Acts of the Apostles 22

KING JAMES BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you.	1 ايها الرجال الاخوة والآباء اسمعوا احتجاجي الآن لديكم‎.
2 (And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,)	2 ‎فلما سمعوا انه ينادي لهم باللغة العبرانية اعطوا سكوتا احرى‎. ‎فقال
3 I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.	3 انا رجل يهودي ولدت في طرسوس كيليكية ولكن ربيت في هذه المدينة مؤدبا عند رجلي غمالائيل على تحقيق الناموس الابوي وكنت غيورا للّه كما انتم جميعكم اليوم‎.
4 And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.	4 ‎واضطهدت هذا الطريق حتى الموت مقيدا ومسلما الى السجون رجالا ونساء‎.
5 As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished.	5 ‎كما يشهد لي ايضا رئيس الكهنة وجميع المشيخة الذين اذ اخذت ايضا منهم رسائل للاخوة الى دمشق ذهبت لآتي بالذين هناك الى اورشليم مقيدين لكي يعاقبوا‎.
6 And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me.	6 ‎فحدث لي وانا ذاهب ومتقرّب الى دمشق انه نحو نصف النهار بغتة ابرق حولي من السماء نور عظيم‎.
7 And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?	7 ‎فسقطت على الارض وسمعت صوتا قائلا لي شاول شاول لماذا تضطهدني‎.
8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.	8 ‎فاجبت من انت يا سيد. فقال لي انا يسوع الناصري الذي انت تضطهده.
9 And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me.	9 والذين كانوا معي نظروا النور وارتعبوا ولكنهم لم يسمعوا صوت الذي كلمني‎.
10 And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are appointed for thee to do.	10 ‎فقلت ماذا افعل يا رب. فقال لي الرب قم واذهب الى دمشق وهناك يقال لك عن جميع ما ترتب لك ان تفعل‎.
11 And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.	11 ‎واذ كنت لا ابصر من اجل بهاء ذلك النور اقتادني بيدي الذين كانوا معي فجئت الى دمشق
12 And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt there,	12 ثم ان حنانيا رجلا تقيا حسب الناموس ومشهودا له من جميع اليهود السكان
13 Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.	13 أتى اليّ ووقف وقال لي ايها الاخ شاول ابصر. ففي تلك الساعة نظرت اليه
14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.	14 فقال. اله آبائنا انتخبك لتعلم مشيئته وتبصر البار وتسمع صوتا من فمه‎.
15 For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard.	15 ‎لانك ستكون له شاهدا لجميع الناس بما رايت وسمعت‎.
16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.	16 ‎والآن لماذا تتوانى. قم واعتمد واغسل خطاياك داعيا باسم الرب
17 And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;	17 وحدث لي بعدما رجعت الى اورشليم وكنت اصلّي في الهيكل اني حصلت في غيبة
18 And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.	18 فرأيته قائلا لي اسرع واخرج عاجلا من اورشليم لانهم لا يقبلون شهادتك عني‎.
19 And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee:	19 ‎فقلت يا رب هم يعلمون اني كنت احبس واضرب في كل مجمع الذين يؤمنون بك‎.
20 And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him.	20 ‎وحين سفك دم استفانوس شهيدك كنت انا واقفا وراضيا بقتله وحافظا ثياب الذين قتلوه‎.
21 And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.	21 ‎فقال لي اذهب فاني سارسلك الى الامم بعيدا
22 And they gave him audience unto this word, and then lifted up their voices, and said, Away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live.	22 فسمعوا له حتى هذه الكلمة ثم رفعوا اصواتهم قائلين خذ مثل هذا من الارض لانه كان لا يجوز ان يعيش‎.
23 And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, and threw dust into the air,	23 ‎واذ كانوا يصيحون ويطرحون ثيابهم ويرمون غبارا الى الجو
24 The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, and bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know wherefore they cried so against him.	24 أمر الامير ان يذهب به الى المعسكر قائلا ان يفحص بضربات ليعلم لاي سبب كانوا يصرخون عليه هكذا
25 And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?	25 فلما مدوه للسياط قال بولس لقائد المئة الواقف أيجوز لكم ان تجلدوا انسانا رومانيا غير مقضي عليه‎.
26 When the centurion heard that, he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman.	26 ‎فاذ سمع قائد المئة ذهب الى الامير واخبره قائلا انظر ماذا انت مزمع ان تفعل. لان هذا الرجل روماني‎.
27 Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea.	27 ‎فجاء الامير وقال له قل لي. انت روماني. فقال نعم‎.
28 And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born.	28 ‎فاجاب الامير اما انا فبمبلغ كبير اقتنيت هذه الرعوية. فقال بولس اما انا فقد ولدت فيها‎.
29 Then straightway they departed from him which should have examined him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.	29 ‎وللوقت تنحى عنه الذين كانوا مزمعين ان يفحصوه واختشى الامير لما علم انه روماني ولانه قد قيده
30 On the morrow, because he would have known the certainty wherefore he was accused of the Jews, he loosed him from his bands, and commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him before them.	30 وفي الغد اذ كان يريد ان يعلم اليقين لماذا يشتكي اليهود عليه حله من الرباط وامر ان يحضر رؤساء الكهنة وكل مجمعهم فاحدر بولس واقامه لديهم
