< Ezekiel 20 >

1 It happened in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of the LORD, and sat before me.
وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الْعَاشِرِ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ الْخَامِسِ (أَيْ تَمُّوزَ – يُولْيُو) مِنَ السَّنَةِ السَّابِعَةِ أَقْبَلَ إِلَيَّ بَعْضُ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَسْتَشِيروا الرَّبَّ، فَجَلَسُوا أَمَامِي.١
2 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
فَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:٢
3 "Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel, and tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: "Is it to inquire of me that you have come? As I live, says the LORD, I will not be inquired of by you."'
«يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لِشُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَلْ جِئْتُمْ لِتَسْتَشِيرُونِي؟ حَيٌّ أَنَا، لَنْ أُتِيحَ لَكُمْ طَلَبَ الْمَشُورَةِ مِنِّي.٣
4 Will you judge them, son of man, will you judge them? Cause them to know the abominations of their fathers;
أَتَدِينُهُمْ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ؟ أَتُحَاكِمُهُمْ؟ أَطْلِعْهُمْ عَلَى رَجَاسَاتِ آبَائِهِمْ،٤
5 and tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: "In the day when I chose Israel, and swore to the offspring of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I swore to them, saying, 'I am the LORD your God';
وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي اصْطَفَيْتُ فِيهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَحَلَفْتُ لِذُرِّيَّةِ بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ وَأَعْلَنْتُ لَهُمْ عَنْ نَفْسِي فِي دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، حَلَفْتُ لَهُمْ قَائِلاً: أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ.٥
6 in that day I swore to them, to bring them forth out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had searched out for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands.
فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَقْسَمْتُ لَهُمْ أَنْ أُخْرِجَهُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي اسْتَكْشَفْتُهَا لَهُمْ، الَّتِي تَفِيضُ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً، فَخْرِ كُلِّ الأَرَاضِي،٦
7 I said to them, 'Cast away every man the abominations of his eyes, and do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am the LORD your God.'
وَقُلْتُ لَهُمْ: لِيَنْبِذْ كُلٌّ مِنْكُمُ الأَرْجَاسَ الَّتِي تُنَجِّسُ عَيْنَيْهِ، وَلا تَتَدَنَّسُوا بِأَصْنَامِ مِصْرَ؛ أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ.٧
8 But they rebelled against me, and would not listen to me; they each didn't throw away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I said I would pour out my wrath on them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
وَلَكِنَّهُمْ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَيَّ وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِي، وَلَمْ يَتْرُكُوا الأَرْجَاسَ الَّتِي تُنَجِّسُ عُيُونَهُمْ، وَلَمْ يَهْجُرُوا أَصْنَامَ مِصْرَ. فَقُلْتُ: سَأَسْكُبُ عَلَيْهِمْ غَضَبِي وَأَنْفُثُ فِيهِمْ كَامِلَ سَخَطِي فِي وَسَطِ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ.٨
9 But I worked for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, among which they were, in whose sight I made myself known to them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
غَيْرَ أَنِّي تَصَرَّفْتُ عَلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِي، لِئَلّا يَتَنَجَّسَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي يَسْكُنُ شَعْبُ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَيْنَهَا. إِذْ أَعْلَنْتُ نَفْسِي أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ حِينَ أَخْرَجْتُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ.٩
10 "'"So I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.
وَهَكَذَا أَخْرَجْتُهُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، وَأَتَيْتُ بِهِمْ إِلَى الْبَرِّيَّةِ،١٠
11 I gave them my statutes, and showed them my ordinances, which if a man does, he shall live in them.
وَأَعْطَيْتُهُمْ فَرَائِضِي، وَأَعْلَنْتُ لَهُمْ أَحْكَامِي الَّتِي إِنْ مَارَسَهَا إِنْسَانٌ يَحْيَا بِها،١١
12 Moreover also I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD who sanctifies them.
وَأَعْطَيْتُهُمْ كَذَلِكَ سُبُوتِي لِتَكُونَ عَلامَةً بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ لِيُدْرِكُوا أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أُقَدِّسُهُمْ.١٢
13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they didn't walk in my statutes, and they rejected my ordinances, which if a man keep, he shall live in them; and my Sabbaths they greatly profaned. Then I said I would pour out my wrath on them in the wilderness, to consume them.
لَكِنَّ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَيَّ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ وَلَمْ يُمَارِسُوا فَرَائِضِي، وَتَنَكَّرُوا لأَحْكَامِي الَّتِي إِنْ عَمِلَ بِها إِنْسَانٌ يَحْيَا، وَنَجَّسُوا أَيَّامَ سُبُوتِي كَثِيراً. فَقُلْتُ: سَأَسْكُبُ غَضَبِي عَلَيْهِمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ لأُمِيتَهُمْ.١٣
14 But I worked for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them out.
لَكِنَّنِي تَصَرَّفْتُ عَلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِي، لِئَلّا يَتَنَجَّسَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي أَخْرَجْتُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى مَشْهَدٍ مِنْهَا.١٤
15 "'"Moreover also I swore to them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given to them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the most beautiful of all lands;
وَحَلَفْتُ لَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ بِأَنِّي لَنْ أَقُودَهُمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتُهَا لَهُمْ، الَّتِي تَفِيضُ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً، فَخْرِ الأَرَاضِي كُلِّهَا،١٥
16 because they rejected my ordinances, and didn't walk in my statutes, and profaned my Sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
لأَنَّهُمْ تَنَكَّرُوا لأَحْكَامِي وَلَمْ يُمَارِسُوا فَرَائِضِي، بَلْ دَنَّسُوا أَيَّامَ سُبُوتِي وَضَلَّ قَلْبُهُمْ وَرَاءَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ.١٦
17 Nevertheless my eye spared them, and I didn't destroy them, neither did I make a full end of them in the wilderness.
وَلَكِنْ عَيْنِي تَرَأَّفَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ أُهْلِكْهُمْ وَلَمْ أُفْنِهِمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ.١٧
18 "'"I said to their children in the wilderness, 'Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their ordinances, nor defile yourselves with their idols.
وَأَوْصَيْتُ أَبْنَاءَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ أَلّا يَسْلُكُوا فِي طُرُقِ آبَائِهِمْ وَلا يُمَارِسُوا أَعْمَالَهُمْ وَلا يَتَنَجَّسُوا بِأَصْنَامِهِمْ.١٨
19 I am the LORD your God: walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them;
أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ فَاسْلُكُوا فِي فَرَائِضِي وَاحْفَظُوا أَحْكَامِي وَاعْمَلُوا بِها.١٩
20 and make my Sabbaths holy; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that you may know that I am the LORD your God.'
وَقَدِّسُوا سُبُوتِي فَتَكُونَ عَلامَةً بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ٢٠
21 But the children rebelled against me; they didn't walk in my statutes, neither kept my ordinances to do them, which if a man do, he shall live in them; and they profaned my Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my wrath on them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.
فَتَمَرَّدَ الأَبْنَاءُ عَلَيَّ. لَمْ يَسْلُكُوا فِي فَرَائِضِي وَلَمْ يَحْفَظُوا أَحْكَامِي لِيَعْمَلُوهَا الَّتِي إِنْ عَمِلَهَا إِنْسَانٌ يَحْيَا بِها، وَنَجَّسُوا سُبُوتِي. فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي أَسْكُبُ غَضَبِي عَلَيْهِمْ لأُتِمَّ سَخَطِي عَلَيْهِمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ.٢١
22 Nevertheless I withdrew my hand, and worked for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them forth.
وَلَكِنِّي كَفَفْتُ يَدِي عَنْهُمْ وَتَصَرَّفْتُ عَلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِي، لِئَلّا يَتَنَجَّسَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي أَخْرَجْتُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى مَشْهَدٍ مِنْهَا.٢٢
23 Moreover I swore to them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the countries;
وَحَلَفْتُ لَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ أَنْ أُفَرِّقَهُمْ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ وَأُشَتِّتَهُمْ عَبْرَ الْبُلْدَانِ.٢٣
24 because they had not executed my ordinances, but had rejected my statutes, and had profaned my Sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols.
لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُطَبِّقُوا أَحْكَامِي بَلْ تَنَكَّرُوا لِفَرَائِضِي وَدَنَّسُوا أَيَّامَ سُبُوتِي وَتَعَلَّقَتْ عُيُونُهُمْ بِأَصْنَامِ آبَائِهِمْ.٢٤
25 Moreover also I gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances in which they should not live;
لِذَلِكَ أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ فَرَائِضَ غَيْرَ صَالِحَةٍ وَأَحْكَاماً لَا يَحْيَوْنَ بِها.٢٥
26 and I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through the fire all that opens the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am the LORD."'
وَجَعَلْتُهُمْ يَتَنَجَّسُونَ بِعَطَايَاهُمْ إِذْ أَجَازُوا فِي النَّارِ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ لأُبِيدَهُمْ، حَتَّى يُدْرِكُوا أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ.٢٦
27 "Therefore, son of man, speak to the house of Israel, and tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: "In this moreover have your fathers blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me.
لِهَذَا، يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لِشَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: بِهَذِهِ الأُمُورِ جَدَّفَ عَلَيَّ آبَاؤُكُمْ إِذْ خَانُونِي أَشَدَّ خِيَانَةٍ.٢٧
28 For when I had brought them into the land, which I swore to give to them, then they saw every high hill, and every thick tree, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering; there also they made their pleasant aroma, and they poured out there their drink offerings.
عِنْدَمَا جِئْتُ بِهِمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَقْسَمْتُ أَنْ أَهَبَهَا لَهُمْ، وَرَأَوْا كُلَّ أَكَمَةٍ مُرْتَفِعَةٍ وَكُلَّ شَجَرَةٍ وَارِفَةٍ، فَذَبَحُوا قَرَابِينَهُمْ هُنَاكَ وَقَرَّبُوا ذَبَائِحَهُمُ الْمُغِيظَةَ، وَأَصْعَدُوا تَقْدِمَاتٍ، رَوَائِحَ الرِّضَى وَسَكَبُوا سَكَائِبَ خَمْرِهِمْ،٢٨
29 Then I said to them, 'What does the high place where you go mean?' So its name is called Bamah to this day."'
فَسَأَلْتُهُمْ: مَا هَذِهِ الْمُرْتَفَعَةُ الَّتِي تَأْتُونَ إِلَيْهَا؟ فَدُعِيَتْ مَرْتَفَعَةً إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ.٢٩
30 "Therefore tell the house of Israel, 'Thus says the LORD: "Do you pollute yourselves in the way of your fathers? And do you play the prostitute after their abominations?
لِذَلِكَ قُلْ لِشَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَلْ دَنَّسْتُمْ أَنْفُسَكُمْ كَمَا فَعَلَ آبَاؤُكُمْ وَغَوَيْتُمْ وَرَاءَ أَصْنَامِكُمُ الرَّجْسَةِ؟٣٠
31 And when you offer your gifts, when you make your sons to pass through the fire, do you pollute yourselves with all your idols to this day? And shall I be inquired of by you, house of Israel? As I live, says the LORD, I will not be inquired of by you;
إِنَّكُمْ تَتَنَجَّسُونَ مَعَ كُلِّ أَصْنَامِكُمْ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ، حِينَ تُقَدِّمُونَ عَطَايَاكُمْ لِلأَوْثَانِ وَتُجِيزُونَ أَبْنَاءَكُمْ فِي النَّارِ. فَهَلْ بَعْدَ هَذَا تَأْتُونَ إِلَيَّ لِطَلَبِ مَشُورَتِي يَا شَعْبَ إسْرَائِيلَ؟ حَيٌّ أَنَا يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، لَنْ أُتِيحَ لَكُمْ طَلَبَ مَشُورَتِي.٣١
32 and that which comes into your mind shall not be at all, in that you say, 'We will be as the nations, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.'
إِذْ لَنْ يَتَحَقَّقَ مَا يَخْطُرُ بِبَالِكُمْ إِذْ تَقُولُونَ، لِنَكُنْ كَسَائِرِ قَبَائِلِ الأَرْضِ فَنَعْبُدَ الْخَشَبَ وَالْحَجَرَ.٣٢
33 As I live," says the LORD, "surely with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out, will I be king over you:
حَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، إِنِّي بِيَدٍ قَوِيَّةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ قَدِيَرةٍ وَغَضَبٍ مَصْبُوبٍ أَمْلِكُ عَلَيْكُمْ،٣٣
34 and I will bring you out from the peoples, and will gather you out of the countries in which you are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out;
وَأُخْرِجُكُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الشُّعُوبِ وَأَجْمَعُكُمْ مِنَ الْبُلْدَانِ الَّتِي تَشَتَّتُّمْ فِيهَا، بِيَدٍ قَويَّةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ قَدِيرَةٍ وَغَضَبٍ مَصْبُوبٍ،٣٤
35 and I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, and there will I enter into judgment with you face to face.
وَآتِي بِكُمْ إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ الأُمَمِ فَأُحَاكِمُكُمْ هُنَاكَ مُوَاجَهَةً،٣٥
36 Like as I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I enter into judgment with you," says the LORD.
وَكَمَا حَاكَمْتُ أَسْلافَكُمْ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، أُحَاكِمُكُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً.٣٦
37 "I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant;
وَأُحْصِيكُمْ، وَأُدْخِلُكُمْ فِي مِيثَاقِ الْعَهْدِ،٣٧
38 and I will purge out from among you the rebels, and those who disobey against me; I will bring them forth out of the land where they live, but they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and you shall know that I am the LORD."
وَأَعْزِلُ مِنْ بَيْنِكُمُ الْمُتَمَرِّدِينَ وَالْعُصَاةَ عَلَيَّ، وَأُخْرِجُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ غُرْبَتِهِمْ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَدْخُلُوا أَرْضَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَتُدْرِكُونَ آنَئِذٍ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ.٣٨
39 "'As for you, house of Israel, thus says the Lord GOD: "Go, serve everyone his idols, and hereafter also, if you will not listen to me; but my holy name you shall no more profane with your gifts, and with your idols.
أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ يَا شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَامْضُوا وَلْيَعْبُدْ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ أَصْنَامَهُ، وَلَكِنْ فِيمَا بَعْدُ، سَتَسْتَمِعُونَ حَتْماً لِي، وَلَنْ تُدَنِّسُوا اسْمِي الْقُدُّوسَ بَعْدُ بِعَطَايَاكُمْ وَأَوْثَانِكُمْ.٣٩
40 For in my holy mountain, in the mountain of the height of Israel," says the LORD, "there shall all the house of Israel, all of them, serve me in the land: there will I accept them, and there will I require your offerings, and the first fruits of your offerings, with all your holy things.
لأَنَّهُ فِي جَبَلِ قُدْسِي، جَبَلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الشَّامِخِ، هُنَاكَ يَعْبُدُنِي فِي الأَرْضِ شَعْبُ إِسْرَائِيلَ كُلُّهُمْ. هُنَاكَ أَرْضَى عَنْهُمْ وَأَلْتَمِسُ تَقْدِمَاتِكُمْ وَبَاكُورَةَ غَلّاتِكُمْ مَعَ جَمِيعِ مُقَدَّسَاتِكُمْ.٤٠
41 As a pleasant aroma will I accept you, when I bring you out from the peoples, and gather you out of the countries in which you have been scattered; and I will be sanctified in you in the sight of the nations.
وَأَرْضَى عَنْكُمْ كَرَائِحَةِ سُرُورٍ حِينَ أُخْرِجُكُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الشُّعُوبِ، وَأَجْمَعُكُمْ مِنَ الْبُلْدَانِ الَّتِي تَشَتَّتُّمْ إِلَيْهَا، وَأَتَجَلَّى بِقَدَاسَتِي بَيْنَكُمْ عَلَى مَشْهَدٍ مِنَ الأُمَمِ.٤١
42 You shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall bring you into the land of Israel, into the country which I swore to give to your fathers.
فَتُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ حِينَ أَرُدُّكُمْ إِلَى أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَقْسَمْتُ لِآبَائِكُمْ أَنْ أَهَبَهَا لَهُمْ.٤٢
43 There you shall remember your ways, and all your doings, in which you have polluted yourselves; and you shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for all your evils that you have committed.
هُنَاكَ تَذْكُرُونَ طُرُقَ شَرِّكُمْ وَأَعْمَالَكُمُ الَّتِي تَدَنَّسْتُمْ بِها، وَتَمْقُتُونَ أَنْفُسَكُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ مَا ارْتَكَبْتُمُوهُ مِنْ شُرُورٍ.٤٣
44 You shall know that I am the LORD, when I have dealt with you for my name's sake, not according to your evil ways, nor according to your corrupt doings, you house of Israel," says the LORD.'"
فَتُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ حِينَ أُعَامِلُكُمْ، إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِي، لَا بِمُقْتَضَى طُرُقِكُمُ الشِّرِّيرَةِ وَلا بِمُوْجِبِ أَعْمَالِكُمُ السَّيِّئَةِ يَا شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ».٤٤
45 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:٤٥
46 "Son of man, set your face toward the south, and drop your word toward the south, and prophesy against the forest of the field in the South;
«يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، الْتَفِتْ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ وَأَنْذِرْهُ، وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَى أَرْضِ الْغَابَاتِ فِي النَّقَبِ٤٦
47 and tell the forest of the South, 'Hear the word of the LORD: Thus says the LORD, "Look, I will kindle a fire in you, and it shall devour every green tree in you, and every dry tree: the flaming flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be burnt thereby.
وَقُلْ لِغَابَاتِ النَّقَبِ: اسْمَعُوا قَضَاءَ الرَّبِّ، فَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أُضْرِمُ نَاراً فِيكِ فَتَلْتَهِمُ كُلَّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ وَيَابِسَةٍ، وَلا يَنْطَفِئُ لَهِيبُهَا الْمُتَأَجِّجُ، فَتَحْتَرِقُ بِها كُلُّ الْوُجُوهِ مِنَ الْجَنُوبِ إِلَى الشِّمَالِ.٤٧
48 All flesh shall see that I, the LORD, have kindled it; it shall not be quenched."'"
فَيَرَى كُلُّ بَشَرٍ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أَضْرَمْتُهَا، وَلا يُمْكِنُ أَنْ تَنْطَفِئَ».٤٨
49 Then I said, "Ah, LORD. They say of me, 'Isn't he a speaker of parables?'"
عِنْدَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «آهٍ يَا سَيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هُمْ يَقُولُونَ عَنِّي: أَمَا يَضْرِبُ هُوَ أَمْثَالاً فَقَطْ؟»٤٩
