< 1 Timothy 2 >

1 I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings, be made for all people:
فَأَطْلُبُ، قَبْلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، أَنْ تُقِيمُوا الطِّلْبَاتِ الْحَارَّةَ وَالصَّلَوَاتِ وَالتَّضَرُّعَاتِ وَالتَّشَكُّرَاتِ لأَجْلِ جَمِيعِ النَّاسِ،١
2 for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence.
وَلأَجْلِ الْمُلُوكِ وَأَصْحَابِ السُّلْطَةِ، لِكَيْ نَعِيشَ حَيَاةً مُطْمَئِنَّةً هَادِئَةً كُلِّيَّةَ التَّقْوَى وَالْوَقَارِ.٢
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;
فَإِنَّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ جَيِّدٌ وَمَقْبُولٌ فِي نَظَرِ اللهِ مُخَلِّصِنَا،٣
4 who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.
فَهُوَ يُرِيدُ لِجَمِيعِ النَّاسِ أَنْ يَخْلُصُوا، وَيُقْبِلُوا إِلَى مَعْرِفَةِ الْحَقِّ،٤
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and humanity, a human, Christ Jesus,
فَإِنَّ اللهَ وَاحِدٌ، وَالْوَسِيطُ بَيْنَ اللهِ وَالنَّاسِ وَاحِدٌ، وَهُوَ الإِنْسَانُ الْمَسِيحُ يَسُوعُ،٥
6 who gave himself as a ransom for all; the testimony in its own times;
الَّذِي بَذَلَ نَفْسَهُ فِدْيَةً عِوَضاً عَنِ الْجَمِيعِ. هَذِهِ شَهَادَةٌ تُؤَدَّى فِي أَوْقَاتِهَا الْخَاصَّةِ،٦
7 to which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the non-Jews in faith and truth.
وَلَهَا قَدْ عُيِّنْتُ أَنَا مُبَشِّراً وَرَسُولاً، الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ وَلَسْتُ أَكْذِبُ، مُعَلِّماً لِلأُمَمِ فِي الإِيمَانِ وَالْحَقِّ.٧
8 I desire therefore that the men in every place pray, lifting up holy hands without anger and doubting.
فَأُرِيدُ إِذَنْ، أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ الرِّجَالُ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ، رَافِعِينَ أَيَادِيَ طَاهِرَةً، وَهُمْ لَا يُضْمِرُونَ أَيَّ حِقْدٍ أَوْ شُكُوكٍ.٨
9 In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety; not just with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing;
كَمَا أُرِيدُ أَيْضاً، أَنْ تَظْهَرَ النِّسَاءُ بِمَظْهَرٍ لائِقٍ مُحْتَشِمِ الثِّيَابِ، مُتَزَيِّنَاتٍ بِالْحَيَاءِ وَالرَّزَانَةِ، غَيْرَ مُتَحَلِّيَاتٍ بِالضَّفَائِرِ وَالذَّهَبِ وَاللآلِئِ وَالْحُلَلِ الْغَالِيَةِ الثَّمَنِ،٩
10 but (which becomes women professing godliness) with good works.
بَلْ بِمَا يَلِيقُ بِنِسَاءٍ يَعْتَرِفْنَ عَلَناً بِأَنَّهُنَّ يَعِشْنَ فِي تَقْوَى اللهِ، بِالأَعْمَالِ الصَّالِحَةِ!١٠
11 Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.
عَلَى الْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تَتَلَقَّى التَّعْلِيمَ بِسُكُوتٍ وَبِكُلِّ خُضُوعٍ.١١
12 But I do not permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.
وَلَسْتُ أَسْمَحُ لِلْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تُعَلِّمَ وَلا تَتَسَلَّطَ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ. بَلْ عَلَيْهَا أَنْ تَلْزَمَ السُّكُوتَ.١٢
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
ذَلِكَ لأَنَّ آدَمَ كُوِّنَ أَوَّلاً، ثُمَّ حَوَّاءُ:١٣
14 Adam was not deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;
وَلَمْ يَكُنْ آدَمُ هُوَ الَّذِي انْخَدَعَ (بِمَكْرِ الشَّيْطَانِ)، بَلِ الْمَرْأَةُ انْخَدَعَتْ، فَوَقَعَتْ فِي الْمَعْصِيَةِ.١٤
15 but she will be delivered through the childbirth, if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.
إِلا أَنَّهَا سَتَخْلُصُ بِوِلادَةِ الأَوْلادِ، عَلَى أَنْ يَثْبُتْنَ فِي الإِيمَانِ وَالْمَحَبَّةِ وَالْقَدَاسَةِ مَعَ الرَّزَانَةِ!١٥
