Atti degli Apostoli (اعمال) 18

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 وبعد هذا مضى بولس من اثينا وجاء الى كورنثوس‎.	1 After this he left Athens and went to Corinth.
2 ‎فوجد يهوديا اسمه اكيلا بنطي الجنس كان قد جاء حديثا من ايطالية وبريسكلا امراته. لان كلوديوس كان قد امر ان يمضي جميع اليهود من رومية. فجاء اليهما‎.	2 There he met a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla because Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome. He went to visit them
3 ‎ولكونه من صناعتهما اقام عندهما وكان يعمل لانهما كانا في صناعتهما خياميّين‎.	3 and, because he practiced the same trade, stayed with them and worked, for they were tentmakers by trade.
4 ‎وكان يحاج في المجمع كل سبت ويقنع يهودا ويونانيين‎.	4 Every sabbath, he entered into discussions in the synagogue, attempting to convince both Jews and Greeks.
5 ‎ولما انحدر سيلا وتيموثاوس من مكدونية كان بولس منحصرا بالروح وهو يشهد لليهود بالمسيح يسوع‎.	5 When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul began to occupy himself totally with preaching the word, testifying to the Jews that the Messiah was Jesus.
6 ‎واذ كانوا يقاومون ويجدفون نفض ثيابه وقال لهم دمكم على رؤوسكم. انا بري. من الآن اذهب الى الامم‎.	6 When they opposed him and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them, "Your blood be on your heads! I am clear of responsibility. From now on I will go to the Gentiles."
7 ‎فانتقل من هناك وجاء الى بيت رجل اسمه يوستس كان متعبدا لله وكان بيته ملاصقا للمجمع‎.	7 So he left there and went to a house belonging to a man named Titus Justus, a worshiper of God; his house was next to a synagogue.
8 ‎وكريسبس رئيس المجمع آمن بالرب مع جميع بيته. وكثيرون من الكورنثيين اذ سمعوا آمنوا واعتمدوا	8 Crispus, the synagogue official, came to believe in the Lord along with his entire household, and many of the Corinthians who heard believed and were baptized.
9 فقال الرب لبولس برؤيا في الليل لا تخف بل تكلم ولا تسكت‎.	9 One night in a vision the Lord said to Paul, "Do not be afraid. Go on speaking, and do not be silent,
10 ‎لاني انا معك ولا يقع بك احد ليؤذيك. لان لي شعبا كثيرا في هذه المدينة‎.	10 for I am with you. No one will attack and harm you, for I have many people in this city."
11 ‎فاقام سنة وستة اشهر يعلّم بينهم بكلمة الله	11 He settled there for a year and a half and taught the word of God among them.
12 ولما كان غاليون يتولى اخائية قام اليهود بنفس واحدة على بولس وأتوا به الى كرسي الولاية	12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews rose up together against Paul and brought him to the tribunal,
13 قائلين ان هذا يستميل الناس ان يعبدوا الله بخلاف الناموس‎.	13 saying, "This man is inducing people to worship God contrary to the law."
14 ‎واذ كان بولس مزمعا ان يفتح فاه قال غاليون لليهود لو كان ظلما او خبثا رديّا ايها اليهود لكنت بالحق قد احتملتكم‎.	14 When Paul was about to reply, Gallio spoke to the Jews, "If it were a matter of some crime or malicious fraud, I should with reason hear the complaint of you Jews;
15 ‎ولكن اذا كان مسئلة عن كلمة واسماء وناموسكم فتبصرون انتم‎. ‎لاني لست اشاء ان اكون قاضيا لهذه الامور‎.	15 but since it is a question of arguments over doctrine and titles and your own law, see to it yourselves. I do not wish to be a judge of such matters."
16 ‎فطردهم من الكرسي‎.	16 And he drove them away from the tribunal.
17 ‎فاخذ جميع اليونانيين سوستانيس رئيس المجمع وضربوه قدام الكرسي ولم يهم غاليون شيء من ذلك	17 They all seized Sosthenes, the synagogue official, and beat him in full view of the tribunal. But none of this was of concern to Gallio.
18 واما بولس فلبث ايضا اياما كثيرة ثم ودع الاخوة وسافر في البحر الى سورية ومعه بريسكلا واكيلا بعدما حلق راسه في كنخريا. لانه كان عليه نذر‎.	18 Paul remained for quite some time, and after saying farewell to the brothers he sailed for Syria, together with Priscilla and Aquila. At Cenchreae he had his hair cut because he had taken a vow.
19 ‎فاقبل الى افسس وتركهما هناك. واما هو فدخل المجمع وحاج اليهود.	19 When they reached Ephesus, he left them there, while he entered the synagogue and held discussions with the Jews.
20 واذ كانوا يطلبون ان يمكث عندهم زمانا اطول لم يجب‎.	20 Although they asked him to stay for a longer time, he did not consent,
21 ‎بل ودعهم قائلا ينبغي على كل حال ان اعمل العيد القادم في اورشليم. ولكن سارجع اليكم ايضا ان شاء الله. فاقلع من افسس‎.	21 but as he said farewell he promised, "I shall come back to you again, God willing." Then he set sail from Ephesus.
22 ‎ولما نزل في قيصرية صعد وسلم على الكنيسة ثم انحدر الى انطاكية.	22 Upon landing at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the church and then went down to Antioch.
23 وبعدما صرف زمانا خرج واجتاز بالتتابع في كورة غلاطية وفريجية يشدد جميع التلاميذ	23 After staying there some time, he left and traveled in orderly sequence through the Galatian country and Phrygia, bringing strength to all the disciples.
24 ثم اقبل الى افسس يهودي اسمه أبلوس اسكندري الجنس رجل فصيح مقتدر في الكتب‎.	24 A Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, an eloquent speaker, arrived in Ephesus. He was an authority on the scriptures.
25 ‎كان هذا خبيرا في طريق الرب وكان وهو حار بالروح يتكلم ويعلّم بتدقيق ما يختص بالرب عارفا معمودية يوحنا فقط‎.	25 He had been instructed in the Way of the Lord and, with ardent spirit, spoke and taught accurately about Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John.
26 ‎وابتدأ هذا يجاهر في المجمع. فلما سمعه اكيلا وبريسكلا اخذاه اليهما وشرحا له طريق الرب باكثر تدقيق‎.	26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue; but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the Way (of God) more accurately.
27 ‎واذ كان يريد ان يجتاز الى اخائية كتب الاخوة الى التلاميذ يحضونهم ان يقبلوه. فلما جاء ساعد كثيرا بالنعمة الذين كانوا قد آمنوا‎.	27 And when he wanted to cross to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples there to welcome him. After his arrival he gave great assistance to those who had come to believe through grace.
28 ‎لانه كان باشتداد يفحم اليهود جهرا مبينا بالكتب ان يسوع هو المسيح	28 He vigorously refuted the Jews in public, establishing from the scriptures that the Messiah is Jesus.
