Vangelo secondo Matteo (متى) 17

SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 وبعد ستة ايام اخذ يسوع بطرس ويعقوب ويوحنا اخاه وصعد بهم الى جبل عال منفردين.	1 And after six days, Jesus took Peter and James and his brother John, and he led them onto a lofty mountain separately.
2 وتغيّرت هيئته قدّامهم واضاء وجهه كالشمس وصارت ثيابه بيضاء كالنور.	2 And he was transfigured before them. And his face shined brightly like the sun. And his garments were made white like snow.
3 واذا موسى وايليا قد ظهرا لهم يتكلمان معه.	3 And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, speaking with him.
4 فجعل بطرس يقول ليسوع يا رب جيد ان نكون ههنا. فان شئت نصنع هنا ثلاث مظال. لك واحدة ولموسى واحدة ولايليا واحدة.	4 And Peter responded by saying to Jesus: “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you are willing, let us make three tabernacles here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
5 وفيما هو يتكلم اذا سحابة نيرة ظللتهم وصوت من السحابة قائلا هذا هو ابني الحبيب الذي به سررت. له اسمعوا.	5 And while he was still speaking, behold, a shining cloud overshadowed them. And behold, there was a voice from the cloud, saying: “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”
6 ولما سمع التلاميذ سقطوا على وجوههم وخافوا جدا.	6 And the disciples, hearing this, fell prone on their face, and they were very afraid.
7 فجاء يسوع ولمسهم وقال قوموا ولا تخافوا.	7 And Jesus drew near and touched them. And he said to them, “Rise up and do not be afraid.”
8 فرفعوا اعينهم ولم يروا احدا الا يسوع وحده	8 And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus alone.
9 وفيما هم نازلون من الجبل اوصاهم يسوع قائلا لا تعلموا احدا بما رأيتم حتى يقوم ابن الانسان من الاموات.	9 And as they were descending from the mountain, Jesus instructed them, saying, “Tell no one about the vision, until the Son of man has risen from the dead.”
10 وسأله تلاميذه قائلين فلماذا يقول الكتبة ان ايليا ينبغي ان يأتي اولا.	10 And his disciples questioned him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that it is necessary for Elijah to arrive first?”
11 فاجاب يسوع وقال لهم ان ايليا يأتي اولا ويردّ كل شيء.	11 But in response, he said to them: “Elijah, indeed, shall arrive and restore all things.
12 ولكني اقول لكم ان ايليا قد جاء ولم يعرفوه بل عملوا به كل ما ارادوا. كذلك ابن الانسان ايضا سوف يتألم منهم.	12 But I say to you, that Elijah has already arrived, and they did not recognize him, but they did whatever they wanted to him. So also shall the Son of man suffer from them.”
13 حينئذ فهم التلاميذ انه قال لهم عن يوحنا المعمدان	13 Then the disciples understood that he had spoken to them about John the Baptist.
14 ولما جاءوا الى الجمع تقدم اليه رجل جاثيا له	14 And when he had arrived at the multitude, a man approached him, falling to his knees before him, saying: “Lord, take pity on my son, for he is an epileptic, and he suffers harm. For he frequently falls into fire, and often also into water.
15 وقائلا يا سيد ارحم ابني فانه يصرع ويتألم شديدا. ويقع كثيرا في النار وكثيرا في الماء.	15 And I brought him to your disciples, but they were not able to cure him.”
16 واحضرته الى تلاميذك فلم يقدروا ان يشفوه.	16 Then Jesus responded by saying: “What an unbelieving and perverse generation! How long shall I be with you? How long shall I endure you? Bring him here to me.”
17 فاجاب يسوع وقال ايها الجيل غير المؤمن الملتوي. الى متى اكون معكم. الى متى احتملكم. قدموه اليّ ههنا.	17 And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.
18 فانتهره يسوع فخرج منه الشيطان فشفي الغلام من تلك الساعة.	18 Then the disciples approached Jesus privately and said, “Why were we unable to cast him out?”
19 ثم تقدم التلاميذ الى يسوع على انفراد وقالوا لماذا لم نقدر نحن ان نخرجه.	19 Jesus said to them: “Because of your unbelief. Amen I say to you, certainly, if you will have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it shall move. And nothing will be impossible for you.
20 فقال لهم يسوع لعدم ايمانكم. فالحق اقول لكم لو كان لكم ايمان مثل حبة خردل لكنتم تقولون لهذا الجبل انتقل من هنا الى هناك فينتقل ولا يكون شيء غير ممكن لديكم.	20 But this kind is not cast out, except through prayer and fasting.”
21 واما هذا الجنس فلا يخرج الا بالصلاة والصوم	21 And when they were conversing together in Galilee, Jesus said to them: “The Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.
22 وفيما هم يترددون في الجليل قال لهم يسوع. ابن الانسان سوف يسلم الى ايدي الناس	22 And they will kill him, but he will rise again on the third day.” And they were extremely saddened.
23 فيقتلونه وفي اليوم الثالث يقوم. فحزنوا جدا	23 And when they had arrived at Capernaum, those who collected the half shekel approached Peter, and they said to him, “Doesn’t your Teacher pay the half shekel?”
24 ولما جاءوا الى كفر ناحوم تقدم الذين ياخذون الدرهمين الى بطرس وقالوا أما يوفي معلمكم الدرهمين.	24 He said, “Yes.” And when he had entered into the house, Jesus went before him, saying: “How does it seem to you, Simon? The kings of the earth, from whom do they receive tribute or the census tax: from their own sons or from foreigners?”
25 قال بلى. فلما دخل البيت سبقه يسوع قائلا ماذا تظن يا سمعان. ممن ياخذ ملوك الارض الجباية او الجزية أمن بنيهم ام من الاجانب.	25 And he said, “From foreigners.” Jesus said to him: “Then the sons are free.
26 قال له بطرس من الاجانب. قال له يسوع فاذا البنون احرار.	26 But so that we may not become an obstacle to them: go to the sea, and cast in a hook, and take the first fish that is brought up, and when you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take it and give it to them, for me and for you.”
27 ولكن لئلا نعثرهم اذهب الى البحر وألق صنارة والسمكة التي تطلع اولا خذها ومتى فتحت فاها تجد استارا فخذه واعطهم عني وعنك
