Luke 10

1 After this, the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of Him to every town and place He was about to visit.

1 وَبَعْدَ ذلِكَ عَيَّنَ الرَّبُّ أَيْضاً اثْنَيْنِ وَسَبْعِينَ آخَرِينَ، وَأَرْسَلَهُمُ اثْنَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ، لِيَسْبِقُوهُ إِلَى كُلِّ مَدِينَةٍ وَمَكَانٍ كَانَ عَلَى وَشْكِ الذَّهَابِ إِلَيْهِ.

2 And He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest.

2 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنَّ الْحَصَادَ كَثِيرٌ، وَلكِنَّ الْعُمَّالَ قَلِيلُونَ، فَتَضَرَّعُوا إِلَى رَبِّ الْحَصَادِ أَنْ يَبْعَثَ عُمَّالاً إِلَى حَصَادِهِ.

3 Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.

3 فَاذْهَبُوا! هَا إِنِّي أُرْسِلُكُمْ كَحُمْلانٍ بَيْنَ ذِئَابٍ.

4 Carry no purse or bag or sandals. Do not greet anyone along the road.

4 لَا تَحْمِلُوا صُرَّةَ مَالٍ وَلا كِيسَ زَادٍ وَلا حِذَاءً؛ وَلا تُسَلِّمُوا فِي الطَّرِيقِ عَلَى أَحَدٍ.

5 Whatever house you enter, begin by saying, ‘Peace to this house.’

5 وَأَيَّ بَيْتٍ دَخَلْتُمُوهُ، فَقُولُوا أَوَّلاً: سَلامٌ لِهَذَا الْبَيْتِ!

6 If a man of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; if not, it will return to you.

6 فَإِنْ كَانَ فِي الْبَيْتِ ابْنُ سَلامٍ، يَحِلُّ سَلامُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ. وَإلَّا، فَسَلامُكُمْ يَعُودُ لَكُمْ.

7 Stay at the same house, eating and drinking whatever you are offered. For the worker is worthy of his wages. Do not move around from house to house.

7 وَانْزِلُوا فِي ذلِكَ الْبَيْتِ تَأْكُلُونَ وَتَشْرَبُونَ مِمَّا عِنْدَهُمْ: لأَنَّ الْعَامِلَ يَسْتَحِقُّ أُجْرَتَهُ. لَا تَنْتَقِلُوا مِنْ بَيْتٍ إِلَى بَيْتٍ.

8 If you enter a town and they welcome you, eat whatever is set before you.

8 وَأَيَّةَ مَدِينَةٍ دَخَلْتُمُوهَا وَقَبِلَكُمْ أَهْلُهَا، فَكُلُوا مِمَّا يُقَدَّمُ لَكُمْ،

9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘The kingdom of God is near you.’

9 وَاشْفُوا الْمَرْضَى الَّذِينَ فِيهَا، وَقُولُوا لَهُمْ: قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ مِنْكُمْ مَلَكُوتُ اللهِ!

10 But if you enter a town and they do not welcome you, go into the streets and declare,

10 وَأَيَّةَ مَدِينَةٍ دَخَلْتُمُوهَا وَلَمْ يَقْبَلْكُمْ أَهْلُهَا، فَاخْرُجُوا إِلَى شَوَارِعِهَا، وَقُولُوا:

11 ‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet, we wipe off as a testimony against you. Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God is near.’

11 حَتَّى غُبَارُ مَدِينَتِكُمُ الْعَالِقُ بِأَقْدَامِنَا نَنْفُضُهُ عَلَيْكُمْ، وَلكِنِ اعْلَمُوا هَذَا: أَنَّ مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ!

12 I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that town.

12 أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ سَدُومَ سَتَكُونُ حَالَتُهَا فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَكْثَرَ احْتِمَالاً مِنْ حَالَةِ تِلْكَ الْمَدِينَةِ.

13 Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

13 الْوَيْلُ لَكِ يَا كُورَزِينُ! الْوَيْلُ لَكِ يَا بَيْتَ صَيْدَا! فَلَوْ أُجْرِيَ فِي صُورَ وَصَيْدَا مَا أُجْرِيَ فِيكُمَا مِنَ الْمُعْجِزَاتِ، لَتَابَ أَهْلُهُمَا مُنْذُ الْقَدِيمِ لابِسِينَ الْمُسُوحَ قَاعِدِينَ فِي الرَّمَادِ.

14 But it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you.

14 وَلكِنَّ صُورَ وَصَيْدَا سَتَكُونُ حَالَتُهُمَا فِي الدَّيْنُونَةِ أَكْثَرَ احْتِمَالاً مِنْ حَالَتِكُمَا.

15 And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades!

15 وَأَنْتِ يَا كَفْرَنَاحُومُ، هَلِ ارْتَفَعْتِ حَتَّى السَّمَاءِ؟ إِنَّكِ إِلَى الْهَاوِيَةِ سَتُهْبَطِينَ!

16 Whoever listens to you listens to Me; whoever rejects you rejects Me; and whoever rejects Me rejects the One who sent Me.”

16 مَنْ يَسْمَعْ لَكُمْ يَسْمَعْ لِي، وَمَنْ يَرْفُضْكُمْ يَرْفُضْنِي؛ وَمَنْ يَرْفُضْنِي يَرْفُضِ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي!»

17 The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in Your name.”

17 وَبَعْدَئِذٍ رَجَعَ الاثْنَانِ وَالسَّبْعُونَ فَرِحِينَ، وَقَالُوا: «يَا رَبُّ، حَتَّى الشَّيَاطِينُ تَخْضَعُ لَنَا بِاسْمِكَ!»

18 So He told them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.

18 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «قَدْ رَأَيْتُ الشَّيْطَانَ وَهُوَ يَهْوِي مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مِثْلَ الْبَرْقِ.

19 Behold, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will harm you.

19 وَهَا أَنَا قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُكُمْ سُلْطَةً لِتَدُوسُوا الْحَيَّاتِ وَالْعَقَارِبَ وَقُدْرَةَ الْعَدُوِّ كُلَّهَا، وَلَنْ يُؤْذِيَكُمْ شَيْءٌ أَبَداً.

20 Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

20 إِنَّمَا لَا تَفْرَحُوا بِأَنَّ الأَرْوَاحَ تَخْضَعُ لَكُمْ، بَلِ افْرَحُوا بِأَنَّ أَسْمَاءَكُمْ قَدْ كُتِبَتْ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ».

21 At that time Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and declared, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was well-pleasing in Your sight.

21 فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ ابْتَهَجَ يَسُوعُ بِالرُّوحِ وَقَالَ: «أَحْمَدُكَ أَيُّهَا الآبُ، رَبَّ السَّمَاءِ وَالأَرْضِ، لأَنَّكَ حَجَبْتَ هذِهِ الأُمُورَ عَنِ الْحُكَمَاءِ وَالْفُهَمَاءِ، وَكَشَفْتَهَا لِلأَطْفَالِ. نَعَمْ، أَيُّهَا الآبُ، لأَنَّهُ هكَذَا حَسُنَ فِي نَظَرِكَ!

22 All things have been entrusted to Me by My Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.”

22 كُلُّ شَيْءٍ قَدْ سُلِّمَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ قِبَلِ أَبِي، وَلا أَحَدَ يَعْرِفُ مَنْ هُوَ الاِبْنُ إِلّا الآبُ، وَلا مَنْ هُوَ الآبُ إِلّا الاِبْنُ وَمَنْ أَرَادَ الاِبْنُ أَنْ يُعْلِنَهُ لَهُ!»

23 Then Jesus turned to the disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.

23 ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَى التَّلامِيذِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ عَلَى حِدَةٍ: «طُوبَى لِلْعُيُونِ الَّتِي تَرَى مَا أَنْتُمْ تَرَوْنَ.

24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”

24 فَإِنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ إِنَّ كَثِيرِينَ مِنَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ وَالْمُلُوكِ تَمَنَّوْا أَنْ يَرَوْا مَا تُبْصِرُونَ وَلكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَرَوْا، وَأَنْ يَسْمَعُوا مَا تَسْمَعُونَ وَلكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا».

25 One day an expert in the law stood up to test Him. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

25 وَتَصَدَّى لَهُ أَحَدُ عُلَمَاءِ الشَّرِيعَةِ لِيُجَرِّبَهُ، فَقَالَ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، مَاذَا أَعْمَلُ لأَرِثَ الْحَيَاةَ الأَبَدِيَّةَ؟»

26 “What is written in the Law?” Jesus replied. “How do you read it?”

26 فَقَالَ لَهُ: «مَاذَا كُتِبَ فِي الشَّرِيعَةِ؟ وَكَيْفَ تَقْرَؤهَا؟»

27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”

27 فَأَجَابَ: «أَحِبَّ الرَّبَّ إِلهَكَ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِكَ وَكُلِّ نَفْسِكَ وَكُلِّ قُدْرَتِكَ وَكُلِّ فِكْرِكَ، وَأَحِبَّ قَرِيبَكَ كَنَفْسِكَ».

28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus said. “Do this and you will live.”

28 فَقَالَ لَهُ: «جَوَابُكَ صَحِيحٌ. فَإِنْ عَمِلْتَ بِهَذَا، تَحْيَا!»

29 But wanting to justify himself, he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

29 لكِنَّهُ إِذْ كَانَ رَاغِباً فِي تَبْرِيرِ نَفْسِهِ، سَأَلَ يَسُوعَ: «وَمَنْ هُوَ قَرِيبِي؟»

30 Jesus took up this question and said, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him, beat him, and went away, leaving him half dead.

30 فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ يَسُوعُ قَائِلا: «كَانَ إِنْسَانٌ نَازِلاً مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى أَرِيحَا، فَوَقَعَ بِأَيْدِي لُصُوصٍ، فَانْتَزَعُوا ثِيَابَهُ وَمَالَهُ وَجَرَّحُوهُ، ثُمَّ مَضَوْا وَقَدْ تَرَكُوهُ بَيْنَ حَيٍّ وَمَيْتٍ.

31 Now by chance a priest was going down the same road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

31 وَحَدَثَ أَنَّ كَاهِناً كَانَ نَازِلاً فِي تِلْكَ الطَّرِيقِ، فَرَآهُ وَلكِنَّهُ جَاوَزَهُ إِلَى الْجَانِبِ الآخَرِ.

32 So too, when a Levite came to that spot and saw him, he passed by on the other side.

32 وَكَذلِكَ مَرَّ أَيْضاً وَاحِدٌ مِنَ اللّاوِيِّينَ، فَلَمَّا وَصَلَ إِلَى ذلِكَ الْمَكَانِ، نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ، وَلكِنَّهُ جَاوَزَهُ إِلَى الْجَانِبِ الآخَرِ.

33 But a Samaritan on a journey came upon him, and when he saw him, he had compassion.

33 إِلّا أَنَّ سَامِرِيًّا مُسَافِراً جَاءَ إِلَيْهِ، وَلَمَّا رَآهُ، أَشْفَقَ عَلَيْهِ،

34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

34 فَتَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ وَرَبَطَ جِرَاحَهُ بَعْدَمَا صَبَّ عَلَيْهَا زَيْتاً وَخَمْراً. ثُمَّ أَرْكَبَهُ عَلَى دَابَّتِهِ وَأَوْصَلَهُ إِلَى الْفُنْدُقِ وَاعْتَنَى بِهِ.

35 The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Take care of him,’ he said, ‘and on my return I will repay you for any additional expense.’

35 وَعِنْدَ مُغَادَرَتِهِ الْفُنْدُقَ فِي الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي، أَخْرَجَ دِينَارَيْنِ وَدَفَعَهُمَا إِلَى صَاحِبِ الْفُنْدُقِ، وَقَالَ لَهُ: اعْتَنِ بِهِ! وَمَهْمَا تُنْفِقْ أَكْثَرَ، فَإِنِّي أَرُدُّهُ لَكَ عِنْدَ رُجُوعِي.

36 Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”

36 فَأَيُّ هؤُلاءِ الثَّلاثَةِ يَبْدُو لَكَ قَرِيباً لِلَّذِي وَقَعَ بِأَيْدِي اللُّصُوصِ؟»

37 “The one who showed him mercy,” replied the expert in the law. Then Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”

37 فَأَجَابَ: «إِنَّهُ الَّذِي عَامَلَهُ بِالرَّحْمَةِ!» فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «اذْهَبْ، وَاعْمَلْ أَنْتَ هكَذَا!»

38 As they traveled along, Jesus entered a village where a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home.

38 وَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، دَخَلَ إِحْدَى الْقُرَى، فَاسْتَقْبَلَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ اسْمُهَا مَرْثَا فِي بَيْتِهَا.

39 She had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to His message.

39 وَكَانَ لَهَا أُخْتٌ اسْمُهَا مَرْيَمُ، جَلَسَتْ عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْ يَسُوعَ تَسْمَعُ كَلِمَتَهُ.

40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations to be made. She came to Jesus and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her to help me!”

40 أَمَّا مَرْثَا فَكَانَتْ مُنْهَمِكَةً بِشُؤُونِ الْخِدْمَةِ الْكَثِيرَةِ. فَأَقْبَلَتْ وَقَالَتْ: «يَا رَبُّ، أَمَا تُبَالِي بِأَنَّ أُخْتِي قَدْ تَرَكَتْنِي أَخْدِمُ وَحْدِي؟ فَقُلْ لَهَا أَنْ تُسَاعِدَنِي!»

41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord replied, “you are worried and upset about many things.

41 وَلكِنَّ يَسُوعَ رَدَّ عَلَيْهَا قَائِلاً: «مَرْثَا، مَرْثَا! أَنْتِ مُهْتَمَّةٌ وَقَلِقَةٌ لأُمُورٍ كَثِيرَةٍ.

42 But only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, and it will not be taken away from her.”

42 وَلكِنَّ الْحَاجَةَ هِيَ إِلَى وَاحِدٍ، وَمَرْيَمُ قَدِ اخْتَارَتِ النَّصِيبَ الصَّالِحَ الَّذِي لَنْ يُؤْخَذَ مِنْهَا!»
