< 2 كورنثوس 5 >
فَإِنَّنَا نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ مَتَى تَهَدَّمَتْ خَيْمَتُنَا الأَرْضِيَّةُ الَّتِي نَسْكُنُهَا الآنَ، يَكُونُ لَنَا بِنَاءٌ مِنَ اللهِ: بَيْتٌ لَمْ تَصْنَعْهُ أَيْدِي الْبَشَرِ، أَبَدِيٌّ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ. (aiōnios ) | ١ 1 |
For I know, if this earthly tent of mine were struck, I have a mansion built by God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. (aiōnios )
فَالْوَاقِعُ أَنَّنَا، وَنَحْنُ فِي هَذَا الْمَسْكِنِ، نَئِنُّ مُتَشَوِّقِينَ أَنْ نَلْبَسَ فَوْقَهُ بَيْتَنَا السَّمَاوِيَّ، | ٢ 2 |
For in this tent I am groaning, earnestly longing to be under the cover of my heavenly habitation; if so be that being so covered,
حَتَّى إِذَا لَبِسْنَاهُ لَا نُوجَدُ عُرَاةً. | ٣ 3 |
I shall not be found naked.
ذَلِكَ أَنَّنَا، نَحْنُ السَّاكِنِينَ فِي هذِهِ الْخَيْمَةِ، نَئِنُّ كَمَنْ يَحْمِلُ ثِقْلاً، فَنَحْنُ لَا نُرِيدُ أَنْ نَخْلَعَهَا، بَلْ أَنْ نَلْبَسَ فَوْقَهَا مَسْكَنَنَا السَّمَاوِيَّ، فَتَبْتَلِعَ الْحَيَاةُ مَا هُوَ مَائِتٌ فِينَا. | ٤ 4 |
For in this tent of mine I am groaning in deep trouble; not that I wish to be unclothed, but to be clothed upon, that what is mortal may be swallowed up in life.
وَالَّذِي أَعَدَّنَا لِهَذَا الأَمْرِ بِعَيْنِهِ هُوَ اللهُ، وَقَدْ أَعْطَانَا الرُّوحَ عُرْبُوناً أَيْضاً. | ٥ 5 |
And He who has wrought me out for this very end is God, who has given me his Spirit as pledge.
لِذَلِكَ نَحْنُ وَاثِقُونَ دَائِماً، وَعَالِمُونَ أَنَّنَا مَادُمْنَا مُقِيمِينَ فِي الْجَسَدِ، نَبْقَى مُغْتَرِبِينَ عَنِ الرَّبِّ، | ٦ 6 |
Therefore I am always of good courage, because I well know that while I am at home in the body, I am in banishment from the Lord,
لأَنَّنَا نَسْلُكُ بِالإِيمَانِ لَا بِالْعِيَانِ. | ٧ 7 |
for I am walking by faith, not by sight.
فَنَحْنُ وَاثِقُونَ إِذَنْ، وَرَاضُونَ بِالأَحْرَى أَنْ نَكُونَ مُغْتَرِبِينَ عَنِ الْجَسَدِ وَمُقِيمِينَ عِنْدَ الرَّبِّ. | ٨ 8 |
So I have good courage, and am well pleased rather, to be in banishment from the body and to be at home with the Lord.
وَلِذَلِكَ أَيْضاً نَحْرِصُ أَنْ نُرْضِيَهُ، سَوَاءٌ أَكُنَّا مُقِيمِينَ أَمْ مُغْتَرِبِينَ. | ٩ 9 |
And for this reason I also make it home with the Lord.
إِذْ لابُدَّ أَنْ نَقِفَ جَمِيعاً مَكْشُوفِينَ أَمَامَ كُرْسِيِّ الْمَسِيحِ، لِيَنَالَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَّا اسْتِحْقَاقَ مَا عَمِلَهُ حِينَ كَانَ فِي الْجَسَدِ، صَالِحاً كَانَ أَمْ رَدِيئاً! | ١٠ 10 |
For we must all be made manifest, in our true characters, before the Judgment-seat of Christ; so that each one may receive according to that which he has done in his body, whether good or evil.
فَبِدَافِعِ وَعْيِنَا لِرَهْبَةِ الرَّبِّ، نُحَاوِلُ إِقْنَاعَ النَّاسِ. وَلَكِنَّنَا ظَاهِرُونَ أَمَامَ اللهِ، وَأَرْجُو أَنْ نَكُونَ ظَاهِرِينَ أَيْضاً فِي ضَمَائِرِكُمْ. | ١١ 11 |
So, because I know the fear of God, I "persuade men." What I am is manifest to God, and I hope manifest also to your conscience.
لَيْسَ أَنَّنَا عُدْنَا إِلَى مَدْحِ أَنْفُسِنَا أَمَامَكُمْ؛ بَلْ إِنَّمَا نُقَدِّمُ لَكُمْ مُبَرِّراً لِلافْتِخَارِ بِنَا، لِيَكُونَ لَكُمْ حُجَّةٌ تَرُدُّونَ بِها عَلَى الَّذِينَ يَفْتَخِرُونَ بِالْمَظَاهِرِ لَا بِمَا فِي الْقَلْبِ. | ١٢ 12 |
I am not "commending myself to you again," but I am giving you an occasion of boasting on my behalf, so that you may have an answer ready for those who boast in externals, and not in the heart.
أَتُرَانَا فَقَدْنَا صَوَابَنَا؟ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لأَجْلِ اللهِ. أَمْ تُرَانَا مُتَعَقِّلِينَ؟ إِنَّ ذلِكَ لأَجْلِكُمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
For if I was "beside myself," it was to God; of if I am now "of sound mind," it is for you.
فَإِنَّ مَحَبَّةَ الْمَسِيحِ تُسَيْطِرُ عَلَيْنَا، وَقَدْ حَكَمْنَا بِهَذَا: مَادَامَ وَاحِدٌ قَدْ مَاتَ عِوَضاً عَنِ الْجَمِيعِ، فَمَعْنَى ذَلِكَ أَنَّ الْجَمِيعَ مَاتُوا؛ | ١٤ 14 |
For the love of Christ overmasters me; because I thus judge that if One has died for all, then all have died;
وَهُوَ قَدْ مَاتَ عِوَضاً عَنِ الْجَمِيعِ حَتَّى لَا يَعِيشَ الأَحْيَاءُ فِيمَا بَعْدُ لأَنْفُسِهِمْ بَلْ لِلَّذِي مَاتَ عِوَضاً عَنْهُمْ ثُمَّ قَامَ. | ١٥ 15 |
and that he died for all in order that the living may live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again for them.
إِذَنْ، نَحْنُ مُنْذُ الآنَ لَا نَعْرِفُ أَحَداً مَعْرِفَةً بَشَرِيَّةً. وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كُنَّا قَدْ عَرَفْنَا الْمَسِيحَ مَعْرِفَةً بَشَرِيَّةً، فَنَحْنُ الآنَ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ هكَذَا بَعْدُ. | ١٦ 16 |
Therefore henceforth I know no one simply as a man - even if I have known Christ as a man, yet now I do so no longer.
فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدٌ فِي الْمَسِيحِ، فَهُوَ خَلِيقَةٌ جَدِيدَةٌ: إِنَّ الأَشْيَاءَ الْقَدِيمَةَ قَدْ زَالَتْ، وَهَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ قَدْ صَارَ جَدِيداً. | ١٧ 17 |
So there is a new creation when any man is in Christ. The old life has passed away, behold, the new is come.
وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ هُوَ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللهِ الَّذِي صَالَحَنَا مَعَ نَفْسِهِ بِالْمَسِيحِ، ثُمَّ سَلَّمَنَا خِدْمَةَ هَذِهِ الْمُصَالَحَةِ. | ١٨ 18 |
And all this is from God, who through Christ reconciled me to himself, and gave me the ministry of reconciliation;
ذَلِكَ أَنَّ اللهَ كَانَ فِي الْمَسِيحِ مُصَالِحاً الْعَالَمَ مَعَ نَفْسِهِ، غَيْرَ حَاسِبٍ عَلَيْهِمْ خَطَايَاهُمْ، وَقَدْ وَضَعَ بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا رِسَالَةَ هَذِهِ الْمُصَالَحَةِ. | ١٩ 19 |
how that God was in Christ reconciling a world to himself, not reckoning to men their trespasses; and that to me he has entrusted the message of that reconciliation.
فَنَحْنُ إِذَنْ سُفَرَاءُ الْمَسِيحِ، وَكَأَنَّ اللهَ يَعِظُ بِنَا نُنَادِي عَنِ الْمَسِيحِ: «تَصَالَحُوا مَعَ اللهِ!» | ٢٠ 20 |
On Christ’s behalf, then, I come as ambassador. It is as though God was entreating you, through me, on Christ’s behalf I beg you to be reconciled to God.
فَإِنَّ الَّذِي لَمْ يَعْرِفْ خَطِيئَةً، جَعَلَهُ اللهُ خَطِيئَةً لأَجْلِنَا، لِنَصِيرَ نَحْنُ بِرَّ اللهِ فِيهِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Him who knew no sin, in our behalf he has made to be sin; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
