يوحنَّا 1
| فِي الْبَدْءِ كَانَ الْكَلِمَةُ، وَالْكَلِمَةُ كَانَ عِنْدَ اللهِ. وَكَانَ الْكَلِمَةُ اللهُ. | ١ 1 |
In the beginning the Word already was. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.
| هَذَا كَانَ فِي الْبَدْءِ عِنْدَ اللهِ. | ٢ 2 |
In the beginning he was with God.
| بِهِ تَكَوَّنَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ، وَبِغَيْرِهِ لَمْ يَتَكَوَّنْ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ مِمَّا تَكَوَّنَ. | ٣ 3 |
Everything came into being through him; nothing came into being without him.
| فِيهِ كَانَتِ الْحَيَاةُ. وَالْحَيَاةُ كَانَتِ نُورَ النَّاسِ. | ٤ 4 |
In him was life, the life that was the light of everyone.
| وَالنُّورُ يُضِيءُ فِي الظَّلامِ، وَالظَّلامُ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ النُّورَ. | ٥ 5 |
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not extinguished it.
| ظَهَرَ إِنْسَانٌ أَرْسَلَهُ اللهُ، اسْمُهُ يُوحَنَّا، | ٦ 6 |
God sent a man named John.
| جَاءَ يَشْهَدُ لِلنُّورِ، لِكَيْ يُؤْمِنَ الْجَمِيعُ بِوَاسِطَتِهِ. | ٧ 7 |
He came as a witness to explain about the light so that everyone might believe through him.
| لَمْ يَكُنْ هُوَ النُّورَ، بَلْ كَانَ شَاهِداً لِلنُّورِ، | ٨ 8 |
He himself was not the light, but he came to witness to the light.
| فَالنُّورُ الْحَقُّ الَّذِي يُنِيرُ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ كَانَ آتِياً إِلَى الْعَالَمِ. | ٩ 9 |
The true light was coming into the world to give light to everyone.
| كَانَ فِي الْعَالَمِ، وَبِهِ تَكَوَّنَ الْعَالَمُ، وَلَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ الْعَالَمُ. | ١٠ 10 |
He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world didn't know who he was.
| وَقَدْ جَاءَ إِلَى خَاصَّتِهِ، وَلَكِنَّ هَؤُلاءِ لَمْ يَقْبَلُوهُ. | ١١ 11 |
He came to his own people, but they didn't accept him.
| أَمَّا الَّذِينَ قَبِلُوهُ، أَيِ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاسْمِهِ، فَقَدْ مَنَحَهُمُ الْحَقَّ فِي أَنْ يَصِيرُوا أَوْلادَ اللهِ، | ١٢ 12 |
But to all those who accepted him and trusted in him, he gave the right to become God's children.
| وَهُمُ الَّذِينَ وُلِدُوا لَيْسَ مِنْ دَمٍ، وَلا مِنْ رَغْبَةِ جَسَدٍ، وَلا مِنْ رَغْبَةِ بَشَرٍ، بَلْ مِنَ اللهِ. | ١٣ 13 |
These are the children born not in the usual way, not as the result of human desire or a father's decision, but born of God.
| وَالْكَلِمَةُ صَارَ بَشَراً، وَخَيَّمَ بَيْنَنَا، وَنَحْنُ رَأَيْنَا مَجْدَهُ، مَجْدَ ابْنٍ وَحِيدٍ عِنْدَ الآبِ، وَهُوَ مُمْتَلِىءٌ بِالنِّعْمَةِ وَالْحَقِّ. | ١٤ 14 |
The Word became human and lived among us, and we saw his glory, the glory of the Father's one and only Son, full of grace and truth.
| شَهِدَ لَهُ يُوحَنَّا فَهَتَفَ قَائِلاً: «هَذَا هُوَ الَّذِي قُلْتُ عَنْهُ: إِنَّ الآتِيَ بَعْدِي مُتَقَدِّمٌ عَلَيَّ، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ أُوْجَدَ». | ١٥ 15 |
John gave his testimony about him, shouting out to the people, “This is the one I was telling you about when I said, ‘The one who is coming after me is more important than me, for before I ever existed he already was.’”
| فَمِنِ امْتِلائِهِ أَخَذْنَا جَمِيعُنَا وَنِلْنَا نِعْمَةً عَلَى نِعْمَةٍ، | ١٦ 16 |
We have all been recipients of his generous nature, one gracious gift after another.
| لأَنَّ الشَّرِيعَةَ أُعْطِيَتْ عَلَى يَدِ مُوسَى، أَمَّا النِّعْمَةُ وَالْحَقُّ فَقَدْ تَوَاجَدَا بِيَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ. | ١٧ 17 |
The law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
| مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ رَأَى اللهَ قَطُّ. وَلَكِنَّ الابْنَ الْوَحِيدَ، الَّذِي فِي حِضْنِ الآبِ، هُوَ الَّذِي خَبَّرَ عَنْهُ. | ١٨ 18 |
While no one has ever seen God, God the one and only, who is close to the Father, has shown us what God is like.
| وَهذِهِ شَهَادَةُ يُوحَنَّا حِينَ أَرْسَلَ الْيَهُودُ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ بَعْضَ الْكَهَنَةِ وَاللّاوِيِّينَ يَسْأَلُونَهُ: «مَنْ أَنْتْ؟» | ١٩ 19 |
This is what John publicly stated when the Jewish leaders sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
| فَاعْتَرَفَ وَلَمْ يُنْكِرْ، بَلْ أَكَّدَ قَائِلاً: «لَسْتُ أَنَا الْمَسِيحَ». | ٢٠ 20 |
John declared plainly and clearly without hesitation, “I am not the Messiah.”
| فَسَأَلُوهُ: «مَاذَا إِذَنْ؟ هَلْ أَنْتَ إِيلِيَّا؟» قَالَ: «لَسْتُ إِيَّاهُ!». «أَوَ أَنْتَ النَّبِيُّ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «لا!» | ٢١ 21 |
“So then, who are you?” they asked. “Elijah?” “No, I'm not,” he answered. “Are you the Prophet?” “No,” he replied.
| فَقَالُوا: «فَمَنْ أَنْتَ، لِنَحْمِلَ الْجَوَابَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ أَرْسَلُونَا؟ مَاذَا تَقُولُ عَنْ نَفْسِكَ؟» | ٢٢ 22 |
“Well, who are you, then?” they asked. “We have to give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
| فَقَالَ «أَنَا صَوْتُ مُنَادٍ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ: اجْعَلُوا الطَّرِيقَ مُسْتَقِيمَةً أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، كَمَا قَالَ النَّبِيُّ إِشَعْيَاءُ». | ٢٣ 23 |
“I am a voice calling in the desert, ‘Make the Lord's way straight!’” he said, using the words of the prophet Isaiah.
| وَكَانَ هؤُلاءِ مُرْسَلِينَ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ، | ٢٤ 24 |
The priests and Levites sent by the Pharisees
| فَعَادُوا يَسْأَلُونَهُ: «إِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ أَنْتَ الْمَسِيحَ، وَلا إِيلِيَّا، وَلا النَّبِيَّ، فَلِمَاذَا تُعَمِّدُ إِذَنْ؟» | ٢٥ 25 |
asked him, “Why then are you baptizing, if you're not the Messiah, or Elijah, or the Prophet?”
| أَجَابَ: «أَنَا أُعَمِّدُ بِالْمَاءِ! وَلكِنَّ بَيْنَكُمْ مَنْ لَا تَعْرِفُونَهُ، | ٢٦ 26 |
John replied, “I baptize with water, but standing among you is someone you don't know.
| وَهُوَ الآتِي بَعْدِي، وَأَنَا لَا أَسْتَحِقُّ أَنْ أَحُلَّ رِبَاطَ حِذَائِهِ». | ٢٧ 27 |
He is coming after me, but I am not even worthy to untie his sandals.”
| هَذَا جَرَى فِي بَيْتَ عَنْيَا، عَبْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ، حَيْثُ كَانَ يُوحَنَّا يُعَمِّدُ. | ٢٨ 28 |
This all happened in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي رَأَى يُوحَنَّا يَسُوعَ آتِياً نَحْوَهُ، فَهَتَفَ قَائِلاً: «هَذَا هُوَ حَمَلُ اللهِ الَّذِي يُزِيلُ خَطِيئَةَ الْعَالَمِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
The next day John saw Jesus approaching him, and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
| هَذَا هُوَ الَّذِي قُلْتُ عَنْهُ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ الآتِيَ بَعْدِي مُتَقَدِّمٌ عَلَيَّ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ أُوْجَدَ. | ٣٠ 30 |
This is the one I was talking about when I said, ‘A man who is coming after me is more important than me, for before I ever existed he already was.’
| وَلَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْرِفُهُ وَلَكِنِّي جِئْتُ أُعَمِّدُ بِالْمَاءِ لِكَيْ يُعْلَنَ لإِسْرَائِيلَ». | ٣١ 31 |
I didn't know myself who he was, but I came baptizing with water so that he could be revealed to Israel.”
| ثُمَّ شَهِدَ يُوحَنَّا فَقَالَ: «رَأَيْتُ الرُّوحَ يَنْزِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ بِهَيْئَةِ حَمَامَةٍ وَيَسْتَقِرُّ عَلَيْهِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
John gave his evidence about him, saying, “I saw the Spirit descend from heaven like a dove and rest upon him.
| وَلَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْرِفُهُ، وَلكِنَّ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي لأُعَمِّدَ بِالْمَاءِ هُوَ قَالَ لِي: الَّذِي تَرَى الرُّوحَ يَنْزِلُ وَيَسْتَقِرُّ عَلَيْهِ هُوَ الَّذِي سَيُعَمِّدُ بِالرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
I wouldn't have known him except he who sent me to baptize with water had told me, ‘The one you see the Spirit descend to and rest upon, he is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
| فَإِذْ شَاهَدْتُ هَذَا، أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ هُوَ ابْنُ اللهِ». | ٣٤ 34 |
I saw it happen and I declare that this is the Son of God.”
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي كَانَ يُوحَنَّا وَاقِفاً هُنَاكَ أَيْضاً وَمَعَهُ اثْنَانِ مِنْ تَلامِيذِهِ، | ٣٥ 35 |
The next day John was standing there with two of his disciples.
| فَنَظَرَ إِلَى يَسُوعَ وَهُوَ سَائِرٌ فَقَالَ: «هَذَا هُوَ حَمَلُ اللهِ». | ٣٦ 36 |
He saw Jesus passing by, and said, “Look! This is the Lamb of God!”
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ التِّلْمِيذَانِ كَلامَهُ تَبِعَا يَسُوعَ. | ٣٧ 37 |
When the two disciples heard what he said they went and followed Jesus.
| وَالْتَفَتَ يَسُوعُ فَرَآهُمَا يَتْبَعَانِهِ، فَسَأَلَهُمَا: «مَاذَا تُرِيدَانِ؟» فَقَالا: «رَابِّي، أَيْ يَا مُعَلِّمُ، أَيْنَ تُقِيمُ؟» | ٣٨ 38 |
Jesus turned round and saw them following him. “What are you looking for?” he asked them. “Rabbi (which means ‘Teacher’), where are you staying?” they asked in reply.
| أَجَابَهُمَا: «تَعَالَيَا وَانْظُرَا». فَرَافَقَاهُ وَرَأَيَا مَحَلَّ إِقَامَتِهِ، وَأَقَامَا مَعَهُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ؛ وَكَانَتِ السَّاعَةُ نَحْوَ الرَّابِعَةِ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ. | ٣٩ 39 |
“Come and see,” he told them. So they went with him and saw where he was staying. It was about four p.m., and they spent the rest of the day with him.
| وَكَانَ أَنْدَرَاوُسُ أَخُو سِمْعَانَ بُطْرُسَ أَحَدَ هَذَيْنِ اللَّذَيْنِ تَبِعَا يَسُوعَ، بَعْدَمَا سَمِعَا كَلامَ يُوحَنَّا، | ٤٠ 40 |
Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of these two disciples who had heard what John said and followed Jesus.
| فَمَا إِنْ وَجَدَ أَخَاهُ سِمْعَانَ، حَتَّى قَالَ لَهُ: «وَجَدْنَا الْمَسِيَّا» أَيِ الْمَسِيحَ. | ٤١ 41 |
He went at once to find his brother Simon and told him, “We've found the Messiah!” (which means “Christ”).
| وَاقْتَادَهُ إِلَى يَسُوعَ. فَنَظَرَ يَسُوعُ مَلِيًّا إِلَى سِمْعَانَ وَقَالَ: «أَنْتَ سِمْعَانُ بْنُ يُونَا، وَلَكِنِّي سَأَدْعُوكَ: صَفَا» أَيْ صَخْراً. | ٤٢ 42 |
He took him to Jesus. Looking directly at Simon, Jesus said, “You are Simon, son of John. But now you will be called Cephas,” (which means “Peter”).
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي نَوَى يَسُوعُ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ إِلَى مِنْطَقَةِ الْجَلِيلِ، فَوَجَدَ فِيلِبُّسَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «اتْبَعْنِي!» | ٤٣ 43 |
The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. Jesus found Philip there, and told him, “Follow me.”
| وَكَانَ فِيلِبُّسُ مِنْ بَيْتَ صَيْدَا، بَلْدَةِ أَنْدَرَاوُسَ وَبُطْرُسَ. | ٤٤ 44 |
Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town that Andrew and Peter came from.
| ثُمَّ وَجَدَ فِيلِبُّسُ نَثَنَائِيلَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «وَجَدْنَا الَّذِي كَتَبَ عَنْهُ مُوسَى فِي الشَّرِيعَةِ، وَالأَنْبِيَاءُ فِي كُتُبِهِمْ وَهُوَ يَسُوعُ ابْنُ يُوسُفَ مِنَ النَّاصِرَةِ». | ٤٥ 45 |
Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We've found the one that Moses wrote about in the law and that the prophets did too—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
| فَقَالَ نَثَنَائِيلُ: «وَهَلْ يَطْلُعُ مِنَ النَّاصِرَةِ شَيْءٌ صَالِحٌ؟» أَجَابَهُ فِيلِبُّسُ: «تَعَالَ وَانْظُرْ!» | ٤٦ 46 |
“From Nazareth? Can anything good come from there?” Nathanael wondered. “Just come and see,” Philip replied.
| وَرَأَى يَسُوعُ نَثَنَائِيلَ قَادِماً نَحْوَهُ فَقَالَ عَنْهُ: «هَذَا إِسْرَائِيلِيٌّ أَصِيلٌ لَا شَكَّ فِيهِ!» | ٤٧ 47 |
As Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said about him, “Look, here's a true Israelite! There's nothing false about him.”
| فَسَأَلَهُ نَثَنَائِيلُ: «وَمِنْ أَيْنَ تَعْرِفُنِي؟» فَأَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «رَأَيْتُكَ تَحْتَ التِّينَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْعُوَكَ فِيلِبُّسُ». | ٤٨ 48 |
“How do you know who I am?” Nathanael asked. “I saw you there under the fig tree, before Philip called you,” Jesus replied.
| فَهَتَفَ نَثَنَائِيلُ قَائِلاً: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، أَنْتَ ابْنُ اللهِ! أَنْتَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ!» | ٤٩ 49 |
“Rabbi, you are the Son of God, the king of Israel!” Nathaniel exclaimed.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «هَلْ آمَنْتَ لأَنِّي قُلْتُ لَكَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُكَ تَحْتَ التِّينَةِ؟ سَوْفَ تَرَى أَعْظَمَ مِنْ هَذَا!» | ٥٠ 50 |
“You believe this just because I told you I saw you under the fig tree?” Jesus replied. “You'll get to see much more than that!”
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ: «الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرَوْنَ السَّمَاءَ مَفْتُوحَةً، وَمَلائِكَةَ اللهِ يَصْعَدُونَ وَيَنْزِلُونَ عَلَى ابْنِ الإِنْسَانِ!» | ٥١ 51 |
Then Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, you will all see heaven open, and the angels of God going up and down on the Son of man.”
