1 Corinthians 11

1 You are to imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.

1 كُونُوا مُتَمَثِّلِينَ بِي كَمَا أَنَا أَيْضًا بِٱلْمَسِيحِ.

2 Now I commend you for remembering me in everything and for maintaining the traditions, just as I passed them on to you.

2 فَأَمْدَحُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ عَلَى أَنَّكُمْ تَذْكُرُونَنِي فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، وَتَحْفَظُونَ ٱلتَّعَالِيمَ كَمَا سَلَّمْتُهَا إِلَيْكُمْ.

3 But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

3 وَلَكِنْ أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ رَأْسَ كُلِّ رَجُلٍ هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ، وَأَمَّا رَأْسُ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ فَهُوَ ٱلرَّجُلُ، وَرَأْسُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ هُوَ ٱللهُ.

4 Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.

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

5 And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for it is just as if her head were shaved.

5 وَأَمَّا كُلُّ ٱمْرَأَةٍ تُصَلِّي أَوْ تَتَنَبَّأُ وَرَأْسُهَا غَيْرُ مُغُطَّى، فَتَشِينُ رَأْسَهَا، لِأَنَّهَا وَٱلْمَحْلُوقَةَ شَيْءٌ وَاحِدٌ بِعَيْنِهِ.

6 If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off. And if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head.

6 إِذِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ، إِنْ كَانَتْ لَا تَتَغَطَّى، فَلْيُقَصَّ شَعَرُهَا. وَإِنْ كَانَ قَبِيحًا بِٱلْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تُقَصَّ أَوْ تُحْلَقَ، فَلْتَتَغَطَّ.

7 A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.

7 فَإِنَّ ٱلرَّجُلَ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُغَطِّيَ رَأْسَهُ لِكَوْنِهِ صُورَةَ ٱللهِ وَمَجْدَهُ. وَأَمَّا ٱلْمَرْأَةُ فَهِيَ مَجْدُ ٱلرَّجُلِ.

8 For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.

8 لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّجُلَ لَيْسَ مِنَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ، بَلِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ مِنَ ٱلرَّجُلِ.

9 Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.

9 وَلِأَنَّ ٱلرَّجُلَ لَمْ يُخْلَقْ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ، بَلِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلرَّجُلِ.

10 For this reason a woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels.

10 لِهَذَا يَنْبَغِي لِلْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهَا سُلْطَانٌ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا، مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةِ.

11 In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.

11 غَيْرَ أَنَّ ٱلرَّجُلَ لَيْسَ مِنْ دُونِ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ، وَلَا ٱلْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ دُونِ ٱلرَّجُلِ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ.

12 For just as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.

12 لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْمَرْأَةَ هِيَ مِنَ ٱلرَّجُلِ، هَكَذَا ٱلرَّجُلُ أَيْضًا هُوَ بِٱلْمَرْأَةِ. وَلَكِنَّ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَشْيَاءِ هِيَ مِنَ ٱللهِ.

13 Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

13 ٱحْكُمُوا فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ: هَلْ يَلِيقُ بِٱلْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ إِلَى ٱللهِ وَهِيَ غَيْرُ مُغَطَّاةٍ؟

14 Doesn’t nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,

14 أَمْ لَيْسَتِ ٱلطَّبِيعَةُ نَفْسُهَا تُعَلِّمُكُمْ أَنَّ ٱلرَّجُلَ إِنْ كَانَ يُرْخِي شَعْرَهُ فَهُوَ عَيْبٌ لَهُ؟

15 but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.

15 وَأَمَّا ٱلْمَرْأَةُ إِنْ كَانَتْ تُرْخِي شَعْرَهَا فَهُوَ مَجْدٌ لَهَا، لِأَنَّ ٱلشَّعْرَ قَدْ أُعْطِيَ لَهَا عِوَضَ بُرْقُعٍ.

16 If anyone is inclined to dispute this, we have no other practice, nor do the churches of God.

16 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يُظْهِرُ أَنَّهُ يُحِبُّ ٱلْخِصَامَ، فَلَيْسَ لَنَا نَحْنُ عَادَةٌ مِثْلُ هَذِهِ، وَلَا لِكَنَائِسِ ٱللهِ.

17 In the following instructions I have no praise to offer, because your gatherings do more harm than good.

17 وَلَكِنَّنِي إِذْ أُوصِي بِهَذَا، لَسْتُ أَمْدَحُ، كَوْنَكُمْ تَجْتَمِعُونَ لَيْسَ لِلْأَفْضَلِ بَلْ لِلْأَرْدَإِ.

18 First of all, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.

18 لِأَنِّي أَوَّلًا حِينَ تَجْتَمِعُونَ فِي ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ، أَسْمَعُ أَنَّ بَيْنَكُمُ ٱنْشِقَاقَاتٍ، وَأُصَدِّقُ بَعْضَ ٱلتَّصْدِيقِ،

19 And indeed, there must be differences among you to show which of you are approved.

19 لِأَنَّهُ لَا بُدَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ بَيْنَكُمْ بِدَعٌ أَيْضًا، لِيَكُونَ ٱلْمُزَكَّوْنَ ظَاهِرِينَ بَيْنَكُمْ.

20 Now then, when you come together, it is not the Lord’s Supper you eat.

20 فَحِينَ تَجْتَمِعُونَ مَعًا لَيْسَ هُوَ لِأَكْلِ عَشَاءِ ٱلرَّبِّ،

21 For as you eat, each of you goes ahead without sharing his meal. While one remains hungry, another gets drunk.

21 لِأَنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ يَسْبِقُ فَيَأْخُذُ عَشَاءَ نَفْسِهِ فِي ٱلْأَكْلِ، فَٱلْوَاحِدُ يَجُوعُ وَٱلْآخَرُ يَسْكَرُ.

22 Don’t you have your own homes in which to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What can I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? No, I will not!

22 أَفَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ بُيُوتٌ لِتَأْكُلُوا فِيهَا وَتَشْرَبُوا؟ أَمْ تَسْتَهِينُونَ بِكَنِيسَةِ ٱللهِ وَتُخْجِلُونَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ؟ مَاذَا أَقُولُ لَكُمْ؟ أَأَمْدَحُكُمْ عَلَى هَذَا؟ لَسْتُ أَمْدَحُكُمْ!

23 For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread,

23 لِأَنَّنِي تَسَلَّمْتُ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ مَا سَلَّمْتُكُمْ أَيْضًا: إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَسُوعَ فِي ٱللَّيْلَةِ ٱلَّتِي أُسْلِمَ فِيهَا، أَخَذَ خُبْزًا

24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”

24 وَشَكَرَ فَكَسَّرَ، وَقَالَ: «خُذُوا كُلُوا هَذَا هُوَ جَسَدِي ٱلْمَكْسُورُ لِأَجْلِكُمُ. ٱصْنَعُوا هَذَا لِذِكْرِي».

25 In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

25 كَذَلِكَ ٱلْكَأْسَ أَيْضًا بَعْدَمَا تَعَشَّوْا، قَائِلًا: «هَذِهِ ٱلْكَأْسُ هِيَ ٱلْعَهْدُ ٱلْجَدِيدُ بِدَمِي. ٱصْنَعُوا هَذَا كُلَّمَا شَرِبْتُمْ لِذِكْرِي».

26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.

26 فَإِنَّكُمْ كُلَّمَا أَكَلْتُمْ هَذَا ٱلْخُبْزَ وَشَرِبْتُمْ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَأْسَ، تُخْبِرُونَ بِمَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى أَنْ يَجِيءَ.

27 Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.

27 إِذًا أَيُّ مَنْ أَكَلَ هَذَا ٱلْخُبْزَ، أَوْ شَرِبَ كَأْسَ ٱلرَّبِّ، بِدُونِ ٱسْتِحْقَاقٍ، يَكُونُ مُجْرِمًا فِي جَسَدِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَدَمِهِ.

28 Each one must examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.

28 وَلَكِنْ لِيَمْتَحِنِ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ نَفْسَهُ، وَهَكَذَا يَأْكُلُ مِنَ ٱلْخُبْزِ وَيَشْرَبُ مِنَ ٱلْكَأْسِ.

29 For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.

29 لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِي يَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ بِدُونِ ٱسْتِحْقَاقٍ يَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ دَيْنُونَةً لِنَفْسِهِ، غَيْرَ مُمَيِّزٍ جَسَدَ ٱلرَّبِّ.

30 That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.

30 مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا فِيكُمْ كَثِيرُونَ ضُعَفَاءُ وَمَرْضَى، وَكَثِيرُونَ يَرْقُدُونَ.

31 Now if we judged ourselves properly, we would not come under judgment.

31 لِأَنَّنَا لَوْ كُنَّا حَكَمْنَا عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا لَمَا حُكِمَ عَلَيْنَا،

32 But when we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.

32 وَلَكِنْ إِذْ قَدْ حُكِمَ عَلَيْنَا، نُؤَدَّبُ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِكَيْ لَا نُدَانَ مَعَ ٱلْعَالَمِ.

33 So, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

33 إِذًا يَا إِخْوَتِي، حِينَ تَجْتَمِعُونَ لِلْأَكْلِ، ٱنْتَظِرُوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا.

34 If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you come together it will not result in judgment. And when I come, I will give instructions about the remaining matters.

34 إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَجُوعُ فَلْيَأْكُلْ فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ، كَيْ لَا تَجْتَمِعُوا لِلدَّيْنُونَةِ. وَأَمَّا ٱلْأُمُورُ ٱلْبَاقِيَةُ فَعِنْدَمَا أَجِيءُ أُرَتِّبُهَا.
