2 Thessalonians 2

1 Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to Him, we ask you, brothers,

1 ثُمَّ نَسْأَلُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ مِنْ جِهَةِ مَجِيءِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ وَٱجْتِمَاعِنَا إِلَيْهِ،

2 not to be easily disconcerted or alarmed by any spirit or message or letter seeming to be from us, alleging that the Day of the Lord has already come.

2 أَنْ لَا تَتَزَعْزَعُوا سَرِيعًا عَنْ ذِهْنِكُمْ، وَلَا تَرْتَاعُوا، لَا بِرُوحٍ وَلَا بِكَلِمَةٍ وَلَا بِرِسَالَةٍ كَأَنَّهَا مِنَّا: أَيْ أَنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ قَدْ حَضَرَ.

3 Let no one deceive you in any way, for it will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness—the son of destruction—is revealed.

3 لَا يَخْدَعَنَّكُمْ أَحَدٌ عَلَى طَرِيقَةٍ مَا، لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَأْتِي إِنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ ٱلِٱرْتِدَادُ أَوَّلًا، وَيُسْتَعْلَنْ إِنْسَانُ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ، ٱبْنُ ٱلْهَلَاكِ،

4 He will oppose and exalt himself above every so-called god or object of worship. So he will seat himself in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.

4 ٱلْمُقَاوِمُ وَٱلْمُرْتَفِعُ عَلَى كُلِّ مَا يُدْعَى إِلَهًا أَوْ مَعْبُودًا، حَتَّى إِنَّهُ يَجْلِسُ فِي هَيْكَلِ ٱللهِ كَإِلَهٍ، مُظْهِرًا نَفْسَهُ أَنَّهُ إِلَهٌ.

5 Do you not remember that I told you these things while I was still with you?

5 أَمَا تَذْكُرُونَ أَنِّي وَأَنَا بَعْدُ عِنْدَكُمْ، كُنْتُ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ هَذَا؟

6 And you know what is now restraining him, so that he may be revealed at the proper time.

6 وَٱلْآنَ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا يَحْجِزُ حَتَّى يُسْتَعْلَنَ فِي وَقْتِهِ.

7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work, but the one who now restrains it will continue until he is taken out of the way.

7 لِأَنَّ سِرَّ ٱلْإِثْمِ ٱلْآنَ يَعْمَلُ فَقَطْ، إِلَى أَنْ يُرْفَعَ مِنَ ٱلْوَسَطِ ٱلَّذِي يَحْجِزُ ٱلْآنَ،

8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will slay with the breath of His mouth and annihilate by the majesty of His arrival.

8 وَحِينَئِذٍ سَيُسْتَعْلَنُ ٱلْأَثِيمُ، ٱلَّذِي ٱلرَّبُّ يُبِيدُهُ بِنَفْخَةِ فَمِهِ، وَيُبْطِلُهُ بِظُهُورِ مَجِيئِهِ.

9 The coming of the lawless one will be accompanied by the working of Satan, with every kind of power, sign, and false wonder,

9 ٱلَّذِي مَجِيئُهُ بِعَمَلِ ٱلشَّيْطَانِ، بِكُلِّ قُوَّةٍ، وَبِآيَاتٍ وَعَجَائِبَ كَاذِبَةٍ،

10 and with every wicked deception directed against those who are perishing, because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them.

10 وَبِكُلِّ خَدِيعَةِ ٱلْإِثْمِ، فِي ٱلْهَالِكِينَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَقْبَلُوا مَحَبَّةَ ٱلْحَقِّ حَتَّى يَخْلُصُوا.

11 For this reason God will send them a powerful delusion so that they believe the lie,

11 وَلِأَجْلِ هَذَا سَيُرْسِلُ إِلَيْهِمُ ٱللهُ عَمَلَ ٱلضَّلَالِ، حَتَّى يُصَدِّقُوا ٱلْكَذِبَ،

12 in order that judgment may come upon all who have disbelieved the truth and delighted in wickedness.

12 لِكَيْ يُدَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يُصَدِّقُوا ٱلْحَقَّ، بَلْ سُرُّوا بِٱلْإِثْمِ.

13 But we should always thank God for you, brothers who are loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning to be saved by the sanctification of the Spirit and by faith in the truth.

13 وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَيَنْبَغِي لَنَا أَنْ نَشْكُرَ ٱللهَ كُلَّ حِينٍ لِأَجْلِكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ ٱلْمَحْبُوبُونَ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ، أَنَّ ٱللهَ ٱخْتَارَكُمْ مِنَ ٱلْبَدْءِ لِلْخَلَاصِ، بِتَقْدِيسِ ٱلرُّوحِ وَتَصْدِيقِ ٱلْحَقِّ.

14 To this He called you through our gospel, so that you may share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

14 ٱلْأَمْرُ ٱلَّذِي دَعَاكُمْ إِلَيْهِ بِإِنْجِيلِنَا، لِٱقْتِنَاءِ مَجْدِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

15 Therefore, brothers, stand firm and cling to the traditions we taught you, whether by speech or by letter.

15 فَٱثْبُتُوا إِذًا أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ وَتَمَسَّكُوا بِٱلتَّعَالِيمِ ٱلَّتِي تَعَلَّمْتُمُوهَا، سَوَاءٌ كَانَ بِٱلْكَلَامِ أَمْ بِرِسَالَتِنَا.

16 Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who by grace has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope,

16 وَرَبُّنَا نَفْسُهُ يَسُوعُ ٱلْمَسِيحُ، وَٱللهُ أَبُونَا ٱلَّذِي أَحَبَّنَا وَأَعْطَانَا عَزَاءً أَبَدِيًّا وَرَجَاءً صَالِحًا بِٱلنِّعْمَةِ،

17 encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good word and deed.

17 يُعَزِّي قُلُوبَكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتُكُمْ فِي كُلِّ كَلَامٍ وَعَمَلٍ صَالِحٍ.
