Luke 16

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 And he said also to his disciples: There was a certain rich man who had a steward: and the same was accused unto him, that he had wasted his goods.	1 وقال ايضا لتلاميذه كان انسان غني له وكيل فوشي به اليه بانه يبذّر امواله.
2 And he called him, and said to him: How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship: for now thou canst be steward no longer.	2 فدعاه وقال له ما هذا الذي اسمع عنك. اعط حساب وكالتك لانك لا تقدر ان تكون وكيلا بعد.
3 And the steward said within himself: What shall I do, because my lord taketh away from me the stewardship? To dig I am not able; to beg I am ashamed.	3 فقال الوكيل في نفسه ماذا افعل. لان سيدي يأخذ مني الوكالة. لست استطيع ان انقب واستحي ان استعطي.
4 I know what I will do, that when I shall be removed from the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.	4 قد علمت ماذا افعل حتى اذا عزلت عن الوكالة يقبلوني في بيوتهم.
5 Therefore calling together every one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first: How much dost thou owe my lord?	5 فدعا كل واحد من مديوني سيده وقال للأول كم عليك لسيدي.
6 But he said: An hundred barrels of oil. And he said to him: Take thy bill and sit down quickly, and write fifty.	6 فقال مئة بث زيت. فقال له خذ صكك واجلس عاجلا واكتب خمسين.
7 Then he said to another: And how much dost thou owe? Who said: An hundred quarters of wheat. He said to him: Take thy bill, and write eighty.	7 ثم قال لآخر وانت كم عليك. فقال مئة كرّ قمح. فقال له خذ صكك واكتب ثمانين.
8 And the lord commended the unjust steward, forasmuch as he had done wisely: for the children of this world are wiser in their generation than the children of light.	8 فمدح السيد وكيل الظلم اذ بحكمة فعل. لان ابناء هذا الدهر احكم من ابناء النور في جيلهم.
9 And I say to you: Make unto you friends of the mammon of iniquity; that when you shall fail, they may receive you into everlasting dwellings.	9 وانا اقول لكم اصنعوا لكم اصدقاء بمال الظلم حتى اذا فنيتم يقبلونكم في المظال الابدية.
10 He that is faithful in that which is least, is faithful also in that which is greater: and he that is unjust in that which is little, is unjust also in that which is greater.	10 الامين في القليل امين ايضا في الكثير. والظالم في القليل ظالم ايضا في الكثير.
11 If then you have not been faithful in the unjust mammon; who will trust you with that which is the true?	11 فان لم تكونوا امناء في مال الظلم فمن يأتمنكم على الحق.
12 And if you have not been faithful in that which is another's; who will give you that which is your own?	12 وان لم تكونوا امناء في ما هو للغير فمن يعطيكم ما هو لكم.
13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.	13 لا يقدر خادم ان يخدم سيدين. لانه اما ان يبغض الواحد ويحب الآخر او يلازم الواحد ويحتقر الآخر. لا تقدرون ان تخدموا الله والمال
14 Now the Pharisees, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.	14 وكان الفريسيون ايضا يسمعون هذا كله وهم محبون للمال فاستهزأوا به.
15 And he said to them: You are they who justify yourselves before men, but God knoweth your hearts; for that which is high to men, is an abomination before God.	15 فقال لهم انتم الذين تبررون انفسكم قدام الناس. ولكن الله يعرف قلوبكم. ان المستعلي عند الناس هو رجس قدام الله
16 The law and the prophets were until John; from that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every one useth violence towards it.	16 كان الناموس والانبياء الى يوحنا. ومن ذلك الوقت يبشر بملكوت الله وكل واحد يغتصب نفسه اليه.
17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fall.	17 ولكن زوال السماء والارض ايسر من ان تسقط نقطة واحدة من الناموس.
18 Every one that putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth her that is put away from her husband, commmitteth adultery.	18 كل من يطلّق امرأته ويتزوج باخرى يزني وكل من يتزوج بمطلّقة من رجل يزني
19 There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen; and feasted sumptuously every day.	19 كان انسان غني وكان يلبس الارجوان والبز وهو يتنعم كل يوم مترفها.
20 And there was a certain beggar, named Lazarus, who lay at his gate, full of sores,	20 وكان مسكين اسمه لعازر الذي طرح عند بابه مضروبا بالقروح.
21 Desiring to be filled with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table, and no one did give him; moreover the dogs came, and licked his sores.	21 ويشتهي ان يشبع من الفتات الساقط من مائدة الغني. بل كانت الكلاب تأتي وتلحس قروحه.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom. And the rich man also died: and he was buried in hell.	22 فمات المسكين وحملته الملائكة الى حضن ابراهيم. ومات الغني ايضا ودفن.
23 And lifting up his eyes when he was in torments, he saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom:	23 فرفع عينيه في الهاوية وهو في العذاب ورأى ابراهيم من بعيد ولعازر في حضنه.
24 And he cried, and said: Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, to cool my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.	24 فنادى وقال يا ابي ابراهيم ارحمني وارسل لعازر ليبل طرف اصبعه بماء ويبرّد لساني لاني معذب في هذا اللهيب.
25 And Abraham said to him: Son, remember that thou didst receive good things in thy lifetime, and likewise Lazareth evil things, but now he is comforted; and thou art tormented.	25 فقال ابراهيم يا ابني اذكر انك استوفيت خيراتك في حياتك وكذلك لعازر البلايا. والآن هو يتعزى وانت تتعذب.
26 And besides all this, between us and you, there is fixed a great chaos: so that they who would pass from hence to you, cannot, nor from thence come hither.	26 وفوق هذا كله بيننا وبينكم هوّة عظيمة قد أثبتت حتى ان الذين يريدون العبور من ههنا اليكم لا يقدرون ولا الذين من هناك يجتازون الينا.
27 And he said: Then, father, I beseech thee, that thou wouldst send him to my father's house, for I have five brethren,	27 فقال اسألك اذا يا ابت ان ترسله الى بيت ابي.
28 That he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torments.	28 لان لي خمسة اخوة. حتى يشهد لهم لكي لا يأتوا هم ايضا الى موضع العذاب هذا.
29 And Abraham said to him: They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.	29 قال له ابراهيم عندهم موسى والانبياء. ليسمعوا منهم.
30 But he said: No, father Abraham: but if one went to them from the dead, they will do penance.	30 فقال لا يا ابي ابراهيم. بل اذا مضى اليهم واحد من الاموات يتوبون.
31 And he said to him: If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they believe, if one rise again from the dead.	31 فقال له ان كانوا لا يسمعون من موسى والانبياء ولا ان قام واحد من الاموات يصدقون
