< Matthew 13 >

1 On that day Jesus went out of the house, and sat by the seaside.
فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَومِ خَرَجَ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ وَجَلَسَ عَلَى شَاطِئِ الْبُحَيْرَةِ.١
2 And large crowds gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat, and sat, and all the crowd stood on the beach.
فَاجْتَمَعَتْ إِلَيْهِ جُمُوعٌ كَثِيرَةٌ، حَتَّى إِنَّهُ صَعِدَ إِلَى الْقَارِبِ وَجَلَسَ، بَيْنَمَا وَقَفَ الْجَمْعُ كُلُّهُ عَلَى الشَّاطِئِ.٢
3 And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying, "Look, a farmer went out to sow.
فَكَلَّمَهُمْ بِأَمْثَالٍ فِي أُمُورٍ كَثِيرَةٍ، قَالَ: «هَا إِنَّ الزَّارِعَ قَدْ خَرَجَ لِيَزْرَعَ.٣
4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
وَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَزْرَعُ، وَقَعَ بَعْضُ الْبِذَارِ عَلَى الْمَمَرَّاتِ، فَجَاءَتِ الطُّيُورُ وَالتَهَمَتْهُ.٤
5 And others fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.
وَوَقَعَ بَعْضُهُ عَلَى أَرْضٍ صَخْرِيَّةٍ رَقِيقَةِ التُّرْبَةِ، فَطَلَعَ سَرِيعاً لأَنَّ تُرْبَتَهُ لَمْ تَكُنْ عَمِيقَةً؛٥
6 But when the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.
وَلكِنْ لَمَّا أَشْرَقَتِ الشَّمْسُ، احْتَرَقَ وَيَبِسَ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ بِلا أَصْلٍ.٦
7 Others fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.
وَوَقَعَ بَعْضُ الْبِذَارِ بَيْنَ الأَشْوَاكِ، فَطَلَعَ الشَّوْكُ وَخَنَقَهُ.٧
8 Still others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
وَبَعْضُ الْبِذَارِ وَقَعَ فِي الأَرْضِ الْجَيِّدَةِ، فَأَثْمَرَ بَعْضُهُ مِئَةَ ضِعْفٍ وَبَعْضُهُ سِتِّينَ، وَبَعْضُهُ ثَلاثِينَ.٨
9 He who has ears, let him hear."
مَنْ لَهُ أُذُنَانِ فَلْيَسْمَعْ!»٩
10 Then the disciples came, and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"
فَتَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ التَّلامِيذُ وَسَأَلُوهُ: «لِمَاذَا تُكَلِّمُهُمْ بِأَمْثَالٍ؟»١٠
11 And answering, he said to them, "To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but it is not given to them.
فَأَجَابَ: «لأَنَّهُ قَدْ أُعْطِيَ لَكُمْ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا أَسْرَارَ مَلَكُوتِ السَّمَاوَاتِ؛ أَمَّا أُولَئِكَ، فَلَمْ يُعْطَ لَهُمْ ذَلِكَ.١١
12 For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance, but whoever does not have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.
فَإِنَّ مَنْ عِنْدَهُ، يُعْطَى الْمَزِيدَ فَيَفِيضُ؛ وَأَمَّا مَنْ لَيْسَ عِنْدَهُ، فَحَتَّى الَّذِي عِنْدَهُ يُنْتَزَعُ مِنْهُ.١٢
13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing, they do not hear, neither do they understand.
لِهَذَا السَّبَبِ أُكَلِّمُهُمْ بِأَمْثَالٍ: فَهُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ دُونَ أَنْ يُبْصِرُوا، وَيَسْمَعُونَ دُونَ أَنْ يَسْمَعُوا أَوْ يَفْهَمُوا.١٣
14 And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, 'In hearing you will hear, but will not understand, and seeing you will see, but not perceive.
فَفِيهِمْ قَدْ تَمَّتْ نُبُوءَةُ إِشَعْيَاءَ حَيْثُ يَقُولُ: سَمْعاً تَسْمَعُونَ وَلا تَفْهَمُونَ، وَنَظَراً تَنْظُرُونَ وَلا تُبْصِرُونَ.١٤
15 For the heart of this people has grown dull, and their ears are sluggish in hearing, and they have closed their eyes, otherwise they might see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn back, and I would heal them.'
لأَنَّ قَلْبَ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ قَدْ صَارَ غَلِيظاً، وَصَارَتْ آذَانُهُمْ ثَقِيلَةَ السَّمْعِ، وَأَغْمَضُوا عُيُونَهُمْ؛ لِئَلَّا يُبْصِرُوا بِعُيُونِهِمْ، وَيَسْمَعُوا بِآذَانِهِمْ، وَيَفْهَمُوا بِقُلُوبِهِمْ، وَيَرْجِعُوا إِلَيَّ، فَأَشْفِيَهُمْ!١٥
16 "But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ، فَطُوبَى لِعُيُونِكُمْ لأَنَّهَا تُبْصِرُ، وَلِآذَانِكُمْ لأَنَّهَا تَسْمَعُ.١٦
17 For truly I tell you that many prophets and righteous people desired to see the things which you see, and did not see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them.
فَالْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: كَمْ تَمَنَّى أَنْبِيَاءُ وَصَالِحُونَ كَثِيرُونَ أَنْ يَرَوْا مَا أَنْتُمْ تَرَوْنَ وَلَمْ يَرَوْا، وَأَنْ يَسْمَعُوا مَا تَسْمَعُونَ وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا!١٧
18 "Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.
فَاسْمَعُوا أَنْتُمْ مَعْنَى مَثَلِ الزَّارِعِ:١٨
19 When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and does not understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
كُلُّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ كَلِمَةَ الْمَلَكُوتِ وَلا يَفْهَمُهَا، يَأْتِي الشِّرِّيرُ وَيَخْطَفُ مَا قَدْ زُرِعَ فِي قَلْبِهِ: هَذَا هُوَ الْمَزْرُوعُ عَلَى الْمَمَرَّاتِ.١٩
20 And what was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word, and immediately with joy receives it;
أَمَّا الْمَزْرُوعُ عَلَى أَرْضٍ صَخْرِيَّةٍ، فَهُوَ الَّذِي يَسْمَعُ الْكَلِمَةَ وَيَقْبَلُهَا بِفَرَحٍ فِي الْحَالِ،٢٠
21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
وَلكِنَّهُ لَا أَصْلَ لَهُ فِي ذَاتِهِ، وَإِنَّمَا يَبْقَى إِلَى حِينٍ: فَحَالَمَا يَحْدُثُ ضِيقٌ أَوِ اضْطِهَادٌ مِنْ أَجْلِ الْكَلِمَةِ، يَتَعَثَّرُ.٢١
22 And what was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
أَمَّا الْمَزْرُوعُ بَيْنَ الأَشْوَاكِ، فَهُوَ الَّذِي يَسْمَعُ الْكَلِمَةَ، وَلكِنَّ هَمَّ الزَّمَانِ الْحَاضِرِ وَخِدَاعَ الْغِنَى يَخْنُقَانِ الْكَلِمَةَ، فَلا يُعْطِي ثَمَراً. (aiōn g165)٢٢
23 And what was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who truly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty."
وَأَمَّا الْمَزْرُوعُ فِي الأَرْضِ الْجَيِّدَةِ فَهُوَ الَّذِي يَسْمَعُ الْكَلِمَةَ وَيَفْهَمُهَا، وَهُوَ الَّذِي يُعْطِي ثَمَراً. فَيُنْتِجُ الْوَاحِدُ مِئَةً، وَالآخَرُ سِتِّينَ، وَغَيْرُهُ ثَلاثِينَ!»٢٣
24 He set another parable before them, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a person who sowed good seed in his field,
وَضَرَبَ لَهُمْ مَثَلاً آخَرَ، قَالَ: «يُشَبَّهُ مَلَكُوتُ السَّمَاوَاتِ بِإِنْسَانٍ زَرَعَ زَرْعاً جَيِّداً فِي حَقْلِهِ.٢٤
25 but while everyone slept, his enemy came and sowed tares also among the wheat, and went away.
وَبَيْنَمَا النَّاسُ نَائِمُونَ، جَاءَ عَدُوُّهُ، وَزَرَعَ حَشَائِشَ غَرِيبَةً فِي وَسَطِ الْقَمْحِ، وَمَضَى.٢٥
26 But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then the tares appeared also.
فَلَمَّا نَمَا الْقَمْحُ بِسَنَابِلِهِ، ظَهَرَتِ الحَشَائِشُ مَعَهُ.٢٦
27 So the servants of the householder came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? Where did these tares come from?'
فَذَهَبَ عَبِيدُ رَبِّ الْبَيْتِ، وَقَالُوا لَهُ: يَا سَيِّدُ، أَمَا زَرَعْتَ حَقْلَكَ زَرْعاً جَيِّداً؟ فَمِنْ أَيْنَ جَاءَتْهُ الحَشَائِشُ؟٢٧
28 "And he said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' "And the servants asked him, 'Then do you want us to go and gather them up?'
أَجَابَهُمْ إِنْسَانٌ عَدُوٌّ فَعَلَ هَذَا! فَسَأَلُوهُ: أَتُرِيدُ أَنْ نَذْهَبَ وَنَجْمَعَ الحَشَائشَ؟٢٨
29 "But he said, 'No, lest perhaps while you gather up the tares, you root up the wheat with them.
أَجَابَهُمْ: لا، لِئَلّا تَقْلَعُوا الْقَمْحَ وَأَنْتُمْ تَجْمَعُونَ الحَشَائشَ.٢٩
30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, "First, gather up the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn."'"
اُتْرُكُوهُمَا كِلَيْهِمَا يَنْمُوَانِ مَعاً حَتَّى الْحَصَادِ. وَفِي أَوَانِ الْحَصَادِ، أَقُولُ لِلْحَصَّادِينَ: الحَشَائشَ أَوَّلاً وَارْبِطُوهَا حُزَماً لِتُحْرَقَ. أَمَّا الْقَمْحُ، فَاجْمَعُوهُ إِلَى مَخْزَنِي».٣٠
31 He set another parable before them, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field;
وَضَرَبَ لَهُمْ مَثَلاً آخَرَ، قَالَ: «يُشَبَّهُ مَلَكُوتُ السَّمَاوَاتِ بِبِزْرَةِ خَرْدَلٍ أَخَذَهَا إِنْسَانٌ وَزَرَعَهَا فِي حَقْلِهِ.٣١
32 which indeed is least of all the seeds. But when it has grown it is larger than the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches."
فَمَعَ أَنَّهَا أَصْغَرُ الْبُذُورِ كُلِّهَا، فَحِينَ تَنْمُو تُصْبِحُ أَكْبَرَ الْبُقُولِ جَمِيعاً، ثُمَّ تَصِيرُ شَجَرَةً، حَتَّى إِنَّ طُيُورَ السَّمَاءِ تَأْتِي وَتَبِيتُ فِي أَغْصَانِهَا».٣٢
33 He spoke another parable to them. "The kingdom of heaven is like yeast, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, until it was all leavened."
وَضَرَبَ لَهُمْ مَثَلاً آخَرَ، قَالَ: «يُشَبَّهُ مَلَكُوتُ السَّمَاوَاتِ بِخَمِيرَةٍ أَخَذَتْهَا امْرَأَةٌ وَأَخْفَتْهَا فِي ثَلاثَةِ مَقَادِيرَ مِنَ الدَّقِيقِ، حَتَّى اخْتَمَرَ الْعَجِينُ كُلُّهُ».٣٣
34 Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the crowds; and without a parable, he did not speak to them,
هَذِهِ الأُمُورُ كُلُّهَا كَلَّمَ بِها يَسُوعُ الْجُمُوعَ بِأَمْثَالٍ. وَبِغَيْرِ مَثَلٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُكَلِّمُهُمْ،٣٤
35 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, "I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the beginning of the world."
لِيَتِمَّ مَا قِيلَ بِلِسَانِ النَّبِيِّ الْقَائِلِ: «سَأَفْتَحُ فَمِي بِأَمْثَالٍ، وَأَكْشِفُ مَا كَانَ مَخْفِيًّا مُنْذُ إِنْشَاءِ الْعَالَمِ».٣٥
36 Then Jesus sent the crowds away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the tares in the field."
ثُمَّ صَرَفَ يَسُوعُ الْجُمُوعَ وَرَجَعَ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ. فَتَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ تَلامِيذُهُ وَقَالُوا: «فَسِّرْ لَنَا مَثَلَ حَشَائشِ الْحَقْلِ».٣٦
37 And he answered them, "The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
فَأَجَابَهُمْ: «الزَّارِعُ الزَّرْعَ الْجَيِّدَ هُوَ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ.٣٧
38 and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the children of the Kingdom; and the tares are the children of the evil one,
وَالْحَقْلُ هُوَ الْعَالَمُ. وَالزَّرْعُ الْجَيِّدُ هُوَ بَنُو الْمَلَكُوتِ. وَالحَشَائِشُ الْغَرِيبَةُ هُمْ بَنُو الشِّرِّيرِ.٣٨
39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. (aiōn g165)
أَمَّا الْعَدُوُّ الَّذِي زَرَعَ الحَشَائشَ فَهُوَ إِبْلِيسُ. وَالْحَصَادُ هُوَ نِهَايَةُ الزَّمَانِ. وَالْحَصَّادُونَ هُمُ الْمَلائِكَةُ. (aiōn g165)٣٩
40 As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of the age. (aiōn g165)
وَكَمَا تُجْمَعُ الحَشَائشُ وَتُحْرَقُ بِالنَّارِ، هَكَذَا يَحْدُثُ فِي نِهَايَةِ الزَّمَانِ: (aiōn g165)٤٠
41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and those who do iniquity,
يُرْسِلُ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ مَلائِكَتَهُ، فَيُخْرِجُونَ مِنْ مَلَكُوتِهِ جَمِيعَ الْمُفْسِدِينَ وَمُرْتَكِبِي الإِثْمِ،٤١
42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and the grinding of teeth.
وَيَطْرَحُونَهُمْ فِي أَتُونِ النَّارِ، هُنَاكَ يَكُونُ الْبُكَاءُ وَصَرِيرُ الأَسْنَانِ.٤٢
43 Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
عِنْدَئِذٍ يُضِيءُ الأَبْرَارُ كَالشَّمْسِ فِي مَلَكُوتِ أَبِيهِمْ. مَنْ لَهُ أُذُنَانِ، فَلْيَسْمَعْ!٤٣
44 "The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found, and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.
يُشَبَّهُ مَلَكُوتُ السَّمَاوَاتِ بِكَنْزٍ مَطْمُورٍ فِي حَقْلٍ، وَجَدَهُ رَجُلٌ، فَعَادَ وَخَبَأَهُ. وَمِنْ فَرَحِهِ، ذَهَبَ وَبَاعَ كُلَّ مَا كَانَ يَمْلِكُ وَاشْتَرَى ذلِكَ الْحَقْلَ.٤٤
45 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
وَيُشَبَّهُ مَلَكُوتُ السَّمَاوَاتِ أَيْضاً بِتَاجِرٍ كَانَ يَبْحَثُ عَنِ اللَّآلِئِ الْجَمِيلَةِ.٤٥
46 and having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
فَمَا إِنْ وَجَدَ لُؤْلُؤَةً ثَمِينَةً جِدّاً، حَتَّى ذَهَبَ وَبَاعَ كُلَّ مَا يَمْلِكُ، وَاشْتَرَاهَا.٤٦
47 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some fish of every kind,
وَيُشَبَّهُ مَلَكُوتُ السَّمَاوَاتِ أَيْضاً بِشَبَكَةٍ أُلْقِيَتْ فِي الْبَحْرِ، فَجَمَعَتْ مِنْ كُلِّ نَوْعٍ.٤٧
48 which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach. They sat down, and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.
وَلَمَّا امْتَلأَتْ، جَذَبَهَا الصَّيَّادُونَ إِلَى الشَّاطِئِ وَجَلَسُوا، ثُمَّ جَمَعُوا مَا كَانَ جَيِّداً فِي سِلالٍ، وَطَرَحُوا الرَّدِيءَ خَارِجاً.٤٨
49 So will it be in the end of the world. The angels will come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous, (aiōn g165)
هكَذَا يَحْدُثُ فِي نِهَايَةِ الزَّمَانِ: يَأْتِي الْمَلائِكَةُ فَيُخْرِجُونَ الأَشْرَارَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَبْرَارِ، (aiōn g165)٤٩
50 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the grinding of teeth."
وَيَطْرَحُونَهُمْ فِي أَتُونِ النَّارِ، هُنَاكَ يَكُونُ الْبُكَاءُ وَصَرِيرُ الأَسْنَانِ.٥٠
51 "Have you understood all these things?" They answered him, "Yes."
أَفَهِمْتُمْ هَذِهِ الأُمُورَ كُلَّهَا؟» أَجَابُوهُ: «نَعَمْ!»٥١
52 And he said to them, "Therefore, every scribe who has been made a disciple in the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things."
فَقَالَ: «وَلِهَذَا السَّبَبِ، فَأَيُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَ الْكَتَبَةِ يَصِيرُ تِلْمِيذاً لِمَلَكُوتِ السَّمَاوَاتِ، يُشَبَّهُ بِإِنْسَانٍ رَبِّ بَيْتٍ يُطْلِعُ مِنْ كَنْزِهِ مَا هُوَ جَدِيدٌ وَمَا هُوَ عَتِيقٌ!»٥٢
53 And it happened that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.
وَبَعْدَمَا أَنْهَى يَسُوعُ هَذِهِ الأَمْثَالَ، انْتَقَلَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ.٥٣
54 And coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom, and these mighty works?
وَلَمَّا عَادَ إِلَى بَلْدَتِهِ، أَخَذَ يُعَلِّمُ الْيَهُودَ فِي مَجَامِعِهِمْ، حَتَّى دُهِشُوا وَتَسَاءَلُوا: «مِنْ أَيْنَ لَهُ هَذِهِ الْحِكْمَةُ وَهَذِهِ الْمُعْجِزَاتُ؟٥٤
55 Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?
أَلَيْسَ هُوَ ابْنَ النَّجَّارِ؟ أَلَيْسَتْ أُمُّهُ تُدْعَى مَرْيَمَ وَإخْوَتُهُ يَعْقُوبَ وَيُوسُفَ وَسِمْعَانَ وَيَهُوذَا؟٥٥
56 And are not all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?"
أَوَلَيْسَتْ أَخَوَاتُهُ جَمِيعاً عِنْدَنَا؟ فَمِنْ أَيْنَ لَهُ هَذِهِ كُلُّهَا؟»٥٦
57 And they were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and in his own house."
وَكَانُوا يَشُكُّونَ فِيهِ. أَمَّا هُوَ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لا يَكُونُ النَّبِيُّ بِلا كَرَامَةٍ إِلّا فِي بَلْدَتِهِ وَبَيْتِهِ!»٥٧
58 And he did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
وَلَمْ يُجْرِ هُنَاكَ إِلّا مُعْجِزَاتٍ قَلِيلَةً، بِسَبَبِ عَدَمِ إِيمَانِهِمْ بِهِ.٥٨

< Matthew 13 >
