< 1 Thessalonians 4 >

1 Finally, brothers, we encourage and exhort you in the Lord Jesus. As you received instructions from us about how you must walk and please God, also in this way walk, so that you do so even more.
فَمِنْ ثَمَّ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ نَسْأَلُكُمْ وَنَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ، أَنَّكُمْ كَمَا تَسَلَّمْتُمْ مِنَّا كَيْفَ يَجِبُ أَنْ تَسْلُكُوا وَتُرْضُوا ٱللهَ، تَزْدَادُونَ أَكْثَرَ.١
2 For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
لِأَنَّكُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَيَّةَ وَصَايَا أَعْطَيْنَاكُمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ.٢
3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification, that you avoid sexual immorality,
لِأَنَّ هَذِهِ هِيَ إِرَادَةُ ٱللهِ: قَدَاسَتُكُمْ. أَنْ تَمْتَنِعُوا عَنِ ٱلزِّنَا،٣
4 that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in holiness and honor,
أَنْ يَعْرِفَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَقْتَنِيَ إِنَاءَهُ بِقَدَاسَةٍ وَكَرَامَةٍ،٤
5 not in the passion of lust (as the Gentiles who do not know God).
لَا فِي هَوَى شَهْوَةٍ كَٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ ٱللهَ،٥
6 Let no man transgress and wrong his brother in this matter. For the Lord is an avenger in all these things, just as we forewarned you and testified.
أَنْ لَا يَتَطَاوَلَ أَحَدٌ وَيَطْمَعَ عَلَى أَخِيهِ فِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مُنْتَقِمٌ لِهَذِهِ كُلِّهَا كَمَا قُلْنَا لَكُمْ قَبْلًا وَشَهِدْنَا.٦
7 For God did not call us to uncleanness, but to holiness.
لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ لَمْ يَدْعُنَا لِلنَّجَاسَةِ بَلْ فِي ٱلْقَدَاسَةِ.٧
8 Therefore, he who rejects this rejects not people, but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
إِذًا مَنْ يُرْذِلُ لَا يُرْذِلُ إِنْسَانًا، بَلِ ٱللهَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَانَا أَيْضًا رُوحَهُ ٱلْقُدُّوسَ.٨
9 Regarding brotherly love, you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another.
وَأَمَّا ٱلْمَحَبَّةُ ٱلْأَخَوِيَّةُ فَلَا حَاجَةَ لَكُمْ أَنْ أَكْتُبَ إِلَيْكُمْ عَنْهَا، لِأَنَّكُمْ أَنْفُسَكُمْ مُتَعَلِّمُونَ مِنَ ٱللهِ أَنْ يُحِبَّ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا.٩
10 Indeed, you do this for all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, to do this even more.
فَإِنَّكُمْ تَفْعَلُونَ ذَلِكَ أَيْضًا لِجَمِيعِ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي مَكِدُونِيَّةَ كُلِّهَا. وَإِنَّمَا أَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنْ تَزْدَادُوا أَكْثَرَ،١٠
11 We also exhort you to aspire to live quietly, take care of your own responsibilities, and work with your hands, just as we commanded you,
وَأَنْ تَحْرِصُوا عَلَى أَنْ تَكُونُوا هَادِئِينَ، وَتُمَارِسُوا أُمُورَكُمُ ٱلْخَاصَّةَ، وَتَشْتَغِلُوا بِأَيْدِيكُمْ أَنْتُمْ كَمَا أَوْصَيْنَاكُمْ،١١
12 so that you may walk properly before outsiders and not be in any need.
لِكَيْ تَسْلُكُوا بِلِيَاقَةٍ عِنْدَ ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنْ خَارِجٍ، وَلَا تَكُونَ لَكُمْ حَاجَةٌ إِلَى أَحَدٍ.١٢
13 We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who sleep, so that you do not grieve like the rest who do not have hope.
ثُمَّ لَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَجْهَلُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلرَّاقِدِينَ، لِكَيْ لَا تَحْزَنُوا كَٱلْبَاقِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا رَجَاءَ لَهُمْ.١٣
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
لِأَنَّهُ إِنْ كُنَّا نُؤْمِنُ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ مَاتَ وَقَامَ، فَكَذَلِكَ ٱلرَّاقِدُونَ بِيَسُوعَ، سَيُحْضِرُهُمُ ٱللهُ أَيْضًا مَعَهُ.١٤
15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left at the coming of the Lord, will surely not go before those who have fallen asleep.
فَإِنَّنَا نَقُولُ لَكُمْ هَذَا بِكَلِمَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ: إِنَّنَا نَحْنُ ٱلْأَحْيَاءَ ٱلْبَاقِينَ إِلَى مَجِيءِ ٱلرَّبِّ، لَا نَسْبِقُ ٱلرَّاقِدِينَ.١٥
16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven. He will come with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ نَفْسَهُ بِهُتَافٍ، بِصَوْتِ رَئِيسِ مَلَائِكَةٍ وَبُوقِ ٱللهِ، سَوْفَ يَنْزِلُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَٱلْأَمْوَاتُ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ سَيَقُومُونَ أَوَّلًا.١٦
17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will together with them be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. In this way we will always be with the Lord.
ثُمَّ نَحْنُ ٱلْأَحْيَاءَ ٱلْبَاقِينَ سَنُخْطَفُ جَمِيعًا مَعَهُمْ فِي ٱلسُّحُبِ لِمُلَاقَاةِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ٱلْهَوَاءِ، وَهَكَذَا نَكُونُ كُلَّ حِينٍ مَعَ ٱلرَّبِّ.١٧
18 Therefore, comfort one another with these words.
لِذَلِكَ عَزُّوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ.١٨
