Atti degli Apostoli (اعمال) 28

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 ولما نجوا وجدوا ان الجزيرة تدعى مليطة‎.	1 Once we had reached safety we learned that the island was called Malta.
2 ‎فقدم اهلها البرابرة لنا احسانا غير المعتاد لانهم اوقدوا نارا وقبلوا جميعنا من اجل المطر الذي اصابنا ومن اجل البرد	2 The natives showed us extraordinary hospitality; they lit a fire and welcomed all of us because it had begun to rain and was cold.
3 فجمع بولس كثيرا من القضبان ووضعها على النار فخرجت من الحرارة افعى ونشبت في يده‎.	3 Paul had gathered a bundle of brushwood and was putting it on the fire when a viper, escaping from the heat, fastened on his hand.
4 ‎فلما رأى البرابرة الوحش معلقا بيده قال بعضهم لبعض لا بد ان هذا الانسان قاتل لم يدعه العدل يحيا ولو نجا من البحر‎.	4 When the natives saw the snake hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "This man must certainly be a murderer; though he escaped the sea, Justice has not let him remain alive."
5 ‎فنفض هو الوحش الى النار ولم يتضرر بشيء رديء‎.	5 But he shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no harm.
6 ‎واما هم فكانوا ينتظرون انه عتيد ان ينتفخ او يسقط بغتة ميتا‎. ‎فاذ انتظروا كثيرا ورأوا انه لم يعرض له شيء مضرّ تغيّروا وقالوا هو اله	6 They were expecting him to swell up or suddenly to fall down dead but, after waiting a long time and seeing nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and began to say that he was a god.
7 وكان في ما حول ذلك الموضع ضياع لمقدم الجزيرة الذي اسمه بوبليوس. فهذا قبلنا واضافنا بملاطفة ثلاثة ايام‎.	7 In the vicinity of that place were lands belonging to a man named Publius, the chief of the island. He welcomed us and received us cordially as his guests for three days.
8 ‎فحدث ان ابا بوبليوس كان مضطجعا معترى بحمى وسحج. فدخل اليه بولس وصلّى ووضع يديه عليه فشفاه‎.	8 It so happened that the father of Publius was sick with a fever and dysentery. Paul visited him and, after praying, laid his hands on him and healed him.
9 ‎فلما صار هذا كان الباقون الذين بهم امراض في الجزيرة يأتون ويشفون‎.	9 After this had taken place, the rest of the sick on the island came to Paul and were cured.
10 ‎فاكرمنا هؤلاء اكرامات كثيرة ولما اقلعنا زودونا ما يحتاج اليه	10 They paid us great honor and when we eventually set sail they brought us the provisions we needed.
11 وبعد ثلاثة اشهر اقلعنا في سفينة اسكندرية موسومة بعلامة الجوزاء كانت قد شتت في الجزيرة‎.	11 Three months later we set sail on a ship that had wintered at the island. It was an Alexandrian ship with the Dioscuri as its figurehead.
12 ‎فنزلنا الى سراكوسا ومكثنا ثلاثة ايام‎.	12 We put in at Syracuse and stayed there three days,
13 ‎ثم من هناك درنا واقبلنا الى ريغيون. وبعد يوم واحد حدثت ريح جنوب فجئنا في اليوم الثاني الى بوطيولي	13 and from there we sailed round the coast and arrived at Rhegium. After a day, a south wind came up and in two days we reached Puteoli.
14 حيث وجدنا اخوة فطلبوا الينا ان نمكث عندهم سبعة ايام. وهكذا أتينا الى رومية‎.	14 There we found some brothers and were urged to stay with them for seven days. And thus we came to Rome.
15 ‎ومن هناك لما سمع الاخوة بخبرنا خرجوا لاستقبالنا الى فورن ابيوس والثلاثة الحوانيت. فلما رآهم بولس شكر الله وتشجع	15 The brothers from there heard about us and came as far as the Forum of Appius and Three Taverns to meet us. On seeing them, Paul gave thanks to God and took courage.
16 ولما أتينا الى رومية سلم قائد المئة الاسرى الى رئيس المعسكر. واما بولس فأذن له ان يقيم وحده مع العسكري الذي كان يحرسه	16 When he entered Rome, Paul was allowed to live by himself, with the soldier who was guarding him.
17 وبعد ثلاثة ايام استدعى بولس الذين كانوا وجوه اليهود. فلما اجتمعوا قال لهم ايها الرجال الاخوة مع اني لم افعل شيئا ضد الشعب او عوائد الآباء أسلمت مقيدا من اورشليم الى ايدي الرومانيين	17 Three days later he called together the leaders of the Jews. When they had gathered he said to them, "My brothers, although I had done nothing against our people or our ancestral customs, I was handed over to the Romans as a prisoner from Jerusalem.
18 الذين لما فحصوا كانوا يريدون ان يطلقوني لانه لم تكن فيّ علّة واحدة للموت‎.	18 After trying my case the Romans wanted to release me, because they found nothing against me deserving the death penalty.
19 ‎ولكن لما قاوم اليهود اضطررت ان ارفع دعواي الى قيصر. ليس كأن لي شيئا لاشتكي به على امتي‎.	19 But when the Jews objected, I was obliged to appeal to Caesar, even though I had no accusation to make against my own nation.
20 ‎فلهذا السبب طلبتكم لاراكم واكلمكم لاني من اجل رجاء اسرائيل موثق بهذه السلسلة‎.	20 This is the reason, then, I have requested to see you and to speak with you, for it is on account of the hope of Israel that I wear these chains."
21 ‎فقالوا له نحن لم نقبل كتابات فيك من اليهودية ولا احد من الاخوة جاء فاخبرنا او تكلم عنك بشيء رديء‎.	21 They answered him, "We have received no letters from Judea about you, nor has any of the brothers arrived with a damaging report or rumor about you.
22 ‎ولكننا نستحسن ان نسمع منك ماذا ترى لانه معلوم عندنا من جهة هذا المذهب انه يقاوم في كل مكان	22 But we should like to hear you present your views, for we know that this sect is denounced everywhere."
23 فعيّنوا له يوما فجاء اليه كثيرون الى المنزل فطفق يشرح لهم شاهدا بملكوت الله ومقنعا اياهم من ناموس موسى والانبياء بامر يسوع من الصباح الى المساء‎.	23 So they arranged a day with him and came to his lodgings in great numbers. From early morning until evening, he expounded his position to them, bearing witness to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus from the law of Moses and the prophets.
24 ‎فاقتنع بعضهم بما قيل وبعضهم لم يؤمنوا	24 Some were convinced by what he had said, while others did not believe.
25 فانصرفوا وهم غير متفقين بعضهم مع بعض لما قال بولس كلمة واحدة انه حسنا كلم الروح القدس آباءنا باشعياء النبي	25 Without reaching any agreement among themselves they began to leave; then Paul made one final statement. "Well did the holy Spirit speak to your ancestors through the prophet Isaiah, saying:
26 قائلا اذهب الى هذا الشعب وقل ستسمعون سمعا ولا تفهمون وستنظرون نظرا ولا تبصرون‎.	26 'Go to this people and say: You shall indeed hear but not understand. You shall indeed look but never see.
27 ‎لان قلب هذا الشعب قد غلظ وبآذانهم سمعوا ثقيلا واعينهم اغمضوها. لئلا يبصروا باعينهم ويسمعوا بآذانهم ويفهموا بقلوبهم ويرجعوا فاشفيهم‎.	27 Gross is the heart of this people; they will not hear with their ears; they have closed their eyes, so they may not see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and be converted, and I heal them.'
28 ‎فليكن معلوما عندكم ان خلاص الله قد أرسل الى الامم وهم سيسمعون.	28 Let it be known to you that this salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen."
29 ولما قال هذا مضى اليهود ولهم مباحثة كثيرة فيما بينهم	29
30 واقام بولس سنتين كاملتين في بيت استأجره لنفسه. وكان يقبل جميع الذين يدخلون اليه	30 He remained for two full years in his lodgings. He received all who came to him,
31 كارزا بملكوت الله ومعلّما بامر الرب يسوع المسيح بكل مجاهرة بلا مانع	31 and with complete assurance and without hindrance he proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ.
