Acts of the Apostles 21

KING JAMES BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 And it came to pass, that after we were gotten from them, and had launched, we came with a straight course unto Coos, and the day following unto Rhodes, and from thence unto Patara:	1 ولما انفصلنا عنهم اقلعنا وجئنا متوجهين بالاستقامة الى كوس وفي اليوم التالي الى رودس. ومن هناك الى باترا‎.
2 And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia, we went aboard, and set forth.	2 ‎فاذ وجدنا سفينة عابرة الى فينيقية صعدنا اليها واقلعنا‎.
3 Now when we had discovered Cyprus, we left it on the left hand, and sailed into Syria, and landed at Tyre: for there the ship was to unlade her burden.	3 ‎ثم اطلعنا على قبرس وتركناها يسرة وسافرنا الى سورية واقبلنا الى صور لان هناك كانت السفينة تضع وسقها‎.
4 And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.	4 ‎واذ وجدنا التلاميذ مكثنا هناك سبعة ايام. وكانوا يقولون لبولس بالروح ان لا يصعد الى اورشليم‎.
5 And when we had accomplished those days, we departed and went our way; and they all brought us on our way, with wives and children, till we were out of the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed.	5 ‎ولكن لما استكملنا الايام خرجنا ذاهبين وهم جميعا يشيعوننا مع النساء والاولاد الى خارج المدينة. فجثونا على ركبنا على الشاطئ وصلّينا‎.
6 And when we had taken our leave one of another, we took ship; and they returned home again.	6 ‎ولما ودعنا بعضنا بعضا صعدنا الى السفينة. واما هم فرجعوا الى خاصتهم
7 And when we had finished our course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day.	7 ولما اكملنا السفر في البحر من صور اقبلنا الى بتولمايس فسلمنا على الاخوة ومكثنا عندهم يوما واحدا‎.
8 And the next day we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him.	8 ‎ثم خرجنا في الغد نحن رفقاء بولس وجئنا الى قيصرية فدخلنا بيت فيلبس المبشر اذ كان واحدا من السبعة واقمنا عنده‎.
9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.	9 ‎وكان لهذا اربع بنات عذارى كنّ يتنبأن‎.
10 And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus.	10 ‎وبينما نحن مقيمون اياما كثيرة انحدر من اليهودية نبي اسمه اغابوس‎.
11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.	11 ‎فجاء الينا واخذ منطقة بولس وربط يدي نفسه ورجليه وقال هذا يقوله الروح القدس. الرجل الذي له هذه المنطقة هكذا سيربطه اليهود في اورشليم ويسلمونه الى ايدي الامم‎.
12 And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.	12 ‎فلما سمعنا هذا طلبنا اليه نحن والذين من المكان ان لا يصعد الى اورشليم‎.
13 Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.	13 ‎فاجاب بولس ماذا تفعلون تبكون وتكسرون قلبي لاني مستعد ليس ان أربط فقط بل ان اموت ايضا في اورشليم لاجل اسم الرب يسوع‎.
14 And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done.	14 ‎ولما لم يقنع سكتنا قائلين لتكن مشيئة الرب‎.
15 And after those days we took up our carriages, and went up to Jerusalem.	15 ‎وبعد تلك الايام تأهبنا وصعدنا الى اورشليم‎.
16 There went with us also certain of the disciples of Caesarea, and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.	16 ‎وجاء ايضا معنا من قيصرية اناس من التلاميذ ذاهبين بنا الى مناسون وهو رجل قبرسي تلميذ قديم لننزل عنده
17 And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.	17 ولما وصلنا الى اورشليم قبلنا الاخوة بفرح‎.
18 And the day following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the elders were present.	18 ‎وفي الغد دخل بولس معنا الى يعقوب وحضر جميع المشايخ‎.
19 And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.	19 ‎فبعدما سلم عليهم طفق يحدثهم شيئا فشيئا بكل ما فعله الله بين الامم بواسطة خدمته‎.
20 And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the law:	20 ‎فلما سمعوا كانوا يمجدون الرب. وقالوا له انت ترى ايها الاخ كم يوجد ربوة من اليهود الذين آمنوا وهم جميعا غيورون للناموس‎.
21 And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.	21 ‎وقد أخبروا عنك انك تعلّم جميع اليهود الذين بين الامم الارتداد عن موسى قائلا ان لا يختنوا اولادهم ولا يسلكوا حسب العوائد‎.
22 What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come.	22 ‎فاذا ماذا يكون. لا بد على كل حال ان يجتمع الجمهور لانهم سيسمعون انك قد جئت‎.
23 Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which have a vow on them;	23 ‎فافعل هذا الذي نقول لك. عندنا اربعة رجال عليهم نذر‎.
24 Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.	24 ‎خذ هؤلاء وتطهر معهم وانفق عليهم ليحلقوا رؤوسهم فيعلم الجميع ان ليس شيء مما أخبروا عنك بل تسلك انت ايضا حافظا للناموس‎.
25 As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.	25 ‎واما من جهة الذين آمنوا من الامم فارسلنا نحن اليهم وحكمنا ان لا يحفظوا شيئا مثل ذلك سوى ان يحافظوا على انفسهم مما ذبح للاصنام ومن الدم والمخنوق والزنى‎.
26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purifcation, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them.	26 ‎حينئذ اخذ بولس الرجال في الغد وتطهر معهم ودخل الهيكل مخبرا بكمال ايام التطهير الى ان يقرب عن كل واحد منهم القربان
27 And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him,	27 ولما قاربت الايام السبعة ان تتم رآه اليهود الذين من اسيا في الهيكل فاهاجوا كل الجمع والقوا عليه الايادي
28 Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place.	28 صارخين يا ايها الرجال الاسرائيليون اعينوا. هذا هو الرجل الذي يعلّم الجميع في كل مكان ضدا للشعب والناموس وهذا الموضع حتى ادخل يونانيين ايضا الى الهيكل ودنس هذا الموضع المقدس‎.
29 (For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)	29 ‎لانهم كانوا قد رأوا معه في المدينة تروفيمس الافسسي فكانوا يظنون ان بولس ادخله الى الهيكل‎.
30 And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut.	30 ‎فهاجت المدينة كلها وتراكض الشعب وامسكوا بولس وجروه خارج الهيكل وللوقت اغلقت الابواب‎.
31 And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.	31 ‎وبينما هم يطلبون ان يقتلوه نما خبر الى امير الكتيبة ان اورشليم كلها اضطربت‎.
32 Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down unto them: and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they left beating of Paul.	32 ‎فللوقت اخذ عسكرا وقواد مئات وركض اليهم. فلما رأوا الامير والعسكر كفوا عن ضرب بولس
33 Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done.	33 حينئذ اقترب الامير وامسكه وامر ان يقيد بسلسلتين وطفق يستخبر ترى من يكون وماذا فعل‎.
34 And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle.	34 ‎وكان البعض يصرخون بشيء والبعض بشيء آخر في الجمع. ولما لم يقدر ان يعلم اليقين لسبب الشغب امر ان يذهب به الى المعسكر‎.
35 And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne of the soldiers for the violence of the people.	35 ‎ولما صار على الدرج اتفق ان العسكر حمله بسبب عنف الجمع‎.
36 For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him.	36 ‎لان جمهور الشعب كانوا يتبعونه صارخين خذه
37 And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek?	37 واذ قارب بولس ان يدخل المعسكر قال للامير ايجوز لي ان اقول لك شيئا. فقال أتعرف اليونانية‏‎.
38 Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers?	38 ‎أفلست انت المصري الذي صنع قبل هذه الايام فتنة واخرج الى البرية اربعة الآلاف الرجل من القتلة‎.
39 But Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people.	39 ‎فقال بولس انا رجل يهودي طرسوسي من اهل مدينة غير دنية من كيليكية. والتمس منك ان تأذن لي ان اكلم الشعب‎.
40 And when he had given him licence, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,	40 ‎فلما اذن له وقف بولس على الدرج واشار بيده الى الشعب. فصار سكوت عظيم. فنادى باللغة العبرانية قائلا
