Acts of the Apostles 11

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 And the apostles and brethren, who were in Judea, heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.	1 فسمع الرسل والاخوة الذين كانوا في اليهودية ان الامم ايضا قبلوا‏ كلمة الله‎.
2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,	2 ‎ولما صعد بطرس الى اورشليم خاصمه الذين من اهل الختان
3 Saying: Why didst thou go in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them?	3 قائلين انك دخلت الى رجال ذوي غلفة واكلت معهم‎.
4 But Peter began and declared to them the matter in order, saying:	4 ‎فابتدأ بطرس يشرح لهم بالتتابع قائلا‎.
5 I was in the city of Joppe praying, and I saw in an ecstasy of mind a vision, a certain vessel descending, as it were a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners, and it came even unto me.	5 ‎انا كنت في مدينة يافا اصلّي فرأيت في غيبة رؤيا اناء نازلا مثل ملاءة عظيمة مدلاة باربعة اطراف من السماء فأتى اليّ‎.
6 Into which looking, I considered, and saw fourfooted creatures of the earth, and beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air:	6 ‎فتفرست فيه متأملا فرأيت دواب الارض والوحوش والزحافات وطيور السماء‎.
7 And I heard also a voice saying to me: Arise, Peter; kill and eat.	7 ‎وسمعت صوتا قائلا لي قم يا بطرس اذبح وكل‎.
8 And I said: Not so, Lord; for nothing common or unclean hath ever entered into my mouth.	8 ‎فقلت كلا يا رب لانه لم يدخل فمي قط دنس او نجس‎.
9 And the voice answered again from heaven: What God hath made clean, do not thou call common.	9 ‎فاجابني صوت ثانية من السماء ما طهره الله لا تنجسه انت‎.
10 And this was done three times: and all were taken up again into heaven.	10 ‎وكان هذا على ثلاث مرات ثم انتشل الجميع الى السماء ايضا‎.
11 And behold, immediately there were three men come to the house wherein I was, sent to me from Caesarea.	11 ‎واذا ثلاثة رجال قد وقفوا للوقت عند البيت الذي كنت فيه مرسلين اليّ من قيصرية‎.
12 And the Spirit said to me, that I should go with them, nothing doubting. And these six brethren went with me also: and we entered into the man's house.	12 ‎فقال لي الروح ان اذهب معهم غير مرتاب في شيء. وذهب معي ايضا هؤلاء الاخوة الستة. فدخلنا بيت الرجل‎.
13 And he told us how he had seen an angel in his house, standing, and saying to him: Send to Joppe, and call hither Simon, who is surnamed Peter,	13 ‎فاخبرنا كيف رأى الملاك في بيته قائما وقائلا له ارسل الى يافا رجالا واستدع سمعان الملقب بطرس‎.
14 Who shall speak to thee words, whereby thou shalt be saved, and all thy house.	14 ‎وهو يكلمك كلاما به تخلص انت وكل بيتك‎.
15 And when I had begun to speak, the Holy Ghost fell upon them, as upon us also in the beginning.	15 ‎فلما ابتدأت اتكلم حل الروح القدس عليهم كما علينا ايضا في البداءة‎.
16 And I remembered the word of the Lord, how that he said: John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.	16 ‎فتذكرت كلام الرب كيف قال ان يوحنا عمد بماء واما انتم فستعمدون بالروح القدس‎.
17 If then God gave them the same grace, as to us also who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ; who was I, that could withstand God?	17 ‎فان كان الله قد اعطاهم الموهبة كما لنا ايضا بالسوية مؤمنين بالرب يسوع المسيح فمن انا. أقادر ان امنع الله‎.
18 Having heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying: God then hath also to the Gentiles given repentance unto life.	18 ‎فلما سمعوا ذلك سكتوا وكانوا يمجدون الله قائلين اذا اعطى الله الامم ايضا التوبة للحياة
19 Now they who had been dispersed by the persecution that arose on occasion of Stephen, went about as far as Phenice and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to none, but to the Jews only.	19 اما الذين تشتتوا من جراء الضيق الذي حصل بسبب استفانوس فاجتازوا الى فينيقية وقبرس وانطاكية وهم لا يكلمون احدا بالكلمة الا اليهود فقط‎.
20 But some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they were entered into Antioch, spoke also to the Greeks, preaching the Lord Jesus.	20 ‎ولكن كان منهم قوم وهم رجال قبرسيون وقيروانيون الذين لما دخلوا انطاكية كانوا يخاطبون اليونانيين مبشرين بالرب يسوع‎.
21 And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believing, were converted to the Lord.	21 ‎وكانت يد الرب معهم فآمن عدد كثير ورجعوا الى الرب
22 And the tidings came to the ears of the church that was at Jerusalem, touching these things: and they sent Barnabas as far as Antioch.	22 فسمع الخبر عنهم في آذان الكنيسة التي في اورشليم فارسلوا برنابا لكي يجتاز الى انطاكية‎.
23 Who, when he was come, and had seen the grace of God, rejoiced: and he exhorted them all with purpose of heart to continue in the Lord.	23 ‎الذي لما أتى ورأى نعمة الله فرح ووعظ الجميع ان يثبتوا في الرب بعزم القلب‎.
24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith. And a great multitude was added to the Lord.	24 ‎لانه كان رجلا صالحا وممتلئا من الروح القدس والايمان. فانضم الى الرب جمع غفير
25 And Barnabas went to Tarsus to seek Saul: whom, when he had found, he brought to Antioch.	25 ثم خرج برنابا الى طرسوس ليطلب شاول. ولما وجده جاء به الى انطاكية‎.
26 And they conversed there in the church a whole year; and they taught a great multitude, so that at Antioch the disciples were first named Christians.	26 ‎فحدث انهما اجتمعا في الكنيسة سنة كاملة وعلّما جمعا غفيرا ودعي التلاميذ مسيحيين في انطاكية اولا
27 And in these days there came prophets from Jerusalem to Antioch:	27 وفي تلك الايام انحدر انبياء من اورشليم الى انطاكية‎.
28 And one of them named Agabus, rising up, signified by the Spirit, that there should be a great famine over the whole world, which came to pass under Claudius.	28 ‎وقام واحد منهم اسمه اغابوس واشار بالروح ان جوعا عظيما كان عتيدا ان يصير على جميع المسكونة. الذي صار ايضا في ايام كلوديوس قيصر‎.
29 And the disciples, every man according to his ability, purposed to send relief to the brethren who dwelt in Judea:	29 ‎فحتم التلاميذ حسبما تيسّر لكل منهم ان يرسل كل واحد شيئا خدمة الى الاخوة الساكنين في اليهودية‎.
30 Which also they did, sending it to the ancients, by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.	30 ‎ففعلوا ذلك مرسلين الى المشايخ بيد برنابا وشاول
