١ تسالونيكي 5

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

But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

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

For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh 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 cometh upon them, as travail 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 ye, 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.

Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the 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 they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be 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, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

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

For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by 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 should live together with him.

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

Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

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

And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

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

And to esteem them very highly in love for their work’s sake. [And] be at peace among yourselves.

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

Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all [men].

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

See that none render evil for evil unto any [man]; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all [men].

١٦ 16 ٱفْرَحُوا كُلَّ حِينٍ.

Rejoice evermore.

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 all appearance of evil.

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

And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and [I pray God] your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

٢٤ 24 أَمِينٌ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يَدْعُوكُمُ ٱلَّذِي سَيَفْعَلُ أَيْضًا.

Faithful [is] he that calleth you, who also will do [it.]

٢٥ 25 أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، صَلُّوا لِأَجْلِنَا.

Brethren, pray for us.

٢٦ 26 سَلِّمُوا عَلَى ٱلْإِخْوَةِ جَمِيعًا بِقُبْلَةٍ مُقَدَّسَةٍ.

Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.

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

I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.

٢٨ 28 نِعْمَةُ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ مَعَكُمْ. آمِينَ.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you. Amen.
