Matthew 9

فَدَخَلَ السَّفِينَةَ وَاجْتَازَ وَجَاءَ إِلَى مَدِينَتِهِ.

And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.

وَإِذَا مَفْلُوجٌ يُقَدِّمُونَهُ إِلَيْهِ مَطْرُوحًا عَلَى فِرَاشٍ. فَلَمَّا رَأَى يَسُوعُ إِيمَانَهُمْ قَالَ لِلْمَفْلُوجِ: «ثِقْ يَا بُنَيَّ. مَغْفُورَةٌ لَكَ خَطَايَاكَ».

And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

وَإِذَا قَوْمٌ مِنَ الْكَتَبَةِ قَدْ قَالُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ: «هذَا يُجَدِّفُ!»

And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

فَعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ أَفْكَارَهُمْ، فَقَالَ:«لِمَاذَا تُفَكِّرُونَ بِالشَّرِّ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ؟

And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

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

For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

وَلكِنْ لِكَيْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ لابْنِ الإِنْسَانِ سُلْطَانًا عَلَى الأَرْضِ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ الْخَطَايَا». حِينَئِذٍ قَالَ لِلْمَفْلُوجِ:«قُمِ احْمِلْ فِرَاشَكَ وَاذْهَبْ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ!»

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

فَقَامَ وَمَضَى إِلَى بَيْتِهِ.

And he arose, and departed to his house.

فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْجُمُوعُ تَعَجَّبُوا وَمَجَّدُوا اللهَ الَّذِي أَعْطَى النَّاسَ سُلْطَانًا مِثْلَ هذَا.

But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.

وَفِيمَا يَسُوعُ مُجْتَازٌ مِنْ هُنَاكَ، رَأَى إِنْسَانًا جَالِسًا عِنْدَ مَكَانِ الْجِبَايَةِ، اسْمُهُ مَتَّى. فَقَالَ لَهُ:«اتْبَعْنِي». فَقَامَ وَتَبِعَهُ.

And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

وَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ فِي الْبَيْتِ، إِذَا عَشَّارُونَ وَخُطَاةٌ كَثِيرُونَ قَدْ جَاءُوا وَاتَّكَأُوا مَعَ يَسُوعَ وَتَلاَمِيذِهِ.

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.

فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ قَالُوا لِتَلاَمِيذِهِ:«لِمَاذَا يَأْكُلُ مُعَلِّمُكُمْ مَعَ الْعَشَّارِينَ وَالْخُطَاةِ؟»

And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ يَسُوعُ قَالَ لَهُمْ:«لاَ يَحْتَاجُ الأَصِحَّاءُ إِلَى طَبِيبE بَلِ الْمَرْضَى.

But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.

فَاذْهَبُوا وَتَعَلَّمُوا مَا هُوَ: إِنِّي أُرِيدُ رَحْمَةً لاَ ذَبِيحَةً، لأَنِّي لَمْ آتِ لأَدْعُوَ أَبْرَارًا بَلْ خُطَاةً إِلَى التَّوْبَةِ».

But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

حِينَئِذٍ أَتَى إِلَيْهِ تَلاَمِيذُ يُوحَنَّا قَائِلِينَ:«لِمَاذَا نَصُومُ نَحْنُ وَالْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ كَثِيرًا، وَأَمَّا تَلاَمِيذُكَ فَلاَ يَصُومُونَ؟»

Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ:«هَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ بَنُو الْعُرْسِ أَنْ يَنُوحُوا مَا دَامَ الْعَرِيسُ مَعَهُمْ؟ وَلكِنْ سَتَأْتِي أَيَّامٌ حِينَ يُرْفَعُ الْعَرِيسُ عَنْهُمْ، فَحِينَئِذٍ يَصُومُونَ.

And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَجْعَلُ رُقْعَةً مِنْ قِطْعَةٍ جَدِيدَةٍ عَلَى ثَوْبE عَتِيق، لأَنَّ الْمِلْءَ يَأْخُذُ مِنَ الثَّوْبِ، فَيَصِيرُ الْخَرْقُ أَرْدَأَ.

No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.

وَلاَ يَجْعَلُونَ خَمْرًا جَدِيدَةً فِي زِقَاق عَتِيقَةٍ، لِئَلاَّ تَنْشَقَّ الزِّقَاقُ، فَالْخَمْرُ تَنْصَبُّ وَالزِّقَاقُ تَتْلَفُ. بَلْ يَجْعَلُونَ خَمْرًا جَدِيدَةً فِي زِقَاق جَدِيدَةٍ فَتُحْفَظُ جَمِيعًا».

Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

وَفِيمَا هُوَ يُكَلِّمُهُمْ بِهذَا، إِذَا رَئِيسٌ قَدْ جَاءَ فَسَجَدَ لَهُ قَائِلاً:«إِنَّ ابْنَتِي الآنَ مَاتَتْ، لكِنْ تَعَالَ وَضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَيْهَا فَتَحْيَا».

While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

فَقَامَ يَسُوعُ وَتَبِعَهُ هُوَ وَتَلاَمِيذُهُ.

And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

وَإِذَا امْرَأَةٌ نَازِفَةُ دَمٍ مُنْذُ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً قَدْ جَاءَتْ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ وَمَسَّتْ هُدْبَ ثَوْبِهِ،

And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:

لأَنَّهَا قَالَتْ فِي نَفْسِهَا:«إِنْ مَسَسْتُ ثَوْبَهُ فَقَطْ شُفِيتُ».

For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.

فَالْتَفَتَ يَسُوعُ وَأَبْصَرَهَا، فَقَالَ:«ثِقِي يَا ابْنَةُ، إِيمَانُكِ قَدْ شَفَاكِ». فَشُفِيَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ.

But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

وَلَمَّا جَاءَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى بَيْتِ الرَّئِيسِ، وَنَظَرَ الْمُزَمِّرِينَ وَالْجَمْعَ يَضِجُّونَ،

And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

قَالَ لَهُمْ:«تَنَحَّوْا، فَإِنَّ الصَّبِيَّةَ لَمْ تَمُتْ لكِنَّهَا نَائِمَةٌ». فَضَحِكُوا عَلَيْهِ.

He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

فَلَمَّا أُخْرِجَ الْجَمْعُ دَخَلَ وَأَمْسَكَ بِيَدِهَا، فَقَامَتِ الصَّبِيَّةُ.

But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.

فَخَرَجَ ذلِكَ الْخَبَرُ إِلَى تِلْكَ الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا.

And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

وَفِيمَا يَسُوعُ مُجْتَازٌ مِنْ هُنَاكَ، تَبِعَهُ أَعْمَيَانِ يَصْرَخَانِ وَيَقُولاَنِ:«ارْحَمْنَا يَا ابْنَ دَاوُدَ!».

And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us.

وَلَمَّا جَاءَ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ تَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ الأَعْمَيَانِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمَا يَسُوعُ:«أَتُؤْمِنَانِ أَنِّي أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ هذَا؟» قَالاَ لَهُ:«نَعَمْ، يَا سَيِّدُ!».

And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.

حِينَئِذٍ لَمَسَ أَعْيُنَهُمَا قَائِلاً:«بِحَسَب إِيمَانِكُمَا لِيَكُنْ لَكُمَا».

Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

فَانْفَتَحَتْ أَعْيُنُهُمَا. فَانْتَهَرَهُمَا يَسُوعُ قَائِلاً: «انْظُرَا، لاَ يَعْلَمْ أَحَدٌ!»

And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.

وَلكِنَّهُمَا خَرَجَا وَأَشَاعَاهُ فِي تِلْكَ الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا.

But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.

وَفِيمَا هُمَا خَارِجَانِ، إِذَا إِنْسَانٌ أَخْرَسُ مَجْنُونٌ قَدَّمُوهُ إِلَيْهِ.

As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.

فَلَمَّا أُخْرِجَ الشَّيْطَانُ تَكَلَّمَ الأَخْرَسُ، فَتَعَجَّبَ الْجُمُوعُ قَائِلِينَ:«لَمْ يَظْهَرْ قَطُّ مِثْلُ هذَا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ!»

And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.

أَمَّا الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ فَقَالُوا:«بِرَئِيسِ الشَّيَاطِينِ يُخْرِجُ الشَّيَاطِينَ!».

But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils.

وَكَانَ يَسُوعُ يَطُوفُ الْمُدُنَ كُلَّهَا وَالْقُرَى يُعَلِّمُ فِي مَجَامِعِهَا، وَيَكْرِزُ بِبِشَارَةِ الْمَلَكُوتِ، وَيَشْفِي كُلَّ مَرَضٍ وَكُلَّ ضُعْفٍ فِي الشَّعْبِ.

And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

وَلَمَّا رَأَى الْجُمُوعَ تَحَنَّنَ عَلَيْهِمْ، إِذْ كَانُوا مُنْزَعِجِينَ وَمُنْطَرِحِينَ كَغَنَمٍ لاَ رَاعِيَ لَهَا.

But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

حِينَئِذٍ قَالَ لِتَلاَمِيذِهِ:«الْحَصَادُ كَثِيرٌ وَلكِنَّ الْفَعَلَةَ قَلِيلُونَ.

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

فَاطْلُبُوا مِنْ رَبِّ الْحَصَادِ أَنْ يُرْسِلَ فَعَلَةً إِلَى حَصَادِهِ».

Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
