1 Timothy 6

1 All who are under the yoke of slavery should regard their masters as fully worthy of honor, so that God’s name and our teaching will not be discredited.

1 جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ عَبِيدٌ تَحْتَ نِيرٍ فَلْيَحْسِبُوا سَادَتَهُمْ مُسْتَحِقِّينَ كُلَّ إِكْرَامٍ، لِئَلَّا يُفْتَرَى عَلَى ٱسْمِ ٱللهِ وَتَعْلِيمِهِ.

2 Those who have believing masters should not show disrespect because they are brothers, but should serve them all the more, since those receiving their good service are beloved believers. Teach and encourage these principles.

2 وَٱلَّذِينَ لَهُمْ سَادَةٌ مُؤْمِنُونَ، لَا يَسْتَهِينُوا بِهِمْ لِأَنَّهُمْ إِخْوَةٌ، بَلْ لِيَخْدِمُوهُمْ أَكْثَرَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَشَارَكُونَ فِي ٱلْفَائِدَةِ، هُمْ مُؤْمِنُونَ وَمَحْبُوبُونَ. عَلِّمْ وَعِظْ بِهَذَا.

3 If anyone teaches another doctrine and disagrees with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and with godly teaching,

3 إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يُعَلِّمُ تَعْلِيمًا آخَرَ، وَلَا يُوافِقُ كَلِمَاتِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ ٱلصَّحِيحَةَ، وَٱلتَّعْلِيمَ ٱلَّذِي هُوَ حَسَبَ ٱلتَّقْوَى،

4 he is conceited and understands nothing. Instead, he has an unhealthy interest in controversies and disputes about words, out of which come envy, strife, abusive talk, evil suspicions,

4 فَقَدْ تَصَلَّفَ، وَهُوَ لَا يَفْهَمُ شَيْئًا، بَلْ هُوَ مُتَعَلِّلٌ بِمُبَاحَثَاتٍ وَمُمَاحَكَاتِ ٱلْكَلَامِ، ٱلَّتِي مِنْهَا يَحْصُلُ ٱلْحَسَدُ وَٱلْخِصَامُ وَٱلِٱفْتِرَاءُ وَٱلظُّنُونُ ٱلرَّدِيَّةُ،

5 and constant friction between men of depraved mind who are devoid of the truth. These men regard godliness as a means of gain.

5 وَمُنَازَعَاتُ أُنَاسٍ فَاسِدِي ٱلذِّهْنِ وَعَادِمِي ٱلْحَقِّ، يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّ ٱلتَّقْوَى تِجَارَةٌ. تَجَنَّبْ مِثْلَ هَؤُلَاءِ.

6 Of course, godliness with contentment is great gain.

6 وَأَمَّا ٱلتَّقْوَى مَعَ ٱلْقَنَاعَةِ فَهِيَ تِجَارَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ.

7 For we brought nothing into the world, so we cannot carry anything out of it.

7 لِأَنَّنَا لَمْ نَدْخُلِ ٱلْعَالَمَ بِشَيْءٍ، وَوَاضِحٌ أَنَّنَا لَا نَقْدِرُ أَنْ نَخْرُجَ مِنْهُ بِشَيْءٍ.

8 But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.

8 فَإِنْ كَانَ لَنَا قُوتٌ وَكِسْوَةٌ، فَلْنَكْتَفِ بِهِمَا.

9 Those who want to be rich, however, fall into temptation and become ensnared by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction.

9 وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا أَغْنِيَاءَ، فَيَسْقُطُونَ فِي تَجْرِبَةٍ وَفَخٍّ وَشَهَوَاتٍ كَثِيرَةٍ غَبِيَّةٍ وَمُضِرَّةٍ، تُغَرِّقُ ٱلنَّاسَ فِي ٱلْعَطَبِ وَٱلْهَلَاكِ.

10 For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.

10 لِأَنَّ مَحَبَّةَ ٱلْمَالِ أَصْلٌ لِكُلِّ ٱلشُّرُورِ، ٱلَّذِي إِذِ ٱبْتَغَاهُ قَوْمٌ ضَلُّوا عَنِ ٱلْإِيمَانِ، وَطَعَنُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ بِأَوْجَاعٍ كَثِيرَةٍ.

11 But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.

11 وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا إِنْسَانَ ٱللهِ فَٱهْرُبْ مِنْ هَذَا، وَٱتْبَعِ ٱلْبِرَّ وَٱلتَّقْوَى وَٱلْإِيمَانَ وَٱلْمَحَبَّةَ وَٱلصَّبْرَ وَٱلْوَدَاعَةَ.

12 Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession before many witnesses.

12 جَاهِدْ جِهَادَ ٱلْإِيمَانِ ٱلْحَسَنَ، وَأَمْسِكْ بِٱلْحَيَاةِ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةِ ٱلَّتِي إِلَيْهَا دُعِيتَ أَيْضًا، وَٱعْتَرَفْتَ ٱلِٱعْتِرَافَ ٱلْحَسَنَ أَمَامَ شُهُودٍ كَثِيرِينَ.

13 I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who made the good confession in His testimony before Pontius Pilate:

13 أُوصِيكَ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي يُحْيِي ٱلْكُلَّ، وَٱلْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ ٱلَّذِي شَهِدَ لَدَى بِيلَاطُسَ ٱلْبُنْطِيِّ بِٱلِٱعْتِرَافِ ٱلْحَسَنِ:

14 Keep this commandment without stain or reproach until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ,

14 أَنْ تَحْفَظَ ٱلْوَصِيَّةَ بِلَا دَنَسٍ وَلَا لَوْمٍ إِلَى ظُهُورِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

15 which the blessed and only Sovereign One—the King of kings and Lord of lords—will bring about in His own time.

15 ٱلَّذِي سَيُبَيِّنُهُ فِي أَوْقَاتِهِ ٱلْمُبَارَكُ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْوَحِيدُ: مَلِكُ ٱلْمُلُوكِ وَرَبُّ ٱلْأَرْبَابِ،

16 He alone is immortal and dwells in unapproachable light. No one has ever seen Him, nor can anyone see Him. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.

16 ٱلَّذِي وَحْدَهُ لَهُ عَدَمُ ٱلْمَوْتِ، سَاكِنًا فِي نُورٍ لَا يُدْنَى مِنْهُ، ٱلَّذِي لَمْ يَرَهُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَلَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَرَاهُ، ٱلَّذِي لَهُ ٱلْكَرَامَةُ وَٱلْقُدْرَةُ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةُ. آمِينَ.

17 Instruct those who are rich in the present age not to be conceited and not to put their hope in the uncertainty of wealth, but in God, who richly provides all things for us to enjoy.

17 أَوْصِ ٱلْأَغْنِيَاءَ فِي ٱلدَّهْرِ ٱلْحَاضِرِ أَنْ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُوا، وَلَا يُلْقُوا رَجَاءَهُمْ عَلَى غَيْرِ يَقِينِيَّةِ ٱلْغِنَى، بَلْ عَلَى ٱللهِ ٱلْحَيِّ ٱلَّذِي يَمْنَحُنَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ بِغِنًى لِلتَّمَتُّعِ.

18 Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, and to be generous and ready to share,

18 وَأَنْ يَصْنَعُوا صَلَاحًا، وَأَنْ يَكُونُوا أَغْنِيَاءَ فِي أَعْمَالٍ صَالِحَةٍ، وَأَنْ يَكُونُوا أَسْخِيَاءَ فِي ٱلْعَطَاءِ، كُرَمَاءَ فِي ٱلتَّوْزِيعِ،

19 treasuring up for themselves a firm foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.

19 مُدَّخِرِينَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ أَسَاسًا حَسَنًا لِلْمُسْتَقْبِلِ، لِكَيْ يُمْسِكُوا بِٱلْحَيَاةِ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةِ.

20 O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you. Avoid irreverent, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of so-called “knowledge,”

20 يَا تِيمُوثَاوُسُ، ٱحْفَظِ ٱلْوَدِيعَةَ، مُعْرِضًا عَنِ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلْبَاطِلِ ٱلدَّنِسِ، وَمُخَالَفَاتِ ٱلْعِلْمِ ٱلْكَاذِبِ ٱلِٱسْمِ،

21 which some have professed and thus swerved away from the faith. Grace be with you all.

21 ٱلَّذِي إِذْ تَظَاهَرَ بِهِ قَوْمٌ زَاغُوا مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْإِيمَانِ.

22 اَلنِّعْمَةُ مَعَكَ. آمِينَ.
