Atti degli Apostoli (اعمال) 11

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 فسمع الرسل والاخوة الذين كانوا في اليهودية ان الامم ايضا قبلوا‏ كلمة الله‎.	1 The apostles and the brothers in Judaea heard that gentiles too had accepted the word of God,
2 ‎ولما صعد بطرس الى اورشليم خاصمه الذين من اهل الختان	2 and when Peter came up to Jerusalem the circumcised believers protested to him
3 قائلين انك دخلت الى رجال ذوي غلفة واكلت معهم‎.	3 and said, 'So you have been visiting the uncircumcised and eating with them!'
4 ‎فابتدأ بطرس يشرح لهم بالتتابع قائلا‎.	4 Peter in reply gave them the details point by point,
5 ‎انا كنت في مدينة يافا اصلّي فرأيت في غيبة رؤيا اناء نازلا مثل ملاءة عظيمة مدلاة باربعة اطراف من السماء فأتى اليّ‎.	5 'One day, when I was in the town of Jaffa,' he began, 'I fell into a trance as I was praying and had avision of something like a big sheet being let down from heaven by its four corners. This sheet came right downbeside me.
6 ‎فتفرست فيه متأملا فرأيت دواب الارض والوحوش والزحافات وطيور السماء‎.	6 I looked careful y into it and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds ofheaven.
7 ‎وسمعت صوتا قائلا لي قم يا بطرس اذبح وكل‎.	7 Then I heard a voice that said to me, "Now, Peter, kill and eat!"
8 ‎فقلت كلا يا رب لانه لم يدخل فمي قط دنس او نجس‎.	8 But I answered, "Certainly not, Lord; nothing profane or unclean has ever crossed my lips."
9 ‎فاجابني صوت ثانية من السماء ما طهره الله لا تنجسه انت‎.	9 And a second time the voice spoke from heaven, "What God has made clean, you have no right to callprofane."
10 ‎وكان هذا على ثلاث مرات ثم انتشل الجميع الى السماء ايضا‎.	10 This was repeated three times, before the whole of it was drawn up to heaven again.
11 ‎واذا ثلاثة رجال قد وقفوا للوقت عند البيت الذي كنت فيه مرسلين اليّ من قيصرية‎.	11 'Just at that moment, three men stopped outside the house where we were staying; they had beensent from Caesarea to fetch me,
12 ‎فقال لي الروح ان اذهب معهم غير مرتاب في شيء. وذهب معي ايضا هؤلاء الاخوة الستة. فدخلنا بيت الرجل‎.	12 and the Spirit told me to have no hesitation about going back with them. The six brothers here camewith me as wel , and we entered the man's house.
13 ‎فاخبرنا كيف رأى الملاك في بيته قائما وقائلا له ارسل الى يافا رجالا واستدع سمعان الملقب بطرس‎.	13 He told us he had seen an angel standing in his house who said, "Send to Jaffa and fetch Simonknown as Peter;
14 ‎وهو يكلمك كلاما به تخلص انت وكل بيتك‎.	14 he has a message for you that wil save you and your entire household."
15 ‎فلما ابتدأت اتكلم حل الروح القدس عليهم كما علينا ايضا في البداءة‎.	15 'I had scarcely begun to speak when the Holy Spirit came down on them in the same way as it cameon us at the beginning,
16 ‎فتذكرت كلام الرب كيف قال ان يوحنا عمد بماء واما انتم فستعمدون بالروح القدس‎.	16 and I remembered that the Lord had said, "John baptised with water, but you will be baptised with theHoly Spirit."
17 ‎فان كان الله قد اعطاهم الموهبة كما لنا ايضا بالسوية مؤمنين بالرب يسوع المسيح فمن انا. أقادر ان امنع الله‎.	17 I realised then that God was giving them the identical gift he gave to us when we believed in the LordJesus Christ; and who was I to stand in God's way?'
18 ‎فلما سمعوا ذلك سكتوا وكانوا يمجدون الله قائلين اذا اعطى الله الامم ايضا التوبة للحياة	18 This account satisfied them, and they gave glory to God, saying, 'God has clearly granted to thegentiles too the repentance that leads to life.'
19 اما الذين تشتتوا من جراء الضيق الذي حصل بسبب استفانوس فاجتازوا الى فينيقية وقبرس وانطاكية وهم لا يكلمون احدا بالكلمة الا اليهود فقط‎.	19 Those who had scattered because of the persecution that arose over Stephen travel ed as far asPhoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, but they proclaimed the message only to Jews.
20 ‎ولكن كان منهم قوم وهم رجال قبرسيون وقيروانيون الذين لما دخلوا انطاكية كانوا يخاطبون اليونانيين مبشرين بالرب يسوع‎.	20 Some of them, however, who came from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch where they startedpreaching also to the Greeks, proclaiming the good news of the Lord Jesus to them.
21 ‎وكانت يد الرب معهم فآمن عدد كثير ورجعوا الى الرب	21 The Lord helped them, and a great number believed and were converted to the Lord.
22 فسمع الخبر عنهم في آذان الكنيسة التي في اورشليم فارسلوا برنابا لكي يجتاز الى انطاكية‎.	22 The news of them came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem and they sent Barnabas out toAntioch.
23 ‎الذي لما أتى ورأى نعمة الله فرح ووعظ الجميع ان يثبتوا في الرب بعزم القلب‎.	23 There he was glad to see for himself that God had given grace, and he urged them all to remainfaithful to the Lord with heartfelt devotion;
24 ‎لانه كان رجلا صالحا وممتلئا من الروح القدس والايمان. فانضم الى الرب جمع غفير	24 for he was a good man, filled with the Holy Spirit and with faith. And a large number of people werewon over to the Lord.
25 ثم خرج برنابا الى طرسوس ليطلب شاول. ولما وجده جاء به الى انطاكية‎.	25 Barnabas then left for Tarsus to look for Saul,
26 ‎فحدث انهما اجتمعا في الكنيسة سنة كاملة وعلّما جمعا غفيرا ودعي التلاميذ مسيحيين في انطاكية اولا	26 and when he found him he brought him to Antioch. And it happened that they stayed together in thatchurch a whole year, instructing a large number of people. It was at Antioch that the disciples were first cal ed'Christians'.
27 وفي تلك الايام انحدر انبياء من اورشليم الى انطاكية‎.	27 While they were there some prophets came down to Antioch from Jerusalem,
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.	28 and one of them whose name was Agabus, seized by the Spirit, stood up and predicted that a severeand universal famine was going to happen. This in fact happened while Claudius was emperor.
29 ‎فحتم التلاميذ حسبما تيسّر لكل منهم ان يرسل كل واحد شيئا خدمة الى الاخوة الساكنين في اليهودية‎.	29 The disciples decided to send relief, each to contribute what he could afford, to the brothers living inJudaea.
30 ‎ففعلوا ذلك مرسلين الى المشايخ بيد برنابا وشاول	30 They did this and delivered their contributions to the elders through the agency of Barnabas and Saul.
