Acts 3

1 One afternoon Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.

1 وَصَعِدَ بُطْرُسُ وَيُوحَنَّا مَعًا إِلَى ٱلْهَيْكَلِ فِي سَاعَةِ ٱلصَّلَاةِ ٱلتَّاسِعَةِ.

2 And a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those entering the temple courts.

2 وَكَانَ رَجُلٌ أَعْرَجُ مِنْ بَطْنِ أُمِّهِ يُحْمَلُ، كَانُوا يَضَعُونَهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ عِنْدَ بَابِ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ ٱلَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ «ٱلْجَمِيلُ» لِيَسْأَلَ صَدَقَةً مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْخُلُونَ ٱلْهَيْكَلَ.

3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money.

3 فَهَذَا لَمَّا رَأَى بُطْرُسَ وَيُوحَنَّا مُزْمِعَيْنِ أَنْ يَدْخُلَا ٱلْهَيْكَلَ، سَأَلَ لِيَأْخُذَ صَدَقَةً.

4 Peter looked directly at him, as did John. “Look at us!” said Peter.

4 فَتَفَرَّسَ فِيهِ بُطْرُسُ مَعَ يُوحَنَّا، وَقَالَ: «ٱنْظُرْ إِلَيْنَا!».

5 So the man gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.

5 فَلَاحَظَهُمَا مُنْتَظِرًا أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْهُمَا شَيْئًا.

6 But Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!”

6 فَقَالَ بُطْرُسُ: «لَيْسَ لِي فِضَّةٌ وَلَا ذَهَبٌ، وَلَكِنِ ٱلَّذِي لِي فَإِيَّاهُ أُعْطِيكَ: بِٱسْمِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ ٱلنَّاصِرِيِّ قُمْ وَٱمْشِ!».

7 Taking him by the right hand, Peter helped him up, and at once the man’s feet and ankles were made strong.

7 وَأَمْسَكَهُ بِيَدِهِ ٱلْيُمْنَى وَأَقَامَهُ، فَفِي ٱلْحَالِ تَشَدَّدَتْ رِجْلَاهُ وَكَعْبَاهُ،

8 He sprang to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and leaping and praising God.

8 فَوَثَبَ وَوَقَفَ وَصَارَ يَمْشِي، وَدَخَلَ مَعَهُمَا إِلَى ٱلْهَيْكَلِ وَهُوَ يَمْشِي وَيَطْفُرُ وَيُسَبِّحُ ٱللهَ.

9 When all the people saw him walking and praising God,

9 وَأَبْصَرَهُ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَهُوَ يَمْشِي وَيُسَبِّحُ ٱللهَ.

10 they recognized him as the man who used to sit begging at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

10 وَعَرَفُوهُ أَنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَجْلِسُ لِأَجْلِ ٱلصَّدَقَةِ عَلَى بَابِ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ ٱلْجَمِيلِ، فَٱمْتَلَأُوا دَهْشَةً وَحَيْرَةً مِمَّا حَدَثَ لَهُ.

11 While the man clung to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and ran to them in the walkway called Solomon’s Colonnade.

11 وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْأَعْرَجُ ٱلَّذِي شُفِيَ مُتَمَسِّكًا بِبُطْرُسَ وَيُوحَنَّا، تَرَاكَضَ إِلَيْهِمْ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ إِلَى ٱلرِّوَاقِ ٱلَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ «رِوَاقُ سُلَيْمَانَ» وَهُمْ مُنْدَهِشُونَ.

12 And when Peter saw this, he addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why are you surprised by this? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?

12 فَلَمَّا رَأَى بُطْرُسُ ذَلِكَ أَجَابَ ٱلشَّعْبَ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ، مَا بَالُكُمْ تَتَعَجَّبُونَ مِنْ هَذَا؟ وَلِمَاذَا تَشْخَصُونَ إِلَيْنَا، كَأَنَّنَا بِقُوَّتِنَا أَوْ تَقْوَانَا قَدْ جَعَلْنَا هَذَا يَمْشِي؟

13 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His servant Jesus. You handed Him over and rejected Him before Pilate, even though he had decided to release Him.

13 إِنَّ إِلَهَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ، إِلَهَ آبَائِنَا، مَجَّدَ فَتَاهُ يَسُوعَ، ٱلَّذِي أَسْلَمْتُمُوهُ أَنْتُمْ وَأَنْكَرْتُمُوهُ أَمَامَ وَجْهِ بِيلَاطُسَ، وَهُوَ حَاكِمٌ بِإِطْلَاقِهِ.

14 You rejected the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you.

14 وَلَكِنْ أَنْتُمْ أَنْكَرْتُمُ ٱلْقُدُّوسَ ٱلْبَارَّ، وَطَلَبْتُمْ أَنْ يُوهَبَ لَكُمْ رَجُلٌ قَاتِلٌ.

15 You killed the Author of life, but God raised Him from the dead, and we are witnesses of this fact.

15 وَرَئِيسُ ٱلْحَيَاةِ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ، ٱلَّذِي أَقَامَهُ ٱللهُ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ، وَنَحْنُ شُهُودٌ لِذَلِكَ.

16 By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know has been made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through Him that has given him this complete healing in your presence.

16 وَبِٱلْإِيمَانِ بِٱسْمِهِ، شَدَّدَ ٱسْمُهُ هَذَا ٱلَّذِي تَنْظُرُونَهُ وَتَعْرِفُونَهُ، وَٱلْإِيمَانُ ٱلَّذِي بِوَاسِطَتِهِ أَعْطَاهُ هَذِهِ ٱلصِّحَّةَ أَمَامَ جَمِيعِكُمْ.

17 And now, brothers, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did your leaders.

17 «وَٱلْآنَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، أَنَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّكُمْ بِجَهَالَةٍ عَمِلْتُمْ، كَمَا رُؤَسَاؤُكُمْ أَيْضًا.

18 But in this way God has fulfilled what He foretold through all the prophets, saying that His Christ would suffer.

18 وَأَمَّا ٱللهُ فَمَا سَبَقَ وَأَنْبَأَ بِهِ بِأَفْوَاهِ جَمِيعِ أَنْبِيَائِهِ، أَنْ يَتَأَلَّمَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ، قَدْ تَمَّمَهُ هَكَذَا.

19 Repent, then, and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped away,

19 فَتُوبُوا وَٱرْجِعُوا لِتُمْحَى خَطَايَاكُمْ، لِكَيْ تَأْتِيَ أَوْقَاتُ ٱلْفَرَجِ مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ.

20 that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that He may send Jesus, the Christ, who has been appointed for you.

20 وَيُرْسِلَ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحَ ٱلْمُبَشَّرَ بِهِ لَكُمْ قَبْلُ.

21 Heaven must take Him in until the time comes for the restoration of all things, which God announced long ago through His holy prophets.

21 ٱلَّذِي يَنْبَغِي أَنَّ ٱلسَّمَاءَ تَقْبَلُهُ، إِلَى أَزْمِنَةِ رَدِّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، ٱلَّتِي تَكَلَّمَ عَنْهَا ٱللهُ بِفَمِ جَمِيعِ أَنْبِيَائِهِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ مُنْذُ ٱلدَّهْرِ.

22 For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to Him in everything He tells you.

22 فَإِنَّ مُوسَى قَالَ لِلْآبَاءِ: إِنَّ نَبِيًّا مِثْلِي سَيُقِيمُ لَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ مِنْ إِخْوَتِكُمْ. لَهُ تَسْمَعُونَ فِي كُلِّ مَا يُكَلِّمُكُمْ بِهِ.

23 Everyone who does not listen to Him will be completely cut off from among his people.’

23 وَيَكُونُ أَنَّ كُلَّ نَفْسٍ لَا تَسْمَعُ لِذَلِكَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ تُبَادُ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ.

24 Indeed, all the prophets from Samuel on, as many as have spoken, have proclaimed these days.

24 وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ أَيْضًا مِنْ صَمُوئِيلَ فَمَا بَعْدَهُ، جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ تَكَلَّمُوا، سَبَقُوا وَأَنْبَأُوا بِهَذِهِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ.

25 And you are sons of the prophets and of the covenant God made with your fathers when He said to Abraham, ‘Through your offspring all the families of the earth will be blessed.’

25 أَنْتُمْ أَبْنَاءُ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ، وَٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلَّذِي عَاهَدَ بِهِ ٱللهُ آبَاءَنَا قَائِلًا لِإِبْراهِيمَ: وَبِنَسْلِكَ تَتَبَارَكُ جَمِيعُ قَبَائِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

26 When God raised up His Servant, He sent Him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”

26 إِلَيْكُمْ أَوَّلًا، إِذْ أَقَامَ ٱللهُ فَتَاهُ يَسُوعَ، أَرْسَلَهُ يُبَارِكُكُمْ بِرَدِّ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ عَنْ شُرُورِهِ».
