< John 4 >

1 When therefore the Lord knew how that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
وَلَمَّا عَرَفَ الرَّبُّ أَنَّ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ سَمِعُوا أَنَّهُ يَتَّخِذُ تَلامِيذَ وَيُعَمِّدُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ يُوحَنَّا،١
2 (although Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples),
مَعَ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ نَفْسَهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُعَمِّدُ بَلْ تَلامِيذُهُ،٢
3 he left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
تَرَكَ مِنْطَقَةَ الْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَرَجَعَ إِلَى مِنْطَقَةِ الْجَلِيلِ.٣
4 And he must needs pass through Samaria.
وَكَانَ لابُدَّ لَهُ أَنْ يَمُرَّ بِمِنْطَقَةِ السَّامِرَةِ،٤
5 So he cometh to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph:
فَوَصَلَ إِلَى بَلْدَةٍ فِيهَا، تُدْعَى سُوخَارَ، قَرِيبَةٍ مِنَ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبَهَا يَعْقُوبُ لابْنِهِ يُوسُفَ،٥
6 and Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
حَيْثُ بِئْرُ يَعْقُوبَ. وَلَمَّا كَانَ يَسُوعُ قَدْ تَعِبَ مِنَ السَّفَرِ، جَلَسَ عَلَى حَافَةِ الْبِئْرِ، وَكَانَتِ السَّاعَةُ حَوَالَيْ السَّادِسَةِ.٦
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
وَجَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ سَامِرِيَّةٌ إِلَى الْبِئْرِ لِتَأْخُذَ مَاءً، فَقَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: «اسْقِينِي!»٧
8 For his disciples were gone away into the city to buy food.
فَإِنَّ تَلامِيذَهُ كَانُوا قَدْ ذَهَبُوا إِلَى الْبَلْدَةِ لِيَشْتَرُوا طَعَاماً.٨
9 The Samaritan woman therefore saith unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a Samaritan woman? (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
فَقَالَتْ لَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ السَّامِرِيَّةُ: «أَنْتَ يَهُودِيٌّ وَأَنَا سَامِرِيَّةٌ، فَكَيْفَ تَطْلُبُ مِنِّي أَنْ أَسْقِيَكَ؟» فَإِنَّ الْيَهُودَ لَمْ يَكُونُوا يَتَعَامَلُونَ مَعَ أَهْلِ السَّامِرَةِ.٩
10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
فَأَجَابَهَا يَسُوعُ: «لَوْ كُنْتِ تَعْرِفِينَ عَطِيَّةَ اللهِ، وَمَنْ هُوَ الَّذِي يَقُولُ لَكِ: اسْقِينِي، لَطَلَبْتِ أَنْتِ مِنْهُ فَأَعْطَاكِ مَاءً حَيًّا!»١٠
11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
فَقَالَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ: «وَلكِنْ يَا سَيِّدُ، لَيْسَ مَعَكَ دَلْوٌ، وَالْبِئْرُ عَمِيقَةٌ. فَمِنْ أَيْنَ لَكَ الْمَاءُ الْحَيُّ؟١١
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
هَلْ أَنْتَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ أَبِينَا يَعْقُوبَ الَّذِي أَوْرَثَنَا هذِهِ الْبِئْرَ، وَقَدْ شَرِبَ مِنْهَا هُوَ وَبَنُوهُ وَمَوَاشِيهِ؟»١٢
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
فَقَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: «كُلُّ مَنْ يَشْرَبُ مِنْ هَذَا الْمَاءِ يَعُودُ فَيَعْطَشُ.١٣
14 but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall become in him a well of water springing up unto eternal life. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
وَلكِنَّ الَّذِي يَشْرَبُ مِنَ الْمَاءِ الَّذِي أُعْطِيهِ أَنَا، لَنْ يَعْطَشَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَبَداً، بَلْ إِنَّ مَا أُعْطِيهِ مِنْ مَاءٍ يُصْبِحُ فِي دَاخِلِهِ نَبْعاً يَفِيضُ فَيُعْطِي حَيَاةً أَبَدِيَّةً». (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)١٤
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come all the way hither to draw.
فَقَالَتْ لَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، أَعْطِنِي هَذَا الْمَاءَ فَلا أَعْطَشَ وَلا أَعُودَ إِلَى هُنَا لِآخُذَ مَاءً».١٥
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
فَقَالَ لَهَا: «اذْهَبِي وَادْعِي زَوْجَكِ، وَارْجِعِي إِلَى هُنَا».١٦
17 The woman answered and said unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, I have no husband:
فَأَجَابَتْ: «لَيْسَ لِي زَوْجٌ!» فَقَالَ: «صَدَقْتِ إِذْ قُلْتِ: لَيْسَ لِي زَوْجٌ١٧
18 for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said truly.
فَقَدْ كَانَ لَكِ خَمْسَةُ أَزْوَاجٍ، وَالَّذِي تَعِيشِينَ مَعَهُ الآنَ لَيْسَ زَوْجَكِ. هذا قُلْتِهِ بِالصِّدْقِ!»١٨
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
فَقَالَتْ لَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، أَرَى أَنَّكَ نَبِيٌّ.١٩
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
آبَاؤُنَا عَبَدُوا اللهَ فِي هَذَا الْجَبَلِ، وَأَنْتُمُ الْيَهُودَ تُصِرُّونَ عَلَى أَنَّ أُورُشَلِيمَ يَجِبُ أَنْ تَكُونَ الْمَرْكَزَ الْوَحِيدَ لِلْعِبَادَةِ».٢٠
21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father.
فَأَجَابَهَا يَسُوعُ: «صَدِّقِينِي يَا امْرَأَةُ، سَتَأْتِي السَّاعَةُ الَّتِي فِيهَا تَعْبُدُونَ الآبَ لَا فِي هَذَا الْجَبَلِ وَلا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ.٢١
22 Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know: for salvation is from the Jews.
أَنْتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ مَا تَجْهَلُونَ، وَنَحْنُ نَعْبُدُ مَا نَعْلَمُ، لأَنَّ الْخَلاصَ هُوَ مِنْ عِنْدِ الْيَهُودِ.٢٢
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.
فَسَتَأْتِي سَاعَةٌ، بَلْ هِيَ الآنَ، حِينَ يَعْبُدُ الْعَابِدُونَ الصَّادِقُونَ الآبَ بِالرُّوحِ وَبِالْحَقِّ. لأَنَّ الآبَ يَبْتَغِي مِثْلَ هؤُلاءِ الْعَابِدِينَ.٢٣
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.
اللهُ رُوحٌ، فَلِذلِكَ لابُدَّ لِعَابِدِيهِ مِنْ أَنْ يَعْبُدُوهُ بِالرُّوحِ وَبِالْحَقِّ».٢٤
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messiah cometh (which is called Christ): when he is come, he will declare unto us all things.
فَقَالَتْ لَهُ الْمَرْأَةُ: «إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ الْمَسِيَّا، الَّذِي يُدْعَى الْمَسِيحَ، سَيَأْتِي، وَمَتَى جَاءَ فَهُوَ يُعْلِنُ لَنَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ».٢٥
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am [he].
فَأَجَابَهَا: «إِنِّي أَنَا هُوَ الَّذِي يُكَلِّمُكِ!»٢٦
27 And upon this came his disciples; and they marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?
وَعِنْدَ ذلِكَ وَصَلَ التَّلامِيذُ، وَدُهِشُوا لَمَّا رَأَوْهُ يُحَادِثُ امْرَأَةً. وَمَعَ ذلِكَ لَمْ يَقُلْ لَهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ: «مَاذَا تُرِيدُ مِنْهَا؟» أَوْ «لِمَاذَا تُحَادِثُهَا؟»٢٧
28 So the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the city, and saith to the men,
فَتَرَكَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ جَرَّتَهَا وَعَادَتْ إِلَى الْبَلْدَةِ، وَأَخَذَتْ تَقُولُ لِلنَّاسِ:٢٨
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that [ever] I did: can this be the Christ?
«تَعَالَوْا انْظُرُوا إِنْسَاناً كَشَفَ لِي كُلَّ مَا فَعَلْتُ! فَلَعَلَّهُ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ؟»٢٩
30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
فَخَرَجَ أَهْلُ سُوخَارَ وَأَقْبَلُوا إِلَيْهِ.٣٠
31 In the mean while the disciples prayed him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
وَفِي أَثْنَاءِ ذلِكَ كَانَ التَّلامِيذُ يَقُولُونَ لَهُ بِإِلْحَاحٍ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، كُلْ»٣١
32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not.
فَأَجَابَهُمْ: «عِنْدِي طَعَامٌ آكُلُهُ لَا تَعْرِفُونَهُ أَنْتُمْ».٣٢
33 The disciples therefore said one to another, Hath any man brought him [aught] to eat?
فَأَخَذَ التَّلامِيذُ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ: «هَلْ جَاءَهُ أَحَدٌ بِمَا يَأْكُلُهُ؟»٣٣
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «طَعَامِي هُوَ أَنْ أَعْمَلَ مَشِيئَةَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي وَأَنْ أُنْجِزَ عَمَلَهُ.٣٤
35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh the harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white already unto harvest.
أَمَا تَقُولُونَ: بَعْدَ أَرْبَعَةِ أَشْهُرٍ يَأْتِي الْحَصَادُ! وَلكِنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: انْظُرُوا مَلِيًّا إِلَى الْحُقُولِ، فَهِيَ قَدْ نَضَجَتْ وَحَانَ حَصَادُهَا.٣٥
36 He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal; that he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
وَالْحَاصِدُ يَأْخُذُ أُجْرَتَهُ، وَيَجْمَعُ الثَّمَرَ لِلْحَيَاةِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ، فَيَفْرَحُ الزَّارِعُ وَالْحَاصِدُ مَعاً، (aiōnios g166)٣٦
37 For herein is the saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
حَتَّى يَصْدُقَ الْقَوْلُ: وَاحِدٌ يَزْرَعُ، وَآخَرُ يَحْصُدُ.٣٧
38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye have not laboured: others have laboured, and ye are entered into their labour.
إِنِّي أَرْسَلْتُكُمْ لِتَحْصُدُوا مَا لَمْ تَتْعَبُوا فِيهِ، فَغَيْرُكُمْ تَعِبُوا، وَأَنْتُمْ تَجْنُونَ ثَمَرَ أَتْعَابِهِمْ».٣٨
39 And from that city many of the Samaritans believed on him because of the word of the woman, who testified, He told me all things that [ever] I did.
فَآمَنَ بِهِ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ السَّامِرِيِّينَ أَهْلِ تِلْكَ الْبَلْدَةِ بِسَبَبِ كَلامِ الْمَرْأَةِ الَّتِي كَانَتْ تَشْهَدُ قَائِلَةً: «كَشَفَ لِي كُلَّ مَا فَعَلْتُ».٣٩
40 So when the Samaritans came unto him, they besought him to abide with them: and he abode there two days.
وَعِنْدَمَا قَابَلُوهُ عِنْدَ الْبِئْرِ دَعَوْهُ أَنْ يُقِيمَ عِنْدَهُمْ، فَأَقَامَ هُنَالِكَ يَوْمَيْنِ،٤٠
41 And many more believed because of his word;
وَتَكَاثَرَ جِدّاً عَدَدُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِهِ بِسَبَبِ كَلامِهِ،٤١
42 and they said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy speaking: for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world.
وَقَالُوا لِلْمَرْأَةِ: «إِنَّنَا لَا نُؤْمِنُ بَعْدَ الآنَ بِسَبَبِ كَلامِكِ، بَلْ نُؤْمِنُ لأَنَّنَا سَمِعْنَاهُ بِأَنْفُسِنَا، وَعَرَفْنَا أَنَّهُ مُخَلِّصُ الْعَالَمِ حَقّاً!»٤٢
43 And after the two days he went forth from thence into Galilee.
وَبَعْدَ قَضَاءِ الْيَوْمَيْنِ فِي سُوخَارَ، غَادَرَهَا يَسُوعُ وَسَافَرَ إِلَى مِنْطَقَةِ الْجَلِيلِ،٤٣
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
وَهُوَ نَفْسُهُ كَانَ قَدْ شَهِدَ قَائِلاً: «لا كَرَامَةَ لِنَبِيٍّ فِي وَطَنِهِ!»٤٤
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
فَلَمَّا وَصَلَ إِلَى الْجَلِيلِ رَحَّبَ بِهِ أَهْلُهَا، وَكَانُوا قَد رَأَوْا كُلَّ مَا فَعَلَهُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي أَثْنَاءِ عِيدِ الْفِصْحِ، إِذْ ذَهَبُوا هُمْ أَيْضاً إِلَى الْعِيدِ.٤٥
46 He came therefore again unto Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
وَوَصَلَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى قَانَا بِالْجَلِيلِ، حَيْثُ كَانَ قَدْ حَوَّلَ الْمَاءَ إِلَى خَمْرٍ. وَكَانَ فِي كَفْرَنَاحُومَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ حَاشِيَةِ الْمَلِكِ، لَهُ ابْنٌ مَرِيضٌ.٤٦
47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought [him] that he would come down, and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ تَرَكَ الْيَهُودِيَّةَ وَجَاءَ إِلَى الْجَلِيلِ، ذَهَبَ إِلَيْهِ وَطَلَبَ مِنْهُ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ مَعَهُ إِلَى كَفْرَنَاحُومَ لِيَشْفِيَ ابْنَهُ الْمُشْرِفَ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ.٤٧
48 Jesus therefore said unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will in no wise believe.
فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ: «لا تُؤْمِنُونَ إِلّا إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الآيَاتِ وَالْعَجَائِبَ!»٤٨
49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
فَتَوَسَّلَ إِلَيْهِ الرَّجُلُ وَقَالَ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، انْزِلْ مَعِي قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمُوتَ ابْنِي!»٤٩
50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. The man believed the word that Jesus spake unto him, and he went his way.
أَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «اذْهَبْ! إِنَّ ابْنَكَ حَيٌّ!» فَآمَنَ الرَّجُلُ بِكَلِمَةِ يَسُوعَ الَّتِي قَالَهَا لَهُ، وَانْصَرَفَ.٥٠
51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, saying, that his son lived.
وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَ نَازِلاً فِي الطَّرِيقِ لاقَاهُ بَعْضُ عَبِيدِهِ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِأَنَّ ابْنَهُ حَيٌّ،٥١
52 So he inquired of them the hour when he began to amend. They said therefore unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
فَسَأَلَهُمْ فِي أَيَّةِ سَاعَةٍ تَعَافَى، أَجَابُوهُ: «فِي السَّاعَةِ السَّابِعَةِ مَسَاءَ الْبَارِحَةِ، وَلَّتْ عَنْهُ الْحُمَّى».٥٢
53 So the father knew that [it was] at that hour in which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.
فَعَلِمَ الأَبُ أَنَّهَا السَّاعَةُ الَّتِي قَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ فِيهَا: «إِنَّ ابْنَكَ حَيٌّ». فَآمَنَ هُوَ وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِهِ جَمِيعاً.٥٣
54 This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judaea into Galilee.
هذِهِ الْمُعْجِزَةُ هِيَ الآيَةُ الثَّانِيَةُ الَّتِي أَجْرَاهَا يَسُوعُ بَعْدَ خُرُوجِهِ مِنَ الْيَهُودِيَّةِ إِلَى الْجَلِيلِ.٥٤
