Vangelo secondo Matteo (متى) 21

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 ولما قربوا من اورشليم وجاءوا الى بيت فاجي عند جبل الزيتون حينئذ ارسل يسوع تلميذين	1 When they drew near Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,
2 قائلا لهما. اذهبا الى القرية التي امامكما فللوقت تجدان اتانا مربوطة وجحشا معها فحلاهما وأتياني بهما.	2 saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find an ass tethered, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them here to me.
3 وان قال لكما احد شيئا فقولا الرب محتاج اليهما. فللوقت يرسلهما.	3 And if anyone should say anything to you, reply, 'The master has need of them.' Then he will send them at once."
4 فكان هذا كله لكي يتم ما قيل بالنبي القائل	4 This happened so that what had been spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled:
5 قولوا لابنة صهيون هوذا ملكك يأتيك وديعا راكبا على اتان وجحش ابن اتان.	5 "Say to daughter Zion, 'Behold, your king comes to you, meek and riding on an ass, and on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.'"
6 فذهب التلميذان وفعلا كما امرهما يسوع.	6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had ordered them.
7 وأتيا بالاتان والجحش ووضعا عليهما ثيابهما فجلس عليهما.	7 They brought the ass and the colt and laid their cloaks over them, and he sat upon them.
8 والجمع الاكثر فرشوا ثيابهم في الطريق. وآخرون قطعوا اغصانا من الشجر وفرشوها في الطريق.	8 The very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and strewed them on the road.
9 والجموع الذين تقدموا والذين تبعوا كانوا يصرخون قائلين أوصنا لابن داود. مبارك الآتي باسم الرب. أوصنا في الاعالي.	9 The crowds preceding him and those following kept crying out and saying: "Hosanna to the Son of David; blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord; hosanna in the highest."
10 ولما دخل اورشليم ارتجّت المدينة كلها قائلة من هذا.	10 And when he entered Jerusalem the whole city was shaken and asked, "Who is this?"
11 فقالت الجموع هذا يسوع النبي الذي من ناصرة الجليل	11 And the crowds replied, "This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee."
12 ودخل يسوع الى هيكل الله واخرج جميع الذين كانوا يبيعون ويشترون في الهيكل وقلب موائد الصيارفة وكراسي باعة الحمام	12 Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all those engaged in selling and buying there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves.
13 وقال لهم. مكتوب بيتي بيت الصلاة يدعى وانتم جعلتموه مغارة لصوص.	13 And he said to them, "It is written: 'My house shall be a house of prayer,' but you are making it a den of thieves."
14 وتقدم اليه عمي وعرج في الهيكل فشفاهم.	14 The blind and the lame approached him in the temple area, and he cured them.
15 فلما رأى رؤساء الكهنة والكتبة العجائب التي صنع والاولاد يصرخون في الهيكل ويقولون أوصنا لابن داود غضبوا	15 When the chief priests and the scribes saw the wondrous things he was doing, and the children crying out in the temple area, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they were indignant
16 وقالوا له أتسمع ما يقول هؤلاء. فقال لهم يسوع نعم. أما قرأتم قط من افواه الاطفال والرضّع هيأت تسبيحا.	16 and said to him, "Do you hear what they are saying?" Jesus said to them, "Yes; and have you never read the text, 'Out of the mouths of infants and nurslings you have brought forth praise'?"
17 ثم تركهم وخرج خارج المدينة الى بيت عنيا وبات هناك	17 And leaving them, he went out of the city to Bethany, and there he spent the night.
18 وفي الصبح اذ كان راجعا الى المدينة جاع.	18 When he was going back to the city in the morning, he was hungry.
19 فنظر شجرة تين على الطريق وجاء اليها فلم يجد فيها شيئا الا ورقا فقط. فقال لها لا يكون منك ثمر بعد الى الابد. فيبست التينة في الحال.	19 Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went over to it, but found nothing on it except leaves. And he said to it, "May no fruit ever come from you again." And immediately the fig tree withered.
20 فلما رأى التلاميذ ذلك تعجبوا قائلين كيف يبست التينة في الحال.	20 When the disciples saw this, they were amazed and said, "How was it that the fig tree withered immediately?"
21 فاجاب يسوع وقال لهم. الحق اقول لكم ان كان لكم ايمان ولا تشكّون فلا تفعلون امر التينة فقط بل ان قلتم ايضا لهذا الجبل انتقل وانطرح في البحر فيكون.	21 Jesus said to them in reply, "Amen, I say to you, if you have faith and do not waver, not only will you do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' it will be done.
22 وكل ما تطلبونه في الصلاة مؤمنين تنالونه	22 Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive."
23 ولما جاء الى الهيكل تقدم اليه رؤساء الكهنة وشيوخ الشعب وهو يعلّم قائلين بأي سلطان تفعل هذا ومن اعطاك هذا السلطان.	23 When he had come into the temple area, the chief priests and the elders of the people approached him as he was teaching and said, "By what authority are you doing these things? And who gave you this authority?"
24 فاجاب يسوع وقال لهم وانا ايضا اسألكم كلمة واحدة فان قلتم لي عنها اقول لكم انا ايضا بأي سلطان افعل هذا.	24 Jesus said to them in reply, "I shall ask you one question, and if you answer it for me, then I shall tell you by what authority I do these things.
25 معمودية يوحنا من اين كانت. من السماء أم من الناس. ففكروا في انفسهم قائلين ان قلنا من السماء يقول لنا فلماذا لم تؤمنوا به.	25 Where was John's baptism from? Was it of heavenly or of human origin?" They discussed this among themselves and said, "If we say 'Of heavenly origin,' he will say to us, 'Then why did you not believe him?'
26 وان قلنا من الناس نخاف من الشعب. لان يوحنا عند الجميع مثل نبي.	26 But if we say, 'Of human origin,' we fear the crowd, for they all regard John as a prophet."
27 فاجابوا يسوع وقالوا لا نعلم. فقال لهم هو ايضا ولا انا اقول لكم باي سلطان افعل هذا	27 So they said to Jesus in reply, "We do not know." He himself said to them, "Neither shall I tell you by what authority I do these things.
28 ماذا تظنون. كان لانسان ابنان فجاء الى الاول وقال يا ابني اذهب اليوم اعمل في كرمي.	28 "What is your opinion? A man had two sons. He came to the first and said, 'Son, go out and work in the vineyard today.'
29 فاجاب وقال ما اريد. ولكنه ندم اخيرا ومضى.	29 He said in reply, 'I will not,' but afterwards he changed his mind and went.
30 وجاء الى الثاني وقال كذلك. فاجاب وقال ها انا يا سيد. ولم يمض.	30 The man came to the other son and gave the same order. He said in reply, 'Yes, sir,' but did not go.
31 فأي الاثنين عمل ارادة الاب. قالوا له الاول. قال لهم يسوع الحق اقول لكم ان العشارين والزواني يسبقونكم الى ملكوت الله.	31 Which of the two did his father's will?" They answered, "The first." Jesus said to them, "Amen, I say to you, tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God before you.
32 لان يوحنا جاءكم في طريق الحق فلم تؤمنوا به. واما العشارون والزواني فآمنوا به. وانتم اذ رأيتم لم تندموا اخيرا لتؤمنوا به	32 When John came to you in the way of righteousness, you did not believe him; but tax collectors and prostitutes did. Yet even when you saw that, you did not later change your minds and believe him.
33 اسمعوا مثلا آخر. كان انسان رب بيت غرس كرما واحاطه بسياج وحفر فيه معصرة وبنى برجا وسلمه الى كرامين وسافر.	33 "Hear another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a wine press in it, and built a tower. Then he leased it to tenants and went on a journey.
34 ولما قرب وقت الاثمار ارسل عبيده الى الكرامين لياخذ اثماره.	34 When vintage time drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants to obtain his produce.
35 فاخذ الكرامون عبيده وجلدوا بعضا وقتلوا بعضا ورجموا بعضا.	35 But the tenants seized the servants and one they beat, another they killed, and a third they stoned.
36 ثم ارسل ايضا عبيدا آخرين اكثر من الاولين. ففعلوا بهم كذلك.	36 Again he sent other servants, more numerous than the first ones, but they treated them in the same way.
37 فاخيرا ارسل اليهم ابنه قائلا يهابون ابني.	37 Finally, he sent his son to them, thinking, 'They will respect my son.'
38 واما الكرامون فلما رأوا الابن قالوا فيما بينهم هذا هو الوارث هلموا نقتله وناخذ ميراثه.	38 But when the tenants saw the son, they said to one another, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and acquire his inheritance.'
39 فأخذوه واخرجوه خارج الكرم وقتلوه.	39 They seized him, threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
40 فمتى جاء صاحب الكرم ماذا يفعل بأولئك الكرامين.	40 What will the owner of the vineyard do to those tenants when he comes?"
41 قالوا له. أولئك الاردياء يهلكهم هلاكا رديّا ويسلم الكرم الى كرامين آخرين يعطونه الاثمار في اوقاتها.	41 They answered him, "He will put those wretched men to a wretched death and lease his vineyard to other tenants who will give him the produce at the proper times."
42 قال لهم يسوع أما قرأتم قط في الكتب. الحجر الذي رفضه البناؤون هو قد صار راس الزاوية. من قبل الرب كان هذا وهو عجيب في اعيننا.	42 Jesus said to them, "Did you never read in the scriptures: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; by the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes'?
43 لذلك اقول لكم ان ملكوت الله ينزع منكم ويعطى لأمة تعمل اثماره.	43 Therefore, I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that will produce its fruit.
44 ومن سقط على هذا الحجر يترضض ومن سقط هو عليه يسحقه	44 ( The one who falls on this stone will be dashed to pieces; and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.)"
45 ولما سمع رؤساء الكهنة والفريسيون امثاله عرفوا انه تكلم عليهم.	45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they knew that he was speaking about them.
46 واذ كانوا يطلبون ان يمسكوه خافوا من الجموع لانه كان عندهم مثل نبي	46 And although they were attempting to arrest him, they feared the crowds, for they regarded him as a prophet.
