Atti degli Apostoli (اعمال) 9

SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 اما شاول فكان لم يزل ينفث تهدّدا وقتلا على تلاميذ الرب. فتقدم الى رئيس الكهنة	1 And Saul, as yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
2 وطلب منه رسائل الى دمشق الى الجماعات حتى اذا وجد اناسا من الطريق رجالا او نساء يسوقهم موثقين الى اورشليم‎.	2 And asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any men and wemen of this way, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
3 ‎وفي ذهابه حدث انه اقترب الى دمشق فبغتة ابرق حوله نور من السماء.	3 And as he went on his journey, it came to pass that he drew nigh to Damascus; and suddenly a light from heaven shined round about him.
4 فسقط على الارض وسمع صوتا قائلا له شاول شاول لماذا تضطهدني‎.	4 And falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
5 ‎فقال من انت يا سيد. فقال الرب انا يسوع الذي انت تضطهده. صعب عليك ان ترفس مناخس‎.	5 Who said: Who art thou, Lord? And he: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. It is hard for thee to kick against the goad.
6 ‎فقال وهو مرتعد ومتحيّر يا رب ماذا تريد ان افعل. فقال له الرب قم وادخل المدينة فيقال لك ماذا ينبغي ان تفعل‎.	6 And he trembling and astonished, said: Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
7 ‎واما الرجال المسافرون معه فوقفوا صامتين يسمعون الصوت ولا ينظرون احدا‎.	7 And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the city, and there it shall be told thee what thou must do. Now the men who went in company with him, stood amazed, hearing indeed a voice, but seeing no man.
8 ‎فنهض شاول عن الارض وكان وهو مفتوح العينين لا يبصر احدا‎. ‎فاقتادوه بيده وادخلوه الى دمشق‎.	8 And Saul arose from the ground; and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. But they leading him by the hands, brought him to Damascus.
9 ‎وكان ثلاثة ايام لا يبصر فلم يأكل ولم يشرب	9 And he was there three days, without sight, and he did neither eat nor drink.
10 وكان في دمشق تلميذ اسمه حنانيا. فقال له الرب في رؤيا يا حنانيا. فقال هانذا يا رب‎.	10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision: Ananias. And he said: Behold I am here, Lord.
11 ‎فقال له الرب قم واذهب الى الزقاق الذي يقال له المستقيم واطلب في بيت يهوذا رجلا طرسوسيا اسمه شاول. لانه هوذا يصلّي	11 And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the street that is called Stait, and seek in the house of Judas, one named Saul of Tarsus. For behold he prayeth.
12 وقد رأى في رؤيا رجلا اسمه حنانيا داخلا وواضعا يده عليه لكي يبصر‎.	12 (And he saw a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hands upon him, that he might receive his sight.)
13 ‎فاجاب حنانيا يا رب قد سمعت من كثيرين عن هذا الرجل كم من الشرور فعل بقديسيك في اورشليم‎.	13 But Ananias answered: Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints in Jerusalem.
14 ‎وههنا له سلطان من قبل رؤساء الكهنة ان يوثق جميع الذين يدعون باسمك‎.	14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that invoke thy name.
15 ‎فقال له الرب اذهب. لان هذا لي اناء مختار ليحمل اسمي امام امم وملوك وبني اسرائيل‎.	15 And the Lord said to him: Go thy way; for this man is to me a vessel of election, to carry my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.
16 ‎لاني سأريه كم ينبغي ان يتألم من اجل اسمي‎.	16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
17 ‎فمضى حنانيا ودخل البيت ووضع عليه يديه وقال ايها الاخ شاول قد ارسلني الرب يسوع الذي ظهر لك في الطريق الذي جئت فيه لكي تبصر وتمتلئ من الروح القدس‎.	17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house. And laying his hands upon him, he said: Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus hath sent me, he that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest; that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
18 ‎فللوقت وقع من عينيه شيء كانه قشور فابصر في الحال وقام واعتمد.	18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he received his sight; and rising up, he was baptized.
19 وتناول طعاما فتقوى. وكان شاول مع التلاميذ الذين في دمشق اياما.	19 And when he had taken meat, he was strengthened. And he was with the disciples that were at Damascus, for some days.
20 وللوقت جعل يكرز في المجامع بالمسيح ان هذا هو ابن الله‎.	20 And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
21 ‎فبهت جميع الذين كانوا يسمعون وقالوا أليس هذا هو الذي اهلك في اورشليم الذين يدعون بهذا الاسم. وقد جاء الى هنا لهذا ليسوقهم موثقين الى رؤساء الكهنة‎.	21 And all that heard him, were astonished, and said: Is not this he who persecuted in Jerusalem those that called upon this name: and came hither for that intent, that he might carry them bound to the chief priests?
22 ‎واما شاول فكان يزداد قوة ويحيّر اليهود الساكنين في دمشق محققا ان هذا هو المسيح	22 But Saul increased much more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, affirming that this is the Christ.
23 ولما تمت ايام كثيرة تشاور اليهود ليقتلوه‎.	23 And when many days were passed, the Jews consulted together to kill him.
24 ‎فعلم شاول بمكيدتهم. وكانوا يراقبون الابواب ايضا نهارا وليلا ليقتلوه‎.	24 But their laying in wait was made known to Saul. And they watched the gates also day and night, that they might kill him.
25 ‎فاخذه التلاميذ ليلا وانزلوه من السور مدلين اياه في سل	25 But the disciples taking him in the night, conveyed him away by the wall, letting him down in a basket.
26 ولما جاء شاول الى اورشليم حاول ان يلتصق بالتلاميذ. وكان الجميع يخافونه غير مصدقين انه تلميذ‎.	26 And when he was come into Jerusalem, he essayed to join himself to the disciples; and they all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
27 ‎فاخذه برنابا واحضره الى الرسل وحدثهم كيف ابصر الرب في الطريق وانه كلمه وكيف جاهر في دمشق باسم يسوع‎.	27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and told them how he had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken to him; and how in Damascus he had dealt confidently in the name of Jesus.
28 ‎فكان معهم يدخل ويخرج في اورشليم ويجاهر باسم الرب يسوع‎.	28 And he was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, and dealing confidently in the name of the Lord.
29 ‎وكان يخاطب ويباحث اليونانيين فحاولوا ان يقتلوه‎.	29 He spoke also to the Gentiles, and disputed with the Greeks; but they sought to kill him.
30 ‎فلما علم الاخوة احدروه الى قيصرية وارسلوه الى طرسوس	30 Which when the brethren had known, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him away to Tarsus.
31 واما الكنائس في جميع اليهودية والجليل والسامرة فكان لها سلام وكانت تبنى وتسير في خوف الرب وبتعزية الروح القدس كانت تتكاثر	31 Now the church had peace throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria; and was edified, walking in the fear of the Lord, and was filled with the consolation of the Holy Ghost.
32 وحدث ان بطرس وهو يجتاز بالجميع نزل ايضا الى القديسين الساكنين في لدّة‎.	32 And it came to pass that Peter, as he passed through, visiting all, came to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.
33 ‎فوجد هناك انسانا اسمه اينياس مضطجعا على سرير منذ ثماني سنين وكان مفلوجا‎.	33 And he found there a certain man named Eneas, who had kept his bed for eight years, who was ill of the palsy.
34 ‎فقال له بطرس يا اينياس يشفيك يسوع المسيح. قم وافرش لنفسك‎. ‎فقام للوقت‎.	34 And Peter said to him: Eneas, the Lord Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise, and make thy bed. And immediately he arose.
35 ‎ورآه جميع الساكنين في لدّة وسارون الذين رجعوا الى الرب	35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, saw him: who were converted to the Lord.
36 وكان في يافا تلميذة اسمها طابيثا الذي ترجمته غزالة. هذه كانت ممتلئة اعمالا صالحة واحسانات كانت تعملها‎.	36 And in Joppe there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
37 ‎وحدث في تلك الايام انها مرضت وماتت. فغسلوها ووضعوها في عليّة.	37 And it came to pass in those days that she was sick, and died. Whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
38 واذ كانت لدّة قريبة من يافا وسمع التلاميذ ان بطرس فيها ارسلوا رجلين يطلبان اليه ان لا يتوانى عن ان يجتاز اليهم‎.	38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppe, the disciples hearing that Peter was there, sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not be slack to come unto them.
39 ‎فقام بطرس وجاء معهما. فلما وصل صعدوا به الى العليّة فوقفت لديه جميع الارامل يبكين ويرين اقمصة وثيابا مما كانت تعمل غزالة وهي معهنّ.	39 And Peter rising up, went with them. And when he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber. And all the widows stood about him weeping, and shewing him the coats and garments which Dorcas made them.
40 فاخرج بطرس الجميع خارجا وجثا على ركبتيه وصلّى ثم التفت الى الجسد وقال يا طابيثا قومي. ففتحت عينيها. ولما ابصرت بطرس جلست‎.	40 And they all being put forth, Peter kneeling down prayed, and turning to the body, he said: Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and seeing Peter, she sat up.
41 ‎فناولها يده واقامها. ثم نادى القديسين والارامل واحضرها حية‎.	41 And giving her his hand, he lifted her up. And when he had called the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.
42 ‎فصار ذلك معلوما في يافا كلها فآمن كثيرون بالرب‎.	42 And it was made known throughout all Joppe; and many believed in the Lord.
43 ‎ومكث اياما كثيرة في يافا عند سمعان رجل دباغ	43 And it came to pass, that he abode many days in Joppe, with one Simon a tanner.
