Acts of the Apostles 10

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 And there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, a centurion of that which is called the Italian band;	1 وكان في قيصرية رجل اسمه كرنيليوس قائد مئة من الكتيبة التي تدعى الايطالية‎.
2 A religious man, and fearing God with all his house, giving much alms to the people, and always praying to God.	2 ‎وهو تقي وخائف الله مع جميع بيته يصنع حسنات كثيرة للشعب ويصلّي الى الله في كل حين‎.
3 This man saw in a vision manifestly, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God coming in unto him, and saying to him: Cornelius.	3 ‎فرأى ظاهرا في رؤيا نحو الساعة التاسعة من النهار ملاكا من الله داخلا اليه وقائلا له يا كرنيليوس‎.
4 And he, beholding him, being seized with fear, said: What is it, Lord? And he said to him: Thy prayers and thy alms are ascended for a memorial in the sight of God.	4 ‎فلما شخص اليه ودخله الخوف قال ماذا يا سيد. فقال له. صلواتك وصدقاتك صعدت تذكارا امام الله‎.
5 And now send men to Joppe, and call hither one Simon, who is surnamed Peter:	5 ‎والآن ارسل الى يافا رجالا واستدع سمعان الملقب بطرس‎.
6 He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side. He will tell thee what thou must do.	6 ‎انه نازل عند سمعان رجل دباغ بيته عند البحر. هو يقول لك ماذا ينبغي ان تفعل‎.
7 And when the angel who spoke to him was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a soldier who feared the Lord, of them that were under him.	7 ‎فلما انطلق الملاك الذي كان يكلم كرنيليوس نادى اثنين من خدامه وعسكريا تقيا من الذين كانوا يلازمونه
8 To whom when he had related all, he sent them to Joppe.	8 واخبرهم بكل شيء وارسلهم الى يافا
9 And on the next day, whilst they were going on their journey, and drawing nigh to the city, Peter went up to the higher parts of the house to pray, about the sixth hour.	9 ثم في الغد فيما هم يسافرون ويقتربون الى المدينة صعد بطرس على السطح ليصلّي نحو الساعة السادسة‎.
10 And being hungry, he was desirous to taste somewhat. And as they were preparing, there came upon him an ecstasy of mind.	10 ‎فجاع كثيرا واشتهى ان يأكل. وبينما هم يهيئون له وقعت عليه غيبة‎.
11 And he saw the heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending, as it were a great linen sheet let down by the four corners from heaven to the earth:	11 ‎فرأى السماء مفتوحة واناء نازلا عليه مثل ملاءة عظيمة مربوطة باربعة اطراف ومدلاة على الارض‎.
12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of the air.	12 ‎وكان فيها كل دواب الارض والوحوش والزحافات وطيور السماء‎.
13 And there came a voice to him: Arise, Peter; kill and eat.	13 ‎وصار اليه صوت قم يا بطرس اذبح وكل‎.
14 But Peter said: Far be it from me; for I never did eat any thing that is common and unclean.	14 ‎فقال بطرس كلا يا رب لاني لم آكل قط شيئا دنسا او نجسا‎.
15 And the voice spoke to him again the second time: That which God hath cleansed, do not thou call common.	15 ‎فصار اليه ايضا صوت ثانية ما طهره الله لا تدنسه انت‎.
16 And this was done thrice; and presently the vessel was taken up into heaven.	16 ‎وكان هذا على ثلاث مرات ثم ارتفع الاناء ايضا الى السماء
17 Now, whilst Peter was doubting within himself, what the vision that he had seen should mean, behold the men who were sent from Cornelius, inquiring for Simon's house, stood at the gate.	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
18 And when they had called, they asked, if Simon, who is surnamed Peter, were lodged there.	18 ونادوا يستخبرون هل سمعان الملقب بطرس نازل هناك‎.
19 And as Peter was thinking of the vision, the Spirit said to him: Behold three men seek thee.	19 ‎وبينما بطرس متفكر في الرؤيا قال له الروح هوذا ثلاثة رجال يطلبونك‎.
20 Arise, therefore, get thee down and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.	20 ‎لكن قم وانزل واذهب معهم غير مرتاب في شيء لاني انا قد ارسلتهم.
21 Then Peter, going down to the men, said: Behold, I am he whom you seek; what is the cause for which you are come?	21 فنزل بطرس الى الرجال الذين أرسلوا اليه من قبل كرنيليوس وقال ها انا الذي تطلبونه. ما هو السبب الذي حضرتم لاجله‎.
22 Who said: Cornelius, a centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and having good testimony from all the nation of the Jews, received an answer of an holy angel, to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.	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.
23 Then bringing them in, he lodged them. And the day following he arose, and went with them: and some of the brethren from Joppe accompanied him.	23 ‎فدعاهم الى داخل واضافهم. ثم في الغد خرج بطرس معهم واناس من الاخوة الذين من يافا رافقوه
24 And the morrow after, he entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, having called together his kinsmen and special friends.	24 وفي الغد دخلوا قيصرية. واما كرنيليوس فكان ينتظرهم وقد دعا انسباءه واصدقاءه الاقربين‎.
25 And it came to pass, that when Peter was come in, Cornelius came to meet him, Cornelius came to meet him, and falling at his feet adored.	25 ‎ولما دخل بطرس استقبله كرنيليوس وسجد واقعا على قدميه‎.
26 But Peter lifted him up, saying: Arise, I myself also am a man.	26 ‎فاقامه بطرس قائلا قم انا ايضا انسان‎.
27 And talking with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.	27 ‎ثم دخل وهو يتكلم معه ووجد كثيرين مجتمعين‎.
28 And he said to them: You know how abominable it is for a man that is a Jew, to keep company or to come unto one of another nation: but God hath shewed to me, to call no man common or unclean.	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.
29 For which cause, making no doubt, I came when I was sent for. I ask, therefore, for what cause you have sent for me?	29 ‎فلذلك جئت من دون مناقضة اذ استدعيتموني. فاستخبركم لاي سبب استدعيتموني‎.
30 And Cornelius said: Four days ago, unto this hour, I was praying in my house, at the ninth hour, and behold a man stood before me in white apparel, and said:	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
31 Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.	31 وقال يا كرنيليوس سمعت صلاتك وذكرت صدقاتك امام الله‎.
32 Send therefore to Joppe, and call hither Simon, who is surnamed Peter: he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea side.	32 ‎فارسل الى يافا واستدعي سمعان الملقب بطرس. انه نازل في بيت سمعان رجل دباغ عند البحر. فهو متى جاء يكلمك‎.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee: and thou hast done well in coming. Now therefore all we are present in thy sight, to hear all things whatsoever are commanded thee by the Lord.	33 ‎فارسلت اليك حالا. وانت فعلت حسنا اذ جئت. والآن نحن جميعا حاضرون امام الله لنسمع جميع ما امرك به الله
34 And Peter opening his mouth, said: In very deed I perceive, that God is not a respecter of persons.	34 ففتح بطرس فاه وقال. بالحق انا اجد ان الله لا يقبل الوجوه‎.
35 But in every nation, he that feareth him, and worketh justice, is acceptable to him.	35 ‎بل في كل امة الذي يتقيه ويصنع البر مقبول عنده
36 God sent the word to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all.)	36 الكلمة التي ارسلها الى بني اسرائيل يبشر بالسلام بيسوع المسيح. هذا هو رب الكل‎.
37 You know the word which hath been published through all Judea: for it began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached,	37 ‎انتم تعلمون الامر الذي صار في كل اليهودية مبتدئا من الجليل بعد المعمودية التي كرز بها يوحنا‎.
38 Jesus of Nazareth: how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost, and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.	38 ‎يسوع الذي من الناصرة كيف مسحه الله بالروح القدس والقوة الذي جال يصنع خيرا ويشفي جميع المتسلط عليهم ابليس لان الله كان معه‎.
39 And we are witnesses of all things that he did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom they killed, hanging him upon a tree.	39 ‎ونحن شهود بكل ما فعل في كورة اليهودية وفي اورشليم. الذي ايضا قتلوه معلقين اياه على خشبة‎.
40 Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made manifest,	40 ‎هذا اقامه الله في اليوم الثالث واعطى ان يصير ظاهرا
41 Not to all the people, but to witnesses preordained by God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he arose again from the dead;	41 ليس لجميع الشعب بل لشهود سبق الله فانتخبهم. لنا نحن الذين اكلنا وشربنا معه بعد قيامته من الاموات‎.
42 And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he who was appointed by God, to be judge of the living and of the dead.	42 ‎واوصانا ان نكرز للشعب ونشهد بان هذا هو المعين من الله ديانا للاحياء والاموات‎.
43 To him all the prophets give testimony, that by his name all receive remission of sins, who believe in him.	43 ‎له يشهد جميع الانبياء ان كل من يؤمن به ينال باسمه غفران الخطايا
44 While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them that heard the word.	44 فبينما بطرس يتكلم بهذه الامور حل الروح القدس على جميع الذين كانوا يسمعون الكلمة‎.
45 And the faithful of the circumcision, who came with Peter, were astonished, for that the grace of the Holy Ghost was poured out upon the Gentiles also.	45 ‎فاندهش المؤمنون الذين من اهل الختان كل من جاء مع بطرس لان موهبة الروح القدس قد انسكبت على الامم ايضا‎.
46 For they heard them speaking with tongues, and magnifying God.	46 ‎لانهم كانوا يسمعونهم يتكلمون بألسنة ويعظمون الله. حينئذ اجاب بطرس
47 Then Peter answered: Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Ghost, as well as we?	47 أترى يستطيع احد ان يمنع الماء حتى لا يعتمد هؤلاء الذين قبلوا الروح القدس كما نحن ايضا‎.
48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then they desired him to tarry with them some days.	48 ‎وامر ان يعتمدوا باسم الرب. حينئذ سألوه ان يمكث اياما
