I Corinthians 11

Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

كُونُوا مُتَمَثِّلِينَ بِي كَمَا أَنَا أَيْضًا بِالْمَسِيحِ.

Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.

فَأَمْدَحُكُمْ أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ عَلَى أَنَّكُمْ تَذْكُرُونَنِي فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، وَتَحْفَظُونَ التَّعَالِيمَ كَمَا سَلَّمْتُهَا إِلَيْكُمْ.

But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

وَلكِنْ أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ رَأْسَ كُلِّ رَجُل هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ، وَأَمَّا رَأْسُ الْمَرْأَةِ فَهُوَ الرَّجُلُ، وَرَأْسُ الْمَسِيحِ هُوَ اللهُ.

Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.

كُلُّ رَجُل يُصَلِّي أَوْ يَتَنَبَّأُ وَلَهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ شَيْءٌ، يَشِينُ رَأْسَهُ.

But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.

وَأَمَّا كُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ تُصَلِّي أَوْ تَتَنَبَّأُ وَرَأْسُهَا غَيْرُ مُغُطَّى، فَتَشِينُ رَأْسَهَا، لأَنَّهَا وَالْمَحْلُوقَةَ شَيْءٌ وَاحِدٌ بِعَيْنِهِ.

For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

إِذِ الْمَرْأَةُ، إِنْ كَانَتْ لاَ تَتَغَطَّى، فَلْيُقَصَّ شَعَرُهَا. وَإِنْ كَانَ قَبِيحًا بِالْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تُقَصَّ أَوْ تُحْلَقَ، فَلْتَتَغَطَّ.

For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

فَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لاَ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُغَطِّيَ رَأْسَهُ لِكَوْنِهِ صُورَةَ اللهِ وَمَجْدَهُ. وَأَمَّا الْمَرْأَةُ فَهِيَ مَجْدُ الرَّجُلِ.

For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.

لأَنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيْسَ مِنَ الْمَرْأَةِ، بَلِ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ.

Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

وَلأَنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِنْ أَجْلِ الْمَرْأَةِ، بَلِ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ أَجْلِ الرَّجُلِ.

For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.

لِهذَا يَنْبَغِي لِلْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهَا سُلْطَانٌ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا، مِنْ أَجْلِ الْمَلاَئِكَةِ.

Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.

غَيْرَ أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيْسَ مِنْ دُونِ الْمَرْأَةِ، وَلاَ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ دُونِ الرَّجُلِ فِي الرَّبِّ.

For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.

لأَنَّهُ كَمَا أَنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ هِيَ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ، هكَذَا الرَّجُلُ أَيْضًا هُوَ بِالْمَرْأَةِ. وَلكِنَّ جَمِيعَ الأَشْيَاءِ هِيَ مِنَ اللهِ.

Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?

احْكُمُوا فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ: هَلْ يَلِيقُ بِالْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ إِلَى اللهِ وَهِيَ غَيْرُ مُغَطَّاةٍ؟

Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

أَمْ لَيْسَتِ الطَّبِيعَةُ نَفْسُهَا تُعَلِّمُكُمْ أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِنْ كَانَ يُرْخِي شَعْرَهُ فَهُوَ عَيْبٌ لَهُ؟

But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

وَأَمَّا الْمَرْأَةُ إِنْ كَانَتْ تُرْخِي شَعْرَهَا فَهُوَ مَجْدٌ لَهَا، لأَنَّ الشَّعْرَ قَدْ أُعْطِيَ لَهَا عِوَضَ بُرْقُعٍ.

But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

وَلكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يُظْهِرُ أَنَّهُ يُحِبُّ الْخِصَامَ، فَلَيْسَ لَنَا نَحْنُ عَادَةٌ مِثْلُ هذِهِ، وَلاَ لِكَنَائِسِ اللهِ.

Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

وَلكِنَّنِي إِذْ أُوصِي بِهذَا، لَسْتُ أَمْدَحُ كَوْنَكُمْ تَجْتَمِعُونَ لَيْسَ لِلأَفْضَلِ، بَلْ لِلأَرْدَإِ.

For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

لأَنِّي أَوَّلاً حِينَ تَجْتَمِعُونَ فِي الْكَنِيسَةِ، أَسْمَعُ أَنَّ بَيْنَكُمُ انْشِقَاقَاتٍ، وَأُصَدِّقُ بَعْضَ التَّصْدِيقِ.

For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

لأَنَّهُ لاَ بُدَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ بَيْنَكُمْ بِدَعٌ أَيْضًا، لِيَكُونَ الْمُزَكَّوْنَ ظَاهِرِينَ بَيْنَكُمْ.

When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper.

فَحِينَ تَجْتَمِعُونَ مَعًا لَيْسَ هُوَ لأَكْلِ عَشَاءِ الرَّبِّ.

For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

لأَنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ يَسْبِقُ فَيَأْخُذُ عَشَاءَ نَفْسِهِ فِي الأَكْلِ، فَالْوَاحِدُ يَجُوعُ وَالآخَرُ يَسْكَرُ.

What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.

أَفَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ بُيُوتٌ لِتَأْكُلُوا فِيهَا وَتَشْرَبُوا؟ أَمْ تَسْتَهِينُونَ بِكَنِيسَةِ اللهِ وَتُخْجِلُونَ الَّذِينَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ؟ مَاذَا أَقُولُ لَكُمْ؟ أَأَمْدَحُكُمْ عَلَى هذَا؟ لَسْتُ أَمْدَحُكُمْ!

For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:

لأَنَّنِي تَسَلَّمْتُ مِنَ الرَّبِّ مَا سَلَّمْتُكُمْ أَيْضًا: إِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَسُوعَ فِي اللَّيْلَةِ الَّتِي أُسْلِمَ فِيهَا، أَخَذَ خُبْزًا

And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

وَشَكَرَ فَكَسَّرَ، وَقَالَ:«خُذُوا كُلُوا هذَا هُوَ جَسَدِي الْمَكْسُورُ لأَجْلِكُمُ. اصْنَعُوا هذَا لِذِكْرِي».

After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

كَذلِكَ الْكَأْسَ أَيْضًا بَعْدَمَا تَعَشَّوْا، قَائِلاً: «هذِهِ الْكَأْسُ هِيَ الْعَهْدُ الْجَدِيدُ بِدَمِي. اصْنَعُوا هذَا كُلَّمَا شَرِبْتُمْ لِذِكْرِي».

For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.

فَإِنَّكُمْ كُلَّمَا أَكَلْتُمْ هذَا الْخُبْزَ وَشَرِبْتُمْ هذِهِ الْكَأْسَ، تُخْبِرُونَ بِمَوْتِ الرَّبِّ إِلَى أَنْ يَجِيءَ.

Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

إِذًا أَيُّ مَنْ أَكَلَ هذَا الْخُبْزَ، أَوْ شَرِبَ كَأْسَ الرَّبِّ، بِدُونِ اسْتِحْقَاق، يَكُونُ مُجْرِمًا فِي جَسَدِ الرَّبِّ وَدَمِهِ.

But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.

وَلكِنْ لِيَمْتَحِنِ الإِنْسَانُ نَفْسَهُ، وَهكَذَا يَأْكُلُ مِنَ الْخُبْزِ وَيَشْرَبُ مِنَ الْكَأْسِ.

For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

لأَنَّ الَّذِي يَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ بِدُونِ اسْتِحْقَاق يَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ دَيْنُونَةً لِنَفْسِهِ، غَيْرَ مُمَيِّزٍ جَسَدَ الرَّبِّ.

For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

مِنْ أَجْلِ هذَا فِيكُمْ كَثِيرُونَ ضُعَفَاءُ وَمَرْضَى، وَكَثِيرُونَ يَرْقُدُونَ.

For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

لأَنَّنَا لَوْ كُنَّا حَكَمْنَا عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا لَمَا حُكِمَ عَلَيْنَا،

But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

وَلكِنْ إِذْ قَدْ حُكِمَ عَلَيْنَا، نُؤَدَّبُ مِنَ الرَّبِّ لِكَيْ لاَ نُدَانَ مَعَ الْعَالَمِ.

Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.

إِذًا يَا إِخْوَتِي، حِينَ تَجْتَمِعُونَ لِلأَكْلِ، انْتَظِرُوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا.

And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.

إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَجُوعُ فَلْيَأْكُلْ فِي الْبَيْتِ، كَيْ لاَ تَجْتَمِعُوا لِلدَّيْنُونَةِ. وَأَمَّا الأُمُورُ الْبَاقِيَةُ فَعِنْدَمَا أَجِيءُ أُرَتِّبُهَا.
