Atti degli Apostoli (اعمال) 10

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 وكان في قيصرية رجل اسمه كرنيليوس قائد مئة من الكتيبة التي تدعى الايطالية‎.	1 One of the centurions of the Italica cohort stationed in Caesarea was cal ed Cornelius.
2 ‎وهو تقي وخائف الله مع جميع بيته يصنع حسنات كثيرة للشعب ويصلّي الى الله في كل حين‎.	2 He and the whole of his household were devout and God-fearing, and he gave generously to Jewishcauses and prayed constantly to God.
3 ‎فرأى ظاهرا في رؤيا نحو الساعة التاسعة من النهار ملاكا من الله داخلا اليه وقائلا له يا كرنيليوس‎.	3 One day at about the ninth hour he had a vision in which he distinctly saw the angel of God come intohis house and cal out to him, 'Cornelius!'
4 ‎فلما شخص اليه ودخله الخوف قال ماذا يا سيد. فقال له. صلواتك وصدقاتك صعدت تذكارا امام الله‎.	4 He stared at the vision in terror and exclaimed, 'What is it, Lord?' The angel answered, 'Your prayersand charitable gifts have been accepted by God.
5 ‎والآن ارسل الى يافا رجالا واستدع سمعان الملقب بطرس‎.	5 Now you must send some men to Jaffa and fetch a man cal ed Simon, known as Peter,
6 ‎انه نازل عند سمعان رجل دباغ بيته عند البحر. هو يقول لك ماذا ينبغي ان تفعل‎.	6 who is lodging with Simon the tanner whose house is by the sea.'
7 ‎فلما انطلق الملاك الذي كان يكلم كرنيليوس نادى اثنين من خدامه وعسكريا تقيا من الذين كانوا يلازمونه	7 When the angel who said this had gone, Cornelius cal ed two of the slaves and a devout soldier of hisstaff,
8 واخبرهم بكل شيء وارسلهم الى يافا	8 told them al that had happened, and sent them off to Jaffa.
9 ثم في الغد فيما هم يسافرون ويقتربون الى المدينة صعد بطرس على السطح ليصلّي نحو الساعة السادسة‎.	9 Next day, while they were still on their journey and had only a short distance to go before reaching thetown, Peter went to the housetop at about the sixth hour to say his prayers.
10 ‎فجاع كثيرا واشتهى ان يأكل. وبينما هم يهيئون له وقعت عليه غيبة‎.	10 He felt hungry and was looking forward to his meal, but before it was ready he fel into a trance
11 ‎فرأى السماء مفتوحة واناء نازلا عليه مثل ملاءة عظيمة مربوطة باربعة اطراف ومدلاة على الارض‎.	11 and saw heaven thrown open and something like a big sheet being let down to earth by its fourcorners;
12 ‎وكان فيها كل دواب الارض والوحوش والزحافات وطيور السماء‎.	12 it contained every kind of animal, reptile and bird.
13 ‎وصار اليه صوت قم يا بطرس اذبح وكل‎.	13 A voice then said to him, 'Now, Peter, kil and eat!'
14 ‎فقال بطرس كلا يا رب لاني لم آكل قط شيئا دنسا او نجسا‎.	14 But Peter answered, 'Certainly not, Lord; I have never yet eaten anything profane or unclean.'
15 ‎فصار اليه ايضا صوت ثانية ما طهره الله لا تدنسه انت‎.	15 Again, a second time, the voice spoke to him, 'What God has made clean, you have no right to callprofane.'
16 ‎وكان هذا على ثلاث مرات ثم ارتفع الاناء ايضا الى السماء	16 This was repeated three times, and then suddenly the container was drawn up to heaven again.
17 واذ كان بطرس يرتاب في نفسه ماذا عسى ان تكون الرؤيا التي رآها اذا الرجال الذين ارسلوا من قبل كرنيليوس. وكانوا قد سألوا عن بيت سمعان وقد وقفوا على الباب	17 Peter was still at a loss over the meaning of the vision he had seen, when the men sent by Corneliusarrived. They had asked where Simon's house was and they were now standing at the door,
18 ونادوا يستخبرون هل سمعان الملقب بطرس نازل هناك‎.	18 cal ing out to know if the Simon known as Peter was lodging there.
19 ‎وبينما بطرس متفكر في الرؤيا قال له الروح هوذا ثلاثة رجال يطلبونك‎.	19 While Peter's mind was stil on the vision, the Spirit told him, 'Look! Some men have come to see you.
20 ‎لكن قم وانزل واذهب معهم غير مرتاب في شيء لاني انا قد ارسلتهم.	20 Hurry down, and do not hesitate to return with them; it was I who told them to come.'
21 فنزل بطرس الى الرجال الذين أرسلوا اليه من قبل كرنيليوس وقال ها انا الذي تطلبونه. ما هو السبب الذي حضرتم لاجله‎.	21 Peter went down and said to them, 'I am the man you are looking for; why have you come?'
22 ‎فقالوا ان كرنيليوس قائد مئة رجلا بارا وخائف الله ومشهودا له من كل امة اليهود أوحي اليه بملاك مقدس ان يستدعيك الى بيته ويسمع منك كلاما‎.	22 They said, 'The centurion Cornelius, who is an upright and God-fearing man, highly regarded by theentire Jewish people, was told by God through a holy angel to send for you and bring you to his house and tolisten to what you have to say.'
23 ‎فدعاهم الى داخل واضافهم. ثم في الغد خرج بطرس معهم واناس من الاخوة الذين من يافا رافقوه	23 So Peter asked them in and gave them lodging. Next day, he was ready to go off with them,accompanied by some of the brothers from Jaffa.
24 وفي الغد دخلوا قيصرية. واما كرنيليوس فكان ينتظرهم وقد دعا انسباءه واصدقاءه الاقربين‎.	24 They reached Caesarea the following day, and Cornelius was waiting for them. He had asked hisrelations and close friends to be there,
25 ‎ولما دخل بطرس استقبله كرنيليوس وسجد واقعا على قدميه‎.	25 and as Peter reached the house Cornelius went out to meet him, fel at his feet and did himreverence.
26 ‎فاقامه بطرس قائلا قم انا ايضا انسان‎.	26 But Peter helped him up. 'Stand up,' he said, ' after al , I am only a man!'
27 ‎ثم دخل وهو يتكلم معه ووجد كثيرين مجتمعين‎.	27 Talking together they went in to meet all the people assembled there,
28 ‎فقال لهم انتم تعلمون كيف هو محرم على رجل يهودي ان يلتصق باحد اجنبي او يأتي اليه. واما انا فقد أراني الله ان لا اقول عن انسان ما انه دنس او نجس‎.	28 and Peter said to them, 'You know it is forbidden for Jews to mix with people of another race and visitthem; but God has made it clear to me that I must not cal anyone profane or unclean.
29 ‎فلذلك جئت من دون مناقضة اذ استدعيتموني. فاستخبركم لاي سبب استدعيتموني‎.	29 That is why I made no objection to coming when I was sent for; but I should like to know exactly whyyou sent for me.'
30 ‎فقال كرنيليوس منذ اربعة ايام الى هذه الساعة كنت صائما. وفي الساعة التاسعة كنت اصلّي في بيتي واذا رجل قد وقف امامي بلباس لامع	30 Cornelius replied, 'At this time three days ago I was in my house saying the prayers for the ninth hour,when I suddenly saw a man in front of me in shining robes.
31 وقال يا كرنيليوس سمعت صلاتك وذكرت صدقاتك امام الله‎.	31 He said, "Cornelius, your prayer has been heard and your charitable gifts have not been forgotten byGod;
32 ‎فارسل الى يافا واستدعي سمعان الملقب بطرس. انه نازل في بيت سمعان رجل دباغ عند البحر. فهو متى جاء يكلمك‎.	32 so now you must send to Jaffa and fetch Simon known as Peter who is lodging in the house of Simonthe tanner, by the sea."
33 ‎فارسلت اليك حالا. وانت فعلت حسنا اذ جئت. والآن نحن جميعا حاضرون امام الله لنسمع جميع ما امرك به الله	33 So I sent for you at once, and you have been kind enough to come. Here we al are, assembled infront of you to hear al the instructions God has given you.'
34 ففتح بطرس فاه وقال. بالحق انا اجد ان الله لا يقبل الوجوه‎.	34 Then Peter addressed them, 'I now real y understand', he said, 'that God has no favourites,
35 ‎بل في كل امة الذي يتقيه ويصنع البر مقبول عنده	35 but that anybody of any nationality who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.
36 الكلمة التي ارسلها الى بني اسرائيل يبشر بالسلام بيسوع المسيح. هذا هو رب الكل‎.	36 'God sent his word to the people of Israel, and it was to them that the good news of peace wasbrought by Jesus Christ -- he is the Lord of al .
37 ‎انتم تعلمون الامر الذي صار في كل اليهودية مبتدئا من الجليل بعد المعمودية التي كرز بها يوحنا‎.	37 You know what happened al over Judaea, how Jesus of Nazareth began in Galilee, after John hadbeen preaching baptism.
38 ‎يسوع الذي من الناصرة كيف مسحه الله بالروح القدس والقوة الذي جال يصنع خيرا ويشفي جميع المتسلط عليهم ابليس لان الله كان معه‎.	38 God had anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power, and because God was with him, Jesuswent about doing good and curing al who had fal en into the power of the devil.
39 ‎ونحن شهود بكل ما فعل في كورة اليهودية وفي اورشليم. الذي ايضا قتلوه معلقين اياه على خشبة‎.	39 Now we are witnesses to everything he did throughout the countryside of Judaea and in Jerusalemitself: and they kil ed him by hanging him on a tree,
40 ‎هذا اقامه الله في اليوم الثالث واعطى ان يصير ظاهرا	40 yet on the third day God raised him to life and allowed him to be seen,
41 ليس لجميع الشعب بل لشهود سبق الله فانتخبهم. لنا نحن الذين اكلنا وشربنا معه بعد قيامته من الاموات‎.	41 not by the whole people but only by certain witnesses that God had chosen beforehand. Now we arethose witnesses -- we have eaten and drunk with him after his resurrection from the dead-
42 ‎واوصانا ان نكرز للشعب ونشهد بان هذا هو المعين من الله ديانا للاحياء والاموات‎.	42 and he has ordered us to proclaim this to his people and to bear witness that God has appointed himto judge everyone, alive or dead.
43 ‎له يشهد جميع الانبياء ان كل من يؤمن به ينال باسمه غفران الخطايا	43 It is to him that all the prophets bear this witness: that al who believe in Jesus wil have their sinsforgiven through his name.'
44 فبينما بطرس يتكلم بهذه الامور حل الروح القدس على جميع الذين كانوا يسمعون الكلمة‎.	44 While Peter was stil speaking the Holy Spirit came down on al the listeners.
45 ‎فاندهش المؤمنون الذين من اهل الختان كل من جاء مع بطرس لان موهبة الروح القدس قد انسكبت على الامم ايضا‎.	45 Jewish believers who had accompanied Peter were al astonished that the gift of the Holy Spiritshould be poured out on gentiles too,
46 ‎لانهم كانوا يسمعونهم يتكلمون بألسنة ويعظمون الله. حينئذ اجاب بطرس	46 since they could hear them speaking strange languages and proclaiming the greatness of God. Peterhimself then said,
47 أترى يستطيع احد ان يمنع الماء حتى لا يعتمد هؤلاء الذين قبلوا الروح القدس كما نحن ايضا‎.	47 'Could anyone refuse the water of baptism to these people, now they have received the Holy Spiritjust as we have?'
48 ‎وامر ان يعتمدوا باسم الرب. حينئذ سألوه ان يمكث اياما	48 He then gave orders for them to be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ. Afterwards they begged himto stay on for some days.
