Vangelo secondo Marco (مرقس) 2

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 ثم دخل كفرناحوم ايضا بعد ايام فسمع انه في بيت.	1 When he returned to Capernaum, some time later word went round that he was in the house;
2 وللوقت اجتمع كثيرون حتى لم يعد يسع ولا ما حول الباب. فكان يخاطبهم بالكلمة.	2 and so many people collected that there was no room left, even in front of the door. He was preachingthe word to them
3 وجاءوا اليه مقدمين مفلوجا يحمله اربعة.	3 when some people came bringing him a paralytic carried by four men,
4 واذ لم يقدروا ان يقتربوا اليه من اجل الجمع كشفوا السقف حيث كان وبعدما نقبوه دلّوا السرير الذي كان المفلوج مضطجعا عليه.	4 but as they could not get the man to him through the crowd, they stripped the roof over the place whereJesus was; and when they had made an opening, they lowered the stretcher on which the paralytic lay.
5 فلما رأى يسوع ايمانهم قال للمفلوج يا بنيّ مغفورة لك خطاياك.	5 Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, 'My child, your sins are forgiven.'
6 وكان قوم من الكتبة هناك جالسين يفكرون في قلوبهم	6 Now some scribes were sitting there, and they thought to themselves,
7 لماذا يتكلم هذا هكذا بتجاديف. من يقدر ان يغفر خطايا الا الله وحده.	7 'How can this man talk like that? He is being blasphemous. Who but God can forgive sins?'
8 فللوقت شعر يسوع بروحه انهم يفكرون هكذا في انفسهم فقال لهم لماذا تفكرون بهذا في قلوبكم.	8 And at once, Jesus, inwardly aware that this is what they were thinking, said to them, 'Why do you havethese thoughts in your hearts?
9 أيّما ايسر ان يقال للمفلوج مغفورة لك خطاياك. أم ان يقال قم واحمل سريرك وامش.	9 Which of these is easier: to say to the paralytic, "Your sins are forgiven" or to say, "Get up, pick up your stretcher and walk"?
10 ولكن لكي تعلموا ان لابن الانسان سلطانا على الارض ان يغفر الخطايا. قال للمفلوج	10 But to prove to you that the Son of man has authority to forgive sins on earth' --
11 لك اقول قم واحمل سريرك واذهب الى بيتك.	11 he said to the paralytic-'I order you: get up, pick up your stretcher, and go off home.'
12 فقام للوقت وحمل السرير وخرج قدام الكل حتى بهت الجميع ومجّدوا الله قائلين ما رأينا مثل هذا قط.	12 And the man got up, and at once picked up his stretcher and walked out in front of everyone, so thatthey were al astonished and praised God saying, 'We have never seen anything like this.'
13 ثم خرج ايضا الى البحر. وأتى اليه كل الجمع فعلّمهم.	13 He went out again to the shore of the lake; and al the people came to him, and he taught them.
14 وفيما هو مجتاز رأى لاوي بن حلفى جالسا عند مكان الجباية. فقال له اتبعني. فقام وتبعه.	14 As he was walking along he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office, and he said to him,'Fol ow me.' And he got up and fol owed him.
15 وفيما هو متكئ في بيته كان كثيرون من العشارين والخطاة يتكئون مع يسوع وتلاميذه لانهم كانوا كثيرين وتبعوه.	15 When Jesus was at dinner in his house, a number of tax collectors and sinners were also sitting attable with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many of them among his fol owers.
16 واما الكتبة والفريسيون فلما رأوه يأكل مع العشارين والخطاة قالوا لتلاميذه ما باله يأكل ويشرب مع العشارين والخطاة.	16 When the scribes of the Pharisee party saw him eating with sinners and tax col ectors, they said to hisdisciples, 'Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?'
17 فلما سمع يسوع قال لهم. لا يحتاج الاصحاء الى طبيب بل المرضى. لم آت لادعو ابرارا بل خطاة الى التوبة.	17 When Jesus heard this he said to them, 'It is not the healthy who need the doctor, but the sick. I cameto cal not the upright, but sinners.'
18 وكان تلاميذ يوحنا والفريسيين يصومون. فجاءوا وقالوا له لماذا يصوم تلاميذ يوحنا والفريسيين واما تلاميذك فلا يصومون.	18 John's disciples and the Pharisees were keeping a fast, when some people came to him and said tohim, 'Why is it that John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not?'
19 فقال لهم يسوع هل يستطيع بنو العرس ان يصوموا والعريس معهم. ما دام العريس معهم لا يستطيعون ان يصوموا.	19 Jesus replied, 'Surely the bridegroom's attendants cannot fast while the bridegroom is still with them?As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
20 ولكن ستأتي ايام حين يرفع العريس عنهم فحينئذ يصومون في تلك الايام.	20 But the time wil come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then, on that day, they wilfast.
21 ليس احد يخيط رقعة من قطعة جديدة على ثوب عتيق وإلا فالملء الجديد ياخذ من العتيق فيصير الخرق اردأ.	21 No one sews a piece of unshrunken cloth on an old cloak; otherwise, the patch pul s away from it, thenew from the old, and the tear gets worse.
22 وليس احد يجعل خمرا جديدة في زقاق عتيقة لئلا تشق الخمر الجديدة الزقاق فالخمر تنصب والزقاق تتلف. بل يجعلون خمرا جديدة في زقاق جديدة	22 And nobody puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise, the wine wil burst the skins, and the wine is lost and the skins too. No! New wine into fresh skins!'
23 واجتاز في السبت بين الزروع. فابتدأ تلاميذه يقطفون السنابل وهم سائرون.	23 It happened that one Sabbath day he was taking a walk through the cornfields, and his disciplesbegan to make a path by plucking ears of corn.
24 فقال له الفريسيون. انظر. لماذا يفعلون في السبت ما لا يحل.	24 And the Pharisees said to him, 'Look, why are they doing something on the Sabbath day that isforbidden?'
25 فقال لهم أما قرأتم قط ما فعله داود حين احتاج وجاع هو والذين معه.	25 And he replied, 'Have you never read what David did in his time of need when he and his fol owerswere hungry-
26 كيف دخل بيت الله في ايام ابيأثار رئيس الكهنة واكل خبز التقدمة الذي لا يحل اكله إلا للكهنة واعطى الذين كانوا معه ايضا.	26 how he went into the house of God when Abiathar was high priest, and ate the loaves of the offeringwhich only the priests are al owed to eat, and how he also gave some to the men with him?'
27 ثم قال لهم السبت انما جعل لاجل الانسان لا الانسان لاجل السبت.	27 And he said to them, 'The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath;
28 اذا ابن الانسان هو رب السبت ايضا	28 so the Son of man is master even of the Sabbath.'
