
The woman went home, and found the child lying on her bed, and the demon gone.
| ثُمَّ غَادَرَ يَسُوعُ نَوَاحِي صُورَ وَعَادَ إِلَى بُحَيْرَةِ الْجَلِيلِ، مُرُوراً بِصَيْدَا وَعَبْرَ حُدُودِ الْمُدُنِ الْعَشْرِ. | ٣١ 31 |
On returning from the district of Tyre, Jesus went, by way of Sidon, to the Sea of Galilee, across the district of the Ten Towns.
| فَأَحْضَرُوا إِلَيْهِ أَصَمَّ مَعْقُودَ اللِّسَانِ، وَتَوَسَّلُوا إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Some people brought to him a man who was deaf and almost dumb, and they begged Jesus to place his hand on him.
| فَانْفَرَدَ بِهِ بَعِيداً عَنِ الْجَمْعِ. وَوَضَعَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ فِي أُذُنَيِ الرَّجُلِ، ثُمَّ تَفَلَ وَلَمَسَ لِسَانَهُ، | ٣٣ 33 |
Jesus took him aside from the crowd quietly, put his fingers into the man’s ears, and touched his tongue with saliva.
| وَرَفَعَ نَظَرَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، وَتَنَهَّدَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «افَّاتَا!» أَيِ انْفَتِحْ. | ٣٤ 34 |
Then, looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to the man, “Ephphatha!” which means ‘Be opened.’
| وَفِي الْحَالِ انْفَتَحَتْ أُذُنَاهُ وَانْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةُ لِسَانِهِ، وَتَكَلَّمَ بِطَلاقَةٍ. | ٣٥ 35 |
The man’s ears were opened, the string of his tongue was freed, and he began to talk plainly.
| وَأَوْصَاهُمْ أَنْ لَا يُخْبِرُوا أَحَداً بِذلِكَ. وَلَكِنْ كُلَّمَا أَوْصَاهُمْ أَكْثَرَ، كَانُوا يُكْثِرُونَ مِنْ إِعْلانِ الْخَبَرِ. | ٣٦ 36 |
Jesus insisted on their not telling anyone; but the more he insisted, the more perseveringly they made it known,
| وَذُهِلُوا جِدّاً، قَائِلِينَ: «مَا أَرْوَعَ كُلَّ مَا يَفْعَلُ. فَهُوَ يَجْعَلُ الصُّمَّ يَسْمَعُونَ وَالْخُرْسَ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ». | ٣٧ 37 |
and a profound impression was made on the people. “He has done everything well!” they exclaimed. “He makes even the deaf hear and the dumb speak!”
