Vangelo secondo Luca (لوقا) 13

SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 وكان حاضرا في ذلك الوقت قوم يخبرونه عن الجليليين الذين خلط بيلاطس دمهم بذبائحهم.	1 And there were present, at that very time, some who were reporting about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate mixed with their sacrifices.
2 فاجاب يسوع وقال لهم أتظنون ان هؤلاء الجليليين كانوا خطاة اكثر من كل الجليليين لانهم كابدوا مثل هذا.	2 And responding, he said to them: “Do you think that these Galileans must have sinned more than all other Galileans, because they suffered so much?
3 كلا اقول لكم. بل ان لم تتوبوا فجميعكم كذلك تهلكون.	3 No, I tell you. But unless you repent, you will all perish similarly.
4 او اولئك الثمانية عشر الذين سقط عليهم البرج في سلوام وقتلهم أتظنون ان هؤلاء كانوا مذنبين اكثر من جميع الناس الساكنين في اورشليم.	4 And those eighteen upon whom the tower of Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they also were greater transgressors than all the men living in Jerusalem?
5 كلا اقول لكم. بل ان لم تتوبوا فجميعكم كذلك تهلكون	5 No, I tell you. But if you do not repent, you will all perish similarly.”
6 وقال هذا المثل. كانت لواحد شجرة تين مغروسة في كرمه. فأتى يطلب فيها ثمرا ولم يجد.	6 And he also told this parable: “A certain man had a fig tree, which was planted in his vineyard. And he came seeking fruit on it, but found none.
7 فقال للكرام هوذا ثلاثة سنين آتي اطلب ثمرا في هذه التينة ولم اجد. اقطعها. لماذا تبطل الارض ايضا.	7 Then he said to the cultivator of the vineyard: ‘Behold, for these three years I came seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I have found none. Therefore, cut it down. For why should it even occupy the land?’
8 فاجاب وقال له يا سيد اتركها هذه السنة ايضا حتى انقب حولها واضع زبلا.	8 But in response, he said to him: ‘Lord, let it be for this year also, during which time I will dig around it and add fertilizer.
9 فان صنعت ثمرا وإلا ففيما بعد تقطعها	9 And, indeed, it should bear fruit. But if not, in the future, you shall cut it down.’ ”
10 وكان يعلّم في احد المجامع في السبت.	10 Now he was teaching in their synagogue on the Sabbaths.
11 واذا امرأة كان بها روح ضعف ثماني عشرة سنة وكانت منحنية ولم تقدر ان تنتصب البتة.	11 And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity for eighteen years. And she was bent over; and she was unable to look upwards at all.
12 فلما رآها يسوع دعاها وقال لها يا امرأة انك محلولة من ضعفك.	12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to himself, and he said to her, “Woman, you are released from your infirmity.”
13 ووضع عليها يديه ففي الحال استقامت ومجدت الله.	13 And he laid his hands upon her, and immediately she was straightened, and she glorified God.
14 فاجاب رئيس المجمع وهو مغتاظ لان يسوع ابرأ في السبت وقال للجمع هي ستة ايام ينبغي فيها العمل ففي هذه ائتوا واستشفوا وليس في يوم السبت.	14 Then, as a result, the ruler of the synagogue became angry that Jesus had cured on the Sabbath, and he said to the crowd: “There are six days on which you ought to work. Therefore, come and be cured on those, and not on the day of the Sabbath.”
15 فاجابه الرب وقال يا مرائي ألا يحل كل واحد في السبت ثوره او حماره من المذود ويمضي به ويسقيه.	15 Then the Lord said to him in response: “You hypocrites! Does not each one of you, on the Sabbath, release his ox or donkey from the stall, and lead it to water?
16 وهذه وهي ابنة ابراهيم قد ربطها الشيطان ثماني عشرة سنة أما كان ينبغي ان تحل من هذا الرباط في يوم السبت.	16 So then, should not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound for lo these eighteen years, be released from this restraint on the day of the Sabbath?”
17 واذ قال هذا اخجل جميع الذين كانوا يعاندونه وفرح كل الجمع بجميع الاعمال المجيدة الكائنة منه	17 And as he was saying these things, all his adversaries were ashamed. And all the people rejoiced in everything that was being done gloriously by him.
18 فقال ماذا يشبه ملكوت الله وبماذا اشبهه.	18 And so he said: “To what is the kingdom of God similar, and to what figure shall I compare it?
19 يشبه حبة خردل اخذها انسان والقاها في بستانه فنمت وصارت شجرة كبيرة وتآوت طيور السماء في اغصانها	19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and cast into his garden. And it grew, and it became a great tree, and the birds of the air rested in its branches.”
20 وقال ايضا بماذا اشبه ملكوت الله.	20 And again, he said: “To what figure shall I compare the kingdom of God?
21 يشبه خميرة اخذتها امرأة وخبأتها في ثلاثة اكيال دقيق حتى اختمر الجميع	21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of fine wheat flour, until it was entirely leavened.”
22 واجتاز في مدن وقرى يعلّم ويسافر نحو اورشليم.	22 And he was traveling through the cities and towns, teaching and making his way to Jerusalem.
23 فقال له واحد يا سيد أقليل هم الذين يخلصون. فقال لهم	23 And someone said to him, “Lord, are they few who are saved?” But he said to them:
24 اجتهدوا ان تدخلوا من الباب الضيق. فاني اقول لكم ان كثيرين سيطلبون ان يدخلوا ولا يقدرون.	24 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and not be able.
25 من بعدما يكون رب البيت قد قام واغلق الباب وابتدأتم تقفون خارجا وتقرعون الباب قائلين يا رب يا رب افتح لنا يجيب ويقول لكم لا اعرفكم من اين انتم.	25 Then, when the father of the family will have entered and shut the door, you will begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, open to us.’ And in response, he will say to you, ‘I do not know where you are from.’
26 حينئذ تبتدئون تقولون اكلنا قدامك وشربنا وعلّمت في شوارعنا.	26 Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’
27 فيقول اقول لكم لا اعرفكم من اين انتم. تباعدوا عني يا جميع فاعلي الظلم.	27 And he will say to you: ‘I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity!’
28 هناك يكون البكاء وصرير الاسنان متى رأيتم ابراهيم واسحق ويعقوب وجميع الانبياء في ملكوت الله وانتم مطروحون خارجا.	28 In that place, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, yet you yourselves are expelled outside.
29 يأتون من المشارق ومن المغارب ومن الشمال والجنوب ويتكئون في ملكوت الله.	29 And they will arrive from the East, and the West, and the North, and the South; and they will recline at table in the kingdom of God.
30 وهوذا آخرون يكونون اولين واولون يكونون آخرين	30 And behold, those who are last will be first, and those who are first will be last.”
31 في ذلك اليوم تقدم بعض الفريسيين قائلين له اخرج واذهب من ههنا لان هيرودس يريد ان يقتلك.	31 On the same day, some of the Pharisees approached, saying to him: “Depart, and go away from here. For Herod wishes to kill you.”
32 فقال لهم امضوا وقولوا لهذا الثعلب ها انا اخرج شياطين واشفي اليوم وغدا وفي اليوم الثالث اكمل.	32 And he said to them: “Go and tell that fox: ‘Behold, I cast out demons and accomplish healings, today and tomorrow. And on the third day I reach the end.’
33 بل ينبغي ان اسير اليوم وغدا وما يليه لانه لا يمكن ان يهلك نبي خارجا عن اورشليم.	33 Yet truly, it is necessary for me to walk today and tomorrow and the following day. For it does not fall to a prophet to perish beyond Jerusalem.
34 يا اورشليم يا اورشليم يا قاتلة الانبياء وراجمة المرسلين اليها كم مرة اردت ان اجمع اولادك كما تجمع الدجاجة فراخها تحت جناحيها ولم تريدوا.	34 Jerusalem, Jerusalem! You kill the prophets, and you stone those who are sent to you. Daily, I wanted to gather together your children, in the manner of a bird with her nest under her wings, but you were not willing!
35 هوذا بيتكم يترك لكم خرابا. والحق اقول لكم انكم لا ترونني حتى يأتي وقت تقولون فيه مبارك الآتي باسم الرب	35 Behold, your house will be left desolate for you. But I say to you, that you shall not see me, until it happens that you say: ‘Blessed is he who has arrived in the name of the Lord.’ ”
