Atti degli Apostoli (اعمال) 26

SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 فقال اغريباس لبولس مأذون لك ان تتكلم لاجل نفسك. حينئذ بسط بولس يده وجعل يحتج‎.	1 Yet truly, Agrippa said to Paul, “It is permitted for you to speak for yourself.” Then Paul, extending his hand, began to offer his defense.
2 ‎اني احسب نفسي سعيدا ايها الملك اغريباس اذ انا مزمع ان احتج اليوم لديك عن كل ما يحاكمني به اليهود‎.	2 “I consider myself blessed, O king Agrippa, that I am to give my defense today before you, about everything of which I am accused by the Jews,
3 ‎لا سيما وانت عالم بجميع العوائد والمسائل التي بين اليهود لذلك التمس منك ان تسمعني بطول الاناة‎.	3 especially since you know everything that pertains to the Jews, both customs and questions. Because of this, I beg you to listen to me patiently.
4 ‎فسيرتي منذ حداثتي التي من البداءة كانت بين امتي في اورشليم يعرفها جميع اليهود	4 And certainly, all the Jews know about my life from my youth, which had its beginning among my own people in Jerusalem.
5 عالمين بي من الاول ان ارادوا ان يشهدوا اني حسب مذهب عبادتنا الاضيق عشت فريسيا‎.	5 They knew me well from the beginning, (if they would be willing to offer testimony) for I lived according to the most determined sect of our religion: as a Pharisee.
6 ‎والآن انا واقف أحاكم على رجاء الوعد الذي صار من الله لآبائنا	6 And now, it is in the hope of the Promise which was made by God to our fathers that I stand subject to judgment.
7 الذي اسباطنا الاثنا عشر يرجون نواله عابدين بالجهد ليلا ونهارا. فمن اجل هذا الرجاء انا أحاكم من اليهود ايها الملك اغريباس‎.	7 It is the Promise that our twelve tribes, worshiping night and day, hope to see. About this hope, O king, I am accused by the Jews.
8 ‎لماذا يعد عندكم امرا لا يصدق ان اقام الله امواتا‎.	8 Why should it be judged so unbelievable with you all that God might raise the dead?
9 ‎فانا ارتأيت في نفسي انه ينبغي ان اصنع امورا كثيرة مضادة لاسم يسوع الناصري‎.	9 And certainly, I myself formerly considered that I ought to act in many ways which are contrary to the name of Jesus the Nazarene.
10 ‎وفعلت ذلك ايضا في اورشليم فحبست في سجون كثيرين من القديسين آخذا السلطان من قبل رؤساء الكهنة. ولما كانوا يقتلون ألقيت قرعة بذلك.	10 This is also how I acted at Jerusalem. And so, I enclosed many holy persons in prison, having received authority from the leaders of the priests. And when they were to be killed, I brought the sentence.
11 وفي كل المجامع كنت اعاقبهم مرارا كثيرة واضطرهم الى التجديف‎. ‎واذ افرط حنقي عليهم كنت اطردهم الى المدن التي في الخارج	11 And in every synagogue, frequently while punishing them, I compelled them to blaspheme. And being all the more maddened against them, I persecuted them, even to foreign cities.
12 ولما كنت ذاهبا في ذلك الى دمشق بسلطان ووصية من رؤساء الكهنة	12 Thereafter, as I was going to Damascus, with authority and permission from the high priest,
13 رأيت في نصف النهار في الطريق ايها الملك نورا من السماء افضل من لمعان الشمس قد ابرق حولي وحول الذاهبين معي‎.	13 at midday, O king, I and those who were also with me, saw along the way a light from heaven shining around me with a splendor greater than that of the sun.
14 ‎فلما سقطنا جميعنا على الارض سمعت صوتا يكلمني ويقول باللغة العبرانية شاول شاول لماذا تضطهدني. صعب عليك ان ترفس مناخس‎.	14 And when we had all fallen down to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me in the Hebrew language: ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goad.’
15 ‎فقلت انا من انت يا سيد فقال انا يسوع الذي انت تضطهده‎.	15 Then I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ And the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.
16 ‎ولكن قم وقف على رجليك لاني لهذا ظهرت لك لانتخبك خادما وشاهدا بما رأيت وبما ساظهر لك به	16 But rise up and stand on your feet. For I appeared to you for this reason: so that I may establish you as a minister and a witness concerning the things that you have seen, and concerning the things that I will show to you:
17 منقذا اياك من الشعب ومن الامم الذين انا الآن ارسلك اليهم	17 rescuing you from the people and the nations to which I am now sending you,
18 لتفتح عيونهم كي يرجعوا من ظلمات الى نور ومن سلطان الشيطان الى الله حتى ينالوا بالايمان بي غفران الخطايا ونصيبا مع المقدسين	18 in order to open their eyes, so that they may be converted from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive the remission of sins and a place among the saints, through the faith that is in me.’
19 من ثم ايها الملك اغريباس لم اكن معاندا للرؤيا السماوية	19 From then on, O king Agrippa, I was not unbelieving to the heavenly vision.
20 بل اخبرت اولا الذين في دمشق وفي اورشليم حتى جميع كورة اليهودية ثم الامم ان يتوبوا ويرجعوا الى الله عاملين اعمالا تليق بالتوبة‎.	20 But I preached, first to those who are at Damascus and at Jerusalem, and then to the entire region of Judea, and to the Gentiles, so that they would repent and convert to God, doing the works that are worthy of repentance.
21 ‎من اجل ذلك امسكني اليهود في الهيكل وشرعوا في قتلي‎.	21 It was for this reason that the Jews, having apprehended me when I was in the temple, attempted to kill me.
22 ‎فاذ حصلت على معونة من الله بقيت الى هذا اليوم شاهدا للصغير والكبير وانا لا اقول شيئا غير ما تكلم الانبياء وموسى انه عتيد ان يكون	22 But having been aided by the help of God, even to this day, I stand witnessing to the small and the great, saying nothing beyond what the Prophets and Moses have said would be in the future:
23 ان يؤلم المسيح يكن هو اول قيامة الاموات مزمعا ان ينادي بنور للشعب وللامم	23 that the Christ would suffer, and that he would be the first from the resurrection of the dead, and that he would bring light to the people and to the nations.”
24 وبينما هو يحتج بهذا قال فستوس بصوت عظيم انت تهذي يا بولس‎. ‎الكتب الكثيرة تحولك الى الهذيان‎.	24 While he was speaking these things and presenting his defense, Festus said with a loud voice: “Paul, you are insane! Too much studying has turned you to insanity.”
25 ‎فقال لست اهذي ايها العزيز فستوس بل انطق بكلمات الصدق والصحو‎.	25 And Paul said: “I am not insane, most excellent Festus, but rather I am speaking words of truth and sobriety.
26 ‎لانه من جهة هذه الامور عالم الملك الذي اكلمه جهارا اذ انا لست اصدق ان يخفى عليه شيء من ذلك. لان هذا لم يفعل في زاوية‎.	26 For the king knows about these things. To him also, I am speaking with constancy. For I think that none of these things are unknown to him. And neither were these things done in a corner.
27 ‎أتؤمن ايها الملك اغريباس بالانبياء. انا اعلم انك تؤمن‎.	27 Do you believe the Prophets, O king Agrippa? I know that you believe.”
28 ‎فقال اغريباس لبولس بقليل تقنعني ان اصير مسيحيا‎.	28 Then Agrippa said to Paul, “To some extent, you persuade me to become a Christian.”
29 ‎فقال بولس كنت اصلّي الى الله انه بقليل وبكثير ليس انت فقط بل ايضا جميع الذين يسمعونني اليوم يصيرون هكذا كما انا ما خلا هذه القيود	29 And Paul said, “I hope to God that, both to a small extent and to a great extent, not only you, but also all those who hear me this day will become just as I also am, except for these chains.”
30 فلما قال هذا قام الملك والوالي وبرنيكي والجالسون معهم‎.	30 And the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and those who were sitting with them.
31 ‎وانصرفوا وهم يكلمون بعضهم بعضا قائلين ان هذا الانسان ليس يفعل شيئا يستحق الموت او القيود‎.	31 And when they had withdrawn, they were speaking among themselves, saying, “This man has done nothing worthy of death, nor of imprisonment.”
32 ‎وقال اغريباس لفستوس كان يمكن ان يطلق هذا الانسان لو لم يكن قد رفع دعواه الى قيصر	32 Then Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been released, if he had not appealed to Caesar.”
