II Peter 2

وَلكِنْ، كَانَ أَيْضًا فِي الشَّعْبِ أَنْبِيَاءُ كَذَبَةٌ، كَمَا سَيَكُونُ فِيكُمْ أَيْضًا مُعَلِّمُونَ كَذَبَةٌ، الَّذِينَ يَدُسُّونَ بِدَعَ هَلاَكٍ. وَإِذْ هُمْ يُنْكِرُونَ الرَّبَّ الَّذِي اشْتَرَاهُمْ، يَجْلِبُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ هَلاَكًا سَرِيعًا.

But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

وَسَيَتْبَعُ كَثِيرُونَ تَهْلُكَاتِهِمْ. الَّذِينَ بِسَبَبِهِمْ يُجَدَّفُ عَلَى طَرِيقِ الْحَقِّ.

And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

وَهُمْ فِي الطَّمَعِ يَتَّجِرُونَ بِكُمْ بِأَقْوَال مُصَنَّعَةٍ، الَّذِينَ دَيْنُونَتُهُمْ مُنْذُ الْقَدِيمِ لاَ تَتَوَانَى، وَهَلاَكُهُمْ لاَ يَنْعَسُ.

And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

لأَنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ اللهُ لَمْ يُشْفِقْ عَلَى مَلاَئِكَةٍ قَدْ أَخْطَأُوا، بَلْ فِي سَلاَسِلِ الظَّلاَمِ طَرَحَهُمْ فِي جَهَنَّمَ، وَسَلَّمَهُمْ مَحْرُوسِينَ لِلْقَضَاءِ،

For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;

وَلَمْ يُشْفِقْ عَلَى الْعَالَمِ الْقَدِيمِ، بَلْ إِنَّمَا حَفِظَ نُوحًا ثَامِنًا كَارِزًا لِلْبِرِّ، إِذْ جَلَبَ طُوفَانًا عَلَى عَالَمِ الْفُجَّارِ.

And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

وَإِذْ رَمَّدَ مَدِينَتَيْ سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ، حَكَمَ عَلَيْهِمَا بِالانْقِلاَبِ، وَاضِعًا عِبْرَةً لِلْعَتِيدِينَ أَنْ يَفْجُرُوا،

And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;

وَأَنْقَذَ لُوطًا الْبَارَّ، مَغْلُوبًا مِنْ سِيرَةِ الأَرْدِيَاءِ فِي الدَّعَارَةِ.

And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:

إِذْ كَانَ الْبَارُّ، بِالنَّظَرِ وَالسَّمْعِ وَهُوَ سَاكِنٌ بَيْنَهُمْ، يُعَذِّبُ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا نَفْسَهُ الْبَارَّةَ بِالأَفْعَالِ الأَثِيمَةِ.

(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)

يَعْلَمُ الرَّبُّ أَنْ يُنْقِذَ الأَتْقِيَاءَ مِنَ التَّجْرِبَةِ، وَيَحْفَظَ الأَثَمَةَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الدِّينِ مُعَاقَبِينَ،

The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:

وَلاَ سِيَّمَا الَّذِينَ يَذْهَبُونَ وَرَاءَ الْجَسَدِ فِي شَهْوَةِ النَّجَاسَةِ، وَيَسْتَهِينُونَ بِالسِّيَادَةِ. جَسُورُونَ، مُعْجِبُونَ بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ، لاَ يَرْتَعِبُونَ أَنْ يَفْتَرُوا عَلَى ذَوِي الأَمْجَادِ،

But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.

حَيْثُ مَلاَئِكَةٌ­ وَهُمْ أَعْظَمُ قُوَّةً وَقُدْرَةً ­ لاَ يُقَدِّمُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَدَى الرَّبِّ حُكْمَ افْتِرَاءٍ.

Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.

أَمَّا هؤُلاَءِ فَكَحَيَوَانَاتٍ غَيْرِ نَاطِقَةٍ، طَبِيعِيَّةٍ، مَوْلُودَةٍ لِلصَّيْدِ وَالْهَلاَكِ، يَفْتَرُونَ عَلَى مَا يَجْهَلُونَ، فَسَيَهْلِكُونَ فِي فَسَادِهِمْ

But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;

آخِذِينَ أُجْرَةَ الإِثْمِ. الَّذِينَ يَحْسِبُونَ تَنَعُّمَ يَوْمٍ لَذَّةً. أَدْنَاسٌ وَعُيُوبٌ، يَتَنَعَّمُونَ فِي غُرُورِهِمْ صَانِعِينَ وَلاَئِمَ مَعَكُمْ.

And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;

لَهُمْ عُيُونٌ مَمْلُوَّةٌ فِسْقًا، لاَ تَكُفُّ عَنِ الْخَطِيَّةِ، خَادِعُونَ النُّفُوسَ غَيْرَ الثَّابِتَةِ. لَهُمْ قَلْبٌ مُتَدَرِّبٌ فِي الطَّمَعِ. أَوْلاَدُ اللَّعْنَةِ.

Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:

قَدْ تَرَكُوا الطَّرِيقَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ، فَضَلُّوا، تَابِعِينَ طَرِيقَ بَلْعَامَ بْنِ بَصُورَ الَّذِي أَحَبَّ أُجْرَةَ الإِثْمِ.

Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;

وَلكِنَّهُ حَصَلَ عَلَى تَوْبِيخِ تَعَدِّيهِ، إِذْ مَنَعَ حَمَاقَةَ النَّبِيِّ حِمَارٌ أَعْجَمُ نَاطِقًا بِصَوْتِ إِنْسَانٍ.

But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.

هؤُلاَءِ هُمْ آبَارٌ بِلاَ مَاءٍ، غُيُومٌ يَسُوقُهَا النَّوْءُ. الَّذِينَ قَدْ حُفِظَ لَهُمْ قَتَامُ الظَّلاَمِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ.

These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.

لأَنَّهُمْ إِذْ يَنْطِقُونَ بِعَظَائِمِ الْبُطْلِ، يَخْدَعُونَ بِشَهَوَاتِ الْجَسَدِ فِي الدَّعَارَةِ، مَنْ هَرَبَ قَلِيلاً مِنَ الَّذِينَ يَسِيرُونَ فِي الضَّلاَلِ،

For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.

وَاعِدِينَ إِيَّاهُمْ بِالْحُرِّيَّةِ، وَهُمْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ عَبِيدُ الْفَسَادِ. لأَنَّ مَا انْغَلَبَ مِنْهُ أَحَدٌ، فَهُوَ لَهُ مُسْتَعْبَدٌ أَيْضًا!

While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.

لأَنَّهُ إِذَا كَانُوا، بَعْدَمَا هَرَبُوا مِنْ نَجَاسَاتِ الْعَالَمِ، بِمَعْرِفَةِ الرَّبِّ وَالْمُخَلِّصِ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، يَرْتَبِكُونَ أَيْضًا فِيهَا، فَيَنْغَلِبُونَ، فَقَدْ صَارَتْ لَهُمُ الأَوَاخِرُ أَشَرَّ مِنَ الأَوَائِلِ.

For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

لأَنَّهُ كَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ لَوْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا طَرِيقَ الْبِرِّ، مِنْ أَنَّهُمْ بَعْدَمَا عَرَفُوا، يَرْتَدُّونَ عَنِ الْوَصِيَّةِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ الْمُسَلَّمَةِ لَهُمْ.

For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

قَدْ أَصَابَهُمْ مَا فِي الْمَثَلِ الصَّادِقِ:«كَلْبٌ قَدْ عَادَ إِلَى قَيْئِهِ»، وَ«خِنْزِيرَةٌ مُغْتَسِلَةٌ إِلَى مَرَاغَةِ الْحَمْأَةِ».

But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
