John 16

1 "I have said all these things to you so that you may be kept from stumbling.

١ قُلْتُ لَكُمْ هَذَا لِكَيْ لَا تَتَزَعْزَعُوا.

2 They will put you out of the synagogues, but an hour is coming when whoever kills you will think that he is offering a service to God.

٢ سَتُطْرَدُونَ خَارِجَ الْمَجَامِعِ، بَلْ سَيَأْتِي وَقْتٌ يَظُنُّ فِيهِ مَنْ يَقْتُلُكُمْ أَنَّهُ يُؤَدِّي خِدْمَةً لِلهِ.

3 They will do these things because they have not known the Father or me.

٣ وَهُمْ يَفْعَلُونَ هَذَا بِكُمْ لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا أَبِي، وَلا عَرَفُونِي.

4 But I have told you these things, so that when their hour comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.

٤ قُلْتُ لَكُمْ هَذَا حَتَّى مَتَى جَاءَ وَقْتُ حُدُوثِهِ تَذْكُرُونَ أَنَّهُ سَبَقَ أَنْ أَخْبَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ. وَلَمْ أَقُلْ لَكُمْ هَذَا مُنْذُ الْبَدَايَةِ لأَنِّي كُنْتُ مَعَكُمْ؛

5 But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, 'Where are you going?'

٥ أَمَّا الآنَ فَإِنِّي عَائِدٌ إِلَى الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي، وَلا أَحَدَ مِنْكُمْ يَسْأَلُنِي: أَيْنَ تَذْهَبُ؟

6 But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.

٦ عِنْدَمَا أَخْبَرْتُكُمْ بِهَذَا مَلأَ الْحُزْنُ قُلُوبَكُمْ.

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper won't come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

٧ وَلكِنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمُ الْحَقَّ: مِنَ الأَفْضَلِ لَكُمْ أَنْ أَذْهَبَ، لأَنِّي إِنْ كُنْتُ لَا أَذْهَبُ، لَا يَأْتِيكُمُ الْمُعِينُ. وَلكِنِّي إِذَا ذَهَبْتُ أُرْسِلُهُ إِلَيْكُمْ.

8 When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, and about righteousness, and about judgment;

٨ وَعِنْدَمَا يَجِيءُ يُبَكِّتُ الْعَالَمَ عَلَى الْخَطِيئَةِ وَعَلَى الْبِرِّ وَعَلَى الدَّيْنُونَةِ:

9 about sin, because they do not believe in me;

٩ أَمَّا عَلَى الْخَطِيئَةِ، فَلأَنَّهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِي،

10 about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, and you won't see me any more;

١٠ وَأَمَّا عَلَى الْبِرِّ، فَلأَنِّي عَائِدٌ إِلَى الآبِ فَلا تَرَوْنَنِي بَعْدُ؛

11 about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.

١١ وَأَمَّا عَلَى الدَّيْنُونَةِ، فَلأَنَّ سَيِّدَ هَذَا الْعَالَمِ قَدْ صَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ حُكْمُ الدَّيْنُونَةِ.

12 "I have yet many things to tell you, but you cannot bear them now.

١٢ مَازَالَ عِنْدِي أُمُورٌ كَثِيرَةٌ أَقُولُهَا لَكُمْ، وَلكِنَّكُمُ الآنَ تَعْجَزُونَ عَنِ احْتِمَالِهَا.

13 However when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak on his own; but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you things that are coming.

١٣ وَلكِنْ، عِنْدَمَا يَأْتِيكُمْ رُوحُ الْحَقِّ يُرْشِدُكُمْ إِلَى الْحَقِّ كُلِّهِ، لأَنَّهُ لَا يَقُولُ شَيْئاً مِنْ عِنْدِهِ، بَلْ يُخْبِرُكُمْ بِمَا يَسْمَعُهُ، وَيُطْلِعُكُمْ عَلَى مَا سَوْفَ يَحْدُثُ.

14 He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine, and will declare it to you.

١٤ وَهُوَ سَيُمَجِّدُنِي لأَنَّ كُلَّ مَا سَيُحَدِّثُكُمْ بِهِ صَادِرٌ عَنِّي.

15 All things that the Father has are mine; that is why I said that he takes of mine, and will declare it to you.

١٥ كُلُّ مَا هُوَ لِلآبِ، فَهُوَ لِي. وَلِذلِكَ قُلْتُ لَكُمْ إِنَّ مَا سَيُحَدِّثُكُمْ بِهِ صَادِرٌ عَنِّي.

16 A little while, and you will no longer see me. Again a little while, and you will see me."

١٦ بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ لَا تَرَوْنَنِي، وَبَعْدَ ذلِكَ بِقَلِيلٍ تَرَوْنَنِي!»

17 Some of his disciples therefore said to one another, "What is this that he says to us, 'A little while, and you won't see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;' and, 'Because I go to the Father?'"

١٧ فَتَسَاءَلَ بَعْضُ التَّلامِيذِ: «تُرَى، مَا مَعْنَى قَوْلِهِ: بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ لَا تَرَوْنَنِي، وَبَعْدَ ذلِكَ بِقَلِيلٍ تَرَوْنَنِي، وَأَيْضاً: لأَنِّي عَائِدٌ إِلَى الآبِ؟»

18 So they kept asking, "What is this that he says, 'A little while?' We do not know what he is saying."

١٨ وَقَالُوا: «مَا هُوَ هَذَا الْقَلِيلُ الَّذِي يَتَحَدَّثُ عَنْهُ؟ لَسْنَا نَفْهَمُ مَا يَقُولُهُ!»

19 Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him, so he said to them, "Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, 'A little while, and you won't see me, and again a little while, and you will see me?'

١٩ وَعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ أَنَّهُمْ يَرْغَبُونَ فِي أَنْ يَسْأَلُوهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «تَتَسَاءَلُونَ عَنْ مَعْنَى قَوْلِي: بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ لَا تَرَوْنَنِي ثُمَّ بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ تَرَوْنَنِي أَيْضاً.

20 Truly, truly, I tell you, that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.

٢٠ الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّكُمْ سَتَبْكُونَ وَتَنُوحُونَ، أَمَّا الْعَالَمُ فَيَفْرَحُ. إِنَّكُمْ سَتَحْزَنُونَ، وَلكِنَّ حُزْنَكُمْ سَيَتَحَوَّلُ إِلَى فَرَحٍ.

21 A woman, when she gives birth, has pain, because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she does not remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.

٢١ الْمَرْأَةُ تَحْزَنُ إِذَا حَانَتْ سَاعَتُهَا لِتَلِدَ. وَلكِنَّهَا حَالَمَا تَلِدُ طِفْلَهَا، لَا تَعُودُ تَتَذَكَّرُ عَنَاءَهَا، لِفَرَحِهَا بِأَنَّ إِنْسَاناً قَدْ وُلِدَ فِي الْعَالَمِ.

22 Therefore you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.

٢٢ فَكَذلِكَ أَنْتُمْ، تَحْزَنُونَ الآنَ؛ وَلكِنْ عِنْدَمَا أَعُودُ لِلِقَائِكُمْ، تَبْتَهِجُ قُلُوبُكُمْ، وَلا أَحَدَ يَسْلُبُكُمْ فَرَحَكُمْ.

23 "And in that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

٢٣ وَفِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ لَا تَسْأَلُونَنِي عَنْ شَيْءٍ. الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ الآبَ سَيُعْطِيكُمْ كُلَّ مَا تَطْلُبُونَ مِنْهُ بِاسْمِي.

24 Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.

٢٤ حَتَّى الآنَ لَمْ تَطْلُبُوا بِاسْمِي شَيْئاً. اطْلُبُوا تَنَالُوا، فَيَكُونَ فَرَحُكُمْ كَامِلاً.

25 I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. The hour is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.

٢٥ ضَرَبْتُ لَكُمْ أَمْثَالاً فِي كَلامِي عَنْ هَذِهِ الأُمُورِ، وَلكِنْ سَيَأْتِي وَقْتٌ أُحَدِّثُكُمْ فِيهِ عَنِ الآبِ بِكَلامٍ صَرِيحٍ، دُونَ أَمْثَالٍ.

26 In that day you will ask in my name, and I am not saying to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf,

٢٦ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ تَطْلُبُونَ مِنَ الآبِ بِاسْمِي. وَلَسْتُ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ إِنِّي أَطْلُبُ إِلَيْهِ عَنْكُمْ.

27 for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from God.

٢٧ فَإِنَّ الآبَ نَفْسَهُ يُحِبُّكُمْ، لأَنَّكُمْ أَحْبَبْتُمُونِي، وَآمَنْتُمْ بِأَنِّي مِنْ عِنْدِ اللهِ خَرَجْتُ.

28 I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world, and go to the Father."

٢٨ خَرَجْتُ مِنْ عِنْدِ الآبِ، وَأَتَيْتُ إِلَى الْعَالَمِ. وَهَا أَنَا أَتْرُكُ الْعَالَمَ وَأَعُودُ إِلَى الآبِ».

29 His disciples said to him, "Look, now you are speaking plainly and not in any figure of speech.

٢٩ فَقَالَ لَهُ تَلامِيذُهُ: «هَا أَنْتَ الآنَ تُكَلِّمُنَا كَلاماً صَرِيحاً بِغَيْرِ أَمْثَالٍ.

30 Now we know that you know all things and do not need anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came forth from God."

٣٠ فَالآنَ نَعْرِفُ أَنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، وَلا تَحْتَاجُ إِلَى أَنْ يَسْأَلَكَ أَحَدٌ. لِذلِكَ نُؤْمِنُ أَنَّكَ جِئْتَ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللهِ».

31 Jesus answered them, "Do you now believe?

٣١ فَرَدَّ يَسُوعُ: «أَفَالآنَ تُؤْمِنُونَ؟

32 Look, the time is coming, and has come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. But I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

٣٢ سَتَأْتِي سَاعَةٌ وَهَا قَدْ حَانَتِ الآنَ فِيهَا تَتَفَرَّقُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ، وَتَتْرُكُونَنِي وَحْدِي. وَلكِنِّي لَسْتُ وَحْدِي، لأَنَّ الآبَ مَعِي.

33 I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up. I have overcome the world."

٣٣ أَخْبَرْتُكُمْ بِهَذَا كُلِّهِ لِيَكُونَ لَكُمْ فِيَّ سَلامٌ. فَإِنَّكُمْ فِي الْعَالَمِ سَتُقَاسُونَ الضِّيقَ. وَلكِنْ تَشَجَّعُوا، فَأَنَا قَدِ انْتَصَرْتُ عَلَى الْعَالَمِ!»
