Hebrews 5

1 Every high priest is appointed from among men to represent them in matters relating to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

1 لِأَنَّ كُلَّ رَئِيسِ كَهَنَةٍ مَأْخُوذٍ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ يُقَامُ لِأَجْلِ ٱلنَّاسِ فِي مَا لِلهِ،لِكَيْ يُقَدِّمَ قَرَابِينَ وَذَبَائِحَ عَنِ ٱلْخَطَايَا،

2 He is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and misguided, since he himself is subject to weakness.

2 قَادِرًا أَنْ يَتَرَفَّقَ بِٱلْجُهَّالِ وَٱلضَّالِّينَ، إِذْ هُوَ أَيْضًا مُحَاطٌ بِٱلضَّعْفِ.

3 That is why he is obligated to offer sacrifices for his own sins, as well as for the sins of the people.

3 وَلِهَذَا ٱلضَّعْفِ يَلْتَزِمُ أَنَّهُ كَمَا يُقَدِّمُ عَنِ ٱلْخَطَايَا لِأَجْلِ ٱلشَّعْبِ هَكَذَا أَيْضًا لِأَجْلِ نَفْسِهِ.

4 No one takes this honor upon himself; he must be called by God, just as Aaron was.

4 وَلَا يَأْخُذُ أَحَدٌ هَذِهِ ٱلْوَظِيفَةَ بِنَفْسِهِ، بَلِ ٱلْمَدْعُوُّ مِنَ ٱللهِ، كَمَا هَارُونُ أَيْضًا.

5 So also Christ did not take upon Himself the glory of becoming a high priest, but He was called by the One who said to Him: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.”

5 كَذَلِكَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ أَيْضًا لَمْ يُمَجِّدْ نَفْسَهُ لِيَصِيرَ رَئِيسَ كَهَنَةٍ، بَلِ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَهُ: «أَنْتَ ٱبْنِي، أَنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ وَلَدْتُكَ».

6 And in another passage God says: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”

6 كَمَا يَقُولُ أَيْضًا فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ: «أَنْتَ كَاهِنٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ عَلَى رُتْبَةِ مَلْكِي صَادَقَ».

7 During the days of Jesus’ earthly life, He offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the One who could save Him from death, and He was heard because of His reverence.

7 ٱلَّذِي - فِي أَيَّامِ جَسَدِهِ- إِذْ قَدَّمَ بِصُرَاخٍ شَدِيدٍ وَدُمُوعٍ طَلِبَاتٍ وَتَضَرُّعَاتٍ لِلْقَادِرِ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَهُ مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ، وَسُمِعَ لَهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ تَقْوَاهُ،

8 Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from what He suffered.

8 مَعَ كَوْنِهِ ٱبْنًا تَعَلَّمَ ٱلطَّاعَةَ مِمَّا تَأَلَّمَ بِهِ.

9 And having been made perfect, He became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey Him

9 وَإِذْ كُمِّلَ صَارَ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُطِيعُونَهُ، سَبَبَ خَلَاصٍ أَبَدِيٍّ،

10 and was designated by God as high priest in the order of Melchizedek.

10 مَدْعُوًّا مِنَ ٱللهِ رَئِيسَ كَهَنَةٍ عَلَى رُتْبَةِ مَلْكِي صَادَقَ.

11 We have much to say about this, but it is hard to explain, because you are dull of hearing.

11 اَلَّذِي مِنْ جِهَتِهِ ٱلْكَلَامُ كَثِيرٌ عِنْدَنَا، وَعَسِرُ ٱلتَّفْسِيرِ لِنَنْطِقَ بِهِ، إِذْ قَدْ صِرْتُمْ مُتَبَاطِئِي ٱلْمَسَامِعِ.

12 Although by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to reteach you the basic principles of God’s word. You need milk, not solid food!

12 لِأَنَّكُمْ -إِذْ كَانَ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ تَكُونُوا مُعَلِّمِينَ لِسَبَبِ طُولِ ٱلزَّمَانِ- تَحْتَاجُونَ أَنْ يُعَلِّمَكُمْ أَحَدٌ مَا هِيَ أَرْكَانُ بَدَاءَةِ أَقْوَالِ ٱللهِ، وَصِرْتُمْ مُحْتَاجِينَ إِلَى ٱللَّبَنِ، لَا إِلَى طَعَامٍ قَوِيٍّ.

13 For everyone who lives on milk is still an infant, inexperienced in the message of righteousness.

13 لِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَتَنَاوَلُ ٱللَّبَنَ هُوَ عَدِيمُ ٱلْخِبْرَةِ فِي كَلَامِ ٱلْبِرِّ لِأَنَّهُ طِفْلٌ،

14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained their senses to distinguish good from evil.

14 وَأَمَّا ٱلطَّعَامُ ٱلْقَوِيُّ فَلِلْبَالِغِينَ، ٱلَّذِينَ بِسَبَبِ ٱلتَّمَرُّنِ قَدْ صَارَتْ لَهُمُ ٱلْحَوَاسُّ مُدَرَّبَةً عَلَى ٱلتَّمْيِيزِ بَيْنَ ٱلْخَيْرِ وَٱلشَّرِّ.
