John 12

ثُمَّ قَبْلَ الْفِصْحِ بِسِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ أَتَى يَسُوعُ إِلَى بَيْتِ عَنْيَا، حَيْثُ كَانَ لِعَازَرُ الْمَيْتُ الَّذِي أَقَامَهُ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ.

Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.

فَصَنَعُوا لَهُ هُنَاكَ عَشَاءً. وَكَانَتْ مَرْثَا تَخْدِمُ، وَأَمَّا لِعَازَرُ فَكَانَ أَحَدَ الْمُتَّكِئِينَ مَعَهُ.

There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.

فَأَخَذَتْ مَرْيَمُ مَنًا مِنْ طِيبِ نَارِدِينٍ خَالِصٍ كَثِيرِ الثَّمَنِ، وَدَهَنَتْ قَدَمَيْ يَسُوعَ، وَمَسَحَتْ قَدَمَيْهِ بِشَعْرِهَا، فَامْتَلأَ الْبَيْتُ مِنْ رَائِحَةِ الطِّيبِ.

Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.

فَقَالَ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ تَلاَمِيذِهِ، وَهُوَ يَهُوذَا سِمْعَانُ الإِسْخَرْيُوطِيُّ، الْمُزْمِعُ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَهُ:

Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,

«لِمَاذَا لَمْ يُبَعْ هذَا الطِّيبُ بِثَلاَثَمِئَةِ دِينَارٍ وَيُعْطَ لِلْفُقَرَاءِ؟»

Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?

قَالَ هذَا لَيْسَ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ يُبَالِي بِالْفُقَرَاءِ، بَلْ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ سَارِقًا، وَكَانَ الصُّنْدُوقُ عِنْدَهُ، وَكَانَ يَحْمِلُ مَا يُلْقَى فِيهِ.

This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ:«اتْرُكُوهَا! إِنَّهَا لِيَوْمِ تَكْفِينِي قَدْ حَفِظَتْهُ،

Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.

لأَنَّ الْفُقَرَاءَ مَعَكُمْ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ، وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَلَسْتُ مَعَكُمْ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ».

For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.

فَعَلِمَ جَمْعٌ كَثِيرٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ أَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ، فَجَاءُوا لَيْسَ لأَجْلِ يَسُوعَ فَقَطْ، بَلْ لِيَنْظُرُوا أَيْضًا لِعَازَرَ الَّذِي أَقَامَهُ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ.

Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

فَتَشَاوَرَ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ لِيَقْتُلُوا لِعَازَرَ أَيْضًا،

But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;

لأَنَّ كَثِيرِينَ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ كَانُوا بِسَبَبِهِ يَذْهَبُونَ وَيُؤْمِنُونَ بِيَسُوعَ.

Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.

وَفِي الْغَدِ سَمِعَ الْجَمْعُ الْكَثِيرُ الَّذِي جَاءَ إِلَى الْعِيدِ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ آتٍ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ،

On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

فَأَخَذُوا سُعُوفَ النَّخْلِ وَخَرَجُوا لِلِقَائِهِ، وَكَانُوا يَصْرُخُونَ: «أُوصَنَّا! مُبَارَكٌ الآتِي بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ! مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ!»

Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

وَوَجَدَ يَسُوعُ جَحْشًا فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهِ كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ:

And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,

«لاَ تَخَافِي يَا ابْنَةَ صَِهْيَوْنَ. هُوَذَا مَلِكُكِ يَأْتِي جَالِسًا عَلَى جَحْشٍ أَتَانٍ».

Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

وَهذِهِ الأُمُورُ لَمْ يَفْهَمْهَا تَلاَمِيذُهُ أَوَّلاً، وَلكِنْ لَمَّا تَمَجَّدَ يَسُوعُ، حِينَئِذٍ تَذَكَّرُوا أَنَّ هذِهِ كَانَتْ مَكْتُوبَةً عَنْهُ، وَأَنَّهُمْ صَنَعُوا هذِهِ لَهُ.

These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.

وَكَانَ الْجَمْعُ الَّذِي مَعَهُ يَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ دَعَا لِعَازَرَ مِنَ الْقَبْرِ وَأَقَامَهُ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ.

The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.

لِهذَا أَيْضًا لاَقَاهُ الْجَمْعُ، لأَنَّهُمْ سَمِعُوا أَنَّهُ كَانَ قَدْ صَنَعَ هذِهِ الآيَةَ.

For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.

فَقَالَ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «انْظُرُوا! إِنَّكُمْ لاَ تَنْفَعُونَ شَيْئًا! هُوَذَا الْعَالَمُ قَدْ ذَهَبَ وَرَاءَهُ!».

The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.

وَكَانَ أُنَاسٌ يُونَانِيُّونَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا لِيَسْجُدُوا فِي الْعِيدِ.

And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:

فَتَقَدَّمَ هؤُلاَءِ إِلَى فِيلُبُّسَ الَّذِي مِنْ بَيْتِ صَيْدَا الْجَلِيلِ، وَسَأَلُوهُ قَائِلِينَ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، نُرِيدُ أَنْ نَرَى يَسُوعَ»

The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.

فَأَتَى فِيلُبُّسُ وَقَالَ لأَنْدَرَاوُسَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ أَنْدَرَاوُسُ وَفِيلُبُّسُ لِيَسُوعَ.

Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

وَأَمَّا يَسُوعُ فَأَجَابَهُمَا قِائِلاً:«قَدْ أَتَتِ السَّاعَةُ لِيَتَمَجَّدَ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ.

And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.

اَلْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنْ لَمْ تَقَعْ حَبَّةُ الْحِنْطَةِ فِي الأَرْضِ وَتَمُتْ فَهِيَ تَبْقَى وَحْدَهَا. وَلكِنْ إِنْ مَاتَتْ تَأْتِي بِثَمَرٍ كَثِيرٍ.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

مَنْ يُحِبُّ نَفْسَهُ يُهْلِكُهَا، وَمَنْ يُبْغِضُ نَفْسَهُ فِي هذَا الْعَالَمِ يَحْفَظُهَا إِلَى حَيَاةٍ أَبَدِيَّةٍ.

He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَخْدِمُنِي فَلْيَتْبَعْنِي، وَحَيْثُ أَكُونُ أَنَا هُنَاكَ أَيْضًا يَكُونُ خَادِمِي. وَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَخْدِمُنِي يُكْرِمُهُ الآبُ.

If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

اَلآنَ نَفْسِي قَدِ اضْطَرَبَتْ. وَمَاذَا أَقُولُ؟ أَيُّهَا الآبُ نَجِّنِي مِنْ هذِهِ السَّاعَةِ؟. وَلكِنْ لأَجْلِ هذَا أَتَيْتُ إِلَى هذِهِ السَّاعَةِ

Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

أَيُّهَا الآبُ مَجِّدِ اسْمَكَ!». فَجَاءَ صَوْتٌ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ:«مَجَّدْتُ، وَأُمَجِّدُ أَيْضًا!».

Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.

فَالْجَمْعُ الَّذِي كَانَ وَاقِفًا وَسَمِعَ، قَالَ:«قَدْ حَدَثَ رَعْدٌ!». وَآخَرُونَ قَالُوا: «قَدْ كَلَّمَهُ مَلاَكٌ!».

The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.

أَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وقَالَ:«لَيْسَ مِنْ أَجْلِي صَارَ هذَا الصَّوْتُ، بَلْ مِنْ أَجْلِكُمْ.

Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.

اَلآنَ دَيْنُونَةُ هذَا الْعَالَمِ. اَلآنَ يُطْرَحُ رَئِيسُ هذَا الْعَالَمِ خَارِجًا.

Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

وَأَنَا إِنِ ارْتَفَعْتُ عَنِ الأَرْضِ أَجْذِبُ إِلَيَّ الْجَمِيعَ».

And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.

قَالَ هذَا مُشِيرًا إِلَى أَيَّةِ مِيتَةٍ كَانَ مُزْمِعًا أَنْ يَمُوتَ.

This he said, signifying what death he should die.

فَأَجَابَهُ الْجَمْعُ: «نَحْنُ سَمِعْنَا مِنَ النَّامُوسِ أَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ يَبْقَى إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فَكَيْفَ تَقُولُ أَنْتَ إِنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَرْتَفِعَ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ؟ مَنْ هُوَ هذَا ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ؟»

The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ:«النُّورُ مَعَكُمْ زَمَانًا قَلِيلاً بَعْدُ، فَسِيرُوا مَا دَامَ لَكُمُ النُّورُ لِئَلاَّ يُدْرِكَكُمُ الظَّلاَمُ. وَالَّذِي يَسِيرُ فِي الظَّلاَمِ لاَ يَعْلَمُ إِلَى أَيْنَ يَذْهَبُ.

Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.

مَا دَامَ لَكُمُ النُّورُ آمِنُوا بِالنُّورِ لِتَصِيرُوا أَبْنَاءَ النُّورِ». تَكَلَّمَ يَسُوعُ بِهذَا ثُمَّ مَضَى وَاخْتَفَى عَنْهُمْ.

While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

وَمَعَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ قَدْ صَنَعَ أَمَامَهُمْ آيَاتٍ هذَا عَدَدُهَا، لَمْ يُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ،

But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:

لِيَتِمَّ قَوْلُ إِشَعْيَاءَ النَّبِيِّ الَذي قَالَهُ:«يَارَبُّ، مَنْ صَدَّقَ خَبَرَنَا؟ وَلِمَنِ اسْتُعْلِنَتْ ذِرَاعُ الرَّبِّ؟»

That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

لِهذَا لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يُؤْمِنُوا. لأَنَّ إِشَعْيَاءَ قَالَ أَيْضًا:

Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,

«قَدْ أَعْمَى عُيُونَهُمْ، وَأَغْلَظَ قُلُوبَهُمْ، لِئَلاَّ يُبْصِرُوا بِعُيُونِهِمْ، وَيَشْعُرُوا بِقُلُوبِهِمْ، وَيَرْجِعُوا فَأَشْفِيَهُمْ».

He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

قَالَ إِشَعْيَاءُ هذَا حِينَ رَأَى مَجْدَهُ وَتَكَلَّمَ عَنْهُ.

These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

وَلكِنْ مَعَ ذلِكَ آمَنَ بِهِ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الرُّؤَسَاءِ أَيْضًا، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ لِسَبَبِ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ لَمْ يَعْتَرِفُوا بِهِ، لِئَلاَّ يَصِيرُوا خَارِجَ الْمَجْمَعِ،

Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

لأَنَّهُمْ أَحَبُّوا مَجْدَ النَّاسِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مَجْدِ اللهِ.

For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

فَنَادَى يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ:«الَّذِي يُؤْمِنُ بِي، لَيْسَ يُؤْمِنُ بِي بَلْ بِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي.

Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.

وَالَّذِي يَرَانِي يَرَى الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي.

And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.

أَنَا قَدْ جِئْتُ نُورًا إِلَى الْعَالَمِ، حَتَّى كُلُّ مَنْ يُؤْمِنُ بِي لاَ يَمْكُثُ فِي الظُّلْمَةِ.

I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

وَإِنْ سَمِعَ أَحَدٌ كَلاَمِي وَلَمْ يُؤْمِنْ فَأَنَا لاَ أَدِينُهُ، لأَنِّي لَمْ آتِ لأَدِينَ الْعَالَمَ بَلْ لأُخَلِّصَ الْعَالَمَ.

And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

مَنْ رَذَلَنِي وَلَمْ يَقْبَلْ كَلاَمِي فَلَهُ مَنْ يَدِينُهُ. اَلْكَلاَمُ الَّذِي تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهِ هُوَ يَدِينُهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ،

He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

لأَنِّي لَمْ أَتَكَلَّمْ مِنْ نَفْسِي، لكِنَّ الآبَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي هُوَ أَعْطَانِي وَصِيَّةً: مَاذَا أَقُولُ وَبِمَاذَا أَتَكَلَّمُ.

For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ وَصِيَّتَهُ هِيَ حَيَاةٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ. فَمَا أَتَكَلَّمُ أَنَا بِهِ، فَكَمَا قَالَ لِي الآبُ هكَذَا أَتَكَلَّمُ».

And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
