مَتَّى 26
| وَلَمَّا أَنْهَى يَسُوعُ هَذِهِ الأَقْوَالَ كُلَّهَا، قَالَ لِتَلامِيذِهِ: | ١ 1 |
When Jesus had ended all these discourses, He said to His disciples,
| «أَنْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ أَنَّهُ بَعْدَ يَوْمَيْنِ يَأْتِي الْفِصْحُ، وَسَوْفَ يُسَلَّمُ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ لِيُصْلَبَ». | ٢ 2 |
"You know that in two days' time the Passover comes. And the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified."
| وَعِنْدَئِذٍ اجْتَمَعَ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَشُيُوخُ الشَّعْبِ فِي دَارِ رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ الْمَدْعُوِّ قَيَافَا، | ٣ 3 |
Then the High Priests and Elders of the People assembled in the court of the palace of the High Priest Caiaphas,
| وَتَآمَرُوا لِيَقْبِضُوا عَلَى يَسُوعَ بِمَكْرٍ وَيَقْتُلُوهُ. | ٤ 4 |
and consulted how to get Jesus into their power by stratagem and put Him to death.
| وَلَكِنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «لا نَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي الْعِيدِ، لِئَلّا يَحْدُثَ اضْطِرَابٌ بَيْنَ الشَّعْبِ!» | ٥ 5 |
But they said, "Not during the Festival, lest there be a riot among the people."
| وَإِذْ كَانَ يَسُوعُ فِي بَيْتِ عَنْيَا عِنْدَ سِمْعَانَ الأَبْرَصِ، | ٦ 6 |
Now when Jesus was come to Bethany and was at the house of Simon the Leper,
| جَاءَتْ إِلَيْهِ امْرَأَةٌ تَحْمِلُ قَارُورَةَ عِطْرٍ غَالِي الثَّمَنِ، وَسَكَبَتْهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَهُوَ مُتَّكِىءٌ. | ٧ 7 |
a woman came to Him with a jar of very costly, sweet-scented ointment, which she poured over His head as He reclined at table.
| فَاسْتَاءَ التَّلامِيذُ لَمَّا رَأَوْا ذَلِكَ، وَقَالُوا: «لِمَاذَا هَذَا التَّبْذِيرُ؟ | ٨ 8 |
"Why such waste?" indignantly exclaimed the disciples;
| فَقَدْ كَانَ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يُبَاعَ هَذَا الْعِطْرُ بِمَالٍ كَثِيرٍ، وَيُوْهَبَ الثَّمَنُ لِلْفُقَرَاءِ؟» | ٩ 9 |
"for this might have been sold for a considerable sum, and the money given to the poor."
| وَإِذْ عَلِمَ يَسُوعُ بِذلِكَ، قَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِمَاذَا تُضَايِقُونَ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةَ؟ إِنَّهَا عَمِلَتْ بِي عَمَلاً حَسَناً. | ١٠ 10 |
But Jesus heard it, and said to them, "Why are you vexing her? For she has done a most gracious act towards me.
| فَإِنَّ الْفُقَرَاءَ عِنْدَكُمْ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ؛ أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَنْ أَكُونَ عِنْدَكُمْ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ. | ١١ 11 |
The poor you always have with you, but me you have not always.
| فَإِنَّهَا إِذْ سَكَبَتِ الْعِطْرَ عَلَى جِسْمِي، فَقَدْ فَعَلَتْ ذَلِكَ إِعْدَاداً لِدَفْنِي. | ١٢ 12 |
In pouring this ointment over me, her object was to prepare me for burial.
| وَالْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُ حَيْثُ يُنَادَى بِهَذَا الإِنْجِيلِ فِي الْعَالَمِ أَجْمَعَ، يُحَدَّثُ أَيْضاً بِمَا عَمِلَتْهُ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةُ، إِحْيَاءً لِذِكْرِهَا». | ١٣ 13 |
In solemn truth I tell you that wherever in the whole world this Good News shall be proclaimed, this deed of hers shall be spoken of in memory of her."
| عِنْدَئِذٍ ذَهَبَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ، وَهُوَ الْمَدْعُوُّ يَهُوذَا الإِسْخَرْيُوطِيُّ، إِلَى رُؤَسَاءِ الْكَهَنَةِ، | ١٤ 14 |
At that time one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the High Priests
| وَقَالَ: «كَمْ تُعْطُونَنِي لأُسَلِّمَهُ إِلَيْكُمْ؟» فَوَزَنُوا لَهُ ثَلاثِينَ قِطْعَةً مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ. | ١٥ 15 |
and said, "What are you willing to give me if I betray him to you?" So they weighed out to him thirty shekels,
| وَمِنْ ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ، أَخَذَ يَهُوذَا يَتَرَقَّبُ الْفُرْصَةَ لِتَسْلِيمِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
and from that moment he was on the look out for an opportunity to betray Him.
| 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 Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus with the question, "Where shall we make preparations for you to eat the Passover?"
| أَجَابَهُمْ: «اُدْخُلُوا الْمَدِينَةَ، وَاذْهَبُوا إِلَى فُلانٍ وَقُولُوا لَهُ: الْمُعَلِّمُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ سَاعَتِي قَدِ اقْتَرَبَتْ، وَعِنْدَكَ سَأَعْمَلُ الْفِصْحَ مَعَ تَلامِيذِي». | ١٨ 18 |
"Go into the city," He replied, "to a certain man, and tell him, 'The Teacher says, My time is close at hand. It is at your house that I shall keep the Passover with my disciples.'"
| فَفَعَلَ التَّلامِيذُ مَا أَمَرَهُمْ بِهِ يَسُوعُ، وَجَهَّزُوا الْفِصْحَ هُنَاكَ. | ١٩ 19 |
The disciples did as Jesus directed them, and got the Passover ready.
| وَعِنْدَ الْمَسَاءِ اتَّكَأَ مَعَ الاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
When evening came, He was at table with the twelve disciples,
| وَبَيْنَمَا كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ، قَالَ: «الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ وَاحِداً مِنْكُمْ سَيُسَلِّمُنِي». | ٢١ 21 |
and the meal was proceeding, when Jesus said, "In solemn truth I tell you that one of you will betray me."
| فَاسْتَوْلَى عَلَيْهِمِ الْحُزْنُ الشَّدِيدُ، وَأَخَذَ كُلٌّ مِنْهُمْ يَسْأَلُهُ: «هَلْ أَنَا يَا رَبُّ؟» | ٢٢ 22 |
Intensely grieved they began one after another to ask Him, "Can it be I, Master?"
| فَأَجَابَ: «الَّذِي يَغْمِسُ يَدَهُ مَعِي فِي الصَّحْفَةِ هُوَ الَّذِي يُسَلِّمُنِي. | ٢٣ 23 |
"The one who has dipped his fingers in the bowl with me," He answered, "is the man who will betray me.
| 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 is indeed going as is written concerning Him; but alas for that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It had been a happy thing for that man if he had never been born."
| فَسَأَلَهُ يَهُوذَا مُسَلِّمُهُ: «هَلْ أَنَا هُوَ يَا مُعَلِّمُ؟» أَجَابَهُ: «أَنْتَ قُلْتَ!» | ٢٥ 25 |
Then Judas, the disciple who was betraying Him, asked, "Can it be I, Rabbi?" "It is you," He replied.
| وَبَيْنَمَا كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ، أَخَذَ يَسُوعُ رَغِيفاً، وَبَارَكَ، وَكَسَّرَ وَأَعْطَى التَّلامِيذَ وَقَالَ: «خُذُوا، كُلُوا: هَذَا هُوَ جَسَدِي!» | ٢٦ 26 |
During the meal Jesus took a Passover biscuit, blessed it and broke it. He then gave it to the disciples, saying, "Take this and eat it: it is my body."
| ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الْكَأْسَ، وَشَكَرَ، وَأَعْطَاهُمْ قَائِلاً: «اشْرَبُوا مِنْهَا كُلُّكُمْ. | ٢٧ 27 |
And He took the cup and gave thanks, and gave it to them saying, "Drink from it, all of you;
| فَإِنَّ هَذَا هُوَ دَمِي الَّذِي لِلْعَهْدِ الْجَدِيدِ وَالَّذِي يُسْفَكُ مِنْ أَجْلِ كَثِيرِينَ لِمَغْفِرَةِ الْخَطَايَا. | ٢٨ 28 |
for this is my blood which is to be poured out for many for the remission of sins--the blood which ratifies the Covenant.
| 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 |
I tell you that I will never again take the produce of the vine till that day when I shall drink the new wine with you in my Father's Kingdom."
| ثُمَّ رَتَّلُوا، وَانْطَلَقُوا خَارِجاً إِلَى جَبَلِ الزَّيْتُونِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
So they sang the hymn and went out to the Mount of Olives.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ قَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ سَتَشُكُّونَ فِيَّ كُلُّكُمْ. لأَنَّهُ قَدْ كُتِبَ: سَأَضْرِبُ الرَّاعِيَ، فَتَتَشَتَّتُ خِرَافُ الْقَطِيعِ. | ٣١ 31 |
Then said Jesus, "This night all of you will stumble and fail in your fidelity to me; for it is written, 'I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered in all directions.'
| وَلَكِنْ بَعْدَ قِيَامَتِي أَسْبِقُكُمْ إِلَى الْجَلِيلِ». | ٣٢ 32 |
But after I have risen to life again I will go before you into Galilee."
| فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ بُطْرُسُ قَائِلاً: «وَلَوْ شَكَّ فِيكَ الْجَمِيعُ، فَأَنَا لَنْ أَشُكَّ!» | ٣٣ 33 |
"All may stumble and fail," said Peter, "but I never will."
| أَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكَ: إِنَّكَ فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ، قَبْلَ أَنْ يَصِيحَ الدِّيكُ، تَكُونُ قَدْ أَنْكَرْتَنِي ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ!» | ٣٤ 34 |
"In solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that this very night, before the cock crows, you will three times disown me."
| فَقَالَ بُطْرُسُ: «وَلَوْ كَانَ عَلَيَّ أَنْ أَمُوتَ مَعَكَ، لَا أُنْكِرُك أَبَداً!» وَقَالَ التَّلامِيذُ كُلُّهُمْ مِثْلَ هَذَا الْقَوْلِ. | ٣٥ 35 |
"Even if I must die with you," declared Peter, "I will never disown you." In like manner protested all the disciples.
| ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ يَسُوعُ وَتَلامِيذُهُ إِلَى بُسْتَانٍ يُدْعَى جَثْسَيْمَانِي، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اجْلِسُوا هُنَا حَتَّى أَذْهَبَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ وَأُصَلِّيَ». | ٣٦ 36 |
Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane. And He said to the disciples, "Sit down here, whilst I go yonder and there pray."
| وَقَدْ أَخَذَ مَعَهُ بُطْرُسَ وَابْنَيْ زَبَدِي وَبَدَأَ يَشْعُرُ بِالْحُزْنِ وَالْكَآبَةِ. | ٣٧ 37 |
And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zabdi. Then He began to be full of anguish and distress,
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «نَفْسِي حَزِينَةٌ جِدّاً حَتَّى الْمَوْتِ! ابْقَوْا هُنَا وَاسْهَرُوا مَعِي!» | ٣٨ 38 |
and He said to them, "My soul is crushed with anguish to the very point of death; wait here, and keep awake 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 |
Going forward a short distance He fell on His face and prayed. "My Father," He said, "if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as Thou willest."
| وَرَجَعَ إِلَى التَّلامِيذِ فَوَجَدَهُمْ نَائِمِينَ، فَقَالَ لِبُطْرُسَ: «أَهَكَذَا لَمْ تَقْدِرُوا أَنْ تَسْهَرُوا مَعِي سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً؟ | ٤٠ 40 |
Then He came to the disciples and found them asleep, and He said to Peter, "Alas, none of you could keep awake with me for even a single hour!
| اسْهَرُوا وَصَلُّوا لِكَيْ لَا تَدْخُلُوا فِي تَجْرِبَةٍ. إِنَّ الرُّوحَ نَشِيطٌ؛ أَمَّا الْجَسَدُ فَضَعِيفٌ». | ٤١ 41 |
Keep awake, and pray that you may not enter into temptation: the spirit is right willing, but the body is frail."
| وَذَهَبَ ثَانِيَةً يُصَلِّي، فَقَالَ: «يَا أَبِي، إِنْ كَانَ لَا يُمْكِنُ أَنْ تَعْبُرَ عَنِّي هَذِهِ الْكَأْسُ إِلّا بِأَنْ أَشْرَبَهَا، فَلْتَكُنْ مَشِيئَتُك!» | ٤٢ 42 |
Again a second time He went away and prayed, saying, "My Father, if it is impossible for this cup to pass without my drinking it, Thy will be done."
| وَرَجَعَ إِلَى التَّلامِيذِ، فَوَجَدَهُمْ نَائِمِينَ أَيْضاً لأَنَّ النُّعَاسَ أَثْقَلَ أَعْيُنَهُمْ. | ٤٣ 43 |
He came and again found them asleep, for they were very tired.
| فَتَرَكَهُمْ، وَعَادَ يُصَلِّي مَرَّةً ثَالِثَةً، وَرَدَّدَ الْكَلامَ نَفْسَهُ. | ٤٤ 44 |
So He left them, and went away once more and prayed a third time, again using the same words.
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى تَلامِيذِهِ وَقَالَ: «نَامُوا الآنَ وَاسْتَرِيحُوا! حَانَتِ السَّاعَةُ، وَسَوْفَ يُسَلَّمُ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ إِلَى أَيْدِي الْخَاطِئِينَ. | ٤٥ 45 |
Then He came to the disciples and said, "Sleep on and rest. See, the moment is close at hand when the Son of Man is to be betrayed into the hands of sinful men.
| قُومُوا لِنَذْهَبَ! هَا قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ الَّذِي يُسَلِّمُنِي». | ٤٦ 46 |
Rouse yourselves. Let us be going. My betrayer is close at hand."
| وَفِيمَا هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ، إِذَا يَهُوذَا، أَحَدُ الاِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ، قَدْ وَصَلَ وَمَعَهُ جَمْعٌ عَظِيمٌ يَحْمِلُونَ السُّيُوفَ وَالْعِصِيَّ، وَقَدْ أَرْسَلَهُمْ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَشُيُوخُ الشَّعْبِ. | ٤٧ 47 |
He had scarcely finished speaking when Judas came--one of the Twelve--accompanied by a great crowd of men armed with swords and bludgeons, sent by the High Priests and Elders of the People.
| وَكَانَ مُسَلِّمُهُ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُمْ عَلامَةً قَائِلاً: «الَّذِي أُقَبِّلُهُ هُوَ هُوَ؛ فَاقْبِضُوا عَلَيْهِ!» | ٤٨ 48 |
Now the betrayer had agreed upon a sign with them, to direct them. He had said, "The one whom I kiss is the man: lay hold of him."
| فَتَقَدَّمَ فِي الْحَالِ إِلَى يَسُوعَ وَقَالَ: «سَلامٌ يَا سَيِّدِي!» وَقَبَّلَهُ. | ٤٩ 49 |
So he went straight to Jesus and said, "Peace to you, Rabbi!" And he kissed Him eagerly.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «يَا صَاحِبِي، لِمَاذَا أَنْتَ هُنَا؟» فَتَقَدَّمَ الْجَمْعُ وَأَلْقَوْا الْقَبْضَ عَلَى يَسُوعَ. | ٥٠ 50 |
"Friend," said Jesus, "carry out your intention." Then they came and laid their hands on Jesus and seized Him firmly.
| وَإذَا وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَ يَسُوعَ قَدْ مَدَّ يَدَهُ وَاسْتَلَّ سَيْفَهُ، وَضَرَبَ عَبْدَ رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ، فَقَطَعَ أُذُنَهُ. | ٥١ 51 |
But one of those with Jesus drew his sword and 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 |
"Put back your sword again," said Jesus, "for all who draw the sword shall perish by the sword.
| أَمْ تَظُنُّ أَنِّي لَا أَقْدِرُ الآنَ أَنْ أَطْلُبَ إِلَى أَبِي فَيُرْسِلَ لِي أَكْثَرَ مِنِ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ جَيْشاً مِنَ الْمَلائِكَةِ؟ | ٥٣ 53 |
Or do you suppose I cannot entreat my Father and He would instantly send to my help more than twelve legions of angels?
| وَلَكِنْ كَيْفَ يَتِمُّ الْكِتَابُ حَيْثُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ مَا يَحْدُثُ الآنَ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَحْدُثَ؟» | ٥٤ 54 |
In that case how are the Scriptures to be fulfilled which declare that thus it must be?"
| 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 said Jesus to the crowds, "Have you come out as if to fight with a robber, with swords and bludgeons to apprehend me? Day after day I have been sitting teaching in the Temple, and you did not arrest me.
| وَلَكِنْ، قَدْ حَدَثَ هَذَا كُلُّهُ لِتَتِمَّ كِتَابَاتُ الأَنْبِيَاءِ!» عِنْدَئِذٍ تَرَكَهُ التَّلامِيذُ كُلُّهُمْ وَهَرَبُوا! | ٥٦ 56 |
But all this has taken place in order that the writings of the Prophets may be fulfilled." At this point the disciples all left Him and fled.
| وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ قَبَضُوا عَلَى يَسُوعَ، فَسَاقُوهُ إِلَى قَيَافَا رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ، وَقَدِ اجْتَمَعَ عِنْدَهُ الْكَتَبَةُ وَالشُّيُوخُ. | ٥٧ 57 |
But the officers who had laid hold of Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas the High Priest, at whose house the Scribes and the Elders had assembled.
| وَتَبِعَهُ بُطْرُسُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ إِلَى دَارِ رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ، ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ إِلَى الدَّاخِلِ، وَجَلَسَ بَيْنَ الْحُرَّاسِ لِيَرَى النِّهَايَةَ. | ٥٨ 58 |
And Peter kept following Him at a distance, till he came even to the court of the High Priest's palace, where he entered and sat down among the officers to see the issue.
| وَانْعَقَدَ الْمَجْلِسُ مِنْ رُؤَسَاءِ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالشُّيُوخِ كُلِّهِمْ، وَبَحَثُوا عَنْ شَهَادَةِ زُورٍ عَلَى يَسُوعَ، لِيَحْكُمُوا عَلَيْهِ بِالْمَوْتِ، | ٥٩ 59 |
Meanwhile the High Priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus in order to put Him to death;
| وَلَكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَجِدُوا، مَعَ أَنَّهُ حَضَرَ شُهُودُ زُورٍ كَثِيرُونَ. أَخِيراً تَقَدَّمَ اثْنَانِ | ٦٠ 60 |
but they could find none, although many false witnesses came forward. At length there came two
| وَقَالا: «هَذَا قَالَ: إِنِّي أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَهْدِمَ هَيْكَلَ اللهِ وَأَبْنِيَهُ فِي ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ». | ٦١ 61 |
who testified, "This man said, 'I am able to pull down the Sanctuary of God and three days afterwards to build a new one.'"
| فَوَقَفَ رَئِيسُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَسَأَلَهُ: «أَمَا تُجِيبُ بِشَيْءٍ عَلَى مَا يَشْهَدُ بِهِ هَذَانِ عَلَيْكَ؟» | ٦٢ 62 |
Then the High Priest stood up and asked Him, "Have you no answer to make? What is it these men are saying in evidence against you?"
| وَلَكِنَّ يَسُوعَ ظَلَّ صَامِتاً. فَعَادَ رَئِيسُ الْكَهَنَةِ يَسْأَلُهُ: قَالَ: «أَسْتَحْلِفُكَ بِاللهِ الْحَيِّ أَنْ تَقُولَ لَنَا: هَلْ أَنْتَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ اللهِ؟» | ٦٣ 63 |
Jesus however remained silent. Again the High Priest addressed Him. "In the name of the ever-living God," he said, "I now put you on your oath. Tell us whether you are the Christ, 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 |
"I am He," replied Jesus. "But I tell you that, later on, you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Omnipotence, and coming on the clouds of the sky."
| 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 robes and exclaimed, "Impious language! What further need have we of witnesses! See, you have now heard the impiety.
| فَمَا رَأْيُكُمْ؟» أَجَابُوا: «يَسْتَحِقُّ عُقُوبَةَ الْمَوْتِ!» | ٦٦ 66 |
What is your verdict?" "He deserves to die," they replied.
| فَبَصَقُوا فِي وَجْهِهِ، وَضَرَبُوهُ، وَلَطَمَهُ بَعْضُهُمْ | ٦٧ 67 |
Then they spat in His face, and struck Him--some with the fist, some with the open hand--
| قَائِلِينَ: «تَنَبَّأْ لَنَا، أَيُّهَا الْمَسِيحُ، مَنْ ضَرَبَك!» | ٦٨ 68 |
while they taunted Him, saying, "Christ, prove yourself a Prophet by telling us who it was that struck you."
| فِي تِلْكَ الأَثْنَاءِ كَانَ بُطْرُسُ جَالِساً فِي الدَّارِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، فَتَقَدَّمَتْ إِلَيْهِ خَادِمَةٌ وَقَالَتْ: «وَأَنْتَ كُنْتَ مَعَ يَسُوعَ الْجَلِيلِيِّ». | ٦٩ 69 |
Peter meanwhile was sitting outside in the court of the palace, when one of the maidservants came over to him and said, "You too were with Jesus the Galilaean."
| فَأَنْكَرَ بُطْرُسُ أَمَامَ الْجَمِيعِ وَقَالَ: «لا أَدْرِي مَا تَقُولِينَ!» | ٧٠ 70 |
He denied it before them all, saying, "I do not know what you mean."
| ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى مَدْخَلِ الدَّارِ، فَعَرَفَتْهُ خَادِمَةٌ أُخْرَى، فَقَالَتْ لِلْحَاضِرِينَ هُنَاكَ: «وَهَذَا كَانَ مَعَ يَسُوعَ النَّاصِرِيِّ!» | ٧١ 71 |
Soon afterwards he went out and stood in the gateway, when another girl saw him, and said, addressing the people there, "This man was with Jesus the Nazarene."
| فَأَنْكَرَ بُطْرُسُ مَرَّةً ثَانِيَةً وَأَقْسَمَ: «إِنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ ذلِكَ الرَّجُلَ!» | ٧٢ 72 |
Again he denied it with an oath. "I do not know the man," he said.
| وَبَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ تَقَدَّمَ الْوَاقِفُونَ هُنَاكَ إِلَى بُطْرُسَ وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «بِالْحَقِّ إِنَّكَ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ، فَإِنَّ لَهْجَتَكَ تَدُلُّ عَلَيْكَ!» | ٧٣ 73 |
A short time afterwards the people standing there came and said to Peter, "Certainly you too are one of them, for your brogue shows it."
| فَابْتَدَأَ بُطْرُسُ يَلْعَنُ وَيَحْلِفُ، قَائِلاً: «إِنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلَ!» وَفِي الْحَالِ صَاحَ الدِّيكُ، | ٧٤ 74 |
Then with curses and oaths he declared, "I do not know the man." Immediately a 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 |
and Peter recollected the words of Jesus, how He had said, "Before the cock crows you will three times disown me." And he went out and wept aloud, bitterly.
