مَتَّى 26
| وَلَمَّا أَنْهَى يَسُوعُ هَذِهِ الأَقْوَالَ كُلَّهَا، قَالَ لِتَلامِيذِهِ: | ١ 1 |
After Jesus had said all this, he told his disciples,
| «أَنْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ أَنَّهُ بَعْدَ يَوْمَيْنِ يَأْتِي الْفِصْحُ، وَسَوْفَ يُسَلَّمُ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ لِيُصْلَبَ». | ٢ 2 |
“You know that it's Passover in two days time, and the Son of man will be handed over to be crucified.”
| وَعِنْدَئِذٍ اجْتَمَعَ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَشُيُوخُ الشَّعْبِ فِي دَارِ رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ الْمَدْعُوِّ قَيَافَا، | ٣ 3 |
Then the chief priests and the elders of the people gathered in the courtyard of Caiaphas, the high priest.
| وَتَآمَرُوا لِيَقْبِضُوا عَلَى يَسُوعَ بِمَكْرٍ وَيَقْتُلُوهُ. | ٤ 4 |
There they plotted to arrest Jesus on some deceitful pretext and kill him.
| وَلَكِنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «لا نَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي الْعِيدِ، لِئَلّا يَحْدُثَ اضْطِرَابٌ بَيْنَ الشَّعْبِ!» | ٥ 5 |
But they said, “Let's not do this during the festival so that the people don't riot.”
| وَإِذْ كَانَ يَسُوعُ فِي بَيْتِ عَنْيَا عِنْدَ سِمْعَانَ الأَبْرَصِ، | ٦ 6 |
While Jesus was staying at Simon the leper's house in Bethany,
| جَاءَتْ إِلَيْهِ امْرَأَةٌ تَحْمِلُ قَارُورَةَ عِطْرٍ غَالِي الثَّمَنِ، وَسَكَبَتْهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَهُوَ مُتَّكِىءٌ. | ٧ 7 |
a woman came over to him carrying an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume. She poured it on Jesus' head while he was sitting eating. But when the disciples saw what she did, they were upset.
| فَاسْتَاءَ التَّلامِيذُ لَمَّا رَأَوْا ذَلِكَ، وَقَالُوا: «لِمَاذَا هَذَا التَّبْذِيرُ؟ | ٨ 8 |
“What a terrible waste!” they objected.
| فَقَدْ كَانَ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يُبَاعَ هَذَا الْعِطْرُ بِمَالٍ كَثِيرٍ، وَيُوْهَبَ الثَّمَنُ لِلْفُقَرَاءِ؟» | ٩ 9 |
“This perfume could've been sold for a lot of money and given to the poor!”
| وَإِذْ عَلِمَ يَسُوعُ بِذلِكَ، قَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِمَاذَا تُضَايِقُونَ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةَ؟ إِنَّهَا عَمِلَتْ بِي عَمَلاً حَسَناً. | ١٠ 10 |
Jesus was aware of what was going on and told them, “Why are you upset with this woman? She's done something wonderful for me!
| فَإِنَّ الْفُقَرَاءَ عِنْدَكُمْ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ؛ أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَنْ أَكُونَ عِنْدَكُمْ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ. | ١١ 11 |
You'll always have the poor with you, but you won't always have me.
| فَإِنَّهَا إِذْ سَكَبَتِ الْعِطْرَ عَلَى جِسْمِي، فَقَدْ فَعَلَتْ ذَلِكَ إِعْدَاداً لِدَفْنِي. | ١٢ 12 |
By pouring this perfume on my body she's prepared me for burial.
| وَالْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُ حَيْثُ يُنَادَى بِهَذَا الإِنْجِيلِ فِي الْعَالَمِ أَجْمَعَ، يُحَدَّثُ أَيْضاً بِمَا عَمِلَتْهُ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةُ، إِحْيَاءً لِذِكْرِهَا». | ١٣ 13 |
I tell you the truth: wherever in the world this good news is spread, the story of what this woman has done will also be told in memory of her.”
| عِنْدَئِذٍ ذَهَبَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ، وَهُوَ الْمَدْعُوُّ يَهُوذَا الإِسْخَرْيُوطِيُّ، إِلَى رُؤَسَاءِ الْكَهَنَةِ، | ١٤ 14 |
Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve disciples, went to the chief priests
| وَقَالَ: «كَمْ تُعْطُونَنِي لأُسَلِّمَهُ إِلَيْكُمْ؟» فَوَزَنُوا لَهُ ثَلاثِينَ قِطْعَةً مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ. | ١٥ 15 |
and asked them, “How much will you pay me for betraying Jesus to you?” They paid him thirty silver coins.
| وَمِنْ ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ، أَخَذَ يَهُوذَا يَتَرَقَّبُ الْفُرْصَةَ لِتَسْلِيمِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
From then on he looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ مِنْ أَيَّامِ الْفَطِيرِ، تَقَدَّمَ التَّلامِيذُ إِلَى يَسُوعَ يَسْأَلُونَ: «أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ نُجَهِّزَ لَكَ الْفِصْحَ لِتَأْكُلَ؟» | ١٧ 17 |
On the first day of the festival of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked him, “Where do you want us to prepare the Passover meal for you to eat?”
| أَجَابَهُمْ: «اُدْخُلُوا الْمَدِينَةَ، وَاذْهَبُوا إِلَى فُلانٍ وَقُولُوا لَهُ: الْمُعَلِّمُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ سَاعَتِي قَدِ اقْتَرَبَتْ، وَعِنْدَكَ سَأَعْمَلُ الْفِصْحَ مَعَ تَلامِيذِي». | ١٨ 18 |
Jesus told them, “Go into the city and find this particular man, and tell him that the Teacher says, ‘My time is approaching. I'm coming to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.’”
| فَفَعَلَ التَّلامِيذُ مَا أَمَرَهُمْ بِهِ يَسُوعُ، وَجَهَّزُوا الْفِصْحَ هُنَاكَ. | ١٩ 19 |
The disciples did as Jesus told them, and prepared the Passover meal there.
| وَعِنْدَ الْمَسَاءِ اتَّكَأَ مَعَ الاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
When evening came he sat down to eat with the Twelve.
| وَبَيْنَمَا كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ، قَالَ: «الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ وَاحِداً مِنْكُمْ سَيُسَلِّمُنِي». | ٢١ 21 |
While they were eating he told them, “I tell you the truth: one of you is going to betray me.”
| فَاسْتَوْلَى عَلَيْهِمِ الْحُزْنُ الشَّدِيدُ، وَأَخَذَ كُلٌّ مِنْهُمْ يَسْأَلُهُ: «هَلْ أَنَا يَا رَبُّ؟» | ٢٢ 22 |
They were extremely upset. One after the other they asked him, “Lord, it's not me, is it?”
| فَأَجَابَ: «الَّذِي يَغْمِسُ يَدَهُ مَعِي فِي الصَّحْفَةِ هُوَ الَّذِي يُسَلِّمُنِي. | ٢٣ 23 |
“The one who's dipped his hand into the dish with me will betray me,” Jesus replied.
| إِنَّ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَمْضِيَ كَمَا قَدْ كُتِبَ عَنْهُ، وَلَكِنِ الْوَيْلُ لِذَلِكَ الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي يُسَلِّمُ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ. كَانَ خَيْراً لِذَلِكَ الرَّجُلِ لَوْ لَمْ يُوْلَدْ!» | ٢٤ 24 |
“The Son of man will die just as it was prophesied about him, but what a disaster it will be for the man who betrays the Son of man! It would be better for that man if he'd never been born!”
| فَسَأَلَهُ يَهُوذَا مُسَلِّمُهُ: «هَلْ أَنَا هُوَ يَا مُعَلِّمُ؟» أَجَابَهُ: «أَنْتَ قُلْتَ!» | ٢٥ 25 |
Judas, the one who would betray Jesus, asked “It's not me, is it, Rabbi?” “You said it,” Jesus replied.
| وَبَيْنَمَا كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ، أَخَذَ يَسُوعُ رَغِيفاً، وَبَارَكَ، وَكَسَّرَ وَأَعْطَى التَّلامِيذَ وَقَالَ: «خُذُوا، كُلُوا: هَذَا هُوَ جَسَدِي!» | ٢٦ 26 |
While they were eating, Jesus took some bread and blessed it. Then he broke it and gave pieces to the disciples. “Take and eat this for it is my body,” said Jesus.
| ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الْكَأْسَ، وَشَكَرَ، وَأَعْطَاهُمْ قَائِلاً: «اشْرَبُوا مِنْهَا كُلُّكُمْ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Then he picked up the cup, blessed it, and gave it to them. “Drink from it, all of you,” he told them.
| فَإِنَّ هَذَا هُوَ دَمِي الَّذِي لِلْعَهْدِ الْجَدِيدِ وَالَّذِي يُسْفَكُ مِنْ أَجْلِ كَثِيرِينَ لِمَغْفِرَةِ الْخَطَايَا. | ٢٨ 28 |
“For this is my blood of the agreement, poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
| عَلَى أَنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنِّي لَا أَشْرَبُ بَعْدَ الْيَوْمِ مِنْ نِتَاجِ الْكَرْمَةِ هَذَا حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي فِيهِ أَشْرَبُهُ مَعَكُمْ جَدِيداً فِي مَلَكُوتِ أَبِي». | ٢٩ 29 |
However, I tell you, I won't drink this fruit of the vine until the day I drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father.”
| ثُمَّ رَتَّلُوا، وَانْطَلَقُوا خَارِجاً إِلَى جَبَلِ الزَّيْتُونِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
After they'd sung a song, they left for the Mount of Olives.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ قَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ سَتَشُكُّونَ فِيَّ كُلُّكُمْ. لأَنَّهُ قَدْ كُتِبَ: سَأَضْرِبُ الرَّاعِيَ، فَتَتَشَتَّتُ خِرَافُ الْقَطِيعِ. | ٣١ 31 |
“All of you will abandon me tonight,” Jesus told them. “As Scripture says, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the flock of sheep will be completely scattered.’
| وَلَكِنْ بَعْدَ قِيَامَتِي أَسْبِقُكُمْ إِلَى الْجَلِيلِ». | ٣٢ 32 |
But after I have risen, I'll go ahead of you to Galilee.”
| فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ بُطْرُسُ قَائِلاً: «وَلَوْ شَكَّ فِيكَ الْجَمِيعُ، فَأَنَا لَنْ أَشُكَّ!» | ٣٣ 33 |
But Peter objected, “Even if everyone else abandons you, I'll never abandon you.”
| أَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكَ: إِنَّكَ فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ، قَبْلَ أَنْ يَصِيحَ الدِّيكُ، تَكُونُ قَدْ أَنْكَرْتَنِي ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ!» | ٣٤ 34 |
“I'm telling you the truth,” Jesus told him, “This very night, before the cock crows, you'll deny me three times.”
| فَقَالَ بُطْرُسُ: «وَلَوْ كَانَ عَلَيَّ أَنْ أَمُوتَ مَعَكَ، لَا أُنْكِرُك أَبَداً!» وَقَالَ التَّلامِيذُ كُلُّهُمْ مِثْلَ هَذَا الْقَوْلِ. | ٣٥ 35 |
“Even if I have to die with you, I'll never deny you!” Peter insisted. And all the disciples said the same thing.
| ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ يَسُوعُ وَتَلامِيذُهُ إِلَى بُسْتَانٍ يُدْعَى جَثْسَيْمَانِي، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اجْلِسُوا هُنَا حَتَّى أَذْهَبَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ وَأُصَلِّيَ». | ٣٦ 36 |
Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane. He told them, “Sit down here while I go over there and pray.”
| وَقَدْ أَخَذَ مَعَهُ بُطْرُسَ وَابْنَيْ زَبَدِي وَبَدَأَ يَشْعُرُ بِالْحُزْنِ وَالْكَآبَةِ. | ٣٧ 37 |
He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee with him, and he began to suffer agonizing sorrow and distress.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «نَفْسِي حَزِينَةٌ جِدّاً حَتَّى الْمَوْتِ! ابْقَوْا هُنَا وَاسْهَرُوا مَعِي!» | ٣٨ 38 |
Then he said to them, “I am so overwhelmed with sadness that it's killing me. Wait here and keep watch with me.”
| وَابْتَعَدَ عَنْهُمْ قَلِيلاً وَارْتَمَى عَلَى وَجْهِهِ يُصَلِّي، قَائِلاً: «يَا أَبِي، إِنْ كَانَ مُمْكِناً، فَلْتَعْبُرْ عَنِّي هَذِهِ الْكَأْسُ: وَلَكِنْ، لَا كَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنَا، بَلْ كَمَا تُرِيدُ أَنْتَ!» | ٣٩ 39 |
He went a little farther forward, fell face down, and prayed. “My Father, please, if it's possible, let this cup of suffering be taken from me,” Jesus asked. “Even so, may it not be what I want but what you want.”
| وَرَجَعَ إِلَى التَّلامِيذِ فَوَجَدَهُمْ نَائِمِينَ، فَقَالَ لِبُطْرُسَ: «أَهَكَذَا لَمْ تَقْدِرُوا أَنْ تَسْهَرُوا مَعِي سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً؟ | ٤٠ 40 |
He went back to the disciples and found them asleep. He said to Peter, “What, you couldn't stay awake with me for just one hour?
| اسْهَرُوا وَصَلُّوا لِكَيْ لَا تَدْخُلُوا فِي تَجْرِبَةٍ. إِنَّ الرُّوحَ نَشِيطٌ؛ أَمَّا الْجَسَدُ فَضَعِيفٌ». | ٤١ 41 |
Stay awake and pray, so that you don't fall into temptation. Yes, the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”
| وَذَهَبَ ثَانِيَةً يُصَلِّي، فَقَالَ: «يَا أَبِي، إِنْ كَانَ لَا يُمْكِنُ أَنْ تَعْبُرَ عَنِّي هَذِهِ الْكَأْسُ إِلّا بِأَنْ أَشْرَبَهَا، فَلْتَكُنْ مَشِيئَتُك!» | ٤٢ 42 |
He went away a second time and prayed. “My Father, if this cup cannot be taken from me without me drinking from it, then your will be done,” he said.
| وَرَجَعَ إِلَى التَّلامِيذِ، فَوَجَدَهُمْ نَائِمِينَ أَيْضاً لأَنَّ النُّعَاسَ أَثْقَلَ أَعْيُنَهُمْ. | ٤٣ 43 |
He went back and found them sleeping, for they just couldn't stay awake.
| فَتَرَكَهُمْ، وَعَادَ يُصَلِّي مَرَّةً ثَالِثَةً، وَرَدَّدَ الْكَلامَ نَفْسَهُ. | ٤٤ 44 |
So he left them once more, and went off and prayed a third time, repeating the same things.
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى تَلامِيذِهِ وَقَالَ: «نَامُوا الآنَ وَاسْتَرِيحُوا! حَانَتِ السَّاعَةُ، وَسَوْفَ يُسَلَّمُ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ إِلَى أَيْدِي الْخَاطِئِينَ. | ٤٥ 45 |
Then he returned to the disciples, and told them, “How can you still be sleeping and resting? Look, the time has come. The Son of man is about to be betrayed into the hands of sinners!
| قُومُوا لِنَذْهَبَ! هَا قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ الَّذِي يُسَلِّمُنِي». | ٤٦ 46 |
Get up, let's go! See, the one who's betraying me has arrived.”
| وَفِيمَا هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ، إِذَا يَهُوذَا، أَحَدُ الاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ، قَدْ وَصَلَ وَمَعَهُ جَمْعٌ عَظِيمٌ يَحْمِلُونَ السُّيُوفَ وَالْعِصِيَّ، وَقَدْ أَرْسَلَهُمْ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَشُيُوخُ الشَّعْبِ. | ٤٧ 47 |
As he said this, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived with a large mob armed with swords and clubs sent by the chief priests and elders of the people.
| وَكَانَ مُسَلِّمُهُ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُمْ عَلامَةً قَائِلاً: «الَّذِي أُقَبِّلُهُ هُوَ هُوَ؛ فَاقْبِضُوا عَلَيْهِ!» | ٤٨ 48 |
The betrayer had arranged to give them a signal: “The one that I kiss, that's him—arrest him,” he'd told them.
| فَتَقَدَّمَ فِي الْحَالِ إِلَى يَسُوعَ وَقَالَ: «سَلامٌ يَا سَيِّدِي!» وَقَبَّلَهُ. | ٤٩ 49 |
Judas came up to Jesus immediately, and said, “Hello, Rabbi,” and kissed him.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «يَا صَاحِبِي، لِمَاذَا أَنْتَ هُنَا؟» فَتَقَدَّمَ الْجَمْعُ وَأَلْقَوْا الْقَبْضَ عَلَى يَسُوعَ. | ٥٠ 50 |
“My friend, do what you came to do,” Jesus said to Judas. So they came and grabbed hold of Jesus, and arrested him.
| وَإذَا وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَ يَسُوعَ قَدْ مَدَّ يَدَهُ وَاسْتَلَّ سَيْفَهُ، وَضَرَبَ عَبْدَ رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ، فَقَطَعَ أُذُنَهُ. | ٥١ 51 |
One of those who was with Jesus reached for his sword and pulled it out. He struck the high priest's servant, cutting off his ear.
| فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ لَهُ: «رُدَّ سَيْفَكَ إِلَى غِمْدِهِ! فَإِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَلْجَأُونَ إِلَى السَّيْفِ، بِالسَّيْفِ يَهْلِكُونَ! | ٥٢ 52 |
But Jesus told him, “Put your sword away. Everyone who fights with the sword will die by the sword.
| أَمْ تَظُنُّ أَنِّي لَا أَقْدِرُ الآنَ أَنْ أَطْلُبَ إِلَى أَبِي فَيُرْسِلَ لِي أَكْثَرَ مِنِ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ جَيْشاً مِنَ الْمَلائِكَةِ؟ | ٥٣ 53 |
Don't you think I could ask my Father, and he'd immediately send more than twelve legions of angels?
| وَلَكِنْ كَيْفَ يَتِمُّ الْكِتَابُ حَيْثُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ مَا يَحْدُثُ الآنَ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَحْدُثَ؟» | ٥٤ 54 |
But then how could the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must be like this?”
| ثُمَّ وَجَّهَ يَسُوعُ كَلامَهُ إِلَى الْجُمُوعِ قَائِلاً: «خَرَجْتُمْ بِالسُّيُوفِ وَالْعِصِيِّ لِتَقْبِضُوا عَلَيَّ كَمَا عَلَى لِصٍّ. كُنْتُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ بَيْنَكُمْ أُعَلِّمُ فِي الْهَيْكَلِ، وَلَمْ تَقْبِضُوا عَلَيَّ! | ٥٥ 55 |
Then Jesus told the mob, “Have you come with swords and clubs to arrest me as if I was some kind of dangerous criminal? Every day I sat in the Temple teaching and you didn't arrest me then.
| وَلَكِنْ، قَدْ حَدَثَ هَذَا كُلُّهُ لِتَتِمَّ كِتَابَاتُ الأَنْبِيَاءِ!» عِنْدَئِذٍ تَرَكَهُ التَّلامِيذُ كُلُّهُمْ وَهَرَبُوا! | ٥٦ 56 |
But all this is happening to fulfill what the prophets wrote.” Then all the disciples abandoned him and ran away.
| وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ قَبَضُوا عَلَى يَسُوعَ، فَسَاقُوهُ إِلَى قَيَافَا رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ، وَقَدِ اجْتَمَعَ عِنْدَهُ الْكَتَبَةُ وَالشُّيُوخُ. | ٥٧ 57 |
Those who'd arrested Jesus took him to the home of Caiaphas, the high priest, where the religious teachers and elders had gathered.
| وَتَبِعَهُ بُطْرُسُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ إِلَى دَارِ رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ، ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ إِلَى الدَّاخِلِ، وَجَلَسَ بَيْنَ الْحُرَّاسِ لِيَرَى النِّهَايَةَ. | ٥٨ 58 |
Peter followed him at a distance, and went into the high priest's courtyard. He sat there with the guards to see how things would end.
| وَانْعَقَدَ الْمَجْلِسُ مِنْ رُؤَسَاءِ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالشُّيُوخِ كُلِّهِمْ، وَبَحَثُوا عَنْ شَهَادَةِ زُورٍ عَلَى يَسُوعَ، لِيَحْكُمُوا عَلَيْهِ بِالْمَوْتِ، | ٥٩ 59 |
The chief priests and the whole council were trying to find some false evidence against Jesus so they could put him to death.
| وَلَكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَجِدُوا، مَعَ أَنَّهُ حَضَرَ شُهُودُ زُورٍ كَثِيرُونَ. أَخِيراً تَقَدَّمَ اثْنَانِ | ٦٠ 60 |
But they couldn't find anything, even though many false witnesses came forward. Eventually two came forward
| وَقَالا: «هَذَا قَالَ: إِنِّي أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَهْدِمَ هَيْكَلَ اللهِ وَأَبْنِيَهُ فِي ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ». | ٦١ 61 |
and reported, “This man said, ‘I can destroy God's Temple, and rebuild it in three days.’”
| فَوَقَفَ رَئِيسُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَسَأَلَهُ: «أَمَا تُجِيبُ بِشَيْءٍ عَلَى مَا يَشْهَدُ بِهِ هَذَانِ عَلَيْكَ؟» | ٦٢ 62 |
The high priest stood up and asked Jesus, “Have you no answer? What do you have to say in your defense?”
| وَلَكِنَّ يَسُوعَ ظَلَّ صَامِتاً. فَعَادَ رَئِيسُ الْكَهَنَةِ يَسْأَلُهُ: قَالَ: «أَسْتَحْلِفُكَ بِاللهِ الْحَيِّ أَنْ تَقُولَ لَنَا: هَلْ أَنْتَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ اللهِ؟» | ٦٣ 63 |
But Jesus remained silent. The high priest said to Jesus, “In the name of the living God I place you under oath. Tell us if you are the Messiah, the Son of God.”
| فَأَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «أَنْتَ قُلْتَ! وَأَقُولُ لَكُمْ أَيْضاً إِنَّكُمْ مُنْذُ الآنَ سَوْفَ تَرَوْنَ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ جَالِساً عَنْ يَمِينِ الْقُدْرَةِ ثُمَّ آتِياً عَلَى سُحُبِ السَّمَاءِ!» | ٦٤ 64 |
“You said it,” Jesus replied. “And I also tell you that in the future you'll see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of the Almighty, and coming on the clouds of heaven.”
| فَشَقَّ رَئِيسُ الْكَهَنَةِ ثِيَابَهُ وَصَرَخَ: «قَدْ جَدَّفَ! لَا حَاجَةَ بِنَا بَعْدُ إِلَى شُهُودٍ. وَهَا أَنْتُمْ قَدْ سَمِعْتُمْ تَجْدِيفَهُ. | ٦٥ 65 |
Then the high priest tore his clothes, and said, “He's speaking blasphemy! Why do we need any witnesses? Look, now you've heard for yourselves his blasphemy!
| فَمَا رَأْيُكُمْ؟» أَجَابُوا: «يَسْتَحِقُّ عُقُوبَةَ الْمَوْتِ!» | ٦٦ 66 |
What's your verdict?” “Guilty! He deserves to die!” they answered.
| فَبَصَقُوا فِي وَجْهِهِ، وَضَرَبُوهُ، وَلَطَمَهُ بَعْضُهُمْ | ٦٧ 67 |
Then they spat in his face and beat him. Some of them slapped him with their hands,
| قَائِلِينَ: «تَنَبَّأْ لَنَا، أَيُّهَا الْمَسِيحُ، مَنْ ضَرَبَك!» | ٦٨ 68 |
and said, “Prophesy to us, you ‘Messiah’! Who just hit you?”
| فِي تِلْكَ الأَثْنَاءِ كَانَ بُطْرُسُ جَالِساً فِي الدَّارِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، فَتَقَدَّمَتْ إِلَيْهِ خَادِمَةٌ وَقَالَتْ: «وَأَنْتَ كُنْتَ مَعَ يَسُوعَ الْجَلِيلِيِّ». | ٦٩ 69 |
Meanwhile Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A servant girl came up to him, and said, “You were with Jesus the Galilean too!”
| فَأَنْكَرَ بُطْرُسُ أَمَامَ الْجَمِيعِ وَقَالَ: «لا أَدْرِي مَا تَقُولِينَ!» | ٧٠ 70 |
But he denied it in front of everyone. “I don't know what you're talking about,” he said.
| ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى مَدْخَلِ الدَّارِ، فَعَرَفَتْهُ خَادِمَةٌ أُخْرَى، فَقَالَتْ لِلْحَاضِرِينَ هُنَاكَ: «وَهَذَا كَانَ مَعَ يَسُوعَ النَّاصِرِيِّ!» | ٧١ 71 |
When he went back to the courtyard entrance another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
| فَأَنْكَرَ بُطْرُسُ مَرَّةً ثَانِيَةً وَأَقْسَمَ: «إِنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ ذلِكَ الرَّجُلَ!» | ٧٢ 72 |
Once again he denied it, saying with an oath, “I don't know him.”
| وَبَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ تَقَدَّمَ الْوَاقِفُونَ هُنَاكَ إِلَى بُطْرُسَ وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «بِالْحَقِّ إِنَّكَ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ، فَإِنَّ لَهْجَتَكَ تَدُلُّ عَلَيْكَ!» | ٧٣ 73 |
A little while later the people standing there came up to Peter and said, “You definitely are one of them. Your accent gives you away.”
| فَابْتَدَأَ بُطْرُسُ يَلْعَنُ وَيَحْلِفُ، قَائِلاً: «إِنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ!» وَفِي الْحَالِ صَاحَ الدِّيكُ، | ٧٤ 74 |
Then he started to swear: “Curses on me if I'm a liar! I don't know the man!” Immediately the cock crowed.
| فَتَذَكَّرَ بُطْرُسُ كَلِمَةَ يَسُوعَ إِذْ قَالَ لَهُ: «قَبْلَ أَنْ يَصِيحَ الدِّيكُ تَكُونُ قَدْ أَنْكَرْتَنِي ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ». فَخَرَجَ إِلَى الْخَارِجِ، وَبَكَى بُكَاءً مُرّاً. | ٧٥ 75 |
Then Peter remembered what Jesus had told him: “Before the cock crows, three times you will deny knowing me.” He went outside and wept bitterly.
