Mark 2

ثُمَّ دَخَلَ كَفْرَنَاحُومَ أَيْضًا بَعْدَ أَيَّامٍ، فَسُمِعَ أَنَّهُ فِي بَيْتٍ.

And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house.

وَلِلْوَقْتِ اجْتَمَعَ كَثِيرُونَ حَتَّى لَمْ يَعُدْ يَسَعُ وَلاَ مَا حَوْلَ الْبَابِ. فَكَانَ يُخَاطِبُهُمْ بِالْكَلِمَةِ.

And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.

وَجَاءُوا إِلَيْهِ مُقَدِّمِينَ مَفْلُوجًا يَحْمِلُهُ أَرْبَعَةٌ.

And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.

وَإِذْ لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَقْتَرِبُوا إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ الْجَمْعِ، كَشَفُوا السَّقْفَ حَيْثُ كَانَ. وَبَعْدَ مَا نَقَبُوهُ دَلَّوُا السَّرِيرَ الَّذِي كَانَ الْمَفْلُوجُ مُضْطَجِعًا عَلَيْهِ.

And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

فَلَمَّا رَأَى يَسُوعُ إِيمَانَهُمْ، قَالَ لِلْمَفْلُوجِ: «يَا بُنَيَّ، مَغْفُورَةٌ لَكَ خَطَايَاكَ».

When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

وَكَانَ قَوْمٌ مِنَ الْكَتَبَةِ هُنَاكَ جَالِسِينَ يُفَكِّرُونَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ:

But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

«لِمَاذَا يَتَكَلَّمُ هذَا هكَذَا بِتَجَادِيفَ؟ مَنْ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ خَطَايَا إِلاَّ اللهُ وَحْدَهُ؟»

Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

فَلِلْوَقْتِ شَعَرَ يَسُوعُ بِرُوحِهِ أَنَّهُمْ يُفَكِّرُونَ هكَذَا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ:«لِمَاذَا تُفَكِّرُونَ بِهذَا فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ؟

And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts?

أَيُّمَا أَيْسَرُ، أَنْ يُقَالَ لِلْمَفْلُوجِ: مَغْفُورَةٌ لَكَ خَطَايَاكَ، أَمْ أَنْ يُقَالَ: قُمْ وَاحْمِلْ سَرِيرَكَ وَامْشِ؟

Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

وَلكِنْ لِكَيْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ لابْنِ الإِنْسَانِ سُلْطَانًا عَلَى الأَرْضِ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ الْخَطَايَا». قَالَ لِلْمَفْلُوجِ:

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)

«لَكَ أَقُولُ: قُمْ وَاحْمِلْ سَرِيرَكَ وَاذْهَبْ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ!».

I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.

فَقَامَ لِلْوَقْتِ وَحَمَلَ السَّرِيرَ وَخَرَجَ قُدَّامَ الْكُلِّ، حَتَّى بُهِتَ الْجَمِيعُ وَمَجَّدُوا اللهَ قَائِلِينَ:«مَا رَأَيْنَا مِثْلَ هذَا قَطُّ!».

And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.

ثُمَّ خَرَجَ أَيْضًا إِلَى الْبَحْرِ. وَأَتَى إِلَيْهِ كُلُّ الْجَمْعِ فَعَلَّمَهُمْ.

And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.

وَفِيمَا هُوَ مُجْتَازٌ رَأَى لاَوِيَ بْنَ حَلْفَى جَالِسًا عِنْدَ مَكَانِ الْجِبَايَةِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «اتْبَعْنِي». فَقَامَ وَتَبِعَهُ.

And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphæus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.

وَفِيمَا هُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ فِي بَيْتِهِ كَانَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الْعَشَّارِينَ وَالْخُطَاةِ يَتَّكِئُونَ مَعَ يَسُوعَ وَتَلاَمِيذِهِ، لأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا كَثِيرِينَ وَتَبِعُوهُ.

And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.

وَأَمَّا الْكَتَبَةُ وَالْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ يَأْكُلُ مَعَ الْعَشَّارِينَ وَالْخُطَاةِ، قَالُوا لِتَلاَمِيذِهِ:«مَا بَالُهُ يَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ مَعَ الْعَشَّارِينَ وَالْخُطَاةِ؟»

And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?

فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ يَسُوعُ قَالَ لَهُمْ:«لاَ يَحْتَاجُ الأَصِحَّاءُ إِلَى طَبِيبٍ بَلِ الْمَرْضَى. لَمْ آتِ لأَدْعُوَ أَبْرَارًا بَلْ خُطَاةً إِلَى التَّوْبَةِ».

When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

وَكَانَ تَلاَمِيذُ يُوحَنَّا وَالْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ يَصُومُونَ، فَجَاءُوا وَقَالُوا لَهُ:«لِمَاذَا يَصُومُ تَلاَمِيذُ يُوحَنَّا وَالْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ، وَأَمَّا تَلاَمِيذُكَ فَلاَ يَصُومُونَ؟»

And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ:«هَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ بَنُو الْعُرْسِ أَنْ يَصُومُوا وَالْعَرِيسُ مَعَهُمْ؟ مَا دَامَ الْعَرِيسُ مَعَهُمْ لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ يَصُومُوا.

And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

وَلكِنْ سَتَأْتِي أَيَّامٌ حِينَ يُرْفَعُ الْعَرِيسُ عَنْهُمْ، فَحِينَئِذٍ يَصُومُونَ فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ.

But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَخِيطُ رُقْعَةً مِنْ قِطْعَةٍ جَدِيدَةٍ عَلَى ثَوْبٍ عَتِيق، وَإِلاَّ فَالْمِلْءُ الْجَدِيدُ يَأْخُذُ مِنَ الْعَتِيقِ فَيَصِيرُ الْخَرْقُ أَرْدَأَ.

No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.

وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَجْعَلُ خَمْرًا جَدِيدَةً فِي زِقَاق عَتِيقَةٍ، لِئَلاَّ تَشُقَّ الْخَمْرُ الْجَدِيدَةُ الزِّقَاقَ، فَالْخَمْرُ تَنْصَبُّ وَالزِّقَاقُ تَتْلَفُ. بَلْ يَجْعَلُونَ خَمْرًا جَدِيدَةً فِي زِقَاق جَدِيدَةٍ».

And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.

وَاجْتَازَ فِي السَّبْتِ بَيْنَ الزُّرُوعِ، فَابْتَدَأَ تَلاَمِيذُهُ يَقْطِفُونَ السَّنَابِلَ وَهُمْ سَائِرُونَ.

And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.

فَقَالَ لَهُ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ:«انْظُرْ! لِمَاذَا يَفْعَلُونَ فِي السَّبْتِ مَا لاَ يَحِلُّ؟»

And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ:«أَمَا قَرَأْتُمْ قَطُّ مَا فَعَلَهُ دَاوُدُ حِينَ احْتَاجَ وَجَاعَ هُوَ وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُ؟

And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?

كَيْفَ دَخَلَ بَيْتَ اللهِ فِي أَيَّامِ أَبِيَأَثَارَ رَئِيسِ الْكَهَنَةِ، وَأَكَلَ خُبْزَ التَّقْدِمَةِ الَّذِي لاَ يَحِلُّ أَكْلُهُ إِلاَّ لِلْكَهَنَةِ، وَأَعْطَى الَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَهُ أَيْضًا».

How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?

ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُمُ:«السَّبْتُ إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ لأَجْلِ الإِنْسَانِ، لاَ الإِنْسَانُ لأَجْلِ السَّبْتِ.

And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

إِذًا ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ هُوَ رَبُّ السَّبْتِ أَيْضًا».

Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
