يَعقُوب 3
| لَا تَكُونُوا مُعَلِّمِينَ كَثِيرِينَ يَا إِخْوَتِي، عَالِمِينَ أَنَّنَا نَأْخُذُ دَيْنُونَةً أَعْظَمَ! | ١ 1 |
Be not many [of you] teachers, my brethren, knowing that we shall receive heavier judgment.
| لِأَنَّنَا فِي أَشْيَاءَ كَثِيرَةٍ نَعْثُرُ جَمِيعُنَا. إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ لَا يَعْثُرُ فِي ٱلْكَلَامِ فَذَاكَ رَجُلٌ كَامِلٌ، قَادِرٌ أَنْ يُلْجِمَ كُلَّ ٱلْجَسَدِ أَيْضًا. | ٢ 2 |
For in many things we all stumble. If any stumbleth not in word, the same is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.
| هُوَذَا ٱلْخَيْلُ، نَضَعُ ٱللُّجُمَ فِي أَفْوَاهِهَا لِكَيْ تُطَاوِعَنَا، فَنُدِيرَ جِسْمَهَا كُلَّهُ. | ٣ 3 |
Now if we put the horses’ bridles into their mouths that they may obey us, we turn about their whole body also.
| هُوَذَا ٱلسُّفُنُ أَيْضًا، وَهِيَ عَظِيمَةٌ بِهَذَا ٱلْمِقْدَارِ، وَتَسُوقُهَا رِيَاحٌ عَاصِفَةٌ، تُدِيرُهَا دَفَّةٌ صَغِيرَةٌ جِدًّا إِلَى حَيْثُمَا شَاءَ قَصْدُ ٱلْمُدِيرِ. | ٤ 4 |
Behold, the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by rough winds, are yet turned about by a very small rudder, whither the impulse of the steersman willeth.
| هَكَذَا ٱللِّسَانُ أَيْضًا، هُوَ عُضْوٌ صَغِيرٌ وَيَفْتَخِرُ مُتَعَظِّمًا. هُوَذَا نَارٌ قَلِيلَةٌ، أَيَّ وُقُودٍ تُحْرِقُ! | ٥ 5 |
So the tongue also is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how much wood is kindled by how small a fire!
| فَٱللِّسَانُ نَارٌ! عَالَمُ ٱلْإِثْمِ. هَكَذَا جُعِلَ فِي أَعْضَائِنَا ٱللِّسَانُ، ٱلَّذِي يُدَنِّسُ ٱلْجِسْمَ كُلَّهُ، وَيُضْرِمُ دَائِرَةَ ٱلْكَوْنِ، وَيُضْرَمُ مِنْ جَهَنَّمَ. (Geenna g1067) | ٦ 6 |
And the tongue is a fire: the world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the wheel of nature, and is set on fire by hell. (Geenna g1067)
| لِأَنَّ كُلَّ طَبْعٍ لِلْوُحُوشِ وَٱلطُّيُورِ وَٱلزَّحَّافَاتِ وَٱلْبَحْرِيَّاتِ يُذَلَّلُ، وَقَدْ تَذَلَّلَ لِلطَّبْعِ ٱلْبَشَرِيِّ. | ٧ 7 |
For every kind of beasts and birds, of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed by mankind:
| وَأَمَّا ٱللِّسَانُ، فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ أَنْ يُذَلِّلَهُ. هُوَ شَرٌّ لَا يُضْبَطُ، مَمْلُوٌّ سُمًّا مُمِيتًا. | ٨ 8 |
but the tongue can no man tame; [it is] a restless evil, [it is] full of deadly poison.
| بِهِ نُبَارِكُ ٱللهَ ٱلْآبَ، وَبِهِ نَلْعَنُ ٱلنَّاسَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَدْ تَكَوَّنُوا عَلَى شِبْهِ ٱللهِ. | ٩ 9 |
Therewith bless we the Lord and Father; and therewith curse we men, who are made after the likeness of God:
| مِنَ ٱلْفَمِ ٱلْوَاحِدِ تَخْرُجُ بَرَكَةٌ وَلَعْنَةٌ! لَا يَصْلُحُ يَا إِخْوَتِي أَنْ تَكُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورُ هَكَذَا! | ١٠ 10 |
out of the same mouth cometh forth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
| أَلَعَلَّ يَنْبُوعًا يُنْبِعُ مِنْ نَفْسِ عَيْنٍ وَاحِدَةٍ ٱلْعَذْبَ وَٱلْمُرَّ؟ | ١١ 11 |
Doth the fountain send forth from the same opening sweet [water] and bitter?
| هَلْ تَقْدِرُ يَا إِخْوَتِي تِينَةٌ أَنْ تَصْنَعَ زَيْتُونًا، أَوْ كَرْمَةٌ تِينًا؟ وَلَا كَذَلِكَ يَنْبُوعٌ يَصْنَعُ مَاءً مَالِحًا وَعَذْبًا! | ١٢ 12 |
can a fig tree, my brethren, yield olives, or a vine figs? neither [can] salt water yield sweet.
| مَنْ هُوَ حَكِيمٌ وَعَالِمٌ بَيْنَكُمْ، فَلْيُرِ أَعْمَالَهُ بِٱلتَّصَرُّفِ ٱلْحَسَنِ فِي وَدَاعَةِ ٱلْحِكْمَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Who is wise and understanding among you? let him show by his good life his works in meekness of wisdom.
| وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ لَكُمْ غَيْرَةٌ مُرَّةٌ وَتَحَزُّبٌ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ، فَلَا تَفْتَخِرُوا وَتَكْذِبُوا عَلَى ٱلْحَقِّ. | ١٤ 14 |
But if ye have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, glory not and lie not against the truth.
| لَيْسَتْ هَذِهِ ٱلْحِكْمَةُ نَازِلَةً مِنْ فَوْقُ، بَلْ هِيَ أَرْضِيَّةٌ نَفْسَانِيَّةٌ شَيْطَانِيَّةٌ. | ١٥ 15 |
This wisdom is not [a wisdom] that cometh down from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
| لِأَنَّهُ حَيْثُ ٱلْغَيْرَةُ وَٱلتَّحَزُّبُ، هُنَاكَ ٱلتَّشْوِيشُ وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍ رَدِيءٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
For where jealousy and faction are, there is confusion and every vile deed.
| وَأَمَّا ٱلْحِكْمَةُ ٱلَّتِي مِنْ فَوْقُ فَهِيَ أَوَّلًا طَاهِرَةٌ، ثُمَّ مُسَالِمَةٌ، مُتَرَفِّقَةٌ، مُذْعِنَةٌ، مَمْلُوَّةٌ رَحْمَةً وَأَثْمَارًا صَالِحَةً، عَدِيمَةُ ٱلرَّيْبِ وَٱلرِّيَاءِ. | ١٧ 17 |
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without variance, without hypocrisy.
| وَثَمَرُ ٱلْبِرِّ يُزْرَعُ فِي ٱلسَّلَامِ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَفْعَلُونَ ٱلسَّلَامَ. | ١٨ 18 |
And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace for them that make peace.
