Vangelo secondo Matteo (متى) 16

SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 وجاء اليه الفريسيون والصدوقيون ليجربوه فسألوه ان يريهم آية من السماء.	1 And Pharisees and Sadducees approached him to test him, and they asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 فاجاب وقال لهم اذا كان المساء قلتم صحو. لان السماء محمرة.	2 But he responded by saying to them: “When evening arrives, you say, ‘It will be calm, for the sky is red,’
3 وفي الصباح اليوم شتاء. لان السماء محمرة بعبوسة. يا مراؤون تعرفون ان تميّزوا وجه السماء واما علامات الازمنة فلا تستطيعون.	3 and in the morning, ‘Today there will be a storm, for the sky is red and gloomy.’ So then, you know how to judge the appearance of the sky, but you are unable to know the signs of the times?
4 جيل شرير فاسق يلتمس آية. ولا تعطى له آية الا آية يونان النبي. ثم تركهم ومضى	4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign. And a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” And leaving them behind, he went away.
5 ولما جاء تلاميذه الى العبر نسوا ان ياخذوا خبزا.	5 And when his disciples went across the sea, they forgot to bring bread.
6 وقال لهم يسوع انظروا وتحرزوا من خمير الفريسيين والصدوقيين.	6 And he said to them, “Consider and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.”
7 ففكروا في انفسهم قائلين اننا لم نأخذ خبزا.	7 But they were thinking within themselves, saying, “It is because we have not brought bread.”
8 فعلم يسوع وقال لماذا تفكرون في انفسكم يا قليلي الايمان انكم لم تأخذوا خبزا.	8 Then Jesus, knowing this, said: “Why do you consider within yourselves, O little in faith, that it is because you have no bread?
9 أحتى الآن لا تفهمون ولا تذكرون خمس خبزات الخمسة الآلاف وكم قفة اخذتم.	9 Do you not yet understand, nor remember, the five loaves among the five thousand men, and how many containers you took up?
10 ولا سبع خبزات الاربعة الآلاف وكم سلا اخذتم.	10 Or the seven loaves among the four thousand men, and how many baskets you took up?
11 كيف لا تفهمون اني ليس عن الخبز قلت لكم ان تتحرزوا من خمير الفريسيين والصدوقيين.	11 Why do you not understand that it was not because of bread that I said to you: Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees?”
12 حينئذ فهموا انه لم يقل ان يتحرزوا من خمير الخبز بل من تعليم الفريسيين والصدوقيين	12 Then they understood that he was not saying that they should beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.
13 ولما جاء يسوع الى نواحي قيصرية فيلبس سأل تلاميذه قائلا من يقول الناس اني انا ابن الانسان.	13 Then Jesus went into parts of Caesarea Philippi. And he questioned his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that the Son of man is?”
14 فقالوا. قوم يوحنا المعمدان. وآخرون ايليا. وآخرون ارميا او واحد من الانبياء.	14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, and others say Elijah, still others say Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
15 فقال لهم وانتم من تقولون اني انا.	15 Jesus said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
16 فاجاب سمعان بطرس وقال انت هو المسيح ابن الله الحي.	16 Simon Peter responded by saying, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
17 فاجاب يسوع وقال له طوبى لك يا سمعان بن يونا. ان لحما ودما لم يعلن لك لكن ابي الذي في السموات.	17 And in response, Jesus said to him: “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father, who is in heaven.
18 وانا اقول لك ايضا انت بطرس وعلى هذه الصخرة ابني كنيستي وابواب الجحيم لن تقوى عليها.	18 And I say to you, that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.
19 وأعطيك مفاتيح ملكوت السموات. فكل ما تربطه على الارض يكون مربوطا في السموات. وكل ما تحله على الارض يكون محلولا في السموات.	19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound, even in heaven. And whatever you shall release on earth shall be released, even in heaven.”
20 حينئذ اوصى تلاميذه ان لا يقولوا لاحد انه يسوع المسيح	20 Then he instructed his disciples that they should tell no one that he is Jesus the Christ.
21 من ذلك الوقت ابتدأ يسوع يظهر لتلاميذه انه ينبغي ان يذهب الى اورشليم ويتألم كثيرا من الشيوخ ورؤساء الكهنة والكتبة ويقتل وفي اليوم الثالث يقوم.	21 From that time, Jesus began to reveal to his disciples that it was necessary for him to go to Jerusalem, and to suffer much from the elders and the scribes and the leaders of the priests, and to be killed, and to rise again on the third day.
22 فأخذه بطرس اليه وابتدأ ينتهره قائلا حاشاك يا رب. لا يكون لك هذا.	22 And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him, saying, “Lord, may it be far from you; this shall not happen to you.”
23 فالتفت وقال لبطرس اذهب عني يا شيطان. انت معثرة لي لانك لا تهتم بما لله لكن بما للناس	23 And turning away, Jesus said to Peter: “Get behind me, Satan; you are an obstacle to me. For you are not behaving according to what is of God, but according to what is of men.”
24 حينئذ قال يسوع لتلاميذه ان اراد احد ان يأتي ورائي فلينكر نفسه ويحمل صليبه ويتبعني.	24 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “If anyone is willing to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 فان من اراد ان يخلّص نفسه يهلكها. ومن يهلك نفسه من اجلي يجدها.	25 For whoever would save his life, will lose it. But whoever will have lost his life for my sake, shall find it.
26 لانه ماذا ينتفع الانسان لو ربح العالم كله وخسر نفسه. او ماذا يعطي الانسان فداء عن نفسه.	26 For how does it benefit a man, if he gains the whole world, yet truly suffers damage to his soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27 فان ابن الانسان سوف يأتي في مجد ابيه مع ملائكته وحينئذ يجازي كل واحد حسب عمله.	27 For the Son of man will arrive in the glory of his Father, with his Angels. And then he will repay each one according to his works.
28 الحق اقول لكم ان من القيام ههنا قوما لا يذوقون الموت حتى يروا ابن الانسان آتيا في ملكوته	28 Amen I say to you, there are some among those standing here, who shall not taste death, until they see the Son of man arriving in his reign.”
