Galatians 5

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

فَاثْبُتُوا إِذًا فِي الْحُرِّيَّةِ الَّتِي قَدْ حَرَّرَنَا الْمَسِيحُ بِهَا، وَلاَ تَرْتَبِكُوا أَيْضًا بِنِيرِ عُبُودِيَّةٍ.

Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

هَا أَنَا بُولُسُ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُ إِنِ اخْتَتَنْتُمْ لاَ يَنْفَعُكُمُ الْمَسِيحُ شَيْئًا!

For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

لكِنْ أَشْهَدُ أَيْضًا لِكُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ مُخْتَتِنٍ أَنَّهُ مُلْتَزِمٌ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ بِكُلِّ النَّامُوسِ.

Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

قَدْ تَبَطَّلْتُمْ عَنِ الْمَسِيحِ أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ تَتَبَرَّرُونَ بِالنَّامُوسِ. سَقَطْتُمْ مِنَ النِّعْمَةِ.

For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

فَإِنَّنَا بِالرُّوحِ مِنَ الإِيمَانِ نَتَوَقَّعُ رَجَاءَ بِرّ.

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

لأَنَّهُ فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ لاَ الْخِتَانُ يَنْفَعُ شَيْئًا وَلاَ الْغُرْلَةُ، بَلِ الإِيمَانُ الْعَامِلُ بِالْمَحَبَّةِ.

Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?

كُنْتُمْ تَسْعَوْنَ حَسَنًا. فَمَنْ صَدَّكُمْ حَتَّى لاَ تُطَاوِعُوا لِلْحَقِّ؟

This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you.

هذِهِ الْمُطَاوَعَةُ لَيْسَتْ مِنَ الَّذِي دَعَاكُمْ.

A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

«خَمِيرَةٌ صَغِيرَةٌ تُخَمِّرُ الْعَجِينَ كُلَّهُ».

I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.

وَلكِنَّنِي أَثِقُ بِكُمْ فِي الرَّبِّ أَنَّكُمْ لاَ تَفْتَكِرُونَ شَيْئًا آخَرَ. وَلكِنَّ الَّذِي يُزْعِجُكُمْ سَيَحْمِلُ الدَّيْنُونَةَ أَيَّ مَنْ كَانَ.

And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.

وَأَمَّا أَنَا أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ فَإِنْ كُنْتُ بَعْدُ أَكْرِزُ بِالْخِتَانِ، فَلِمَاذَا أُضْطَهَدُ بَعْدُ؟ إِذًا عَثْرَةُ الصَّلِيبِ قَدْ بَطَلَتْ.

I would they were even cut off which trouble you.

يَالَيْتَ الَّذِينَ يُقْلِقُونَكُمْ يَقْطَعُونَ أَيْضًا!

For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

فَإِنَّكُمْ إِنَّمَا دُعِيتُمْ لِلْحُرِّيَّةِ أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ. غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لاَ تُصَيِّرُوا الْحُرِّيَّةَ فُرْصَةً لِلْجَسَدِ، بَلْ بِالْمَحَبَّةِ اخْدِمُوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا.

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

لأَنَّ كُلَّ النَّامُوسِ فِي كَلِمَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ يُكْمَلُ:«تُحِبُّ قَرِيبَكَ كَنَفْسِكَ».

But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

فَإِذَا كُنْتُمْ تَنْهَشُونَ وَتَأْكُلُونَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا، فَانْظُرُوا لِئَلاَّ تُفْنُوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا.

This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

وَإِنَّمَا أَقُولُ: اسْلُكُوا بِالرُّوحِ فَلاَ تُكَمِّلُوا شَهْوَةَ الْجَسَدِ.

For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

لأَنَّ الْجَسَدَ يَشْتَهِي ضِدَّ الرُّوحِ وَالرُّوحُ ضِدَّ الْجَسَدِ، وَهذَانِ يُقَاوِمُ أَحَدُهُمَا الآخَرَ، حَتَّى تَفْعَلُونَ مَا لاَ تُرِيدُونَ.

But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

وَلكِنْ إِذَا انْقَدْتُمْ بِالرُّوحِ فَلَسْتُمْ تَحْتَ النَّامُوسِ.

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

وَأَعْمَالُ الْجَسَدِ ظَاهِرَةٌ، الَّتِي هِيَ: زِنىً عَهَارَةٌ نَجَاسَةٌ دَعَارَةٌ

Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

عِبَادَةُ الأَوْثَانِ سِحْرٌ عَدَاوَةٌ خِصَامٌ غَيْرَةٌ سَخَطٌ تَحَزُّبٌ شِقَاقٌ بِدْعَةٌ

Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

حَسَدٌ قَتْلٌ سُكْرٌ بَطَرٌ، وَأَمْثَالُ هذِهِ الَّتِي أَسْبِقُ فَأَقُولُ لَكُمْ عَنْهَا كَمَا سَبَقْتُ فَقُلْتُ أَيْضًا: إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَفْعَلُونَ مِثْلَ هذِهِ لاَ يَرِثُونَ مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

وَأَمَّا ثَمَرُ الرُّوحِ فَهُوَ: مَحَبَّةٌ فَرَحٌ سَلاَمٌ، طُولُ أَنَاةٍ لُطْفٌ صَلاَحٌ، إِيمَانٌ

Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

وَدَاعَةٌ تَعَفُّفٌ. ضِدَّ أَمْثَالِ هذِهِ لَيْسَ نَامُوسٌ.

And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

وَلكِنَّ الَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلْمَسِيحِ قَدْ صَلَبُوا الْجَسَدَ مَعَ الأَهْوَاءِ وَالشَّهَوَاتِ.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

إِنْ كُنَّا نَعِيشُ بِالرُّوحِ، فَلْنَسْلُكْ أَيْضًا بِحَسَبِ الرُّوحِ.

Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

لاَ نَكُنْ مُعْجِبِينَ نُغَاضِبُ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا، وَنَحْسِدُ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا.
