١ تسالونيكي 5

١ 1 وَأَمَّا ٱلْأَزْمِنَةُ وَٱلْأَوْقَاتُ فَلَا حَاجَةَ لَكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنْ أَكْتُبَ إِلَيْكُمْ عَنْهَا،

But, brethren, you have no need that I write to you of the times and seasons;

٢ 2 لِأَنَّكُمْ أَنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ بِٱلتَّحْقِيقِ أَنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ كَلِصٍّ فِي ٱللَّيْلِ هَكَذَا يَجِيءُ.

for you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night:

٣ 3 لِأَنَّهُ حِينَمَا يَقُولُونَ: «سَلَامٌ وَأَمَانٌ»، حِينَئِذٍ يُفَاجِئُهُمْ هَلَاكٌ بَغْتَةً، كَٱلْمَخَاضِ لِلْحُبْلَى، فَلَا يَنْجُونَ.

for when they shall say, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction comes upon them, as the pains of birth upon a woman with child, and they shall not escape.

٤ 4 وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ فَلَسْتُمْ فِي ظُلْمَةٍ حَتَّى يُدْرِكَكُمْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ كَلِصٍّ.

But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

٥ 5 جَمِيعُكُمْ أَبْنَاءُ نُورٍ وَأَبْنَاءُ نَهَارٍ. لَسْنَا مِنْ لَيْلٍ وَلَا ظُلْمَةٍ.

You are all sons of light, and sons of day: we are not of night, nor of darkness.

٦ 6 فَلَا نَنَمْ إِذًا كَٱلْبَاقِينَ، بَلْ لِنَسْهَرْ وَنَصْحُ.

Therefore, let us not sleep, as do others, but let us watch and be sober.

٧ 7 لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَنَامُونَ فَبِاللَّيْلِ يَنَامُونَ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَسْكَرُونَ فَبِاللَّيْلِ يَسْكَرُونَ.

For those who sleep, sleep in the night; and those who are drunken, are drunken in the night.

٨ 8 وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ ٱلَّذِينَ مِنْ نَهَارٍ، فَلْنَصْحُ لَابِسِينَ دِرْعَ ٱلْإِيمَانِ وَٱلْمَحَبَّةِ، وَخُوذَةً هِيَ رَجَاءُ ٱلْخَلَاصِ.

But let us, who are of the day, be sober, having on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet, the hope of salvation:

٩ 9 لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ لَمْ يَجْعَلْنَا لِلْغَضَبِ، بَلْ لِٱقْتِنَاءِ ٱلْخَلَاصِ بِرَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

for God has not appointed us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

١٠ 10 ٱلَّذِي مَاتَ لِأَجْلِنَا، حَتَّى إِذَا سَهِرْنَا أَوْ نِمْنَا نَحْيَا جَمِيعًا مَعَهُ.

who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we might live together with him.

١١ 11 لِذَلِكَ عَزُّوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا وَٱبْنُوا أَحَدُكُمُ ٱلْآخَرَ، كَمَا تَفْعَلُونَ أَيْضًا.

Wherefore, exhort one another, and edify one another, as you also do.

١٢ 12 ثُمَّ نَسْأَلُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا ٱلَّذِينَ يَتْعَبُونَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَيُدَبِّرُونَكُمْ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ وَيُنْذِرُونَكُمْ،

Now we beseech you, brethren, to have regard for those who labor among you, and preside over you in the Lord, and admonish you,

١٣ 13 وَأَنْ تَعْتَبِرُوهُمْ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا فِي ٱلْمَحَبَّةِ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَمَلِهِمْ. سَالِمُوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا.

and that you esteem them very highly in love on account of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.

١٤ 14 وَنَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ: أَنْذِرُوا ٱلَّذِينَ بِلَا تَرْتِيبٍ. شَجِّعُوا صِغَارَ ٱلنُّفُوسِ. أَسْنِدُوا ٱلضُّعَفَاءَ. تَأَنَّوْا عَلَى ٱلْجَمِيعِ.

We exhort you, brethren, admonish the unruly, comfort the faint-hearted, earnestly care for the weak-minded, be of a long-suffering disposition toward all.

١٥ 15 ٱنْظُرُوا أَنْ لَا يُجَازِيَ أَحَدٌ أَحَدًا عَنْ شَرٍّ بِشَرٍّ، بَلْ كُلَّ حِينٍ ٱتَّبِعُوا ٱلْخَيْرَ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ وَلِلْجَمِيعِ.

See that no one render evil for evil to any, but always pursue that which is good toward one another and toward all.

١٦ 16 ٱفْرَحُوا كُلَّ حِينٍ.

Rejoice always;

١٧ 17 صَلُّوا بِلَا ٱنْقِطَاعٍ.

pray without ceasing;

١٨ 18 ٱشْكُرُوا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، لِأَنَّ هَذِهِ هِيَ مَشِيئَةُ ٱللهِ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ مِنْ جِهَتِكُمْ.

in every thing give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

١٩ 19 لَا تُطْفِئُوا ٱلرُّوحَ.

Quench not the Spirit.

٢٠ 20 لَا تَحْتَقِرُوا ٱلنُّبُوَّاتِ.

Despise not prophesyings.

٢١ 21 ٱمْتَحِنُوا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، تَمَسَّكُوا بِٱلْحَسَنِ.

Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

٢٢ 22 ٱمْتَنِعُوا عَنْ كُلِّ شِبْهِ شَرٍّ.

Abstain from every appearance of evil.

٢٣ 23 وَإِلَهُ ٱلسَّلَامِ نَفْسُهُ يُقَدِّسُكُمْ بِٱلتَّمَامِ. وَلْتُحْفَظْ رُوحُكُمْ وَنَفْسُكُمْ وَجَسَدُكُمْ كَامِلَةً بِلَا لَوْمٍ عِنْدَ مَجِيءِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

Now the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

٢٤ 24 أَمِينٌ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يَدْعُوكُمُ ٱلَّذِي سَيَفْعَلُ أَيْضًا.

Faithful is he that calls you; and he will do what he has promised.

٢٥ 25 أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، صَلُّوا لِأَجْلِنَا.

Brethren, pray for us.

٢٦ 26 سَلِّمُوا عَلَى ٱلْإِخْوَةِ جَمِيعًا بِقُبْلَةٍ مُقَدَّسَةٍ.

Salute all the brethren with a holy kiss.

٢٧ 27 أُنَاشِدُكُمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ تُقْرَأَ هَذِهِ ٱلرِّسَالَةُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ.

I adjure you by the Lord, that this letter be read to all the holy brethren.

٢٨ 28 نِعْمَةُ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ مَعَكُمْ. آمِينَ.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
