Colossians 3

1 If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

١ فَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ قَدْ قُمْتُمْ مَعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فَٱطْلُبُوا مَا فَوْقُ، حَيْثُ ٱلْمَسِيحُ جَالِسٌ عَنْ يَمِينِ ٱللهِ.

2 Keep your mind on the higher things, not on the things of earth.

٢ ٱهْتَمُّوا بِمَا فَوْقُ لَا بِمَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ،

3 For your life on earth is done, and you have a secret life with Christ in God.

٣ لِأَنَّكُمْ قَدْ مُتُّمْ وَحَيَاتُكُمْ مُسْتَتِرَةٌ مَعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فِي ٱللهِ.

4 At the coming of Christ who is our life, you will be seen with him in glory.

٤ مَتَى أُظْهِرَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ حَيَاتُنَا، فَحِينَئِذٍ تُظْهَرُونَ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا مَعَهُ فِي ٱلْمَجْدِ.

5 Then put to death your bodies which are of the earth; wrong use of the flesh, unclean things, passion, evil desires and envy, which is the worship of strange gods;

٥ فَأَمِيتُوا أَعْضَاءَكُمُ ٱلَّتِي عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ: ٱلزِّنَا، ٱلنَّجَاسَةَ، ٱلْهَوَى، ٱلشَّهْوَةَ ٱلرَّدِيَّةَ، ٱلطَّمَعَ -ٱلَّذِي هُوَ عِبَادَةُ ٱلْأَوْثَانِ-

6 Because of which the wrath of God comes on those who go against his orders;

٦ ٱلْأُمُورَ ٱلَّتِي مِنْ أَجْلِهَا يَأْتِي غَضَبُ ٱللهِ عَلَى أَبْنَاءِ ٱلْمَعْصِيَةِ،

7 Among whom you were living in the past, when you did such things.

٧ ٱلَّذِينَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا سَلَكْتُمْ قَبْلًا، حِينَ كُنْتُمْ تَعِيشُونَ فِيهَا.

8 But now it is right for you to put away all these things; wrath, passion, bad feeling, curses, unclean talk;

٨ وَأَمَّا ٱلْآنَ فَٱطْرَحُوا عَنْكُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا ٱلْكُلَّ: ٱلْغَضَبَ، ٱلسَّخَطَ، ٱلْخُبْثَ، ٱلتَّجْدِيفَ، ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلْقَبِيحَ مِنْ أَفْوَاهِكُمْ.

9 Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings,

٩ لَا تَكْذِبُوا بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ، إِذْ خَلَعْتُمُ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ ٱلْعَتِيقَ مَعَ أَعْمَالِهِ،

10 And have put on the new man, which has become new in knowledge after the image of his maker;

١٠ وَلَبِسْتُمُ ٱلْجَدِيدَ ٱلَّذِي يَتَجَدَّدُ لِلْمَعْرِفَةِ حَسَبَ صُورَةِ خَالِقِهِ،

11 Where there is no Greek or Jew, no one with circumcision or without circumcision, no division between nations, no servant or free man: but Christ is all and in all.

١١ حَيْثُ لَيْسَ يُونَانِيٌّ وَيَهُودِيٌّ، خِتَانٌ وَغُرْلَةٌ، بَرْبَرِيٌّ سِكِّيثِيٌّ، عَبْدٌ حُرٌّ، بَلِ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱلْكُلُّ وَفِي ٱلْكُلِّ.

12 As saints of God, then, holy and dearly loved, let your behaviour be marked by pity and mercy, kind feeling, a low opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, and a power of undergoing all things;

١٢ فَٱلْبَسُوا كَمُخْتَارِي ٱللهِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ ٱلْمَحْبُوبِينَ أَحْشَاءَ رَأْفَاتٍ، وَلُطْفًا، وَتَوَاضُعًا، وَوَدَاعَةً، وَطُولَ أَنَاةٍ،

13 Being gentle to one another and having forgiveness for one another, if anyone has done wrong to his brother, even as the Lord had forgiveness for you:

١٣ مُحْتَمِلِينَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا، وَمُسَامِحِينَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا. إِنْ كَانَ لِأَحَدٍ عَلَى أَحَدٍ شَكْوَى، كَمَا غَفَرَ لَكُمُ ٱلْمَسِيحُ هَكَذَا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا.

14 And more than all, have love; the only way in which you may be completely joined together.

١٤ وَعَلَى جَمِيعِ هَذِهِ ٱلْبَسُوا ٱلْمَحَبَّةَ ٱلَّتِي هِيَ رِبَاطُ ٱلْكَمَالِ.

15 And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times.

١٥ وَلْيَمْلِكْ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ سَلَامُ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي إِلَيْهِ دُعِيتُمْ فِي جَسَدٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَكُونُوا شَاكِرِينَ.

16 Let the word of Christ be in you in all wealth of wisdom; teaching and helping one another with songs of praise and holy words, making melody to God with grace in your hearts.

١٦ لِتَسْكُنْ فِيكُمْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ بِغِنًى، وَأَنْتُمْ بِكُلِّ حِكْمَةٍ مُعَلِّمُونَ وَمُنْذِرُونَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا، بِمَزَامِيرَ وَتَسَابِيحَ وَأَغَانِيَّ رُوحِيَّةٍ، بِنِعْمَةٍ، مُتَرَنِّمِينَ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ لِلرَّبِّ.

17 And whatever you do, in word or in act, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving praise to God the Father through him.

١٧ وَكُلُّ مَا عَمِلْتُمْ بِقَوْلٍ أَوْ فِعْلٍ، فَٱعْمَلُوا ٱلْكُلَّ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ، شَاكِرِينَ ٱللهَ وَٱلْآبَ بِهِ.

18 Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as is right in the Lord.

١٨ أَيَّتُهَا ٱلنِّسَاءُ، ٱخْضَعْنَ لِرِجَالِكُنَّ كَمَا يَلِيقُ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ.

19 Husbands, have love for your wives, and be not bitter against them.

١٩ أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ، أَحِبُّوا نِسَاءَكُمْ، وَلَا تَكُونُوا قُسَاةً عَلَيْهِنَّ.

20 Children, do the orders of your fathers and mothers in all things, for this is pleasing to the Lord.

٢٠ أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَوْلَادُ، أَطِيعُوا وَالِدِيكُمْ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ لِأَنَّ هَذَا مَرْضِيٌّ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ.

21 Fathers, do not be hard on your children, so that their spirit may not be broken.

٢١ أَيُّهَا ٱلْآبَاءُ، لَا تُغِيظُوا أَوْلَادَكُمْ لِئَلَّا يَفْشَلُوا.

22 Servants, in all things do the orders of your natural masters; not only when their eyes are on you, as pleasers of men, but with all your heart, fearing the Lord:

٢٢ أَيُّهَا ٱلْعَبِيدُ، أَطِيعُوا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ سَادَتَكُمْ حَسَبَ ٱلْجَسَدِ، لَا بِخِدْمَةِ ٱلْعَيْنِ كَمَنْ يُرْضِي ٱلنَّاسَ، بَلْ بِبَسَاطَةِ ٱلْقَلْبِ، خَائِفِينَ ٱلرَّبَّ.

23 Whatever you do, do it readily, as to the Lord and not to men;

٢٣ وَكُلُّ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ، فَٱعْمَلُوا مِنَ ٱلْقَلْبِ، كَمَا لِلرَّبِّ لَيْسَ لِلنَّاسِ،

24 Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ.

٢٤ عَالِمِينَ أَنَّكُمْ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ سَتَأْخُذُونَ جَزَاءَ ٱلْمِيرَاثِ، لِأَنَّكُمْ تَخْدِمُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ.

25 For the wrongdoer will have punishment for the wrong he has done, without respect for any man's position.

٢٥ وَأَمَّا ٱلظَّالِمُ فَسَينَالُ مَا ظَلَمَ بِهِ، وَلَيْسَ مُحَابَاةٌ.
