Hebrews 12

لِذلِكَ نَحْنُ أَيْضًا إِذْ لَنَا سَحَابَةٌ مِنَ الشُّهُودِ مِقْدَارُ هذِهِ مُحِيطَةٌ بِنَا، لِنَطْرَحْ كُلَّ ثِقْل، وَالْخَطِيَّةَ الْمُحِيطَةَ بِنَا بِسُهُولَةٍ، وَلْنُحَاضِرْ بِالصَّبْرِ فِي الْجِهَادِ الْمَوْضُوعِ أَمَامَنَا،

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

نَاظِرِينَ إِلَى رَئِيسِ الإِيمَانِ وَمُكَمِّلِهِ يَسُوعَ، الَّذِي مِنْ أَجْلِ السُّرُورِ الْمَوْضُوعِ أَمَامَهُ، احْتَمَلَ الصَّلِيبَ مُسْتَهِينًا بِالْخِزْيِ، فَجَلَسَ فِي يَمِينِ عَرْشِ اللهِ.

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

فَتَفَكَّرُوا فِي الَّذِي احْتَمَلَ مِنَ الْخُطَاةِ مُقَاوَمَةً لِنَفْسِهِ مِثْلَ هذِهِ لِئَلاَّ تَكِلُّوا وَتَخُورُوا فِي نُفُوسِكُمْ.

For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

لَمْ تُقَاوِمُوا بَعْدُ حَتَّى الدَّمِ مُجَاهِدِينَ ضِدَّ الْخَطِيَّةِ،

Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

وَقَدْ نَسِيتُمُ الْوَعْظَ الَّذِي يُخَاطِبُكُمْ كَبَنِينَ:«يَا ابْنِي لاَ تَحْتَقِرْ تَأْدِيبَ الرَّبِّ، وَلاَ تَخُرْ إِذَا وَبَّخَكَ.

And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

لأَنَّ الَّذِي يُحِبُّهُ الرَّبُّ يُؤَدِّبُهُ، وَيَجْلِدُ كُلَّ ابْنٍ يَقْبَلُهُ».

For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَحْتَمِلُونَ التَّأْدِيبَ يُعَامِلُكُمُ اللهُ كَالْبَنِينَ. فَأَيُّ ابْنٍ لاَ يُؤَدِّبُهُ أَبُوهُ؟

If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

وَلكِنْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ بِلاَ تَأْدِيبٍ، قَدْ صَارَ الْجَمِيعُ شُرَكَاءَ فِيهِ، فَأَنْتُمْ نُغُولٌ لاَ بَنُونَ.

But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

ثُمَّ قَدْ كَانَ لَنَا آبَاءُ أَجْسَادِنَا مُؤَدِّبِينَ، وَكُنَّا نَهَابُهُمْ. أَفَلاَ نَخْضَعُ بِالأَوْلَى جِدًّا لأَبِي الأَرْوَاحِ، فَنَحْيَا؟

Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

لأَنَّ أُولئِكَ أَدَّبُونَا أَيَّامًا قَلِيلَةً حَسَبَ اسْتِحْسَانِهِمْ، وَأَمَّا هذَا فَلأَجْلِ الْمَنْفَعَةِ، لِكَيْ نَشْتَرِكَ فِي قَدَاسَتِهِ.

For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

وَلكِنَّ كُلَّ تَأْدِيبٍ فِي الْحَاضِرِ لاَ يُرَى أَنَّهُ لِلْفَرَحِ بَلْ لِلْحَزَنِ. وَأَمَّا أَخِيرًا فَيُعْطِي الَّذِينَ يَتَدَرَّبُونَ بِهِ ثَمَرَ بِرّ لِلسَّلاَمِ.

Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

لِذلِكَ قَوِّمُوا الأَيَادِيَ الْمُسْتَرْخِيَةَ وَالرُّكَبَ الْمُخَلَّعَةَ،

Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;

وَاصْنَعُوا لأَرْجُلِكُمْ مَسَالِكَ مُسْتَقِيمَةً، لِكَيْ لاَ يَعْتَسِفَ الأَعْرَجُ، بَلْ بِالْحَرِيِّ يُشْفَى.

And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

اِتْبَعُوا السَّلاَمَ مَعَ الْجَمِيعِ، وَالْقَدَاسَةَ الَّتِي بِدُونِهَا لَنْ يَرَى أَحَدٌ الرَّبَّ،

Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

مُلاَحِظِينَ لِئَلاَّ يَخِيبَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ نِعْمَةِ اللهِ. لِئَلاَّ يَطْلُعَ أَصْلُ مَرَارَةٍ وَيَصْنَعَ انْزِعَاجًا، فَيَتَنَجَّسَ بِهِ كَثِيرُونَ.

Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

لِئَلاَّ يَكُونَ أَحَدٌ زَانِيًا أَوْ مُسْتَبِيحًا كَعِيسُو، الَّذِي لأَجْلِ أَكْلَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ بَاعَ بَكُورِيَّتَهُ.

Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

فَإِنَّكُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ أَيْضًا بَعْدَ ذلِكَ، لَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرِثَ الْبَرَكَةَ رُفِضَ، إِذْ لَمْ يَجِدْ لِلتَّوْبَةِ مَكَانًا، مَعَ أَنَّهُ طَلَبَهَا بِدُمُوعٍ.

For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

لأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَأْتُوا إِلَى جَبَل مَلْمُوسٍ مُضْطَرِمٍ بِالنَّارِ، وَإِلَى ضَبَابٍ وَظَلاَمٍ وَزَوْبَعَةٍ،

For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

وَهُتَافِ بُوق وَصَوْتِ كَلِمَاتٍ، اسْتَعْفَى الَّذِينَ سَمِعُوهُ مِنْ أَنْ تُزَادَ لَهُمْ كَلِمَةٌ،

And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:

لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَحْتَمِلُوا مَا أُمِرَ بِهِ: «وَإِنْ مَسَّتِ الْجَبَلَ بَهِيمَةٌ، تُرْجَمُ أَوْ تُرْمَى بِسَهْمٍ».

(For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:

وَكَانَ الْمَنْظَرُ هكَذَا مُخِيفًا حَتَّى قَالَ مُوسَى:«أَنَا مُرْتَعِبٌ وَمُرْتَعِدٌ».

And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)

بَلْ قَدْ أَتَيْتُمْ إِلَى جَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ، وَإِلَى مَدِينَةِ اللهِ الْحَيِّ. أُورُشَلِيمَ السَّمَاوِيَّةِ، وَإِلَى رَبَوَاتٍ هُمْ مَحْفِلُ مَلاَئِكَةٍ،

But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,

وَكَنِيسَةُ أَبْكَارٍ مَكْتُوبِينَ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، وَإِلَى اللهِ دَيَّانِ الْجَمِيعِ، وَإِلَى أَرْوَاحِ أَبْرَارٍ مُكَمَّلِينَ،

To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

وَإِلَى وَسِيطِ الْعَهْدِ الْجَدِيدِ، يَسُوعَ، وَإِلَى دَمِ رَشٍّ يَتَكَلَّمُ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ هَابِيلَ.

And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

اُنْظُرُوا أَنْ لاَ تَسْتَعْفُوا مِنَ الْمُتَكَلِّمِ. لأَنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ أُولئِكَ لَمْ يَنْجُوا إِذِ اسْتَعْفَوْا مِنَ الْمُتَكَلِّمِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، فَبِالأَوْلَى جِدًّا لاَ نَنْجُو نَحْنُ الْمُرْتَدِّينَ عَنِ الَّذِي مِنَ السَّمَاءِ!

See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:

الَّذِي صَوْتُهُ زَعْزَعَ الأَرْضَ حِينَئِذٍ، وَأَمَّا الآنَ فَقَدْ وَعَدَ قَائِلاً:«إِنِّي مَرَّةً أَيْضًا أُزَلْزِلُ لاَ الأَرْضَ فَقَطْ بَلِ السَّمَاءَ أَيْضًا».

Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

فَقَوْلُهُ «مَرَّةً أَيْضًا» يَدُلُّ عَلَى تَغْيِيرِ الأَشْيَاءِ الْمُتَزَعْزِعَةِ كَمَصْنُوعَةٍ، لِكَيْ تَبْقَى الَّتِي لاَ تَتَزَعْزَعُ.

And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

لِذلِكَ وَنَحْنُ قَابِلُونَ مَلَكُوتًا لاَ يَتَزَعْزَعُ لِيَكُنْ عِنْدَنَا شُكْرٌ بِهِ نَخْدِمُ اللهَ خِدْمَةً مَرْضِيَّةً، بِخُشُوعٍ وَتَقْوَى.

Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

لأَنَّ «إِلهَنَا نَارٌ آكِلَةٌ».

For our God is a consuming fire.
