< Matthew 17 >

1 After six days, Yeshua took with him Kipha, Yaquv, and Yukhanan his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain by themselves.
وَبَعْدَ سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ، أَخَذَ يَسُوعُ بُطْرُسَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَيُوحَنَّا أَخَاهُ، وَصَعِدَ بِهِمْ عَلَى انْفِرَادٍ إِلَى جَبَلٍ عَالٍ،١
2 He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
وَتَجَلَّى أَمَامَهُمْ، فَشَعَّ وَجْهُهُ كَالشَّمْسِ، وَصَارَتْ ثِيَابُهُ بَيْضَاءَ كَالنُّورِ.٢
3 And look, Mushe and Eliya appeared to them talking with him.
وَإذَا مُوسَى وَإِيلِيَّا قَدْ ظَهَرَا لَهُمْ يَتَحَدَّثَانِ مَعَهُ.٣
4 Kipha answered, and said to Yeshua, "Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let us make three tents here: one for you, one for Mushe, and one for Eliya."
فَبَدَأَ بُطْرُسُ يَقُولُ لِيَسُوعَ: «يَا رَبُّ، مَا أَحْسَنَ أَنْ نَبْقَى هُنَا! فَإِذَا شِئْتَ، أَنْصُبُ هُنَا ثَلاثَ خِيَامٍ: وَاحِدَةً لَكَ، وَوَاحِدَةً لِمُوسَى، وَوَاحِدَةً لإِيلِيَّا».٤
5 While he was still speaking, look, a bright cloud overshadowed them. And look, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him."
وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ، إِذَا سَحَابَةٌ مُنِيرَةٌ قَدْ ظَلَّلَتْهُمْ، وَجَاءَ صَوْتٌ مِنَ السَّحَابَةِ قَائِلاً: «هَذَا هُوَ ابْنِي الْحَبِيبُ الَّذِي سُرِرْتُ بِهِ كُلَّ سُرُورٍ. لَهُ اسْمَعُوا!»٥
6 When the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very afraid.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ التَّلامِيذُ الصَّوْتَ، وَقَعُوا عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ مُرْتَعِبِينَ جِدّاً.٦
7 Yeshua came and touched them and said, "Get up, and do not be afraid."
فَاقْتَرَبَ مِنْهُمْ يَسُوعُ وَلَمَسَهُمْ وَقَالَ: «انْهَضُوا وَلا تَرْتَعِبُوا!»٧
8 And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one except Yeshua alone.
فَرَفَعُوا أَنْظَارَهُمْ، فَلَمْ يَرَوْا إِلّا يَسُوعَ وَحْدَهُ.٨
9 As they were coming down from the mountain, Yeshua commanded them, saying, "Do not tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead."
وَفِيمَا هُمْ نَازِلُونَ مِنَ الْجَبَلِ، أَوْصَاهُمْ يَسُوعُ قَائِلاً: «لا تُخْبِرُوا أَحَداً بِمَا رَأَيْتُمْ حَتَّى يَقُومَ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ».٩
10 The disciples asked him, saying, "Then why do the scribes say that Eliya must come first?"
فَسَأَلَهُ تَلامِيذُهُ: «لِمَاذَا إِذَنْ يَقُولُ الْكَتَبَةُ إِنَّ إِيلِيَّا لابُدَّ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ أَوَّلاً؟»١٠
11 And he answered and said, "Eliya indeed comes, and will restore all things,
فَأَجَابَهُمْ قَائِلاً: «حَقّاً، إِنَّ إِيلِيَّا يَأْتِي أَوَّلاً وَيُصْلِحُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ.١١
12 but I tell you that Eliya has come already, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also suffer by them."
عَلَى أَنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: قَدْ جَاءَ إِيلِيَّا، وَلَمْ يَعْرِفُوهُ، بَلْ فَعَلُوا بِهِ كُلَّ مَا شَاءُوا. كَذَلِكَ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ أَيْضاً عَلَى وَشْكِ أَنْ يَتَأَلَّمَ عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ».١٢
13 Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of Yukhanan the Baptist.
عِنْدَئِذٍ فَهِمَ التَّلامِيذُ أَنَّهُ كَلَّمَهُمْ عَنْ يُوحَنَّا الْمَعْمَدَانِ.١٣
14 When they came to the crowd, a man came to him, kneeling down to him, saying,
وَلَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلَى الْجَمْعِ، تَقَدَّمَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى يَسُوعَ، وَجَثَا أَمَامَهُ،١٤
15 "Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic, and suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.
وَقَالَ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، ارْحَمِ ابْنِي لأَنَّهُ مُصَابٌ بِالصَّرْعِ، وَهُوَ يَتَعَذَّبُ عَذَاباً شَدِيداً. وَكَثِيراً مَا يَسْقُطُ فِي النَّارِ أَوْ فِي الْمَاءِ.١٥
16 So I brought him to your disciples, and they could not cure him."
وَقَدْ أَحْضَرْتُهُ إِلَى تَلامِيذِكَ، فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِيعُوا أَنْ يَشْفُوهُ».١٦
17 Yeshua answered, "Faithless and perverse generation. How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me."
فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ قَائِلاً: «أَيُّهَا الْجِيلُ غَيْرُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَالأَعْوَجُ، إِلَى مَتَى أَبْقَى مَعَكُمْ؟ إِلَى مَتَى أَحْتَمِلُكُمْ؟ أَحْضِرُوهُ إِلَيَّ هُنَا!»١٧
18 Yeshua rebuked him, the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.
وَزَجَرَ يَسُوعُ الشَّيْطَانَ، فَخَرَجَ مِنَ الصَّبِيِّ، وَشُفِيَ الصَّبِيُّ مِنْ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ.١٨
19 Then the disciples came to Yeshua privately, and said, "Why weren't we able to cast it out?"
ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ التَّلامِيذُ إِلَى يَسُوعَ عَلَى انْفِرَادٍ وَسَأَلُوهُ: «لِمَاذَا عَجَزْنَا نَحْنُ أَنْ نَطْرُدَ الشَّيْطَانَ؟»١٩
20 So he said to them, "Because of your little faith. For truly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you."
أَجَابَهُمْ: «لِقِلَّةِ إِيمَانِكُمْ. فَالْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لَوْ كَانَ لَكُمْ إِيمَانٌ مِثْلُ بِزْرَةِ خَرْدَلٍ، لَكُنْتُمْ تَقُولُونَ لِهَذَا الْجَبَلِ: اِنْتَقِلْ مِنْ هُنَا إِلَى هُنَاكَ، فَيَنْتَقِلُ، وَلا يَسْتَحِيلُ عَلَيْكُمْ شَيْءٌ.٢٠
أَمَّا هَذَا النَّوْعُ مِنَ الشَّيَاطِينِ، فَلا يُطْرَدُ إِلّا بِالصَّاللاةِ وَالصَّوْمِ».٢١
22 While they were gathering together in Galila, Yeshua said to them, "The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,
وَفِيمَا كَانُوا يَتَجَمَّعُونَ فِي الْجَلِيلِ، قَالَ يَسُوعُ لِتَلامِيذِهِ: «اِبْنُ الإِنْسَانِ عَلَى وَشْكِ أَنْ يُسَلَّمَ إِلَى أَيْدِي النَّاسِ،٢٢
23 and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up." They were exceedingly sorry.
فَيَقْتُلُونَهُ. وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ يُقَامُ». فَحَزِنُوا حُزْناً شَدِيداً.٢٣
24 When they had come to Kepharnakhum, those who collected the zuzeen coins came to Kipha, and said, "Does not your teacher pay the zuzeen?"
وَلَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلَى كَفْرَنَاحُومَ، جَاءَ جُبَاةُ ضَرِيبَةِ الدِّرْهَمَيْنِ لِلْهَيْكَلِ إِلَى بُطْرُسَ، وَقَالُوا: «أَلا يُؤَدِّي مُعَلِّمُكُمُ الدِّرْهَمَيْنِ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «بَلَى!»٢٤
25 He said, "Yes." When he came into the house, Yeshua anticipated him, saying, "What do you think, Shimon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?"
وَمَا إِنْ دَخَلَ بُطْرُسُ الْبَيْتَ، حَتَّى سَأَلَهُ يَسُوعُ: «مَا رَأْيُكَ يَا سِمْعَانُ: مِمَّنْ يَسْتَوْفِي مُلُوكُ الأَرْضِ الْجِزْيَةَ أَوِ الضَّرِيبَةَ؟ أَمِنْ أَبْنَاءِ بِلادِهِمْ، أَمْ مِنَ الأَجَانِبِ؟»٢٥
26 And when he said, "From strangers." Yeshua said to him, "Therefore the children are exempt.
أَجَابَ بُطْرُسُ: «مِنَ الأَجَانِبِ». فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «إِذَنِ الأَبْنَاءُ أَحْرَارٌ،٢٦
27 But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the lake, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. Take that, and give it to them for me and you."
وَلكِنْ لِكَيْ لَا نَضَعَ لَهُمْ عَثْرَةً، اذْهَبْ إِلَى الْبُحَيْرَةِ، وَأَلْقِ صِنَّارَةَ الصَّيْدِ؛ وَأَمْسِكِ السَّمَكَةَ الَّتِي تَطْلُعُ أَوَّلاً، ثُمَّ افْتَحْ فَمَهَا تَجِدْ فِيهِ قِطْعَةَ نَقْدٍ بِقِيمَةِ أَرْبَعَةِ دَرَاهِمَ، فَخُذْهَا وَادْفَعْ الضَّرِيبَةَ عَنِّي وَعَنْكَ!»٢٧
