< John 5 >

1 After these things, was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up unto Jerusalem.
وَبَعْدَ ذلِكَ صَعِدَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي أَحَدِ الأَعْيَادِ الْيَهُودِيَّةِ،١
2 Now there is in Jerusalem, at the Sheep-gate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethzatha, —having, five porches.
وَكَانَ بِالْقُرْبِ مِنْ بَابِ الْغَنَمِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ بِرْكَةٌ اسْمُهَا بِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ بَيْتُ حِسْدَا، حَوْلَهَا خَمْسُ قَاعَاتٍ.٢
3 In these, was lying a throng of them who were sick, —blind, lame, withered.
يَرْقُدُ فِيهَا جَمْعٌ كَبِيرٌ مِنَ الْمَرْضَى مِنْ عُمْيَانٍ وَعُرْجٍ وَمَشْلُولِينَ، يَنْتَظِرُونَ أَنْ تَتَحَرَّكَ مِيَاهُ الْبِرْكَةِ،٣
4
لأَنَّ مَلاكاً كَانَ يَأْتِي مِنْ حِينٍ لِآخَرَ إِلَى الْبِرْكَةِ وَيُحَرِّكُ مَاءَهَا، فَكَانَ الَّذِي يَنْزِلُ أَوَّلاً يُشْفَى، مَهْمَا كَانَ مَرَضُهُ.٤
5 And there was a certain man there, who, for thirty-eight years, had continued in his sickness.
وَكَانَ عِنْدَ الْبِرْكَةِ مَرِيضٌ مُنْذُ ثَمَانٍ وَثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً،٥
6 Jesus, seeing, this one, lying, and taking note that now, a long time, had he continued, saith unto him—Desirest thou to be made, well?
رَآهُ يَسُوعُ رَاقِداً هُنَاكَ فَعَرَفَ أَنَّ مُدَّةً طَوِيلَةً انْقَضَتْ وَهُوَ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ، فَسَأَلَهُ: «أَتُرِيدُ أَنْ تُشْفَى؟»٦
7 The sick man answered him—Sir! I have, no man, that, as soon as the water hath been troubled, might thrust me into the pool; but, while, I, am coming, another, before me, goeth down.
فَأَجَابَهُ الْمَرِيضُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، لَيْسَ لِي إِنْسَانٌ يُلْقِينِي فِي الْبِرْكَةِ مَتَى تَحَرَّكَ الْمَاءُ. وَكَمْ مِنْ مَرَّةٍ حَاوَلْتُ النُّزُولَ، فَكَانَ غَيْرِي يَنْزِلُ قَبْلِي دَائِماً».٧
8 Jesus saith unto him—Rise! take up thy couch, and be walking.
فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «قُمِ احْمِلْ فِرَاشَكَ وَامْشِ».٨
9 And, straightway, the man was made well and took up his couch, and began to walk. Now it was Sabbath, on that day.
وَفِي الْحَالِ شُفِيَ الرَّجُلُ وَحَمَلَ فِرَاشَهُ وَمَشَى. وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ يَوْمَ سَبْتٍ.٩
10 The Jews, therefore, were saying, unto him who had been cured—It is, Sabbath; and it is not allowable for thee to take up thy couch: —
فَقَالَ الْيَهُودُ لِلرَّجُلِ الَّذِي شُفِيَ: «الْيَوْمَ سَبْتٌ. لَا يَحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَحْمِلَ فِرَاشَكَ!»١٠
11 who, however, answered them—He that made me well, he, unto me, said—Take up thy couch, and be walking.
فَأَجَابَهُمْ: «الَّذِي أَعَادَ إِلَيَّ الصِّحَّةَ هُوَ قَالَ لِي: احْمِلْ فِرَاشَكَ وَامْشِ».١١
12 They questioned him—Who is the man that said unto thee, Take up [thy couch], and be walking?
فَسَأَلُوهُ: «وَمَنْ هُوَ الَّذِي قَالَ لَكَ: احْمِلْ فِرَاشَكَ وَامْشِ؟»١٢
13 But, the healed one, knew not, who, it was; for, Jesus, had turned aside, a multitude, being in the place.
وَلكِنَّ الْمَرِيضَ الَّذِي شُفِيَ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَعْرِفُ مَنْ هُوَ، لأَنَّ يَسُوعَ كَانَ قَدِ ابْتَعَدَ، إِذْ كَانَ فِي الْمَكَانِ جَمْعٌ.١٣
14 After these things, Jesus findeth him, in the temple, and said unto him—See! thou hast become, well: —No more, be committing sin, lest, some worse thing, do thee befall.
وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَجَدَهُ يَسُوعُ فِي الْهَيْكَلِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «هَا أَنْتَ قَدْ عُدْتَ صَحِيحاً فَلا تَرْجِعْ إِلَى الْخَطِيئَةِ لِئَلّا يُصِيبَكَ مَا هُوَ أَسْوَأُ!»١٤
15 The man went away, and told the Jews, that it was, Jesus, who had made him well.
فَلَمَّا عَرَفَ الرَّجُلُ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ هُوَ الَّذِي شَفَاهُ، أَسْرَعَ يُخْبِرُ الْيَهُودَ بِذلِكَ.١٥
16 And, on this account, were the Jews persecuting Jesus, because, these things, he had been doing, on Sabbath.
فَأَخَذَ الْيَهُودُ يُضَايِقُونَ يَسُوعَ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَعْمَلُ هذِهِ الأَعْمَالَ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ.١٦
17 But, he, answered them—My Father, until even now, is working; and, I, am working.
وَلكِنَّ يَسُوعَ قَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَازَالَ أَبِي يَعْمَلُ إِلَى الآنَ. وَأَنَا أَيْضاً أَعْمَلُ!»١٧
18 On this account, therefore, the rather, were the Jews seeking to slay him, —because, not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but was calling God, his own Father, making, himself, equal, with, God.
لِهَذَا ازْدَادَ سَعْيُ الْيَهُودِ إِلَى قَتْلِهِ، لَيْسَ فَقَطْ لأَنَّهُ خَالَفَ سُنَّةَ السَّبْتِ، بَلْ أَيْضاً لأَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ أَبُوهُ، مُسَاوِياً نَفْسَهُ بِاللهِ.١٨
19 Jesus, therefore, answered, and went on to say unto them—Verily, verily, I say unto you: The Son cannot be doing, of himself, a single thing, —save anything he may see, the Father, doing; for, whatsoever, he, may be doing, these things, the Son also, in like manner, doeth.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ إِنَّ الاِبْنَ لَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ شَيْئاً مِنْ تِلْقَاءِ نَفْسِهِ، بَلْ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَرَى الآبَ يَفْعَلُهُ. فَكُلُّ مَا يَعْمَلُهُ الآبُ، يَعْمَلُهُ الاِبْنُ كَذلِكَ،١٩
20 For, the Father, dearly loveth the Son, and, all things, pointeth out to him, which, himself, is doing; and, greater works than these, will he point out to him, that, ye, may marvel.
لأَنَّ الآبَ يُحِبُّ الاِبْنَ، وَيُرِيهِ جَمِيعَ مَا يَفْعَلُهُ، وَسَيُرِيهِ أَيْضاً أَعْمَالاً أَعْظَمَ مِنْ هَذَا الْعَمَلِ، فَتُدْهَشُونَ.٢٠
21 For, just as the Father waketh up the dead, and quickeneth them, in like manner, the Son also, whom he pleaseth, doth quicken.
فَكَمَا يُقِيمُ الآبُ الْمَوْتَى وَيُحْيِيهِمْ، كَذلِكَ يُحْيِي الاِبْنُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ.٢١
22 For neither doth, the Father, judge anyone, —but, all the judging, hath given unto the Son:
وَالآبُ لَا يُحَاكِمُ أَحَداً، بَلْ أَعْطَى الاِبْنَ سُلْطَةَ الْقَضَاءِ كُلَّهَا،٢٢
23 That, all, may honour the Son, just as they honour the Father: he that doth not honour the Son, doth not, in fact, honour the Father who sent him.
لِيُكْرِمَ الْجَمِيعُ الاِبْنَ كَمَا يُكْرِمُونَ الآبَ. وَمَنْ لَا يُكْرِمِ الاِبْنَ لَا يُكْرِمِ الآبَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَهُ.٢٣
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you: He that heareth, my word, and believeth in him that sent me, hath life age-abiding, and, into judgment, cometh not, but hath passed over, out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)
الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ إِنَّ مَنْ يَسْمَعْ كَلامِي وَيُؤْمِنْ بِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي تَكُنْ لَهُ الْحَيَاةُ الأَبَدِيَّةُ، وَلا يُحَاكَمْ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ، لأَنَّهُ قَدِ انْتَقَلَ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ إِلَى الْحَيَاةِ. (aiōnios g166)٢٤
25 Verily, verily, I say unto you: There cometh an hour, and now is, when, the dead, shall hearken unto the voice of the Son of God, and, they who have hearkened, shall live.
الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ السَّاعَةَ الَّتِي يَسْمَعُ فِيهَا الأَمْوَاتُ صَوْتَ ابْنِ اللهِ سَتَأْتِي بَلْ هِيَ الآنَ وَالَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَهُ يَحْيَوْنَ.٢٥
26 For, just as, the Father, hath life, in himself, in like manner, unto the Son also, hath he given, life, to have, in himself;
لأَنَّهُ كَمَا أَنَّ لِلآبِ حَيَاةً فِي ذَاتِهِ، فَقَدْ أَعْطَى الاِبْنَ أَيْضاً أَنْ تَكُونَ لَهُ حَيَاةٌ فِي ذَاتِهِ،٢٦
27 And, authority, hath he given him, to be executing, judgment, —because, Son of Man, is he!
وَأَعْطَاهُ سُلْطَةً أَنْ يَدِينَ، لأَنَّهُ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ.٢٧
28 Do not be marvelling at this: because there come an hour, in which, all they in the tombs, shall hearken unto his voice,
لَا تَتَعَجَّبُوا مِنْ هَذَا: فَسَوْفَ تَأْتِي سَاعَةٌ يَسْمَعُ فِيهَا جَمِيعُ مَنْ فِي الْقُبُورِ صَوْتَهُ،٢٨
29 and shall come forth, —they who, the good things, have done, unto a resurrection, of life; but, they who the corrupt things, have practised, unto a resurrection, of judgment.
فَيَخْرُجُونَ مِنْهَا: فَالَّذِينَ عَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ يَخْرُجُونَ فِي الْقِيَامَةِ الْمُؤَدِّيَةِ إِلَى الْحَيَاةِ، وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ عَمِلُوا السَّيِّئَاتِ فَفِي الْقِيَامَةِ الْمُؤَدِّيَةِ إِلَى الدَّيْنُونَةِ.٢٩
30 I, cannot be doing, of myself, a single thing, —Just as I hear, I judge; and, my judging, is, just, —because I seek not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
وَأَنَا لَا يُمْكِنُ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ شَيْئاً مِنْ تِلْقَاءِ ذَاتِي، بَلْ أَحْكُمُ حَسْبَمَا أَسْمَعُ، وَحُكْمِي عَادِلٌ، لأَنِّي لَا أَسْعَى لِتَحْقِيقِ إِرَادَتِي بَلْ إِرَادَةِ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي.٣٠
31 If, I, bear witness, concerning myself, my witness, is not, true.
لَوْ كُنْتُ أَشْهَدُ لِنَفْسِي، لَكَانَتْ شَهَادَتِي غَيْرَ صَادِقَةٍ،٣١
32 Another, it is, who beareth witness concerning me, —and I know that, true, is the witness which he witnesseth concerning me.
وَلكِنْ غَيْرِي يَشْهَدُ لِي، وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ شَهَادَتَهُ لِي هِيَ حَقٌّ.٣٢
33 Ye, have sent forth unto John, —and he hath borne witness to the truth: —
وَقَدْ بَعَثْتُمْ رُسُلاً إِلَى يُوحَنَّا فَشَهِدَ لِلْحَقِّ.٣٣
34 I, however, not from man, my witness, receive; but, these things, I say, that, ye, may be saved: —
وَأَنَا أَقُولُ هَذَا لَا لأَنِّي أَعْتَمِدُ عَلَى شَهَادَةِ إِنْسَانٍ، بَلْ مِنْ أَجْلِ خَلاصِكُمْ،٣٤
35 He, was the burning and shining lamp, and, ye, were willing to exult, for an hour, in his light.
فَقَدْ كَانَ يُوحَنَّا مِصْبَاحاً مُتَوَهِّجاً مُضِيئاً، وَشِئْتُمْ أَنْ تَسْتَمْتِعُوا بِنُورِهِ فَتْرَةً مِنَ الزَّمَنِ.٣٥
36 But, I, have, as my witness, something greater than John’s; for, the works which the Father hath given me, that I should complete them, —the works themselves which I am doing, bear witness concerning me, that, the Father, hath sent me.
وَلكِنَّ لِي شَهَادَةً أَعْظَمَ مِنْ شَهَادَةِ يُوحَنَّا، وَهِيَ شَهَادَةُ الأَعْمَالِ الَّتِي كَلَّفَنِي الآبُ أَنْ أُنْجِزَهَا وَالَّتِي أَعْمَلُهَا، فَهِيَ تَشْهَدُ لِي مُبَيِّنَةً أَنَّ الآبَ أَرْسَلَنِي،٣٦
37 And so, the Father who sent me, he, hath borne witness concerning me; Neither, a sound of him, at any time, have ye heard, nor, a form of him, have ye seen;
وَالآبُ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي هُوَ نَفْسُهُ أَيْضاً يَشْهَدُ لِي. وَأَنْتُمْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا صَوْتَهُ قَطُّ، وَلا رَأَيْتُمْ هَيْئَتَهُ،٣٧
38 And, his word, ye have not, within you abiding—because, as touching him whom, he, sent, in him, ye, believe not.
وَلا ثَبَتَتْ كَلِمَتُهُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ، بِدَلِيلِ أَنَّكُمْ لَا تُصَدِّقُونَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَهُ.٣٨
39 Ye search the Scriptures, because, ye, think, by them, to have, life age-abiding; and, those [Scriptures], are they which bear witness concerning me: (aiōnios g166)
أَنْتُمْ تَدْرُسُونَ الْكُتُبَ لأَنَّكُمْ تَعْتَقِدُونَ أَنَّهَا سَتَهْدِيكُمْ إِلَى الْحَيَاةِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ. هذِهِ الْكُتُبُ تَشْهَدُ لِي، (aiōnios g166)٣٩
40 And yet ye choose not to come unto me, that, life, ye may have.
وَلكِنَّكُمْ تَرْفُضُونَ أَنْ تَأْتُوا إِلَيَّ لِتَكُونَ لَكُمُ الْحَيَاةُ.٤٠
41 Glory from men, am I not receiving; —
لَسْتُ أَقْبَلُ مَجْداً مِنْ عِنْدِ النَّاسِ.٤١
42 But I have taken knowledge of you, that, the love of God, ye have not, in yourselves: —
وَلكِنِّي أَعْرِفُكُمْ، وَأَعْرِفُ أَنَّ مَحَبَّةَ اللهِ لَيْسَتْ فِي نُفُوسِكُمْ.٤٢
43 I, have come, in the name of my Father, —and ye are not receiving me: If, another, shall come in his own name, him, ye will receive!
فَقَدْ جِئْتُ بِاسْمِ أَبِي وَلَمْ تَقْبَلُونِي، وَلكِنَّكُمْ تُرَحِّبُونَ بِمَنْ يَجِيءُ بِاسْمِ نَفْسِهِ.٤٣
44 How can, ye, believe, —Glory from one another, receiving; and, the glory which is from the only God, are not seeking?
مِنْ أَيْنَ لَكُمْ أَنْ تُؤْمِنُوا بِي وَأَنْتُمْ تَقْبَلُونَ الْمَجْدَ بَعْضُكُمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ، دُونَ أَنْ تَسْعَوْا فِي طَلَبِ الْمَجْدِ الَّذِي لَا يَمْنَحُهُ إِلّا اللهُ!٤٤
45 Do not think that, I, will accuse you unto the Father: There, is, who accuseth you, even, Moses, —on whom, ye, have set your hope.
لَا تَظُنُّوا أَنِّي أَشْكُوكُمْ إِلَى الآبِ، فَإِنَّ هُنَالِكَ مَنْ يَشْكُوكُمْ، وَهُوَ مُوسَى الَّذِي عَلَّقْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ رَجَاءَكُمْ.٤٥
46 For, if ye had been believing, in Moses, ye would, in that case, have been believing, in me: for, concerning me, he wrote.
فَلَوْ كُنْتُمْ صَدَّقْتُمْ مُوسَى، لَكُنْتُمْ صَدَّقْتُمُونِي، لأَنَّهُ هُوَ كَتَبَ عَنِّي.٤٦
47 But, if, in his writings, ye are not believing, how, in my sayings, will ye believe?
وَإذَا كُنْتُمْ لَا تُصَدِّقُونَ مَا كَتَبَهُ مُوسَى، فَكَيْفَ تُصَدِّقُونَ كَلامِي؟»٤٧
