١ بطرس 4

١ 1 فَإِذْ قَدْ تَأَلَّمَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ لِأَجْلِنَا بِٱلْجَسَدِ، تَسَلَّحُوا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا بِهَذِهِ ٱلنِّيَّةِ. فَإِنَّ مَنْ تَأَلَّمَ فِي ٱلْجَسَدِ، كُفَّ عَنِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ،

Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;

٢ 2 لِكَيْ لَا يَعِيشَ أَيْضًا ٱلزَّمَانَ ٱلْبَاقِيَ فِي ٱلْجَسَدِ، لِشَهَوَاتِ ٱلنَّاسِ، بَلْ لِإِرَادَةِ ٱللهِ.

That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

٣ 3 لِأَنَّ زَمَانَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ ٱلَّذِي مَضَى يَكْفِينَا لِنَكُونَ قَدْ عَمِلْنَا إِرَادَةَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، سَالِكِينَ فِي ٱلدَّعَارَةِ وَٱلشَّهَوَاتِ، وَإِدْمَانِ ٱلْخَمْرِ، وَٱلْبَطَرِ، وَٱلْمُنَادَمَاتِ، وَعِبَادَةِ ٱلْأَوْثَانِ ٱلْمُحَرَّمَةِ،

For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:

٤ 4 ٱلْأَمْرُ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ يَسْتَغْرِبُونَ أَنَّكُمْ لَسْتُمْ تَرْكُضُونَ مَعَهُمْ إِلَى فَيْضِ هَذِهِ ٱلْخَلَاعَةِ عَيْنِهَا، مُجَدِّفِينَ.

Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:

٥ 5 ٱلَّذِينَ سَوْفَ يُعْطُونَ حِسَابًا لِلَّذِي هُوَ عَلَى ٱسْتِعْدَادٍ أَنْ يَدِينَ ٱلْأَحْيَاءَ وَٱلْأَمْوَاتَ.

Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.

٦ 6 فَإِنَّهُ لِأَجْلِ هَذَا بُشِّرَ ٱلْمَوْتَى أَيْضًا، لِكَيْ يُدَانُوا حَسَبَ ٱلنَّاسِ بِٱلْجَسَدِ، وَلَكِنْ لِيَحْيَوْا حَسَبَ ٱللهِ بِٱلرُّوحِ.

For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

٧ 7 وَإِنَّمَا نِهَايَةُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِ ٱقْتَرَبَتْ، فَتَعَقَّلُوا وَٱصْحُوا لِلصَّلَوَاتِ.

But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.

٨ 8 وَلَكِنْ قَبْلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، لِتَكُنْ مَحَبَّتُكُمْ بَعْضِكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ شَدِيدَةً، لِأَنَّ ٱلْمَحَبَّةَ تَسْتُرُ كَثْرَةً مِنَ ٱلْخَطَايَا.

And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

٩ 9 كُونُوا مُضِيفِينَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا بِلَا دَمْدَمَةٍ.

Use hospitality one to another without grudging.

١٠ 10 لِيَكُنْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ بِحَسَبِ مَا أَخَذَ مَوْهِبَةً، يَخْدِمُ بِهَا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا، كَوُكَلَاءَ صَالِحِينَ عَلَى نِعْمَةِ ٱللهِ ٱلْمُتَنَوِّعَةِ.

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

١١ 11 إِنْ كَانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ أَحَدٌ فَكَأَقْوَالِ ٱللهِ. وَإِنْ كَانَ يَخْدِمُ أَحَدٌ فَكَأَنَّهُ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ يَمْنَحُهَا ٱللهُ، لِكَيْ يَتَمَجَّدَ ٱللهُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ بِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، ٱلَّذِي لَهُ ٱلْمَجْدُ وَٱلسُّلْطَانُ إِلَى أَبَدِ ٱلْآبِدِينَ. آمِينَ. (aiōn g165)

If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

١٢ 12 أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَحِبَّاءُ، لَا تَسْتَغْرِبُوا ٱلْبَلْوَى ٱلْمُحْرِقَةَ ٱلَّتِي بَيْنَكُمْ حَادِثَةٌ، لِأَجْلِ ٱمْتِحَانِكُمْ، كَأَنَّهُ أَصَابَكُمْ أَمْرٌ غَرِيبٌ،

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:

١٣ 13 بَلْ كَمَا ٱشْتَرَكْتُمْ فِي آلَامِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، ٱفْرَحُوا لِكَيْ تَفْرَحُوا فِي ٱسْتِعْلَانِ مَجْدِهِ أَيْضًا مُبْتَهِجِينَ.

But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

١٤ 14 إِنْ عُيِّرْتُمْ بِٱسْمِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، فَطُوبَى لَكُمْ، لِأَنَّ رُوحَ ٱلْمَجْدِ وَٱللهِ يَحِلُّ عَلَيْكُمْ. أَمَّا مِنْ جِهَتِهِمْ فَيُجَدَّفُ عَلَيْهِ، وَأَمَّا مِنْ جِهَتِكُمْ فَيُمَجَّدُ.

If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.

١٥ 15 فَلَا يَتَأَلَّمْ أَحَدُكُمْ كَقَاتِلٍ، أَوْ سَارِقٍ، أَوْ فَاعِلِ شَرٍّ، أَوْ مُتَدَاخِلٍ فِي أُمُورِ غَيْرِهِ.

But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters.

١٦ 16 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ كَمَسِيحِيٍّ، فَلَا يَخْجَلْ، بَلْ يُمَجِّدُ ٱللهَ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْقَبِيلِ.

Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

١٧ 17 لِأَنَّهُ ٱلْوَقْتُ لِٱبْتِدَاءِ ٱلْقَضَاءِ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ. فَإِنْ كَانَ أَوَّلًا مِنَّا، فَمَا هِيَ نِهَايَةُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يُطِيعُونَ إِنْجِيلَ ٱللهِ؟

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

١٨ 18 وَ«إِنْ كَانَ ٱلْبَارُّ بِٱلْجَهْدِ يَخْلُصُ، فَٱلْفَاجِرُ وَٱلْخَاطِئُ أَيْنَ يَظْهَرَانِ؟»

And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

١٩ 19 فَإِذًا، ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَأَلَّمُونَ بِحَسَبِ مَشِيئَةِ ٱللهِ، فَلْيَسْتَوْدِعُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ، كَمَا لِخَالِقٍ أَمِينٍ، فِي عَمَلِ ٱلْخَيْرِ.

Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
