Romans 2

Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

لِذلِكَ أَنْتَ بِلاَ عُذْرٍ أَيُّهَا الإِنْسَانُ، كُلُّ مَنْ يَدِينُ. لأَنَّكَ فِي مَا تَدِينُ غَيْرَكَ تَحْكُمُ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ. لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ الَّذِي تَدِينُ تَفْعَلُ تِلْكَ الأُمُورَ بِعَيْنِهَا!

But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ دَيْنُونَةَ اللهِ هِيَ حَسَبُ الْحَقِّ عَلَى الَّذِينَ يَفْعَلُونَ مِثْلَ هذِهِ.

And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

أَفَتَظُنُّ هذَا أَيُّهَا الإِنْسَانُ الَّذِي تَدِينُ الَّذِينَ يَفْعَلُونَ مِثْلَ هذِهِ، وَأَنْتَ تَفْعَلُهَا، أَنَّكَ تَنْجُو مِنْ دَيْنُونَةِ اللهِ؟

Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

أَمْ تَسْتَهِينُ بِغِنَى لُطْفِهِ وَإِمْهَالِهِ وَطُولِ أَنَاتِهِ، غَيْرَ عَالِمٍ أَنَّ لُطْفَ اللهِ إِنَّمَا يَقْتَادُكَ إِلَى التَّوْبَةِ؟

But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

وَلكِنَّكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ قَسَاوَتِكَ وَقَلْبِكَ غَيْرِ التَّائِبِ، تَذْخَرُ لِنَفْسِكَ غَضَبًا فِي يَوْمِ الْغَضَبِ وَاسْتِعْلاَنِ دَيْنُونَةِ اللهِ الْعَادِلَةِ،

Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

الَّذِي سَيُجَازِي كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ حَسَبَ أَعْمَالِهِ.

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

أَمَّا الَّذِينَ بِصَبْرٍ فِي الْعَمَلِ الصَّالِحِ يَطْلُبُونَ الْمَجْدَ وَالْكَرَامَةَ وَالْبَقَاءَ، فَبِالْحَيَاةِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ.

But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ التَّحَزُّبِ، وَلاَ يُطَاوِعُونَ لِلْحَقِّ بَلْ يُطَاوِعُونَ لِلإِثْمِ، فَسَخَطٌ وَغَضَبٌ،

Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

شِدَّةٌ وَضِيقٌ، عَلَى كُلِّ نَفْسِ إِنْسَانٍ يَفْعَلُ الشَّرَّ: الْيَهُودِيِّ أَوَّلاً ثُمَّ الْيُونَانِيِّ.

But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

وَمَجْدٌ وَكَرَامَةٌ وَسَلاَمٌ لِكُلِّ مَنْ يَفْعَلُ الصَّلاَحَ: الْيَهُودِيِّ أَوَّلاً ثُمَّ الْيُونَانِيِّ.

For there is no respect of persons with God.

لأَنْ لَيْسَ عِنْدَ اللهِ مُحَابَاةٌ.

For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;

لأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ أَخْطَأَ بِدُونِ النَّامُوسِ فَبِدُونِ النَّامُوسِ يَهْلِكُ. وَكُلُّ مَنْ أَخْطَأَ فِي النَّامُوسِ فَبِالنَّامُوسِ يُدَانُ.

(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

لأَنْ لَيْسَ الَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَ النَّامُوسَ هُمْ أَبْرَارٌ عِنْدَ اللهِ، بَلِ الَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ بِالنَّامُوسِ هُمْ يُبَرَّرُونَ.

For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:

لأَنَّهُ الأُمَمُ الَّذِينَ لَيْسَ عِنْدَهُمُ النَّامُوسُ، مَتَى فَعَلُوا بِالطَّبِيعَةِ مَا هُوَ فِي النَّامُوسِ، فَهؤُلاَءِ إِذْ لَيْسَ لَهُمُ النَّامُوسُ هُمْ نَامُوسٌ لأَنْفُسِهِمِ،

Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)

الَّذِينَ يُظْهِرُونَ عَمَلَ النَّامُوسِ مَكْتُوبًا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ، شَاهِدًا أَيْضًا ضَمِيرُهُمْ وَأَفْكَارُهُمْ فِيمَا بَيْنَهَا مُشْتَكِيَةً أَوْ مُحْتَجَّةً،

In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي فِيهِ يَدِينُ اللهُ سَرَائِرَ النَّاسِ حَسَبَ إِنْجِيلِي بِيَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ.

Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

هُوَذَا أَنْتَ تُسَمَّى يَهُودِيًّا، وَتَتَّكِلُ عَلَى النَّامُوسِ، وَتَفْتَخِرُ بِاللهِ،

And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;

وَتَعْرِفُ مَشِيئَتَهُ، وَتُمَيِّزُ الأُمُورَ الْمُتَخَالِفَةَ، مُتَعَلِّمًا مِنَ النَّامُوسِ.

And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,

وَتَثِقُ أَنَّكَ قَائِدٌ لِلْعُمْيَانِ، وَنُورٌ لِلَّذِينَ فِي الظُّلْمَةِ،

An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.

وَمُهَذِّبٌ لِلأَغْبِيَاءِ، وَمُعَلِّمٌ لِلأَطْفَالِ، وَلَكَ صُورَةُ الْعِلْمِ وَالْحَقِّ فِي النَّامُوسِ.

Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

فَأَنْتَ إِذًا الَّذِي تُعَلِّمُ غَيْرَكَ، أَلَسْتَ تُعَلِّمُ نَفْسَكَ؟ الَّذِي تَكْرِزُ: أَنْ لاَ يُسْرَقَ، أَتَسْرِقُ؟

Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

الَّذِي تَقُولُ: أَنْ لاَ يُزْنَى، أَتَزْنِي؟ الَّذِي تَسْتَكْرِهُ الأَوْثَانَ، أَتَسْرِقُ الْهَيَاكِلَ؟

Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

الَّذِي تَفْتَخِرُ بِالنَّامُوسِ، أَبِتَعَدِّي النَّامُوسِ تُهِينُ اللهَ؟

For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

لأَنَّ اسْمَ اللهِ يُجَدَّفُ عَلَيْهِ بِسَبَبِكُمْ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ.

For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

فَإِنَّ الْخِتَانَ يَنْفَعُ إِنْ عَمِلْتَ بِالنَّامُوسِ. وَلكِنْ إِنْ كُنْتَ مُتَعَدِّيًا النَّامُوسَ، فَقَدْ صَارَ خِتَانُكَ غُرْلَةً!

Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

إِذًا إِنْ كَانَ الأَغْرَلُ يَحْفَظُ أَحْكَامَ النَّامُوسِ، أَفَمَا تُحْسَبُ غُرْلَتُهُ خِتَانًا؟

And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

وَتَكُونُ الْغُرْلَةُ الَّتِي مِنَ الطَّبِيعَةِ، وَهِيَ تُكَمِّلُ النَّامُوسَ، تَدِينُكَ أَنْتَ الَّذِي فِي الْكِتَابِ وَالْخِتَانِ تَتَعَدَّى النَّامُوسَ؟

For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

لأَنَّ الْيَهُودِيَّ فِي الظَّاهِرِ لَيْسَ هُوَ يَهُودِيًّا، وَلاَ الْخِتَانُ الَّذِي فِي الظَّاهِرِ فِي اللَّحْمِ خِتَانًا،

But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

بَلِ الْيَهُودِيُّ فِي الْخَفَاءِ هُوَ الْيَهُودِيُّ، وَخِتَانُ الْقَلْبِ بِالرُّوحِ لاَ بِالْكِتَابِ هُوَ الْخِتَانُ، الَّذِي مَدْحُهُ لَيْسَ مِنَ النَّاسِ بَلْ مِنَ اللهِ.
