John 5

1 Some time later there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

1 وَبَعْدَ هَذَا كَانَ عِيدٌ لِلْيَهُودِ، فَصَعِدَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ.

2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool with five covered colonnades, which in Hebrew is called Bethesda.

2 وَفِي أُورُشَلِيمَ عِنْدَ بَابِ ٱلضَّأْنِ بِرْكَةٌ يُقَالُ لَهَا بِٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّةِ «بَيْتُ حِسْدَا» لَهَا خَمْسَةُ أَرْوِقَةٍ.

3 On these walkways lay a great number of the sick, the blind, the lame, and the paralyzed.

3 فِي هَذِهِ كَانَ مُضْطَجِعًا جُمْهُورٌ كَثِيرٌ مِنْ مَرْضَى وَعُمْيٍ وَعُرْجٍ وَعُسْمٍ، يَتَوَقَّعُونَ تَحْرِيكَ ٱلْمَاءِ.

4

4 لِأَنَّ مَلَاكًا كَانَ يَنْزِلُ أَحْيَانًا فِي ٱلْبِرْكَةِ وَيُحَرِّكُ ٱلْمَاءَ. فَمَنْ نَزَلَ أَوَّلًا بَعْدَ تَحْرِيكِ ٱلْمَاءِ كَانَ يَبْرَأُ مِنْ أَيِّ مَرَضٍ ٱعْتَرَاهُ.

5 One man there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.

5 وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ إِنْسَانٌ بِهِ مَرَضٌ مُنْذُ ثَمَانٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً.

6 When Jesus saw him lying there and realized that he had spent a long time in this condition, He asked him, “Do you want to get well?”

6 هَذَا رَآهُ يَسُوعُ مُضْطَجِعًا، وَعَلِمَ أَنَّ لَهُ زَمَانًا كَثِيرًا، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَتُرِيدُ أَنْ تَبْرَأَ؟».

7 “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am on my way, someone else goes in before me.”

7 أَجَابَهُ ٱلْمَرِيضُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، لَيْسَ لِي إِنْسَانٌ يُلْقِينِي فِي ٱلْبِرْكَةِ مَتَى تَحَرَّكَ ٱلْمَاءُ. بَلْ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا آتٍ، يَنْزِلُ قُدَّامِي آخَرُ».

8 Then Jesus told him, “Get up, pick up your mat, and walk.”

8 قَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «قُمِ. ٱحْمِلْ سَرِيرَكَ وَٱمْشِ».

9 Immediately the man was made well, and he picked up his mat and began to walk. Now this happened on the Sabbath day,

9 فَحَالًا بَرِئَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ وَحَمَلَ سَرِيرَهُ وَمَشَى. وَكَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ سَبْتٌ.

10 so the Jews said to the man who had been healed, “This is the Sabbath! It is unlawful for you to carry your mat.”

10 فَقَالَ ٱلْيَهُودُ لِلَّذِي شُفِيَ: «إِنَّهُ سَبْتٌ! لَا يَحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَحْمِلَ سَرِيرَكَ».

11 But he answered, “The man who made me well told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’”

11 أَجَابَهُمْ: «إِنَّ ٱلَّذِي أَبْرَأَنِي هُوَ قَالَ لِي: ٱحْمِلْ سَرِيرَكَ وَٱمْشِ».

12 “Who is this man who told you to pick it up and walk?” they asked.

12 فَسَأَلُوهُ: «مَنْ هُوَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَكَ: ٱحْمِلْ سَرِيرَكَ وَٱمْشِ؟».

13 But the man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away while the crowd was there.

13 أَمَّا ٱلَّذِي شُفِيَ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَعْلَمُ مَنْ هُوَ، لِأَنَّ يَسُوعَ ٱعْتَزَلَ، إِذْ كَانَ فِي ٱلْمَوْضِعِ جَمْعٌ.

14 Afterward, Jesus found the man at the temple and said to him, “See, you have been made well. Stop sinning, or something worse may happen to you.”

14 بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَجَدَهُ يَسُوعُ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «هَا أَنْتَ قَدْ بَرِئْتَ، فَلَا تُخْطِئْ أَيْضًا، لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ لَكَ أَشَرُّ».

15 And the man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

15 فَمَضَى ٱلْإِنْسَانُ وَأَخْبَرَ ٱلْيَهُودَ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي أَبْرَأَهُ.

16 Now because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jews began to persecute Him.

16 وَلِهَذَا كَانَ ٱلْيَهُودُ يَطْرُدُونَ يَسُوعَ، وَيَطْلُبُونَ أَنْ يَقْتُلُوهُ، لِأَنَّهُ عَمِلَ هَذَا فِي سَبْتٍ.

17 But Jesus answered them, “To this very day My Father is at His work, and I too am working.”

17 فَأَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «أَبِي يَعْمَلُ حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ وَأَنَا أَعْمَلُ».

18 Because of this, the Jews tried all the harder to kill Him. Not only was He breaking the Sabbath, but He was even calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God.

18 فَمِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا كَانَ ٱلْيَهُودُ يَطْلُبُونَ أَكْثَرَ أَنْ يَقْتُلُوهُ، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَنْقُضِ ٱلسَّبْتَ فَقَطْ، بَلْ قَالَ أَيْضًا إِنَّ ٱللهَ أَبُوهُ، مُعَادِلًا نَفْسَهُ بِٱللهِ.

19 So Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing by Himself, unless He sees the Father doing it. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does.

19 فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱلْحَقَّ ٱلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لَا يَقْدِرُ ٱلِٱبْنُ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ شَيْئًا إِلَّا مَا يَنْظُرُ ٱلْآبَ يَعْمَلُ. لِأَنْ مَهْمَا عَمِلَ ذَاكَ فَهَذَا يَعْمَلُهُ ٱلِٱبْنُ كَذَلِكَ.

20 The Father loves the Son and shows Him all He does. And to your amazement, He will show Him even greater works than these.

20 لِأَنَّ ٱلْآبَ يُحِبُّ ٱلِٱبْنَ وَيُرِيهِ جَمِيعَ مَا هُوَ يَعْمَلُهُ، وَسَيُرِيهِ أَعْمَالًا أَعْظَمَ مِنْ هَذِهِ لِتَتَعَجَّبُوا أَنْتُمْ.

21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He wishes.

21 لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْآبَ يُقِيمُ ٱلْأَمْوَاتَ وَيُحْيِي، كَذَلِكَ ٱلِٱبْنُ أَيْضًا يُحْيِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ.

22 Furthermore, the Father judges no one, but has assigned all judgment to the Son,

22 لِأَنَّ ٱلْآبَ لَا يَدِينُ أَحَدًا، بَلْ قَدْ أَعْطَى كُلَّ ٱلدَّيْنُونَةِ لِلِٱبْنِ،

23 so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

23 لِكَيْ يُكْرِمَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ ٱلِٱبْنَ كَمَا يُكْرِمُونَ ٱلْآبَ. مَنْ لَا يُكْرِمُ ٱلِٱبْنَ لَا يُكْرِمُ ٱلْآبَ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَهُ.

24 Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not come under judgment. Indeed, he has crossed over from death to life.

24 «اَلْحَقَّ ٱلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ كَلَامِي وَيُؤْمِنُ بِالَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي فَلَهُ حَيَاةٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ، وَلَا يَأْتِي إِلَى دَيْنُونَةٍ، بَلْ قَدِ ٱنْتَقَلَ مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ إِلَى ٱلْحَيَاةِ.

25 Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

25 اَلْحَقَّ ٱلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُ تَأْتِي سَاعَةٌ وَهِيَ ٱلْآنَ، حِينَ يَسْمَعُ ٱلْأَمْوَاتُ صَوْتَ ٱبْنِ ٱللهِ، وَٱلسَّامِعُونَ يَحْيَوْنَ.

26 For as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted the Son to have life in Himself.

26 لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْآبَ لَهُ حَيَاةٌ فِي ذَاتِهِ، كَذَلِكَ أَعْطَى ٱلِٱبْنَ أَيْضًا أَنْ تَكُونَ لَهُ حَيَاةٌ فِي ذَاتِهِ،

27 And He has given Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.

27 وَأَعْطَاهُ سُلْطَانًا أَنْ يَدِينَ أَيْضًا، لِأَنَّهُ ٱبْنُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ.

28 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice

28 لَا تَتَعَجَّبُوا مِنْ هَذَا، فَإِنَّهُ تَأْتِي سَاعَةٌ فِيهَا يَسْمَعُ جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْقُبُورِ صَوْتَهُ،

29 and come out—those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.

29 فَيَخْرُجُ ٱلَّذِينَ فَعَلُوا ٱلصَّالِحَاتِ إِلَى قِيَامَةِ ٱلْحَيَاةِ، وَٱلَّذِينَ عَمِلُوا ٱلسَّيِّئَاتِ إِلَى قِيَامَةِ ٱلدَّيْنُونَةِ.

30 I can do nothing by Myself; I judge only as I hear. And My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

30 أَنَا لَا أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ مِنْ نَفْسِي شَيْئًا. كَمَا أَسْمَعُ أَدِينُ، وَدَيْنُونَتِي عَادِلَةٌ، لِأَنِّي لَا أَطْلُبُ مَشِيئَتِي بَلْ مَشِيئَةَ ٱلْآبِ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي.

31 If I testify about Myself, My testimony is not valid.

31 «إِنْ كُنْتُ أَشْهَدُ لِنَفْسِي فَشَهَادَتِي لَيْسَتْ حَقًّا.

32 There is another who testifies about Me, and I know that His testimony about Me is valid.

32 ٱلَّذِي يَشْهَدُ لِي هُوَ آخَرُ، وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ شَهَادَتَهُ ٱلَّتِي يَشْهَدُهَا لِي هِيَ حَقٌّ.

33 You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.

33 أَنْتُمْ أَرْسَلْتُمْ إِلَى يُوحَنَّا فَشَهِدَ لِلْحَقِّ.

34 Even though I do not accept human testimony, I say these things so that you may be saved.

34 وَأَنَا لَا أَقْبَلُ شَهَادَةً مِنْ إِنْسَانٍ، وَلَكِنِّي أَقُولُ هَذَا لِتَخْلُصُوا أَنْتُمْ.

35 John was a lamp that burned and gave light, and you were willing for a season to bask in his light.

35 كَانَ هُوَ ٱلسِّرَاجَ ٱلْمُوقَدَ ٱلْمُنِيرَ، وَأَنْتُمْ أَرَدْتُمْ أَنْ تَبْتَهِجُوا بِنُورِهِ سَاعَةً.

36 But I have testimony more substantial than that of John. For the works that the Father has given Me to accomplish—the very works I am doing—testify about Me that the Father has sent Me.

36 وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَلِي شَهَادَةٌ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ يُوحَنَّا، لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَعْمَالَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَانِي ٱلْآبُ لِأُكَمِّلَهَا، هَذِهِ ٱلْأَعْمَالُ بِعَيْنِهَا ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أَعْمَلُهَا هِيَ تَشْهَدُ لِي أَنَّ ٱلْآبَ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي.

37 And the Father who sent Me has Himself testified about Me. You have never heard His voice nor seen His form,

37 وَٱلْآبُ نَفْسُهُ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي يَشْهَدُ لِي. لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا صَوْتَهُ قَطُّ، وَلَا أَبْصَرْتُمْ هَيْئَتَهُ،

38 nor does His word abide in you, because you do not believe the One He sent.

38 وَلَيْسَتْ لَكُمْ كَلِمَتُهُ ثَابِتَةً فِيكُمْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَهُ هُوَ لَسْتُمْ أَنْتُمْ تُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ.

39 You pore over the Scriptures because you presume that by them you possess eternal life. These are the very words that testify about Me,

39 فَتِّشُوا ٱلْكُتُبَ لِأَنَّكُمْ تَظُنُّونَ أَنَّ لَكُمْ فِيهَا حَيَاةً أَبَدِيَّةً. وَهِيَ ٱلَّتِي تَشْهَدُ لِي.

40 yet you refuse to come to Me to have life.

40 وَلَا تُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَأْتُوا إِلَيَّ لِتَكُونَ لَكُمْ حَيَاةٌ.

41 I do not accept glory from men,

41 «مَجْدًا مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ لَسْتُ أَقْبَلُ،

42 but I know you, that you do not have the love of God within you.

42 وَلَكِنِّي قَدْ عَرَفْتُكُمْ أَنْ لَيْسَتْ لَكُمْ مَحَبَّةُ ٱللهِ فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ.

43 I have come in My Father’s name, and you have not received Me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will receive him.

43 أَنَا قَدْ أَتَيْتُ بِٱسْمِ أَبِي وَلَسْتُمْ تَقْبَلُونَنِي. إِنْ أَتَى آخَرُ بِٱسْمِ نَفْسِهِ فَذَلِكَ تَقْبَلُونَهُ.

44 How can you believe if you accept glory from one another, yet do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

44 كَيْفَ تَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ تُؤْمِنُوا وَأَنْتُمْ تَقْبَلُونَ مَجْدًا بَعْضُكُمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ، وَٱلْمَجْدُ ٱلَّذِي مِنَ ٱلْإِلَهِ ٱلْوَاحِدِ لَسْتُمْ تَطْلُبُونَهُ؟

45 Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, in whom you have put your hope.

45 «لَا تَظُنُّوا أَنِّي أَشْكُوكُمْ إِلَى ٱلْآبِ. يُوجَدُ ٱلَّذِي يَشْكُوكُمْ وَهُوَ مُوسَى، ٱلَّذِي عَلَيْهِ رَجَاؤُكُمْ.

46 If you had believed Moses, you would believe Me, because he wrote about Me.

46 لِأَنَّكُمْ لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تُصَدِّقُونَ مُوسَى لَكُنْتُمْ تُصَدِّقُونَنِي، لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ كَتَبَ عَنِّي.

47 But since you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?”

47 فَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَسْتُمْ تُصَدِّقُونَ كُتُبَ ذَاكَ، فَكَيْفَ تُصَدِّقُونَ كَلَامِي؟».
