يوحنَّا 6

١ 1 بَعْدَ ذلِكَ عَبَرَ يَسُوعُ بُحَيْرَةَ الْجَلِيلِ، أَيْ بُحَيْرَةَ طَبَرِيَّةَ، إِلَى الضَّفَّةِ الْمُقَابِلَةِ،

After this Jesus went away across the Sea of Galilee (that is the lake of Tiberias).

٢ 2 وَتَبِعَهُ جَمْعٌ كَبِيرٌ بَعْدَمَا رَأَوْا آيَاتِ شِفَائِهِ لِلْمَرْضَى.

A great crowd were following him, because they witnessed the signs which he was continually performing among those who were ill.

٣ 3 وَصَعِدَ يَسُوعُ وَتَلامِيذُهُ إِلَى الْجَبَلِ وَجَلَسُوا.

Then Jesus walked up the hills and sat down there with his disciples. Now the Jewish feast, the Passover, was at hand.

٤ 4 وَكَانَ عِيدُ الْفِصْحِ الْيَهُودِيُّ قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ.

Accordingly when he looked up, and perceived a great crowd was coming unto him,

٥ 5 وَإِذْ تَطَلَّعَ يَسُوعُ وَرَأَى جَمْعاً كَبِيراً قَادِماً نَحْوَهُ، قَالَ لِفِيلِبُّسَ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ نَشْتَرِي خُبْزاً لِنُطْعِمَ هؤُلاءِ كُلَّهُمْ؟»

he said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?"

٦ 6 وَقَدْ قَالَ هَذَا لِيَمْتَحِنَهُ، لأَنَّ يَسُوعَ كَانَ يَعْرِفُ مَا سَيَفْعَلُهُ.

He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he intended to do.

٧ 7 فَأَجَابَهُ فِيلِبُّسُ: «حَتَّى لَوِ اشْتَرَيْنَا خُبْزاً بِمِئَتَيْ دِينَارٍ، لَمَا كَفَى لِيَحْصُلَ الْوَاحِدُ مِنْهُمْ عَلَى قِطْعَةٍ صَغِيرَةٍ!»

"Thirty-five dollars worth of bread," answered Philip, "is not enough for them, so that each can take a morsel."

٨ 8 فَقَالَ لَهُ أَنْدَرَاوُسُ، أَخُو سِمْعَانَ بُطْرُسَ، وَهُوَ أَحَدُ التَّلامِيذِ:

One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon, said to him.

٩ 9 «هُنَا وَلَدٌ مَعَهُ خَمْسَةُ أَرْغِفَةِ شَعِيرٍ وَسَمَكَتَانِ صَغِيرَتَانِ. وَلكِنْ مَا هذِهِ لِمِثْلِ هَذَا الْجَمْعِ الْكَبِيرِ؟»

"There is a lad who has five barley loaves and a couple of fish; but what is that among so many?"

١٠ 10 فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ: «أَجْلِسُوهُمْ!» وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ عُشْبٌ كَثِيرٌ. فَجَلَسَ الرِّجَالُ، وَكَانَ عَدَدُهُمْ نَحْوَ خَمْسَةِ آلافٍ.

"Make the men sit down," said Jesus. The ground was covered with thick grass; so the men sat down, in numbers about five thousand. "of righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you will no longer see me;

١١ 11 فَأَخَذَ يَسُوعُ الأَرْغِفَةَ وَشَكَرَ، ثُمَّ وَزَّعَ مِنْهَا عَلَى الْجَالِسِينَ، بِقَدْرِ مَا أَرَادُوا. وَكَذلِكَ فَعَلَ بِالسَّمَكَتَيْنِ.

Then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks he distributed them among those who were seated; in like manner also of the fish, as much as they wished,

١٢ 12 فَلَمَّا شَبِعُوا، قَالَ لِتَلامِيذِهِ: «اجْمَعُوا كِسَرَ الْخُبْزِ الَّتِي فَضَلَتْ لِكَيْ لَا يَضِيعَ شَيْءٌ!»

and when they were satisfied, he said to his disciples, "Gather up the fragments that are left, so that nothing may be wasted."

١٣ 13 فَجَمَعُوهَا، وَمَلأُوا اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ قُفَّةً مِنْ كِسَرِ الْخُبْزِ الْفَاضِلَةِ عَنِ الآكِلِينَ مِنْ خَمْسَةِ أَرْغِفَةِ الشَّعِيرِ.

So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves - the broken pieces that were left after they had eaten.

١٤ 14 فَلَمَّا رَأَى النَّاسُ الآيَةَ الَّتِي صَنَعَهَا يَسُوعُ قَالُوا: «حَقّاً، هَذَا هُوَ النَّبِيُّ الآتِي إِلَى الْعَالَمِ».

So when the people saw the sign which he had performed, they said, "This is in the truth the Prophet who is to come into the world."

١٥ 15 وَعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ أَنَّهُمْ عَلَى وَشْكِ أَنْ يَخْتَطِفُوهُ لِيُقِيمُوهُ مَلِكاً، فَعَادَ إِلَى الْجَبَلِ وَحْدَهُ.

When Jesus perceived that they intended to seize him in order to make him a king, he retired again to the hill all by himself.

١٦ 16 وَلَمَّا حَلَّ الْمَسَاءُ نَزَلَ تَلامِيذُهُ إِلَى الْبُحَيْرَةِ،

When evening came on, his disciples went down to the sea.

١٧ 17 وَرَكِبُوا قَارِباً مُتَّجِهِينَ إِلَى كَفْرَنَاحُومَ فِي الضَّفَّةِ الْمُقَابِلَةِ مِنَ الْبُحَيْرَةِ. وَخَيَّمَ الظَّلامُ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَسُوعُ قَد لَحِقَ بِهِمْ.

There they got in a boat, and started across the sea for Capernaum. The darkness had already fallen,

١٨ 18 وَهَبَّتْ عَاصِفَةٌ قَوِيَّةٌ، فَاضْطَرَبَتِ الْبُحَيْرَةُ.

Jesus had not yet come to them, and the sea began to rise, because a strong wind was blowing.

١٩ 19 وَبَعْدَمَا جَذَّفَ التَّلامِيذُ نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَمْيَالٍ أَوْ أَرْبَعَةٍ، رَأَوْا يَسُوعَ يَقْتَرِبُ مِنَ الْقَارِبِ مَاشِياً عَلَى مَاءِ الْبُحَيْرَةِ، فَاسْتَوْلَى عَلَيْهِمِ الْخَوْفُ،

After they had rowed three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking upon the sea, and drawing near to the boat, and they were terrified;

٢٠ 20 فَشَجَّعَهُمْ قَائِلاً: «أَنَا هُوَ لَا تَخَافُوا!»

but he said to them, "It is I, be not afraid."

٢١ 21 فَمَا كَادُوا يَطْلُبُونَ مِنْهُ أَنْ يَصْعَدَ إِلَى الْقَارِبِ، حَتَّى وَصَلَ الْقَارِبُ إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الْمَقْصُودِ.

Then they were willing to take him on board, and immediately the boat reached the shore they were making for.

٢٢ 22 وَفِي الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي، لَمْ يَجِدِ الْجَمْعُ الَّذِينَ بَاتُوا عَلَى الضَّفَّةِ الْمُقَابِلَةِ مِنَ الْبُحَيْرَةِ إِلّا قَارِباً وَاحِداً. وَكَانُوا يَعْرِفُونَ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ لَمْ يَرْكَبِ الْقَارِبَ مَعَ تَلامِيذِهِ (بِالأَمْسِ)، بَلِ اسْتَقَلَّهُ التَّلامِيذُ وَحْدَهُمْ.

The crowd that remained on the other side of the sea had seen that there was only one small boat there, and that Jesus had not gone aboard with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away by themselves.

٢٣ 23 ثُمَّ جَاءَتْ قَوَارِبُ أُخْرَى مِنْ طَبَرِيَّةَ، وَرَسَتْ بِالْقُرْبِ مِنَ الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي أَكَلُوا فِيهِ الْخُبْزَ بَعْدَمَا شَكَرَ الرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِ.

So, on the following day, when boats came from Tiberias near the place were they had eaten bread, after the Lord had given thanks, they got into the boats themselves,

٢٤ 24 فَلَمَّا لَمْ يَجِدِ الْجَمْعُ يَسُوعَ وَلا تَلامِيذَهُ هُنَاكَ، رَكِبُوا تِلْكَ الْقَوَارِبَ وَجَاءُوا إِلَى كَفْرَنَاحُومَ بَاحِثِينَ عَنْ يَسُوعَ.

when they saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, and went to Capernaum to look for Jesus.

٢٥ 25 فَلَمَّا وَجَدُوهُ عَلَى الضَّفَّةِ الْمُقَابِلَةِ مِنَ الْبُحَيْرَةِ، قَالُوا لَهُ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، مَتَى وَصَلْتَ إِلَى هُنَا؟»

When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, "Rabbi, when did you get here?"

٢٦ 26 أَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: أَنْتُمْ تَبْحَثُونَ عَنِّي لَا لأَنَّكُمْ رَأَيْتُمُ الآيَاتِ، بَلْ لأَنَّكُمْ أَكَلْتُمْ وَشَبِعْتُمْ مِنْ تِلْكَ الأَرْغِفَةِ.

Jesus answered. "In solemn truth I tell you that you are looking for me, not because you saw miracles signs, but because you ate of the bread and were filled.

٢٧ 27 لَا تَسْعَوْا وَرَاءَ الطَّعَامِ الْفَانِي، بَلْ وَرَاءَ الطَّعَامِ الْبَاقِي إِلَى الْحَيَاةِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ، الَّذِي يُعْطِيكُمْ إِيَّاهُ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ، لأَنَّ هَذَا الطَّعَامَ قَدْ وَضَعَ اللهُ الآبُ خَتْمَهُ عَلَيْهِ». (aiōnios g166)

"Labor not for food which perishes, but for the food that endures eternal life - that which the Son of man will give you; for on the Father - God - has set his seal." (aiōnios g166)

٢٨ 28 فَسَأَلُوهُ: «مَاذَا نَفْعَلُ لِنَعْمَلَ مَا يَطْلُبُهُ اللهُ؟»

"What are we to do habitually," they asked him, "that we may keep working the words of God?"

٢٩ 29 أَجَابَ يَسُوعُ: «الْعَمَلُ الَّذِي يَطْلُبُهُ اللهُ هُوَ أَنْ تُؤْمِنُوا بِمَنْ أَرْسَلَهُ».

"This is the work of God," answered Jesus, "that you believe on him whom He has sent you."

٣٠ 30 فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «مَا الآيَةُ الَّتِي تَعْمَلُهَا لِنَرَاهَا وَنُؤْمِنَ بِكَ؟ مَاذَا تَقْدِرُ أَنْ تَعْمَلَ؟

The they said to him. "What sign, then, are you performing, so that we may see it and believe in you? What work are you doing?

٣١ 31 فَإِنَّ آبَاءَنَا أَكَلُوا الْمَنَّ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ كَمَا جَاءَ فِي الْكِتَابِ: أَعْطَاهُمْ مَنَّ السَّمَاءِ خُبْزاً لِيَأْكُلُوا!»

"Our fathers ate manna in the wilderness, as it is written, ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’"

٣٢ 32 فَأَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ مُوسَى لَمْ يُعْطِكُمْ خُبْزاً مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، وَإِنَّمَا أَبِي هُوَ الَّذِي يُعْطِيكُمُ الآنَ خُبْزَ السَّمَاءِ الْحَقِيقِيَّ،

"In solemn truth I tell you," said Jesus in reply, "Moses did not give you the bread out of heaven, but my Father does give you the true bread out of heaven;

٣٣ 33 فَخُبْزُ اللهِ هُوَ النَّازِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ الْوَاهِبُ حَيَاةً لِلْعَالَمِ».

"for the bread of God is what come down from heaven, and gives life to the world."

٣٤ 34 قَالُوا لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، أَعْطِنَا فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ هَذَا الْخُبْزَ».

"Ah, Sir," said they, "evermore give us this bread."

٣٥ 35 فَأَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «أَنَا هُوَ خُبْزُ الْحَيَاةِ. فَالَّذِي يُقْبِلُ إِلَيَّ لَا يَجُوعُ، وَالَّذِي يُؤْمِنُ بِي لَا يَعْطَشُ أَبَداً.

"I myself am the bread of life," answered Jesus; "he who comes to me shall never hunger, and he that believes on me shall never thirst again.

٣٦ 36 وَلكِنْ قُلْتُ لَكُمْ إِنَّكُمْ رَأَيْتُمُونِي وَلا تُؤْمِنُونَ،

"But as I told you, you have seen me, and yet you do not believe.

٣٧ 37 وَلكِنَّ كُلَّ مَا يَهَبُهُ الآبُ لِي سَيَأْتِي إِلَيَّ، وَمَنْ يَأْتِ إِلَيَّ لَا أَطْرَحْهُ إِلَى الْخَارِجِ أَبَداً،

"Everyone whom the Father gives me will come to me; and him who comes to me I will never reject.

٣٨ 38 فَقَدْ نَزَلْتُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، لَا لأُتِمَّ مَشِيئَتِي، بَلْ مَشِيئَةَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي.

"For I am come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

٣٩ 39 وَمَشِيئَتُهُ هِيَ أَنْ لَا أَدَعَ أَحَدَاً مِمَّنْ وَهَبَهُمْ لِي يَهْلِكُ، بَلْ أُقِيمُهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ.

"And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should not lose one of all those whom he has given me, but should raise them up at the last day.

٤٠ 40 نَعَمْ! إِنَّ مَشِيئَةَ أَبِي هِيَ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَرَى الاِبْنَ وَيُؤْمِنُ بِهِ تَكُونُ لَهُ الْحَيَاةُ الأَبَدِيَّةُ، وَسَأُقِيمُهُ أَنَا فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ». (aiōnios g166)

"For this is my Fathers will, that every one who beholds the Son and believes on him, shall have eternal life. and I will raise him up at the last day." (aiōnios g166)

٤١ 41 فَأَخَذَ الْيَهُودُ يَتَذَمَّرُونَ عَلَى يَسُوعَ لأَنَّهُ قَالَ: «أَنَا الْخُبْزُ الَّذِي نَزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ».

Then the Jews began to find fault with Jesus, because he said, "I am the bread which comes down out of heaven," and they kept asking.

٤٢ 42 وَقَالُوا: «أَلَيْسَ هَذَا يَسُوعَ ابْنَ يُوسُفَ، الَّذِي نَعْرِفُ نَحْنُ أَبَاهُ وَأُمَّهُ، فَكَيْفَ يَقُولُ: إِنِّي نَزَلْتُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ؟»

"Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph? Do we not know his father and mother? How is it that he now says, ‘I have come down from heaven’?"

٤٣ 43 فَأَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «لا تَتَذَمَّرُوا فِيمَا بَيْنَكُمْ!

"Do not find fault with me among yourselves,"

٤٤ 44 لَا يَقْدِرُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ إِلَيَّ إِلّا إِذَا اجْتَذَبَهُ الآبُ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي. وَأَنَا أُقِيمُهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ.

answered Jesus; "no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him; then I will raise him up on the last day.

٤٥ 45 جَاءَ فِي كُتُبِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ: سَيَتَعَلَّمُ الْجَمِيعُ مِنَ اللهِ. وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ الآبَ وَيَتَعَلَّمُ مِنْهُ يَأْتِي إِلَيَّ.

"It is written in the Prophets, "And they shall all of them be taught of God. Every one who has listened to the father and learns from him, comes to me.

٤٦ 46 وَلَيْسَ مَعْنَى هَذَا أَنَّ أَحَداً رَأَى الآبَ: فَمَا رَآهُ إِلّا الَّذِي كَانَ مَعَ اللهِ. هُوَ وَحْدَهُ رَأَى الآبَ.

"Not that any one has seen the Father, except the one who is from God; he has seen the Father.

٤٧ 47 الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ الَّذِي يُؤْمِنُ بِي فَلَهُ حَيَاةٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ. (aiōnios g166)

"I tell you solemnly that he who believes has eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

٤٨ 48 أَنَا هُوَ خُبْزُ الْحَيَاةِ.

"I am the bread of life.

٤٩ 49 أَكَلَ أَبَاؤُكُمُ الْمَنَّ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ ثُمَّ مَاتُوا،

"Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; yet they died.

٥٠ 50 وَلكِنْ هَا هُنَا الْخُبْزُ النَّازِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ لِيَأْكُلَ مِنْهُ الإِنْسَانُ فَلا يَمُوتُ.

"This is the bread that comes down from heaven, that one may eat thereof and never die.

٥١ 51 أَنَا الْخُبْزُ الْحَيُّ الَّذِي نَزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ. إِنْ أَكَلَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْخُبْزِ يَحْيَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ. وَالْخُبْزُ الَّذِي أُقَدِّمُهُ أَنَا، هُوَ جَسَدِي، أَبْذُلُهُ لِكَيْ يَحْيَا الْعَالَمُ». (aiōn g165)

"I myself am the living bread that has come down from heaven. Any one who eats this bread will live forever; and moreover, the bread which I will give is my flesh, given for the life of the world." (aiōn g165)

٥٢ 52 فَأَثَارَ هَذَا الْكَلامُ جِدَالاً عَنِيفاً بَيْنَ الْيَهُودِ، وَتَسَاءَلُوا: «كَيْفَ يَقْدِرُ هَذَا أَنْ يُعْطِيَنَا جَسَدَهُ لِنَأْكُلَهُ؟»

Then the Jews began to dispute among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?"

٥٣ 53 فَأَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِذَا لَمْ تَأْكُلُوا جَسَدَ ابْنِ الإِنْسَانِ وَتَشْرَبُوا دَمَهُ فَلا حَيَاةَ لَكُمْ فِي دَاخِلِكُمْ.

"I tell you solemnly," said Jesus, "that unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you have no life in you.

٥٤ 54 مَنْ يَأْكُلْ جَسَدِي وَيَشْرَبْ دَمِي، فَلَهُ حَيَاةٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ، وَأَنَا أُقِيمُهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ، (aiōnios g166)

"He who feeds upon my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. (aiōnios g166)

٥٥ 55 لأَنَّ جَسَدِي هُوَ الطَّعَامُ الْحَقِيقِيُّ، وَدَمِي هُوَ الشَّرَابُ الْحَقِيقِيُّ.

"For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.

٥٦ 56 وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَأْكُلْ جَسَدِي وَيَشْرَبْ دَمِي، يَثْبُتْ فِيَّ وَأَنَا فِيهِ.

"He who feeds upon my flesh abides in me and I in him.

٥٧ 57 وَكَمَا أَنِّي أَحْيَا بِالآبِ الْحَيِّ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي، فَكَذلِكَ يَحْيَا بِي مَنْ يَأْكُلُنِي.

"Just as the living Father has sent me, and I live by the Father, so also that man who feeds on me shall live by me.

٥٨ 58 هَذَا هُوَ الْخُبْزُ الَّذِي نَزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، وَهُوَ لَيْسَ كَالْمَنِّ الَّذِي أَكَلَهُ أَبَاؤُكُمْ ثُمَّ مَاتُوا. فَالَّذِي يَأْكُلُ هَذَا الْخُبْزَ يَحْيَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ». (aiōn g165)

"This is the bread which came down from heaven; not such as your fathers ate and died, for he who feeds upon this bread shall live forever." (aiōn g165)

٥٩ 59 هَذَا كُلُّهُ قَالَهُ يَسُوعُ فِي الْمَجْمَعِ وَهُوَ يُعَلِّمُ فِي كَفْرَنَاحُومَ.

He spoke these words while in the synagogue, while he was teaching in Capernaum.

٦٠ 60 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَهُ كَثِيرُونَ مِنْ تَلامِيذِهِ قَالُوا: «مَا أَصْعَبَ هَذَا الْكَلامَ! مَنْ يُطِيقُ سَمَاعَهُ؟»

So many of his disciples, when they heard it, said. "This teaching is unbelievable! Who can listen to him?"

٦١ 61 فَعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ فِي نَفْسِهِ أَنَّ تَلامِيذَهُ يَتَذَمَّرُونَ، فَسَأَلَهُمْ: «أَهَذَا يَبْعَثُ الشُّكُوكَ فِي نُفُوسِكُمْ؟

Jesus, conscious within himself that his disciples were finding fault with him about his teaching, said to them.

٦٢ 62 فَمَاذَا لَوْ رَأَيْتُمُ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ صَاعِداً إِلَى حَيْثُ كَانَ قَبْلاً؟

"Does this displease you? What then if you were to behold the Son of man ascending to where he was before?

٦٣ 63 الرُّوحُ هُوَ الَّذِي يُعْطِي الْحَيَاةَ، أَمَّا الْجَسَدُ فَلا يُفِيدُ شَيْئاً. الْكَلامُ الَّذِي كَلَّمْتُكُمْ بِهِ هُوَ رُوحٌ وَحَيَاةٌ.

"The spirit is what gives life; the flesh is of no avail. The words which I have been speaking to you, are spirit and are life.

٦٤ 64 وَلكِنَّ بَعْضاً مِنْكُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ!» فَقَدْ كَانَ يَسُوعُ مُنْذُ الْبَدْءِ يَعْرِفُ مَنْ هُمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ، وَمَنْ هُوَ الَّذِي سَيَخُونُهُ.

"Yet there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was who should betray him.

٦٥ 65 ثُمَّ قَالَ: «لِذلِكَ قُلْتُ لَكُمْ: لَا يَقْدِرُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ إِلَيَّ إِلّا إِذَا وَهَبَهُ الآبُ ذلِكَ».

So he added, "This is why I told you that no on can come to me unless it be given from the Father."

٦٦ 66 مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ هَجَرَهُ كَثِيرُونَ مِنْ أَتْبَاعِهِ، وَلَمْ يَعُودُوا يَتْبَعُونَهُ!

Therefore many of his disciples drew back and no longer companied with him.

٦٧ 67 فَقَالَ لِلاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ تِلْمِيذاً: «وَأَنْتُمْ أَتُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَذْهَبُوا مِثْلَهُمْ؟»

So Jesus appealed to the Twelve. "You also do not wish to leave me, do you?"

٦٨ 68 فَأَجَابَهُ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ: «إِلَى مَنْ نَذْهَبُ يَا رَبُّ وَعِنْدَكَ كَلامُ الْحَيَاةِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ. (aiōnios g166)

Simon Peter answered. "To whom shall we go Master? You have words of eternal life; (aiōnios g166)

٦٩ 69 نَحْنُ آمَنَّا وَعَرَفْنَا أَنَّكَ قُدُّوسُ اللهِ!»

"and we have learned to believe and we know that you are the holy one of God."

٧٠ 70 فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ: «أَلَيْسَ أَنَا اخْتَرْتُكُمْ أَنْتُمُ الاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ، وَمَعَ ذلِكَ فَوَاحِدٌ مِنْكُمْ شَيْطَانٌ؟»

In reply Jesus said to them. "Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? And yet even of you one is an enemy."
