١ كورنثوس 1

١ 1 بُولُسُ، ٱلْمَدْعُوُّ رَسُولًا لِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ بِمَشِيئَةِ ٱللهِ، وَسُوسْتَانِيسُ ٱلْأَخُ،

Paul, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes [our] brother,

٢ 2 إِلَى كَنِيسَةِ ٱللهِ ٱلَّتِي فِي كُورِنْثُوسَ، ٱلْمُقَدَّسِينَ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، ٱلْمَدْعُوِّينَ قِدِّيسِينَ مَعَ جَمِيعِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ بِٱسْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ، لَهُمْ وَلَنَا:

To the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours.

٣ 3 نِعْمَةٌ لَكُمْ وَسَلَامٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ أَبِينَا وَٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

Grace [be] to you, and peace from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.

٤ 4 أَشْكُرُ إِلَهِي فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ مِنْ جِهَتِكُمْ عَلَى نِعْمَةِ ٱللهِ ٱلْمُعْطَاةِ لَكُمْ فِي يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

٥ 5 أَنَّكُمْ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ ٱسْتَغْنَيْتُمْ فِيهِ فِي كُلِّ كَلِمَةٍ وَكُلِّ عِلْمٍ،

That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and [in] all knowledge;

٦ 6 كَمَا ثُبِّتَتْ فِيكُمْ شَهَادَةُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

٧ 7 حَتَّى إِنَّكُمْ لَسْتُمْ نَاقِصِينَ فِي مَوْهِبَةٍ مَّا، وَأَنْتُمْ مُتَوَقِّعُونَ ٱسْتِعْلَانَ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:

٨ 8 ٱلَّذِي سَيُثْبِتُكُمْ أَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلنِّهَايَةِ بِلَا لَوْمٍ فِي يَوْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

Who will also confirm you to the end, [that ye may be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

٩ 9 أَمِينٌ هُوَ ٱللهُ ٱلَّذِي بِهِ دُعِيتُمْ إِلَى شَرِكَةِ ٱبْنِهِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ رَبِّنَا.

God [is] faithful, by whom ye were called to the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

١٠ 10 وَلَكِنَّنِي أَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، بِٱسْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، أَنْ تَقُولُوا جَمِيعُكُمْ قَوْلًا وَاحِدًا، وَلَا يَكُونَ بَيْنَكُمُ ٱنْشِقَاقَاتٌ، بَلْ كُونُوا كَامِلِينَ فِي فِكْرٍ وَاحِدٍ وَرَأْيٍ وَاحِدٍ،

Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind, and in the same judgment.

١١ 11 لِأَنِّي أُخْبِرْتُ عَنْكُمْ يَا إِخْوَتِي مِنْ أَهْلِ خُلُوِي أَنَّ بَيْنَكُمْ خُصُومَاتٍ.

For it hath been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by them [who are of the house] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

١٢ 12 فَأَنَا أَعْنِي هَذَا: أَنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ يَقُولُ: «أَنَا لِبُولُسَ»، وَ«أَنَا لِأَبُلُّوسَ»، وَ«أَنَا لِصَفَا»، وَ«أَنَا لِلْمَسِيحِ».

Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

١٣ 13 هَلِ ٱنْقَسَمَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ؟ أَلَعَلَّ بُولُسَ صُلِبَ لِأَجْلِكُمْ، أَمْ بِٱسْمِ بُولُسَ ٱعْتَمَدْتُمْ؟

Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

١٤ 14 أَشْكُرُ ٱللهَ أَنِّي لَمْ أُعَمِّدْ أَحَدًا مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا كِرِيسْبُسَ وَغَايُسَ،

I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;

١٥ 15 حَتَّى لَا يَقُولَ أَحَدٌ إِنِّي عَمَّدْتُ بِٱسْمِي.

Lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name.

١٦ 16 وَعَمَّدْتُ أَيْضًا بَيْتَ ٱسْتِفَانُوسَ. عَدَا ذَلِكَ لَسْتُ أَعْلَمُ هَلْ عَمَّدْتُ أَحَدًا آخَرَ،

And I baptized also the household of Stephanas; besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

١٧ 17 لِأَنَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ لَمْ يُرْسِلْنِي لِأُعَمِّدَ بَلْ لِأُبَشِّرَ، لَا بِحِكْمَةِ كَلَامٍ لِئَلَّا يَتَعَطَّلَ صَلِيبُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

For Christ hath not sent me to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.

١٨ 18 فَإِنَّ كَلِمَةَ ٱلصَّلِيبِ عِنْدَ ٱلْهَالِكِينَ جَهَالَةٌ، وَأَمَّا عِنْدَنَا نَحْنُ ٱلْمُخَلَّصِينَ فَهِيَ قُوَّةُ ٱللهِ،

For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish, foolishness; but to us who are saved, it is the power of God.

١٩ 19 لِأَنَّهُ مَكْتُوبٌ: «سَأُبِيدُ حِكْمَةَ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ، وَأَرْفُضُ فَهْمَ ٱلْفُهَمَاءِ».

For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

٢٠ 20 أَيْنَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ؟ أَيْنَ ٱلْكَاتِبُ؟ أَيْنَ مُبَاحِثُ هَذَا ٱلدَّهْرِ؟ أَلَمْ يُجَهِّلِ ٱللهُ حِكْمَةَ هَذَا ٱلْعَالَمِ؟ (aiōn g165)

Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is] the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)

٢١ 21 لِأَنَّهُ إِذْ كَانَ ٱلْعَالَمُ فِي حِكْمَةِ ٱللهِ لَمْ يَعْرِفِ ٱللهَ بِٱلْحِكْمَةِ، ٱسْتَحْسَنَ ٱللهُ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِجَهَالَةِ ٱلْكِرَازَةِ.

For when in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

٢٢ 22 لِأَنَّ ٱلْيَهُودَ يَسْأَلُونَ آيَةً، وَٱلْيُونَانِيِّينَ يَطْلُبُونَ حِكْمَةً،

For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek wisdom:

٢٣ 23 وَلَكِنَّنَا نَحْنُ نَكْرِزُ بِٱلْمَسِيحِ مَصْلُوبًا: لِلْيَهُودِ عَثْرَةً، وَلِلْيُونَانِيِّينَ جَهَالَةً!

But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling-block, and to the Greeks foolishness;

٢٤ 24 وَأَمَّا لِلْمَدْعُوِّينَ: يَهُودًا وَيُونَانِيِّينَ، فَبِٱلْمَسِيحِ قُوَّةِ ٱللهِ وَحِكْمَةِ ٱللهِ.

But to them who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

٢٥ 25 لِأَنَّ جَهَالَةَ ٱللهِ أَحْكَمُ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ! وَضَعْفَ ٱللهِ أَقْوَى مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ!

Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

٢٦ 26 فَٱنْظُرُوا دَعْوَتَكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، أَنْ لَيْسَ كَثِيرُونَ حُكَمَاءَ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ، لَيْسَ كَثِيرُونَ أَقْوِيَاءَ، لَيْسَ كَثِيرُونَ شُرَفَاءَ،

For ye see your calling, brethren, that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble [are called]:

٢٧ 27 بَلِ ٱخْتَارَ ٱللهُ جُهَّالَ ٱلْعَالَمِ لِيُخْزِيَ ٱلْحُكَمَاءَ. وَٱخْتَارَ ٱللهُ ضُعَفَاءَ ٱلْعَالَمِ لِيُخْزِيَ ٱلْأَقْوِيَاءَ.

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

٢٨ 28 وَٱخْتَارَ ٱللهُ أَدْنِيَاءَ ٱلْعَالَمِ وَٱلْمُزْدَرَى وَغَيْرَ ٱلْمَوْجُودِ لِيُبْطِلَ ٱلْمَوْجُودَ،

And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, and things which are not, to bring to naught things that are:

٢٩ 29 لِكَيْ لَا يَفْتَخِرَ كُلُّ ذِي جَسَدٍ أَمَامَهُ.

That no flesh should glory in his presence.

٣٠ 30 وَمِنْهُ أَنْتُمْ بِٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، ٱلَّذِي صَارَ لَنَا حِكْمَةً مِنَ ٱللهِ وَبِرًّا وَقَدَاسَةً وَفِدَاءً.

But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who from God is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

٣١ 31 حَتَّى كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «مَنِ ٱفْتَخَرَ فَلْيَفْتَخِرْ بِٱلرَّبِّ».

That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
