< 2 Corinthians 6 >

1 Working together, we entreat also that you not receive the grace of God in vain,
فَبِمَا أَنَّنَا عَامِلُونَ مَعاً عِنْدَ اللهِ، نَطْلُبُ أَلَّا يَكُونَ قُبُولُكُمْ لِنِعْمَةِ اللهِ عَبَثاً.١
2 for he says, "At an acceptable time I listened to you, and in a day of salvation I helped you." Look, now is the "acceptable time." Look, now is the "day of salvation."
فَإِنَّهُ يَقُولُ: «فِي وَقْتِ الْقَبُولِ اسْتَجَبْتُ لَكَ، وَفِي يَوْمِ الْخَلاصِ أَعَنْتُكَ». وَالآنَ هُوَ وَقْتُ الْقَبُولِ. الْيَوْمُ يَوْمُ الْخَلاصِ!٢
3 We give no occasion of stumbling in anything, that our service may not be blamed,
وَلَسْنَا نَتَصَرَّفُ أَيَّ تَصَرُّفٍ يَكُونُ عَثْرَةً لأَحَدٍ، حَتَّى لَا يَلْحَقَ الْخِدْمَةَ أَيُّ لَوْمٍ.٣
4 but in everything commending ourselves, as servants of God, in great endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses,
وَإِنَّمَا نَتَصَرَّفُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ بِمَا يُبَيِّنُ أَنَّنَا فِعْلاً خُدَّامُ اللهِ: فِي تَحَمُّلِ الْكَثِيرِ؛ فِي الشَّدَائِدِ وَالْحَاجَاتِ وَالضِّيقَاتِ وَالْجَلْدَاتِ٤
5 in beatings, in imprisonments, in riots, in labors, in watchings, in fastings;
وَالسُّجُونِ وَالاضْطِرَابَاتِ وَالأَتْعَابِ وَالسَّهَرِ وَالصَّوْمِ؛٥
6 in pureness, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Rukha d'Qudsha, in sincere love,
فِي الطَّهَارَةِ وَالْمَعْرِفَةِ وَطُولِ الْبَالِ وَاللُّطْفِ؛ فِي الرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ وَالْمَحَبَّةِ الْخَالِصَةِ مِنَ الرِّيَاءِ؛٦
7 in the word of truth, in the power of God; by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
فِي كَلِمَةِ الْحَقِّ وَقُدْرَةِ اللهِ؛ بِأَسْلِحَةِ الْبِرِّ فِي الْهُجُومِ وَالدِّفَاعِ؛٧
8 by glory and dishonor, by evil report and good report; as deceivers, and yet true;
بِالْكَرَامَةِ وَالْهَوَانِ؛ بِالصِّيتِ السَّيِّئِ وَالصِّيتِ الْحَسَنِ. نُعَامَلُ كَمُضَلِّلِينَ وَنَحْنُ صَادِقُونَ،٨
9 as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and look, we live; as punished, and not killed;
كَمَجْهُولِينَ وَنَحْنُ مَعْرُوفُونَ، كَمَائِتِينَ وَهَا نَحْنُ نَحْيَا، كَمُعَاقَبِينَ وَلا نُقْتَلُ،٩
10 as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
كَمَحْزُونِينَ وَنَحْنُ دَائِماً فَرِحُونَ، كَفُقَرَاءَ وَنَحْنُ نُغْنِي كَثِيرِينَ، كَمَنْ لَا شَيْءَ عِنْدَهُمْ وَنَحْنُ نَمْلِكُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ.١٠
11 Our mouth is open to you, Corinthians. Our heart is enlarged.
إِنَّنَا كَلَّمْنَاكُمْ، يَا أَهْلَ كُورِنْثُوسَ، بِصَرَاحَةِ فَمٍ وَرَحَابَةِ قَلْبٍ.١١
12 You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted by your own affections.
إِنَّكُمْ مُتَضَايِقُونَ، لَا بِسَبَبِنَا بَلْ بِسَبَبِ ضِيقِ عَوَاطِفِكُمْ١٢
13 Now in return, I speak as to my children, you also be open wide.
وَلَكِنْ، عَلَى سَبِيلِ الْمُعَامَلَةِ بِالْمِثْلِ، وَأُخَاطِبُكُمْ كَأَوْلادٍ، لِتَكُنْ قُلُوبُكُمْ أَيْضاً رَحْبَةً!١٣
14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?
لَا تَدْخُلُوا مَعَ غَيْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ تَحْتَ نِيرٍ وَاحِدٍ. فَأَيُّ ارْتِبَاطٍ بَيْنَ الْبِرِّ وَالإِثْمِ؟ وَأَيَّةُ شَرِكَةٍ بَيْنَ النُّورِ وَالظَّلامِ؟١٤
15 What agreement has Meshikha with Belial? Or what portion has a believer with an unbeliever?
وَأَيُّ تَحَالُفٍ لِلْمَسِيحِ مَعَ إِبْلِيسَ؟ وَأَيُّ نَصِيبٍ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ مَعَ غَيْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِ؟١٥
16 What agreement has a temple of God with idols? For we are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, "I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they will be my people."
وَأَيُّ وِفَاقٍ لِهَيْكَلِ اللهِ مَعَ الأَصْنَامِ؟ فَإِنَّنَا نَحْنُ هَيْكَلُ اللهِ الْحَيِّ، وَفْقاً لِمَا قَالَهُ اللهُ: «سَأَسْكُنُ فِي وَسَطِهِمْ، وَأَسِيرُ بَيْنَهُمْ، وَأَكُونُ إِلهَهُمْ وَهُمْ يَكُونُونَ شَعْباً لِي».١٦
17 Therefore, "'Go out from their midst, and be separate,' says the Lord, 'and touch no unclean thing,' and I will receive you.
لِذلِكَ «اخْرُجُوا مِنْ وَسْطِهِمْ، وَكُونُوا مُنْفَصِلِينَ»، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، «وَلا تَلْمَسُوا مَا هُوَ نَجِسٌ،١٧
18 "And I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters," says the Lord Almighty.
فَأَقْبَلَكُمْ»، وَ«أَكُونَ لَكُمْ أَباً، وَتَكُونُوا لِي بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ»، هَذَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَادِرُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ.١٨
