أعمال 16
| ثُمَّ وَصَلَ إِلَى دَرْبَةَ وَلِسْتَرَةَ، وَإِذَا تِلْمِيذٌ كَانَ هُنَاكَ ٱسْمُهُ تِيمُوثَاوُسُ، ٱبْنُ ٱمْرَأَةٍ يَهُودِيَّةٍ مُؤْمِنَةٍ وَلَكِنَّ أَبَاهُ يُونَانِيٌّ، | ١ 1 |
And he came to the city Derbe, and to Lystra. And there was a certain disciple there, whose name was Timothy, the son of a believing Jewess, but his father was a Gentile.
| وَكَانَ مَشْهُودًا لَهُ مِنَ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي لِسْتَرَةَ وَإِيقُونِيَةَ. | ٢ 2 |
And all the disciples of Lystra and Iconium gave good testimony of him.
| فَأَرَادَ بُولُسُ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ هَذَا مَعَهُ، فَأَخَذَهُ وَخَتَنَهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْيَهُودِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَمَاكِنِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْجَمِيعَ كَانُوا يَعْرِفُونَ أَبَاهُ أَنَّهُ يُونَانِيٌّ. | ٣ 3 |
Him Paul was disposed to take with him: and he took him, and circumcised him, because of the Jews that were in that region; for they all knew that his father was a Gentile.
| وَإِذْ كَانُوا يَجْتَازُونَ فِي ٱلْمُدُنِ كَانُوا يُسَلِّمُونَهُمُ ٱلْقَضَايَا ٱلَّتِي حَكَمَ بِهَا ٱلرُّسُلُ وَٱلْمَشَايِخُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيَحْفَظُوهَا. | ٤ 4 |
And as they went among the cities, they preached and taught them, that they should observe those injunctions which the legates and Elders at Jerusalem had written.
| فَكَانَتِ ٱلْكَنَائِسُ تَتَشَدَّدُ فِي ٱلْإِيمَانِ وَتَزْدَادُ فِي ٱلْعَدَدِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ. | ٥ 5 |
And so were the churches established in the faith, and were increased in number daily.
| وَبَعْدَ مَا ٱجْتَازُوا فِي فِرِيجِيَّةَ وَكُورَةِ غَلَاطِيَّةَ، مَنَعَهُمُ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمُوا بِٱلْكَلِمَةِ فِي أَسِيَّا. | ٦ 6 |
And they travelled through the regions of Phrygia and Galatia; and the Holy Spirit forbid them to speak the word of God in Asia.
| فَلَمَّا أَتَوْا إِلَى مِيسِيَّا حَاوَلُوا أَنْ يَذْهَبُوا إِلَى بِثِينِيَّةَ، فَلَمْ يَدَعْهُمُ ٱلرُّوحُ. | ٧ 7 |
And when they came into the region of Mysia, they were disposed to go from there into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus permitted them not.
| فَمَرُّوا عَلَى مِيسِيَّا وَٱنْحَدَرُوا إِلَى تَرُوَاسَ. | ٨ 8 |
And when they departed from Mysia, they came down to the region of Troas.
| وَظَهَرَتْ لِبُولُسَ رُؤْيَا فِي ٱللَّيْلِ: رَجُلٌ مَكِدُونِيٌّ قَائِمٌ يَطْلُبُ إِلَيْهِ وَيَقُولُ: «ٱعْبُرْ إِلَى مَكِدُونِيَّةَ وَأَعِنَّا!». | ٩ 9 |
And in a vision of the night, there appeared unto Paul, a man of Macedonia, who stood and besought him, saying: Come to Macedonia and help us.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى ٱلرُّؤْيَا لِلْوَقْتِ طَلَبْنَا أَنْ نَخْرُجَ إِلَى مَكِدُونِيَّةَ، مُتَحَقِّقِينَ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ دَعَانَا لِنُبَشِّرَهُمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
And when Paul had seen this vision, immediately we were desirous to depart for Macedonia; because we inferred, that our Lord called us to preach to them.
| فَأَقْلَعْنَا مِنْ تَرُوَاسَ وَتَوَجَّهْنَا بِٱلِٱسْتِقَامَةِ إِلَى سَامُوثْرَاكِي، وَفِي ٱلْغَدِ إِلَى نِيَابُولِيسَ. | ١١ 11 |
And we sailed from Troas, and came direct to Samothrace; and from there, on the following day, we came to the city Neapolis.
| وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى فِيلِبِّي، ٱلَّتِي هِيَ أَوَّلُ مَدِينَةٍ مِنْ مُقَاطَعَةِ مَكِدُونِيَّةَ، وَهِيَ كُولُونِيَّةُ. فَأَقَمْنَا فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ أَيَّامًا. | ١٢ 12 |
And from there to Philippi, which is the chief city of Macedonia, and is a colony. And we remained in that city certain days.
| وَفِي يَوْمِ ٱلسَّبْتِ خَرَجْنَا إِلَى خَارِجِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ عِنْدَ نَهْرٍ، حَيْثُ جَرَتِ ٱلْعَادَةُ أَنْ تَكُونَ صَلَاةٌ، فَجَلَسْنَا وَكُنَّا نُكَلِّمُ ٱلنِّسَاءَ ٱللَّوَاتِي ٱجْتَمَعْنَ. | ١٣ 13 |
And on the sabbath day, we went without the gate of the city to the side of a river, because a house of prayer was seen there. And when we were seated, we conversed with the women who there assembled.
| فَكَانَتْ تَسْمَعُ ٱمْرَأَةٌ ٱسْمُهَا لِيدِيَّةُ، بَيَّاعَةُ أُرْجُوَانٍ مِنْ مَدِينَةِ ثَيَاتِيرَا، مُتَعَبِّدَةٌ لِلهِ، فَفَتَحَ ٱلرَّبُّ قَلْبَهَا لِتُصْغِيَ إِلَى مَا كَانَ يَقُولُهُ بُولُسُ. | ١٤ 14 |
And a certain woman who feared God, a seller of purple, whose name was Lydia, from the city of Thyatira, was there. Her heart our Lord opened, and she hearkened to what Paul spake.
| فَلَمَّا ٱعْتَمَدَتْ هِيَ وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِهَا طَلَبَتْ قَائِلَةً: «إِنْ كُنْتُمْ قَدْ حَكَمْتُمْ أَنِّي مُؤْمِنَةٌ بِٱلرَّبِّ، فَٱدْخُلُوا بَيْتِي وَٱمْكُثُوا». فَأَلْزَمَتْنَا. | ١٥ 15 |
And she was baptized, and her household. And she entreated us, saying: If ye are really persuaded that I have believed in our Lord, come and take lodging in my house. And she urged us much.
| وَحَدَثَ بَيْنَمَا كُنَّا ذَاهِبِينَ إِلَى ٱلصَّلَاةِ، أَنَّ جَارِيَةً بِهَا رُوحُ عِرَافَةٍ ٱسْتَقْبَلَتْنَا. وَكَانَتْ تُكْسِبُ مَوَالِيَهَا مَكْسَبًا كَثِيرًا بِعِرَافَتِهَا. | ١٦ 16 |
And it occurred that, as we were going to the house of prayer, a certain maid met us, who had a spirit of divination, and who procured for her lords great gain by the divination which she performed.
| هَذِهِ ٱتَّبَعَتْ بُولُسَ وَإِيَّانَا وَصَرَخَتْ قَائِلَةً: «هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلنَّاسُ هُمْ عَبِيدُ ٱللهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ، ٱلَّذِينَ يُنَادُونَ لَكُمْ بِطَرِيقِ ٱلْخَلَاصِ». | ١٧ 17 |
And she followed after Paul and us, and cried, saying: These men are the servants of the Most High God, and they announce to you the way of life.
| وَكَانَتْ تَفْعَلُ هَذَا أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً. فَضَجِرَ بُولُسُ وَٱلْتَفَتَ إِلَى ٱلرُّوحِ وَقَالَ: «أَنَا آمُرُكَ بِٱسْمِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ مِنْهَا!». فَخَرَجَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ. | ١٨ 18 |
And this she did many days. And Paul was indignant; and he said to that spirit, I command thee, in the name of Jesus Messiah, that thou come out of her. And it came out the same hour.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَوَالِيهَا أَنَّهُ قَدْ خَرَجَ رَجَاءُ مَكْسَبِهِمْ، أَمْسَكُوا بُولُسَ وَسِيلَا وَجَرُّوهُمَا إِلَى ٱلسُّوقِ إِلَى ٱلْحُكَّامِ. | ١٩ 19 |
And when her lords saw that the prospect of their gain from her was gone, they seized Paul and Silas, and dragging them along brought them to the market-place,
| وَإِذْ أَتَوْا بِهِمَا إِلَى ٱلْوُلَاةِ، قَالُوا: «هَذَانِ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ يُبَلْبِلَانِ مَدِينَتَنَا، وَهُمَا يَهُودِيَّانِ، | ٢٠ 20 |
and set them before the prefects and chiefs of the city, and said: These men disturb our city; for they are Jews,
| وَيُنَادِيَانِ بِعَوَائِدَ لَا يَجُوزُ لَنَا أَنْ نَقْبَلَهَا وَلَا نَعْمَلَ بِهَا، إِذْ نَحْنُ رُومَانِيُّونَ». | ٢١ 21 |
and they preach to us customs, which it is not lawful for us to receive and to practise, because we are Romans.
| فَقَامَ ٱلْجَمْعُ مَعًا عَلَيْهِمَا، وَمَزَّقَ ٱلْوُلَاةُ ثِيَابَهُمَا وَأَمَرُوا أَنْ يُضْرَبَا بِٱلْعِصِيِّ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And a great company was collected against them. Then the prefects rent their garments, and commanded to scourge them.
| فَوَضَعُوا عَلَيْهِمَا ضَرَبَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً وَأَلْقُوهُمَا فِي ٱلسِّجْنِ، وَأَوْصَوْا حَافِظَ ٱلسِّجْنِ أَنْ يَحْرُسَهُمَا بِضَبْطٍ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And when they had scourged them much, they cast them into the prison, and commanded the keeper of the prison to keep them with care.
| وَهُوَ إِذْ أَخَذَ وَصِيَّةً مِثْلَ هَذِهِ، أَلْقَاهُمَا فِي ٱلسِّجْنِ ٱلدَّاخِلِيِّ، وَضَبَطَ أَرْجُلَهُمَا فِي ٱلْمِقْطَرَةِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And he, having received this command, carried and immured them in the inner part of the prison, and confined their feet in the stocks.
| وَنَحْوَ نِصْفِ ٱللَّيْلِ كَانَ بُولُسُ وَسِيلَا يُصَلِّيَانِ وَيُسَبِّحَانِ ٱللهَ، وَٱلْمَسْجُونُونَ يَسْمَعُونَهُمَا. | ٢٥ 25 |
And at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and glorifying God: and the prisoners heard them.
| فَحَدَثَ بَغْتَةً زَلْزَلَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ حَتَّى تَزَعْزَعَتْ أَسَاسَاتُ ٱلسِّجْنِ، فَٱنْفَتَحَتْ فِي ٱلْحَالِ ٱلْأَبْوَابُ كُلُّهَا، وَٱنْفَكَّتْ قُيُودُ ٱلْجَمِيعِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And suddenly there was a great shaking, and the foundations of the prison were moved; and at once all the doors opened, and the bands of all were loosed.
| وَلَمَّا ٱسْتَيْقَظَ حَافِظُ ٱلسِّجْنِ، وَرَأَى أَبْوَابَ ٱلسِّجْنِ مَفْتُوحَةً، ٱسْتَلَّ سَيْفَهُ وَكَانَ مُزْمِعًا أَنْ يَقْتُلَ نَفْسَهُ، ظَانًّا أَنَّ ٱلْمَسْجُونِينَ قَدْ هَرَبُوا. | ٢٧ 27 |
And when the keeper of the prison awoke, and saw that the doors of the prison were open, he took a sword and sought to kill himself; because he supposed the prisoners had escaped.
| فَنَادَى بُولُسُ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ قَائِلًا: «لَا تَفْعَلْ بِنَفْسِكَ شَيْئًا رَدِيًّا! لِأَنَّ جَمِيعَنَا هَهُنَا!». | ٢٨ 28 |
But Paul called to him, in a loud voice, and said: Do thyself no harm, for we are all here.
| فَطَلَبَ ضَوْءًا وَٱنْدَفَعَ إِلَى دَاخِلٍ، وَخَرَّ لِبُولُسَ وَسِيلَا وَهُوَ مُرْتَعِدٌ، | ٢٩ 29 |
And he lighted for himself a lamp, and sprang and came in, trembling, and fell at the feet of Paul and Silas.
| ثُمَّ أَخْرَجَهُمَا وَقَالَ: «يَا سَيِّدَيَّ، مَاذَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ أَفْعَلَ لِكَيْ أَخْلُصَ؟». | ٣٠ 30 |
And he brought them out, and said to them: My lords, what must I do, that I may have life?
| فَقَالَا: «آمِنْ بِٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فَتَخْلُصَ أَنْتَ وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِكَ». | ٣١ 31 |
And they said to him: Believe on the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah, and thou wilt have life, thou and thy house.
| وَكَلَّمَاهُ وَجَمِيعَ مَنْ فِي بَيْتِهِ بِكَلِمَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٣٢ 32 |
And they spoke the word of the Lord to him, and to all the members of his house.
| فَأَخَذَهُمَا فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ مِنَ ٱللَّيْلِ وَغَسَّلَهُمَا مِنَ ٱلْجِرَاحَاتِ، وَٱعْتَمَدَ فِي ٱلْحَالِ هُوَ وَٱلَّذِينَ لَهُ أَجْمَعُونَ. | ٣٣ 33 |
And the same hour of the night, he took and washed them from their stripes; and he was baptized immediately, he and all the members of his house.
| وَلَمَّا أَصْعَدَهُمَا إِلَى بَيْتِهِ قَدَّمَ لَهُمَا مَائِدَةً، وَتَهَلَّلَ مَعَ جَمِيعِ بَيْتِهِ إِذْ كَانَ قَدْ آمَنَ بِٱللهِ. | ٣٤ 34 |
And he took them and brought them into his house, and set a table for them; and he rejoiced in the faith of God, he and all the members of his house.
| وَلَمَّا صَارَ ٱلنَّهَارُ أَرْسَلَ ٱلْوُلَاةُ ٱلْجَلَّادِينَ قَائِلِينَ: «أَطْلِقْ ذَيْنِكَ ٱلرَّجُلَيْنِ». | ٣٥ 35 |
And when it was morning, the prefects sent rod-bearers to say to the superior of the prison: Let those men loose.
| فَأَخْبَرَ حَافِظُ ٱلسِّجْنِ بُولُسَ بِهَذا ٱلكَلَامِ أَنَّ ٱلْوُلَاةَ قَدْ أَرْسَلُوا أَنْ تُطْلَقَا، فَٱخْرُجَا ٱلْآنَ وَٱذْهَبَا بِسَلَامٍ. | ٣٦ 36 |
And when the superior of the prison heard it, he went in, and said the same thing to Paul; namely, that the prefects have sent word that ye be set free. And now, said he, Go ye out, and depart in peace.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ بُولُسُ: «ضَرَبُونَا جَهْرًا غَيْرَ مَقْضِيٍّ عَلَيْنَا، وَنَحْنُ رَجُلَانِ رُومَانِيَّانِ، وَأَلْقَوْنَا فِي ٱلسِّجْنِ. أَفَٱلْآنَ يَطْرُدُونَنَا سِرًّا؟ كَلَّا! بَلْ لِيَأْتُوا هُمْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ وَيُخْرِجُونَا». | ٣٧ 37 |
But Paul said to him: They have scourged us, unoffending men, and Romans, before all the world, and have cast us into prison; and now, do they secretly let us out? No, surely: but let them come themselves and bring us out.
| فَأَخْبَرَ ٱلْجَلَّادُونَ ٱلْوُلَاةَ بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ، فَٱخْتَشَوْا لَمَّا سَمِعُوا أَنَّهُمَا رُومَانِيَّانِ. | ٣٨ 38 |
And the rod-bearers went and told to the prefects the words which were told to them: and when they heard that they were Romans, they were afraid,
| فَجَاءُوا وَتَضَرَّعُوا إِلَيْهِمَا وَأَخْرَجُوهُمَا، وَسَأَلُوهُمَا أَنْ يَخْرُجَا مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. | ٣٩ 39 |
and came to them, and entreated of them that they would come out, and that they would leave the city.
| فَخَرَجَا مِنَ ٱلسِّجْنِ وَدَخَلَا عِنْدَ لِيدِيَّةَ، فَأَبْصَرَا ٱلْإِخْوَةَ وَعَزَّيَاهُمْ ثُمَّ خَرَجَا. | ٤٠ 40 |
And when they came out from the prison, they entered the house of Lydia; and there they saw the brethren, and comforted them, and departed.
