Philippians 2

فَإِنْ كَانَ وَعْظٌ مَا فِي الْمَسِيحِ. إِنْ كَانَتْ تَسْلِيَةٌ مَا لِلْمَحَبَّةِ. إِنْ كَانَتْ شَرِكَةٌ مَا فِي الرُّوحِ. إِنْ كَانَتْ أَحْشَاءٌ وَرَأْفَةٌ،

If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,

فَتَمِّمُوا فَرَحِي حَتَّى تَفْتَكِرُوا فِكْرًا وَاحِدًا وَلَكُمْ مَحَبَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ بِنَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ، مُفْتَكِرِينَ شَيْئًا وَاحِدًا،

Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

لاَ شَيْئًا بِتَحَزُّبٍ أَوْ بِعُجْبٍ، بَلْ بِتَوَاضُعٍ، حَاسِبِينَ بَعْضُكُمُ الْبَعْضَ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ.

Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

لاَ تَنْظُرُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مَا هُوَ لِنَفْسِهِ، بَلْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مَا هُوَ لآخَرِينَ أَيْضًا.

Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

فَلْيَكُنْ فِيكُمْ هذَا الْفِكْرُ الَّذِي فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ أَيْضًا:

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

الَّذِي إِذْ كَانَ فِي صُورَةِ اللهِ، لَمْ يَحْسِبْ خُلْسَةً أَنْ يَكُونَ مُعَادِلاً ِللهِ.

Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

لكِنَّهُ أَخْلَى نَفْسَهُ، آخِذًا صُورَةَ عَبْدٍ، صَائِرًا فِي شِبْهِ النَّاسِ.

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

وَإِذْ وُجِدَ فِي الْهَيْئَةِ كَإِنْسَانٍ، وَضَعَ نَفْسَهُ وَأَطَاعَ حَتَّى الْمَوْتَ مَوْتَ الصَّلِيبِ.

And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

لِذلِكَ رَفَّعَهُ اللهُ أَيْضًا، وَأَعْطَاهُ اسْمًا فَوْقَ كُلِّ اسْمٍ

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

لِكَيْ تَجْثُوَ بِاسْمِ يَسُوعَ كُلُّ رُكْبَةٍ مِمَّنْ فِي السَّمَاءِ وَمَنْ عَلَى الأَرْضِ وَمَنْ تَحْتَ الأَرْضِ،

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

وَيَعْتَرِفَ كُلُّ لِسَانٍ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحَ هُوَ رَبٌّ لِمَجْدِ اللهِ الآبِ.

And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

إِذًا يَا أَحِبَّائِي، كَمَا أَطَعْتُمْ كُلَّ حِينٍ، لَيْسَ كَمَا فِي حُضُورِي فَقَطْ، بَلِ الآنَ بِالأَوْلَى جِدًّا فِي غِيَابِي، تَمِّمُوا خَلاَصَكُمْ بِخَوْفٍ وَرِعْدَةٍ،

Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

لأَنَّ اللهَ هُوَ الْعَامِلُ فِيكُمْ أَنْ تُرِيدُوا وَأَنْ تَعْمَلُوا مِنْ أَجْلِ الْمَسَرَّةِ.

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

اِفْعَلُوا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ بِلاَ دَمْدَمَةٍ وَلاَ مُجَادَلَةٍ،

Do all things without murmurings and disputings:

لِكَيْ تَكُونُوا بِلاَ لَوْمٍ، وَبُسَطَاءَ، أَوْلاَدًا ِللهِ بِلاَ عَيْبٍ فِي وَسَطِ جِيل مُعَوَّجٍ وَمُلْتَوٍ، تُضِيئُونَ بَيْنَهُمْ كَأَنْوَارٍ فِي الْعَالَمِ.

That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

مُتَمَسِّكِينَ بِكَلِمَةِ الْحَيَاةِ لافْتِخَارِي فِي يَوْمِ الْمَسِيحِ، بِأَنِّي لَمْ أَسْعَ بَاطِلاً وَلاَ تَعِبْتُ بَاطِلاً.

Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.

لكِنَّنِي وَإِنْ كُنْتُ أَنْسَكِبُ أَيْضًا عَلَى ذَبِيحَةِ إِيمَانِكُمْ وَخِدْمَتِهِ، أُسَرُّ وَأَفْرَحُ مَعَكُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ.

Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.

وَبِهذَا عَيْنِهِ كُونُوا أَنْتُمْ مَسْرُورِينَ أَيْضًا وَافْرَحُوا مَعِي.

For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.

عَلَى أَنِّي أَرْجُو فِي الرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ أَنْ أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْكُمْ سَرِيعًا تِيمُوثَاوُسَ لِكَيْ تَطِيبَ نَفْسِي إِذَا عَرَفْتُ أَحْوَالَكُمْ.

But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.

لأَنْ لَيْسَ لِي أَحَدٌ آخَرُ نَظِيرُ نَفْسِي يَهْتَمُّ بِأَحْوَالِكُمْ بِإِخْلاَصٍ،

For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.

إِذِ الْجَمِيعُ يَطْلُبُونَ مَا هُوَ لأَنْفُسِهِمْ لاَ مَا هُوَ لِيَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ.

For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.

وَأَمَّا اخْتِبَارُهُ فَأَنْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ أَنَّهُ كَوَلَدٍ مَعَ أَبٍ خَدَمَ مَعِي لأَجْلِ الإِنْجِيلِ.

But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.

هذَا أَرْجُو أَنْ أُرْسِلَهُ أَوَّلَ مَا أَرَى أَحْوَالِي حَالاً.

Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.

وَأَثِقُ بِالرَّبِّ أَنِّي أَنَا أَيْضًا سَآتِي إِلَيْكُمْ سَرِيعًا.

But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.

وَلكِنِّي حَسِبْتُ مِنَ الّلاَزِمِ أَنْ أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْكُمْ أَبَفْرُودِتُسَ أَخِي، وَالْعَامِلَ مَعِي، وَالْمُتَجَنِّدَ مَعِي، وَرَسُولَكُمْ، وَالْخَادِمَ لِحَاجَتِي.

Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellowsoldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.

إِذْ كَانَ مُشْتَاقًا إِلَى جَمِيعِكُمْ وَمَغْمُومًا، لأَنَّكُمْ سَمِعْتُمْ أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَرِيضًا.

For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that ye had heard that he had been sick.

فَإِنَّهُ مَرِضَ قَرِيبًا مِنَ الْمَوْتِ، لكِنَّ اللهَ رَحِمَهُ. وَلَيْسَ إِيَّاهُ وَحْدَهُ بَلْ إِيَّايَ أَيْضًا لِئَلاَّ يَكُونَ لِي حُزْنٌ عَلَى حُزْنٍ.

For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

فَأَرْسَلْتُهُ إِلَيْكُمْ بِأَوْفَرِ سُرْعَةٍ، حَتَّى إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ تَفْرَحُونَ أَيْضًا وَأَكُونُ أَنَا أَقَلَّ حُزْنًا.

I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.

فَاقْبَلُوهُ فِي الرَّبِّ بِكُلِّ فَرَحٍ، وَلْيَكُنْ مِثْلُهُ مُكَرَّمًا عِنْدَكُمْ.

Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:

لأَنَّهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَمَلِ الْمَسِيحِ قَارَبَ الْمَوْتَ، مُخَاطِرًا بِنَفْسِهِ، لِكَيْ يَجْبُرَ نُقْصَانَ خِدْمَتِكُمْ لِي.

Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
