< ١ تسالونيكي 5 >
وَأَمَّا ٱلْأَزْمِنَةُ وَٱلْأَوْقَاتُ فَلَا حَاجَةَ لَكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنْ أَكْتُبَ إِلَيْكُمْ عَنْهَا، | ١ 1 |
But as to the times and the moments, there is no need, friends, for anyone to write to you.
لِأَنَّكُمْ أَنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ بِٱلتَّحْقِيقِ أَنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ كَلِصٍّ فِي ٱللَّيْلِ هَكَذَا يَجِيءُ. | ٢ 2 |
You yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come just as a thief comes in the night.
لِأَنَّهُ حِينَمَا يَقُولُونَ: «سَلَامٌ وَأَمَانٌ»، حِينَئِذٍ يُفَاجِئُهُمْ هَلَاكٌ بَغْتَةً، كَٱلْمَخَاضِ لِلْحُبْلَى، فَلَا يَنْجُونَ. | ٣ 3 |
When people are saying “All is quiet and safe,” it is then that, like birth pains on a pregnant woman, ruin comes suddenly upon them, and there will be no escape!
وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ فَلَسْتُمْ فِي ظُلْمَةٍ حَتَّى يُدْرِكَكُمْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ كَلِصٍّ. | ٤ 4 |
You, however, friends, are not in darkness, that the daylight should take you by surprise as if you were thieves.
جَمِيعُكُمْ أَبْنَاءُ نُورٍ وَأَبْنَاءُ نَهَارٍ. لَسْنَا مِنْ لَيْلٍ وَلَا ظُلْمَةٍ. | ٥ 5 |
For you all are children of light and children of the day. We have nothing to do with night, or darkness.
فَلَا نَنَمْ إِذًا كَٱلْبَاقِينَ، بَلْ لِنَسْهَرْ وَنَصْحُ. | ٦ 6 |
Therefore let us not sleep as others do. No, let us be watchful and self-controlled.
لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَنَامُونَ فَبِاللَّيْلِ يَنَامُونَ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَسْكَرُونَ فَبِاللَّيْلِ يَسْكَرُونَ. | ٧ 7 |
It is at night that people sleep, and at night that drunkards get drunk.
وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ ٱلَّذِينَ مِنْ نَهَارٍ، فَلْنَصْحُ لَابِسِينَ دِرْعَ ٱلْإِيمَانِ وَٱلْمَحَبَّةِ، وَخُوذَةً هِيَ رَجَاءُ ٱلْخَلَاصِ. | ٨ 8 |
But let us, who belong to the day, control ourselves, and put on faith and love as a breast plate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet.
لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ لَمْ يَجْعَلْنَا لِلْغَضَبِ، بَلْ لِٱقْتِنَاءِ ٱلْخَلَاصِ بِرَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، | ٩ 9 |
For God destined us, not for wrath, but to win salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us,
ٱلَّذِي مَاتَ لِأَجْلِنَا، حَتَّى إِذَا سَهِرْنَا أَوْ نِمْنَا نَحْيَا جَمِيعًا مَعَهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
that, whether we are still watching or have fallen asleep, we may live with him.
لِذَلِكَ عَزُّوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا وَٱبْنُوا أَحَدُكُمُ ٱلْآخَرَ، كَمَا تَفْعَلُونَ أَيْضًا. | ١١ 11 |
Therefore encourage one another, and try to build up one another’s characters, as indeed you are doing.
ثُمَّ نَسْأَلُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا ٱلَّذِينَ يَتْعَبُونَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَيُدَبِّرُونَكُمْ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ وَيُنْذِرُونَكُمْ، | ١٢ 12 |
We beg you, friends, to value those who toil among you, and are your leaders in the Lord’s service, and give you counsel.
وَأَنْ تَعْتَبِرُوهُمْ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا فِي ٱلْمَحَبَّةِ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَمَلِهِمْ. سَالِمُوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا. | ١٣ 13 |
Hold them in the very greatest esteem and affection for the sake of their work. Live at peace with one another.
وَنَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ: أَنْذِرُوا ٱلَّذِينَ بِلَا تَرْتِيبٍ. شَجِّعُوا صِغَارَ ٱلنُّفُوسِ. أَسْنِدُوا ٱلضُّعَفَاءَ. تَأَنَّوْا عَلَى ٱلْجَمِيعِ. | ١٤ 14 |
We entreat you also, friends – warn the disorderly, comfort the faint-hearted, give a helping hand to the weak, and be patient with everyone.
ٱنْظُرُوا أَنْ لَا يُجَازِيَ أَحَدٌ أَحَدًا عَنْ شَرٍّ بِشَرٍّ، بَلْ كُلَّ حِينٍ ٱتَّبِعُوا ٱلْخَيْرَ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ وَلِلْجَمِيعِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Take care that none of you ever pays back wrong for wrong, but always follow the kindest course with one another and with everyone.
ٱفْرَحُوا كُلَّ حِينٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
Always be joyful;
صَلُّوا بِلَا ٱنْقِطَاعٍ. | ١٧ 17 |
never cease to pray;
ٱشْكُرُوا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، لِأَنَّ هَذِهِ هِيَ مَشِيئَةُ ٱللهِ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ مِنْ جِهَتِكُمْ. | ١٨ 18 |
under all circumstances give thanks to God. For this is his will for you as made known in Christ Jesus.
لَا تُطْفِئُوا ٱلرُّوحَ. | ١٩ 19 |
Do not quench the Spirit;
لَا تَحْتَقِرُوا ٱلنُّبُوَّاتِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
do not make light of preaching.
ٱمْتَحِنُوا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، تَمَسَّكُوا بِٱلْحَسَنِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Bring everything to the test; cling to what is good;
ٱمْتَنِعُوا عَنْ كُلِّ شِبْهِ شَرٍّ. | ٢٢ 22 |
shun every form of evil.
وَإِلَهُ ٱلسَّلَامِ نَفْسُهُ يُقَدِّسُكُمْ بِٱلتَّمَامِ. وَلْتُحْفَظْ رُوحُكُمْ وَنَفْسُكُمْ وَجَسَدُكُمْ كَامِلَةً بِلَا لَوْمٍ عِنْدَ مَجِيءِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
May God himself, the giver of peace, make you altogether holy; and may your spirits, souls, and bodies be kept altogether faultless until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
أَمِينٌ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يَدْعُوكُمُ ٱلَّذِي سَيَفْعَلُ أَيْضًا. | ٢٤ 24 |
He who calls you will not fail you; he will complete his work.
أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، صَلُّوا لِأَجْلِنَا. | ٢٥ 25 |
Friends, pray for us.
سَلِّمُوا عَلَى ٱلْإِخْوَةِ جَمِيعًا بِقُبْلَةٍ مُقَدَّسَةٍ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Greet all the Lord’s followers with a sacred kiss.
أُنَاشِدُكُمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ تُقْرَأَ هَذِهِ ٱلرِّسَالَةُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
I order you in the Lord’s name to have this letter read to all the brethren.
نِعْمَةُ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ مَعَكُمْ. آمِينَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
May the blessing of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
