< أعمال 9 >
أَمَّا شَاوُلُ فَكَانَ لَمْ يَزَلْ يَنْفُثُ تَهَدُّدًا وَقَتْلًا عَلَى تَلَامِيذِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَتَقَدَّمَ إِلَى رَئِيسِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ | ١ 1 |
But Saul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest
وَطَلَبَ مِنْهُ رَسَائِلَ إِلَى دِمَشْقَ، إِلَى ٱلْجَمَاعَاتِ، حَتَّى إِذَا وَجَدَ أُنَاسًا مِنَ ٱلطَّرِيقِ، رِجَالًا أَوْ نِسَاءً، يَسُوقُهُمْ مُوثَقِينَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ٢ 2 |
and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
وَفِي ذَهَابِهِ حَدَثَ أَنَّهُ ٱقْتَرَبَ إِلَى دِمَشْقَ فَبَغْتَةً أَبْرَقَ حَوْلَهُ نُورٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، | ٣ 3 |
As he travelled, he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him.
فَسَقَطَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَسَمِعَ صَوْتًا قَائِلًا لَهُ: «شَاوُلُ، شَاوُلُ! لِمَاذَا تَضْطَهِدُنِي؟». | ٤ 4 |
He fell on the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?”
فَقَالَ: «مَنْ أَنْتَ يَا سَيِّدُ؟». فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «أَنَا يَسُوعُ ٱلَّذِي أَنْتَ تَضْطَهِدُهُ. صَعْبٌ عَلَيْكَ أَن تَرْفُسَ مَنَاخِسَ». | ٥ 5 |
He said, “Who are you, Lord?” The Lord said, “I am Yeshua, whom you are persecuting.
فَقَالَ وَهُوَ مُرْتَعِدٌ وَمُتَحَيِّرٌ: «يَارَبُّ، مَاذَا تُرِيدُ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ؟». فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ: «قُمْ وَٱدْخُلِ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ فَيُقَالَ لَكَ مَاذَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ تَفْعَلَ». | ٦ 6 |
But rise up and enter into the city, then you will be told what you must do.”
وَأَمَّا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْمُسَافِرُونَ مَعَهُ فَوَقَفُوا صَامِتِينَ، يَسْمَعُونَ ٱلصَّوْتَ وَلَا يَنْظُرُونَ أَحَدًا. | ٧ 7 |
The men who travelled with him stood speechless, hearing the sound, but seeing no one.
فَنَهَضَ شَاوُلُ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَكَانَ وَهُوَ مَفْتُوحُ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ لَا يُبْصِرُ أَحَدًا. فَٱقْتَادُوهُ بِيَدِهِ وَأَدْخَلُوهُ إِلَى دِمَشْقَ. | ٨ 8 |
Saul arose from the ground, and when his eyes were opened, he saw no one. They led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus.
وَكَانَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ لَا يُبْصِرُ، فَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ وَلَمْ يَشْرَبْ. | ٩ 9 |
He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.
وَكَانَ فِي دِمَشْقَ تِلْمِيذٌ ٱسْمُهُ حَنَانِيَّا، فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي رُؤْيَا: «يَا حَنَانِيَّا!». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا يَارَبُّ». | ١٠ 10 |
Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Hananiah. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Hananiah!” He said, “Behold, it’s me, Lord.”
فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ: «قُمْ وَٱذْهَبْ إِلَى ٱلزُّقَاقِ ٱلَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمُ، وَٱطْلُبْ فِي بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا رَجُلًا طَرْسُوسِيًّا ٱسْمُهُ شَاوُلُ. لِأَنَّهُ هُوَذَا يُصَلِّي، | ١١ 11 |
The Lord said to him, “Arise and go to the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judah for one named Saul, a man of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying,
وَقَدْ رَأَى فِي رُؤْيَا رَجُلًا ٱسْمُهُ حَنَانِيَّا دَاخِلًا وَوَاضِعًا يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ لِكَيْ يُبْصِرَ». | ١٢ 12 |
and in a vision he has seen a man named Hananiah coming in and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight.”
فَأَجَابَ حَنَانِيَّا: «يَارَبُّ، قَدْ سَمِعْتُ مِنْ كَثِيرِينَ عَنْ هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلِ، كَمْ مِنَ ٱلشُّرُورِ فَعَلَ بِقِدِّيسِيكَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ١٣ 13 |
But Hananiah answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your holy ones at Jerusalem.
وَهَهُنَا لَهُ سُلْطَانٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ أَنْ يُوثِقَ جَمِيعَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ بِٱسْمِكَ». | ١٤ 14 |
Here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.”
فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ: «ٱذْهَبْ! لِأَنَّ هَذَا لِي إِنَاءٌ مُخْتَارٌ لِيَحْمِلَ ٱسْمِي أَمَامَ أُمَمٍ وَمُلُوكٍ وَبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٥ 15 |
But the Lord said to him, “Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the children of Israel.
لِأَنِّي سَأُرِيهِ كَمْ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَتَأَلَّمَ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱسْمِي». | ١٦ 16 |
For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name’s sake.”
فَمَضَى حَنَانِيَّا وَدَخَلَ ٱلْبَيْتَ وَوَضَعَ عَلَيْهِ يَدَيْهِ وَقَالَ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَخُ شَاوُلُ، قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ يَسُوعُ ٱلَّذِي ظَهَرَ لَكَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي جِئْتَ فِيهِ، لِكَيْ تُبْصِرَ وَتَمْتَلِئَ مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ». | ١٧ 17 |
Hananiah departed and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
فَلِلْوَقْتِ وَقَعَ مِنْ عَيْنَيْهِ شَيْءٌ كَأَنَّهُ قُشُورٌ، فَأَبْصَرَ فِي ٱلْحَالِ، وَقَامَ وَٱعْتَمَدَ. | ١٨ 18 |
Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was immersed.
وَتَنَاوَلَ طَعَامًا فَتَقَوَّى. وَكَانَ شَاوُلُ مَعَ ٱلتَّلَامِيذِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي دِمَشْقَ أَيَّامًا. | ١٩ 19 |
He took food and was strengthened. Saul stayed several days with the disciples who were at Damascus.
وَلِلْوَقْتِ جَعَلَ يَكْرِزُ فِي ٱلْمَجَامِعِ بِٱلْمَسِيحِ: «أَنْ هَذَا هُوَ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ». | ٢٠ 20 |
Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed the Messiah, that he is the Son of God.
فَبُهِتَ جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَسْمَعُونَ وَقَالُوا: «أَلَيْسَ هَذَا هُوَ ٱلَّذِي أَهْلَكَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ بِهَذَا ٱلِٱسْمِ؟ وَقَدْ جَاءَ إِلَى هُنَا لِهَذا لِيَسُوقَهُمْ مُوثَقِينَ إِلَى رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ!». | ٢١ 21 |
All who heard him were amazed, and said, “Isn’t this he who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief priests!”
وَأَمَّا شَاوُلُ فَكَانَ يَزْدَادُ قُوَّةً، وَيُحَيِّرُ ٱلْيَهُودَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي دِمَشْقَ مُحَقِّقًا: «أَنَّ هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ». | ٢٢ 22 |
But Saul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Messiah.
وَلَمَّا تَمَّتْ أَيَّامٌ كَثِيرَةٌ تَشَاوَرَ ٱلْيَهُودُ لِيَقْتُلُوهُ، | ٢٣ 23 |
When many days were fulfilled, the Jews conspired together to kill him,
فَعَلِمَ شَاوُلُ بِمَكِيدَتِهِمْ. وَكَانُوا يُرَاقِبُونَ ٱلْأَبْوَابَ أَيْضًا نَهَارًا وَلَيْلًا لِيَقْتُلُوهُ. | ٢٤ 24 |
but their plot became known to Saul. They watched the gates both day and night that they might kill him,
فَأَخَذَهُ ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ لَيْلًا وَأَنْزَلُوهُ مِنَ ٱلسُّورِ مُدَلِّينَ إِيَّاهُ فِي سَلٍّ. | ٢٥ 25 |
but his disciples took him by night and let him down through the wall, lowering him in a basket.
وَلَمَّا جَاءَ شَاوُلُ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ حَاوَلَ أَنْ يَلْتَصِقَ بِٱلتَّلَامِيذِ، وَكَانَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ يَخَافُونَهُ غَيْرَ مُصَدِّقِينَ أَنَّهُ تِلْمِيذٌ. | ٢٦ 26 |
When Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join himself to the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
فَأَخَذَهُ بَرْنَابَا وَأَحْضَرَهُ إِلَى ٱلرُّسُلِ، وَحَدَّثَهُمْ كَيْفَ أَبْصَرَ ٱلرَّبَّ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَأَنَّهُ كَلَّمَهُ، وَكَيْفَ جَاهَرَ فِي دِمَشْقَ بِٱسْمِ يَسُوعَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
But Barnabas took him and brought him to the emissaries, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Yeshua.
فَكَانَ مَعَهُمْ يَدْخُلُ وَيَخْرُجُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ وَيُجَاهِرُ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
He was with them entering into Jerusalem,
وَكَانَ يُخَاطِبُ وَيُبَاحِثُ ٱلْيُونَانِيِّينَ، فَحَاوَلُوا أَنْ يَقْتُلُوهُ. | ٢٩ 29 |
proclaiming boldly in the name of the Lord Yeshua. He spoke and disputed against the Hellenists, but they were seeking to kill him.
فَلَمَّا عَلِمَ ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَحْدَرُوهُ إِلَى قَيْصَرِيَّةَ وَأَرْسَلُوهُ إِلَى طَرْسُوسَ. | ٣٠ 30 |
When the brothers knew it, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus.
وَأَمَّا ٱلْكَنَائِسُ فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَٱلْجَلِيلِ وَٱلسَّامِرَةِ فَكَانَ لَهَا سَلَامٌ، وَكَانَتْ تُبْنَى وَتَسِيرُ فِي خَوْفِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَبِتَعْزِيَةِ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ كَانَتْ تَتَكَاثَرُ. | ٣١ 31 |
So the assemblies throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
وَحَدَثَ أَنَّ بُطْرُسَ وَهُوَ يَجْتَازُ بِٱلْجَمِيعِ، نَزَلَ أَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي لُدَّةَ، | ٣٢ 32 |
As Peter went throughout all those parts, he came down also to the holy ones who lived at Lydda.
فَوَجَدَ هُنَاكَ إِنْسَانًا ٱسْمُهُ إِينِيَاسُ مُضْطَجِعًا عَلَى سَرِيرٍ مُنْذُ ثَمَانِي سِنِينَ، وَكَانَ مَفْلُوجًا. | ٣٣ 33 |
There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden for eight years because he was paralysed.
فَقَالَ لَهُ بُطْرُسُ: «يَا إِينِيَاسُ، يَشْفِيكَ يَسُوعُ ٱلْمَسِيحُ. قُمْ وَٱفْرُشْ لِنَفْسِكَ!». فَقَامَ لِلْوَقْتِ. | ٣٤ 34 |
Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Yeshua the Messiah heals you. Get up and make your bed!” Immediately he arose.
وَرَآهُ جَمِيعُ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي لُدَّةَ وَسَارُونَ، ٱلَّذِينَ رَجَعُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٣٥ 35 |
All who lived at Lydda and in Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.
وَكَانَ فِي يَافَا تِلْمِيذَةٌ ٱسْمُهَا طَابِيثَا، ٱلَّذِي تَرْجَمَتُهُ غَزَالَةُ. هَذِهِ كَانَتْ مُمْتَلِئَةً أَعْمَالًا صَالِحَةً وَإِحْسَانَاتٍ كَانَتْ تَعْمَلُهَا. | ٣٦ 36 |
Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tavita, which when translated means Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and acts of mercy which she did.
وَحَدَثَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أَنَّهَا مَرِضَتْ وَمَاتَتْ، فَغَسَّلُوهَا وَوَضَعُوهَا فِي عِلِّيَّةٍ. | ٣٧ 37 |
In those days, she became sick and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.
وَإِذْ كَانَتْ لُدَّةُ قَرِيبَةً مِنْ يَافَا، وَسَمِعَ ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ أَنَّ بُطْرُسَ فِيهَا، أَرْسَلُوا رَجُلَيْنِ يَطْلُبَانِ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ لَا يَتَوَانَى عَنْ أَنْ يَجْتَازَ إِلَيْهِمْ. | ٣٨ 38 |
As Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to them.
فَقَامَ بُطْرُسُ وَجَاءَ مَعَهُمَا. فَلَمَّا وَصَلَ صَعِدُوا بِهِ إِلَى ٱلْعِلِّيَّةِ، فَوَقَفَتْ لَدَيْهِ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأَرَامِلِ يَبْكِينَ وَيُرِينَ أَقْمِصَةً وَثِيَابًا مِمَّا كَانَتْ تَعْمَلُ غَزَالَةُ وَهِيَ مَعَهُنَّ. | ٣٩ 39 |
Peter got up and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper room. All the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the tunics and other garments which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
فَأَخْرَجَ بُطْرُسُ ٱلْجَمِيعَ خَارِجًا، وَجَثَا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَصَلَّى، ثُمَّ ٱلْتَفَتَ إِلَى ٱلْجَسَدِ وَقَالَ: «يَا طَابِيثَا، قُومِي!». فَفَتَحَتْ عَيْنَيْهَا. وَلَمَّا أَبْصَرَتْ بُطْرُسَ جَلَسَتْ، | ٤٠ 40 |
Peter sent them all out, and knelt down and prayed. Turning to the body, he said, “Tavita, get up!” She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
فَنَاوَلَهَا يَدَهُ وَأَقَامَهَا. ثُمَّ نَادَى ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ وَٱلْأَرَامِلَ وَأَحْضَرَهَا حَيَّةً. | ٤١ 41 |
He gave her his hand and raised her up. Calling the holy ones and widows, he presented her alive.
فَصَارَ ذَلِكَ مَعْلُومًا فِي يَافَا كُلِّهَا، فَآمَنَ كَثِيرُونَ بِٱلرَّبِّ. | ٤٢ 42 |
This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
وَمَكَثَ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً فِي يَافَا، عِنْدَ سِمْعَانَ رَجُلٍ دَبَّاغٍ. | ٤٣ 43 |
He stayed many days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.
