Lettera agli Ebrei (عبرانيين) 11

SMITH VAN DYKE	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 واما الايمان فهو الثقة بما يرجى والايقان بامور لا ترى.	1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 فانه في هذه شهد للقدماء.	2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3 بالايمان نفهم ان العالمين أتقنت بكلمة الله حتى لم يتكون ما يرى مما هو ظاهر.	3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
4 بالايمان قدم هابيل للّه ذبيحة افضل من قايين. فبه شهد له انه بار اذ شهد الله لقرابينه. وبه وان مات يتكلم بعد.	4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
5 بالايمان نقل اخنوخ لكي لا يرى الموت ولم يوجد لان الله نقله. اذ قبل نقله شهد له بانه قد ارضى الله.	5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
6 ولكن بدون ايمان لا يمكن ارضاؤه لانه يجب ان الذي يأتي الى الله يؤمن بانه موجود وانه يجازي الذين يطلبونه.	6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
7 بالايمان نوح لما أوحي اليه عن امور لم ترى بعد خاف فبنى فلكا لخلاص بيته فبه دان العالم وصار وارثا للبر الذي حسب الايمان.	7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
8 بالايمان ابراهيم لما دعي اطاع ان يخرج الى المكان الذي كان عتيدا ان يأخذه ميراثا فخرج وهو لا يعلم الى اين يأتي.	8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
9 بالايمان تغرب في ارض الموعد كانها غريبة ساكنا في خيام مع اسحق ويعقوب الوارثين معه لهذا الموعد عينه.	9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
10 لانه كان ينتظر المدينة التي لها الاساسات التي صانعها وبارئها الله.	10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
11 بالايمان سارة نفسها ايضا اخذت قدرة على انشاء نسل وبعد وقت السن ولدت اذ حسبت الذي وعد صادقا.	11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
12 لذلك ولد ايضا من واحد وذلك من ممات مثل نجوم السماء في الكثرة وكالرمل الذي على شاطئ البحر الذي لا يعد	12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
13 في الايمان مات هؤلاء اجمعون وهم لم ينالوا المواعيد بل من بعيد نظروها وصدقوها وحيوها واقروا بانهم غرباء ونزلاء على الارض.	13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
14 فان الذين يقولون مثل هذا يظهرون انهم يطلبون وطنا.	14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
15 فلو ذكروا ذلك الذي خرجوا منه لكان لهم فرصة للرجوع.	15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
16 ولكن الآن يبتغون وطنا افضل اي سماويا. لذلك لا يستحي بهم الله ان يدعى الههم لانه اعدّ لهم مدينة	16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
17 بالايمان قدم ابراهيم اسحق وهو مجرب. قدم الذي قبل المواعيد وحيده	17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
18 الذي قيل له انه باسحق يدعى لك نسل.	18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
19 اذ حسب ان الله قادر على الاقامة من الاموات ايضا الذين منهم اخذه ايضا في مثال.	19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
20 بالايمان اسحق بارك يعقوب وعيسو من جهة امور عتيدة.	20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
21 بالايمان يعقوب عند موته بارك كل واحد من ابني يوسف وسجد على راس عصاه.	21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.
22 بالايمان يوسف عند موته ذكر خروج بني اسرائيل واوصى من جهة عظامه.	22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
23 بالايمان موسى بعد ما ولد اخفاه ابواه ثلاثة اشهر لانهما رأيا الصبي جميلا ولم يخشيا امر الملك.	23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.
24 بالايمان موسى لما كبر ابى ان يدعى ابن ابنة فرعون	24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
25 مفضلا بالاحرى ان يذل مع شعب الله على ان يكون له تمتع وقتي بالخطية	25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
26 حاسبا عار المسيح غنى اعظم من خزائن مصر لانه كان ينظر الى المجازاة.	26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.
27 بالايمان ترك مصر غير خائف من غضب الملك لانه تشدد كانه يرى من لا يرى.	27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
28 بالايمان صنع الفصح ورشّ الدم لئلا يمسهم الذي اهلك الابكار.	28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
29 بالايمان اجتازوا في البحر الاحمر كما في اليابسة الامر الذي لما شرع فيه المصريون غرقوا.	29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.
30 بالايمان سقطت اسوار اريحا بعد ما طيف حولها سبعة ايام.	30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.
31 بالايمان راحاب الزانية لم تهلك مع العصاة اذ قبلت الجاسوسين بسلام	31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.
32 وماذا اقول ايضا لانه يعوزني الوقت ان اخبرت عن جدعون وباراق وشمشون ويفتاح وداود وصموئيل والانبياء	32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:
33 الذين بالايمان قهروا ممالك صنعوا برا نالوا مواعيد سدوا افواه اسود	33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
34 اطفأوا قوة النار نجوا من حد السيف تقووا من ضعف صاروا اشداء في الحرب هزموا جيوش غرباء.	34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
35 اخذت نساء امواتهن بقيامة. وآخرون عذبوا ولم يقبلوا النجاة لكي ينالوا قيامة افضل.	35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
36 وآخرون تجربوا في هزء وجلد ثم في قيود ايضا وحبس.	36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
37 رجموا نشروا جربوا ماتوا قتلا بالسيف طافوا في جلود غنم وجلود معزى معتازين مكروبين مذلين.	37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
38 وهم لم يكن العالم مستحقا لهم. تائهين في براري وجبال ومغاير وشقوق الارض.	38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
39 فهؤلاء كلهم مشهودا لهم بالايمان لم ينالوا الموعد	39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
40 اذ سبق الله فنظر لنا شيئا افضل لكي لا يكملوا بدوننا	40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
