1 Timothy 2

1 First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered for everyone—

1 فَأَطْلُبُ، قَبْلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، أَنْ تُقِيمُوا الطِّلْبَاتِ الْحَارَّةَ وَالصَّلَوَاتِ وَالتَّضَرُّعَاتِ وَالتَّشَكُّرَاتِ لأَجْلِ جَمِيعِ النَّاسِ،

2 for kings and all those in authority—so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity.

2 وَلأَجْلِ الْمُلُوكِ وَأَصْحَابِ السُّلْطَةِ، لِكَيْ نَعِيشَ حَيَاةً مُطْمَئِنَّةً هَادِئَةً كُلِّيَّةَ التَّقْوَى وَالْوَقَارِ.

3 This is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,

3 فَإِنَّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ جَيِّدٌ وَمَقْبُولٌ فِي نَظَرِ اللهِ مُخَلِّصِنَا،

4 who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

4 فَهُوَ يُرِيدُ لِجَمِيعِ النَّاسِ أَنْ يَخْلُصُوا، وَيُقْبِلُوا إِلَى مَعْرِفَةِ الْحَقِّ،

5 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

5 فَإِنَّ اللهَ وَاحِدٌ، وَالْوَسِيطُ بَيْنَ اللهِ وَالنَّاسِ وَاحِدٌ، وَهُوَ الإِنْسَانُ الْمَسِيحُ يَسُوعُ،

6 who gave Himself as a ransom for all—the testimony that was given at just the right time.

6 الَّذِي بَذَلَ نَفْسَهُ فِدْيَةً عِوَضاً عَنِ الْجَمِيعِ. هَذِهِ شَهَادَةٌ تُؤَدَّى فِي أَوْقَاتِهَا الْخَاصَّةِ،

7 For this reason I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a faithful and true teacher of the Gentiles. I am telling the truth; I am not lying about anything.

7 وَلَهَا قَدْ عُيِّنْتُ أَنَا مُبَشِّراً وَرَسُولاً، الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ وَلَسْتُ أَكْذِبُ، مُعَلِّماً لِلأُمَمِ فِي الإِيمَانِ وَالْحَقِّ.

8 Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger or dissension.

8 فَأُرِيدُ إِذَنْ، أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ الرِّجَالُ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ، رَافِعِينَ أَيَادِيَ طَاهِرَةً، وَهُمْ لَا يُضْمِرُونَ أَيَّ حِقْدٍ أَوْ شُكُوكٍ.

9 Likewise, I want the women to adorn themselves with respectable apparel, with modesty, and with self-control, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,

9 كَمَا أُرِيدُ أَيْضاً، أَنْ تَظْهَرَ النِّسَاءُ بِمَظْهَرٍ لائِقٍ مُحْتَشِمِ الثِّيَابِ، مُتَزَيِّنَاتٍ بِالْحَيَاءِ وَالرَّزَانَةِ، غَيْرَ مُتَحَلِّيَاتٍ بِالضَّفَائِرِ وَالذَّهَبِ وَاللآلِئِ وَالْحُلَلِ الْغَالِيَةِ الثَّمَنِ،

10 but with good deeds, as is proper for women who profess to worship God.

10 بَلْ بِمَا يَلِيقُ بِنِسَاءٍ يَعْتَرِفْنَ عَلَناً بِأَنَّهُنَّ يَعِشْنَ فِي تَقْوَى اللهِ، بِالأَعْمَالِ الصَّالِحَةِ!

11 A woman must learn in quietness and full submissiveness.

11 عَلَى الْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تَتَلَقَّى التَّعْلِيمَ بِسُكُوتٍ وَبِكُلِّ خُضُوعٍ.

12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; she is to remain quiet.

12 وَلَسْتُ أَسْمَحُ لِلْمَرْأَةِ أَنْ تُعَلِّمَ وَلا تَتَسَلَّطَ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ. بَلْ عَلَيْهَا أَنْ تَلْزَمَ السُّكُوتَ.

13 For Adam was formed first, and then Eve.

13 ذَلِكَ لأَنَّ آدَمَ كُوِّنَ أَوَّلاً، ثُمَّ حَوَّاءُ:

14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman who was deceived and fell into transgression.

14 وَلَمْ يَكُنْ آدَمُ هُوَ الَّذِي انْخَدَعَ (بِمَكْرِ الشَّيْطَانِ)، بَلِ الْمَرْأَةُ انْخَدَعَتْ، فَوَقَعَتْ فِي الْمَعْصِيَةِ.

15 Women, however, will be saved through childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.

15 إِلا أَنَّهَا سَتَخْلُصُ بِوِلادَةِ الأَوْلادِ، عَلَى أَنْ يَثْبُتْنَ فِي الإِيمَانِ وَالْمَحَبَّةِ وَالْقَدَاسَةِ مَعَ الرَّزَانَةِ!
