1 Corinthians 4

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Accordingly, let man consider us to be ministers of Christ and attendants of the mysteries of God.	1 هكذا فليحسبنا الانسان كخدام المسيح ووكلاء سرائر الله.
2 Here and now, it is required of attendants that each one be found to be faithful.	2 ثم يسأل في الوكلاء لكي يوجد الانسان امينا.
3 But as for me, it is such a small thing to be judged by you, or by the age of mankind. And neither do I judge myself.	3 واما انا فاقلّ شيء عندي ان يحكم فيّ منكم او من يوم بشر. بل لست احكم في نفسي ايضا.
4 For I have nothing on my conscience. But I am not justified by this. For the Lord is the One who judges me.	4 فاني لست اشعر بشيء في ذاتي. لكنني لست بذلك مبررا. ولكن الذي يحكم فيّ هو الرب.
5 And so, do not choose to judge before the time, until the Lord returns. He will illuminate the hidden things of the darkness, and he will make manifest the decisions of hearts. And then each one shall have praise from God.	5 اذا لا تحكموا في شيء قبل الوقت حتى يأتي الرب الذي سينير خفايا الظلام ويظهر آراء القلوب. وحينئذ يكون المدح لكل واحد من الله
6 And so, brothers, I have presented these things in myself and in Apollo, for your sakes, so that you may learn, through us, that no one should be inflated against one person and for another, not beyond what has been written.	6 فهذا ايها الاخوة حولته تشبيها الى نفسي والى أبلوس من اجلكم لكي تتعلّموا فينا ان لا تفتكروا فوق ما هو مكتوب كي لا ينتفخ احد لاجل الواحد على الآخر.
7 For what distinguishes you from another? And what do you have that you have not received? But if you have received it, why do you glory, as if you had not received it?	7 لانه من يميّزك واي شيء لك لم تأخذه. وان كنت قد اخذت فلماذا تفتخر كانك لم تأخذ.
8 So, now you have been filled, and now you have been made wealthy, as if to reign without us? But I wish that you would reign, so that we, too, might reign with you!	8 انكم قد شبعتم قد استغنيتم. ملكتم بدوننا. وليتكم ملكتم لنملك نحن ايضا معكم.
9 For I think that God has presented us as the last Apostles, as those destined for death. For we have been made into a spectacle for the world, and for Angels, and for men.	9 فاني ارى ان الله ابرزنا نحن الرسل آخرين كاننا محكوم علينا بالموت. لاننا صرنا منظرا للعالم للملائكة والناس.
10 So we are fools because of Christ, but you are discerning in Christ? We are weak, but you are strong? You are noble, but we are ignoble?	10 نحن جهال من اجل المسيح واما انتم فحكماء في المسيح. نحن ضعفاء واما انتم فاقوياء. انتم مكرمون واما نحن فبلا كرامة.
11 Even to this very hour, we hunger and thirst, and we are naked and repeatedly beaten, and we are unsteady.	11 الى هذه الساعة نجوع ونعطش ونعرى ونلكم وليس لنا اقامة.
12 And we labor, working with our own hands. We are slandered, and so we bless. We suffer and endure persecution.	12 ونتعب عاملين بايدينا. نشتم فنبارك. نضطهد فنحتمل.
13 We are cursed, and so we pray. We have become like the refuse of this world, like the reside of everything, even until now.	13 يفترى علينا فنعظ. صرنا كاقذار العالم ووسخ كل شيء الى الآن.
14 I am not writing these things in order to confound you, but in order to admonish you, as my dearest sons.	14 ليس لكي اخجلكم اكتب بهذا بل كاولادي الاحباء انذركم.
15 For you might have ten thousand instructors in Christ, but not so many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, through the Gospel, I have begotten you.	15 لانه وان كان لكم ربوات من المرشدين في المسيح لكن ليس آباء كثيرون. لاني انا ولدتكم في المسيح يسوع بالانجيل.
16 Therefore, I beg you, be imitators of me, just as I am of Christ.	16 فاطلب اليكم ان تكونوا متمثلين بي.
17 For this reason, I have sent you Timothy, who is my dearest son, and who is faithful in the Lord. He will remind you of my ways, which are in Christ Jesus, just as I teach everywhere, in every church.	17 لذلك ارسلت اليكم تيموثاوس الذي هو ابني الحبيب والامين في الرب الذي يذكركم بطرقي في المسيح كما اعلّم في كل مكان في كل كنيسة.
18 Certain persons have become inflated in thinking that I would not return to you.	18 فانتفخ قوم كاني لست آتيا اليكم.
19 But I will return to you soon, if the Lord is willing. And I will consider, not the words of those who are inflated, but the virtue.	19 ولكني سآتي اليكم سريعا ان شاء الرب فسأعرف ليس كلام الذين انتفخوا بل قوّتهم.
20 For the kingdom of God is not in words, but in virtue.	20 لان ملكوت الله ليس بكلام بل بقوة.
21 What would you prefer? Should I return to you with a rod, or with charity and a spirit of meekness?	21 ماذا تريدون. أبعصا آتي اليكم ام بالمحبة وروح الوداعة
