< أعمال 8 >
وَكَانَ شَاوُلُ رَاضِيًا بِقَتْلِهِ. وَحَدَثَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱضْطِهَادٌ عَظِيمٌ عَلَى ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَتَشَتَّتَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ فِي كُوَرِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَٱلسَّامِرَةِ، مَا عَدَا ٱلرُّسُلَ. | ١ 1 |
Saul was consenting to his death. A great persecution arose against the church which was in Jerusalem in that day. They were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles.
وَحَمَلَ رِجَالٌ أَتْقِيَاءُ ٱسْتِفَانُوسَ وَعَمِلُوا عَلَيْهِ مَنَاحَةً عَظِيمَةً. | ٢ 2 |
Devout men buried Stephen, and lamented greatly over him.
وَأَمَّا شَاوُلُ فَكَانَ يَسْطُو عَلَى ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ، وَهُوَ يَدْخُلُ ٱلْبُيُوتَ وَيَجُرُّ رِجَالًا وَنِسَاءً وَيُسَلِّمُهُمْ إِلَى ٱلسِّجْنِ. | ٣ 3 |
But Saul ravaged the church, entering into every house, and dragged both men and women off to prison.
فَٱلَّذِينَ تَشَتَّتُوا جَالُوا مُبَشِّرِينَ بِٱلْكَلِمَةِ. | ٤ 4 |
Therefore those who were scattered abroad went around proclaiming the word.
فَٱنْحَدَرَ فِيلُبُّسُ إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ مِنَ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ وَكَانَ يَكْرِزُ لَهُمْ بِٱلْمَسِيحِ. | ٥ 5 |
And Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and proclaimed to them the Christ.
وَكَانَ ٱلْجُمُوعُ يُصْغُونَ بِنَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ إِلَى مَا يَقُولُهُ فِيلُبُّسُ عِنْدَ ٱسْتِمَاعِهِمْ وَنَظَرِهِمُ ٱلْآيَاتِ ٱلَّتِي صَنَعَهَا، | ٦ 6 |
The crowds listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philip, when they heard and saw the signs which he did.
لِأَنَّ كَثِيرِينَ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ بِهِمْ أَرْوَاحٌ نَجِسَةٌ كَانَتْ تَخْرُجُ صَارِخَةً بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ. وَكَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمَفْلُوجِينَ وَٱلْعُرْجِ شُفُوا. | ٧ 7 |
For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.
فَكَانَ فَرَحٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. | ٨ 8 |
There was great joy in that city.
وَكَانَ قَبْلًا فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٌ ٱسْمُهُ سِيمُونُ، يَسْتَعْمِلُ ٱلسِّحْرَ وَيُدْهِشُ شَعْبَ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، قَائِلًا إِنَّهُ شَيْءٌ عَظِيمٌ! | ٩ 9 |
But there was a certain man, Simon by name, who used to practice sorcery in the city, and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one,
وَكَانَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ يَتْبَعُونَهُ مِنَ ٱلصَّغِيرِ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِيرِ قَائِلِينَ: «هَذَا هُوَ قُوَّةُ ٱللهِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ». | ١٠ 10 |
to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, "This man is that power of God which is called Great."
وَكَانُوا يَتْبَعُونَهُ لِكَوْنِهِمْ قَدِ ٱنْدَهَشُوا زَمَانًا طَوِيلًا بِسِحْرِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
They listened to him, because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries.
وَلَكِنْ لَمَّا صَدَّقُوا فِيلُبُّسَ وَهُوَ يُبَشِّرُ بِٱلْأُمُورِ ٱلْمُخْتَصَّةِ بِمَلَكُوتِ ٱللهِ وَبِٱسْمِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، ٱعْتَمَدُوا رِجَالًا وَنِسَاءً. | ١٢ 12 |
But when they believed Philip as he preached good news concerning the Kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
وَسِيمُونُ أَيْضًا نَفْسُهُ آمَنَ. وَلَمَّا ٱعْتَمَدَ كَانَ يُلَازِمُ فِيلُبُّسَ، وَإِذْ رَأَى آيَاتٍ وَقُوَّاتٍ عَظِيمَةً تُجْرَى ٱنْدَهَشَ. | ١٣ 13 |
Simon himself also believed. Being baptized, he continued with Philip. Seeing signs and great miracles occurring, he was amazed.
وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلرُّسُلُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ أَنَّ ٱلسَّامِرَةَ قَدْ قَبِلَتْ كَلِمَةَ ٱللهِ، أَرْسَلُوا إِلَيْهِمْ بُطْرُسَ وَيُوحَنَّا، | ١٤ 14 |
Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,
ٱللَّذَيْنِ لَمَّا نَزَلَا صَلَّيَا لِأَجْلِهِمْ لِكَيْ يَقْبَلُوا ٱلرُّوحَ ٱلْقُدُسَ، | ١٥ 15 |
who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit;
لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ قَدْ حَلَّ بَعْدُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا مُعْتَمِدِينَ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ. | ١٦ 16 |
for he had not yet fallen upon any of them. They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
حِينَئِذٍ وَضَعَا ٱلْأَيَادِيَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَبِلُوا ٱلرُّوحَ ٱلْقُدُسَ. | ١٧ 17 |
Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
وَلَمَّا رَأَى سِيمُونُ أَنَّهُ بِوَضْعِ أَيْدِي ٱلرُّسُلِ يُعْطَى ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ قَدَّمَ لَهُمَا دَرَاهِمَ | ١٨ 18 |
Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,
قَائِلًا: «أَعْطِيَانِي أَنَا أَيْضًا هَذَا ٱلسُّلْطَانَ، حَتَّى أَيُّ مَنْ وَضَعْتُ عَلَيْهِ يَدَيَّ يَقْبَلُ ٱلرُّوحَ ٱلْقُدُسَ». | ١٩ 19 |
saying, "Give me also this power, that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit."
فَقَالَ لَهُ بُطْرُسُ: «لِتَكُنْ فِضَّتُكَ مَعَكَ لِلْهَلَاكِ، لِأَنَّكَ ظَنَنْتَ أَنْ تَقْتَنِيَ مَوْهِبَةَ ٱللهِ بِدَرَاهِمَ! | ٢٠ 20 |
But Peter said to him, "May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money.
لَيْسَ لَكَ نَصِيبٌ وَلَا قُرْعَةٌ فِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ، لِأَنَّ قَلْبَكَ لَيْسَ مُسْتَقِيمًا أَمَامَ ٱللهِ. | ٢١ 21 |
You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God.
فَتُبْ مِنْ شَرِّكَ هَذَا، وَٱطْلُبْ إِلَى ٱللهِ عَسَى أَنْ يُغْفَرَ لَكَ فِكْرُ قَلْبِكَ، | ٢٢ 22 |
Repent therefore of this, your wickedness, and ask the Lord if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.
لِأَنِّي أَرَاكَ فِي مَرَارَةِ ٱلْمُرِّ وَرِبَاطِ ٱلظُّلْمِ». | ٢٣ 23 |
For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity."
فَأَجَابَ سِيمُونُ وَقَالَ: «ٱطْلُبَا أَنْتُمَا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ مِنْ أَجْلِي لِكَيْ لَا يَأْتِيَ عَلَيَّ شَيْءٌ مِمَّا ذَكَرْتُمَا». | ٢٤ 24 |
Simon answered, "Pray for me to the Lord, that none of the things which you have spoken happen to me."
ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمَا بَعْدَ مَا شَهِدَا وَتَكَلَّمَا بِكَلِمَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ، رَجَعَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ وَبَشَّرَا قُرًى كَثِيرَةً لِلسَّامِرِيِّينَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
They therefore, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the Good News to many villages of the Samaritans.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ مَلَاكَ ٱلرَّبِّ كَلَّمَ فِيلُبُّسَ قَائِلًا: «قُمْ وَٱذْهَبْ نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلْمُنْحَدِرَةِ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى غَزَّةَ ٱلَّتِي هِيَ بَرِّيَّةٌ». | ٢٦ 26 |
But an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, "Arise, and go toward the south to the way that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert."
فَقَامَ وَذَهَبَ. وَإِذَا رَجُلٌ حَبَشِيٌّ خَصِيٌّ، وَزِيرٌ لِكَنْدَاكَةَ مَلِكَةِ ٱلْحَبَشَةِ، كَانَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ خَزَائِنِهَا. فَهَذَا كَانَ قَدْ جَاءَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيَسْجُدَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
And he arose and went. And look, there was a man from Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Kandake, the queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge over all her treasure. He had come to Jerusalem to worship,
وَكَانَ رَاجِعًا وَجَالِسًا عَلَى مَرْكَبَتِهِ وَهُوَ يَقْرَأُ ٱلنَّبِيَّ إِشَعْيَاءَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
and he was returning. And sitting in his chariot, he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
فَقَالَ ٱلرُّوحُ لِفِيلُبُّسَ: «تَقَدَّمْ وَرَافِقْ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَرْكَبَةَ». | ٢٩ 29 |
And the Spirit said to Philip, "Go and join up with that chariot."
فَبَادَرَ إِلَيْهِ فِيلُبُّسُ، وَسَمِعَهُ يَقْرَأُ ٱلنَّبِيَّ إِشَعْيَاءَ، فَقَالَ: «أَلَعَلَّكَ تَفْهَمُ مَا أَنْتَ تَقْرَأُ؟». | ٣٠ 30 |
And running near, Philip heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, "Do you understand what you are reading?"
فَقَالَ: «كَيْفَ يُمْكِنُنِي إِنْ لَمْ يُرْشِدْنِي أَحَدٌ؟». وَطَلَبَ إِلَى فِيلُبُّسَ أَنْ يَصْعَدَ وَيَجْلِسَ مَعَهُ. | ٣١ 31 |
He said, "How can I, unless someone explains it to me?" So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
وَأَمَّا فَصْلُ ٱلْكِتَابِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَقْرَأُهُ فَكَانَ هَذَا: «مِثْلَ شَاةٍ سِيقَ إِلَى ٱلذَّبْحِ، وَمِثْلَ خَرُوفٍ صَامِتٍ أَمَامَ ٱلَّذِي يَجُزُّهُ هَكَذَا لَمْ يَفْتَحْ فَاهُ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this, "He was led like a sheep to the slaughter, and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he does not open his mouth.
فِي تَوَاضُعِهِ ٱنْتُزِعَ قَضَاؤُهُ، وَجِيلُهُ مَنْ يُخْبِرُ بِهِ؟ لِأَنَّ حَيَاتَهُ تُنْتَزَعُ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ٣٣ 33 |
In his humiliation his justice was taken away. Who will declare his generation? For his life is taken from the earth."
فَأَجَابَ ٱلْخَصِيُّ فِيلُبُّسَ وَقَالَ: «أَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكَ: عَنْ مَنْ يَقُولُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ هَذَا؟ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ أَمْ عَنْ وَاحِدٍ آخَرَ؟». | ٣٤ 34 |
The eunuch answered Philip, "Who is the prophet talking about? About himself, or about someone else?"
فَفَتَحَ فِيلُبُّسُ فَاهُ وٱبْتَدَأَ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ فَبَشِّرَهُ بِيَسُوعَ. | ٣٥ 35 |
Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture, preached to him Jesus.
وَفِيمَا هُمَا سَائِرَانِ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ أَقْبَلَا عَلَى مَاءٍ، فَقَالَ ٱلْخَصِيُّ: «هُوَذَا مَاءٌ. مَاذَا يَمْنَعُ أَنْ أَعْتَمِدَ؟». | ٣٦ 36 |
As they went on the way, they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "Look, here is water. What is keeping me from being baptized?"
فَقَالَ فِيلُبُّسُ: «إِنْ كُنْتَ تُؤْمِنُ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِكَ يَجُوزُ». فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ: «أَنَا أُومِنُ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحَ هُوَ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ». | ٣٧ 37 |
And he said to him, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."
فَأَمَرَ أَنْ تَقِفَ ٱلْمَرْكَبَةُ، فَنَزَلَا كِلَاهُمَا إِلَى ٱلْمَاءِ، فِيلُبُّسُ وَٱلْخَصِيُّ، فَعَمَّدَهُ. | ٣٨ 38 |
He commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
وَلَمَّا صَعِدَا مِنَ ٱلْمَاءِ، خَطِفَ رُوحُ ٱلرَّبِّ فِيلُبُّسَ، فَلَمْ يُبْصِرْهُ ٱلْخَصِيُّ أَيْضًا، وَذَهَبَ فِي طَرِيقِهِ فَرِحًا. | ٣٩ 39 |
When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him any more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
وَأَمَّا فِيلُبُّسُ فَوُجِدَ فِي أَشْدُودَ. وَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ مُجْتَازٌ، كَانَ يُبَشِّرُ جَمِيعَ ٱلْمُدُنِ حَتَّى جَاءَ إِلَى قَيْصَرِيَّةَ. | ٤٠ 40 |
But Philip was found at Azotus. Passing through, he preached the Good News to all the cities, until he came to Caesarea.
