Luke 5

1 On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,

1 وَإِذْ كَانَ ٱلْجَمْعُ يَزْدَحِمُ عَلَيْهِ لِيَسْمَعَ كَلِمَةَ ٱللهِ، كَانَ وَاقِفًا عِنْدَ بُحَيْرَةِ جَنِّيسَارَتَ.

2 He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

2 فَرَأَى سَفِينَتَيْنِ وَاقِفَتَيْنِ عِنْدَ ٱلْبُحَيْرَةِ، وَٱلصَّيَّادُونَ قَدْ خَرَجُوا مِنْهُمَا وَغَسَلُوا ٱلشِّبَاكَ.

3 Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.

3 فَدَخَلَ إِحْدَى ٱلسَّفِينَتَيْنِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ لِسِمْعَانَ، وَسَأَلَهُ أَنْ يُبْعِدَ قَلِيلًا عَنِ ٱلْبَرِّ. ثُمَّ جَلَسَ وَصَارَ يُعَلِّمُ ٱلْجُمُوعَ مِنَ ٱلسَّفِينَةِ.

4 When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

4 وَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنَ ٱلْكَلَامِ قَالَ لِسِمْعَانَ: «ٱبْعُدْ إِلَى ٱلْعُمْقِ وَأَلْقُوا شِبَاكَكُمْ لِلصَّيْدِ».

5 “Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

5 فَأَجَابَ سِمْعَانُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، قَدْ تَعِبْنَا ٱللَّيْلَ كُلَّهُ وَلَمْ نَأْخُذْ شَيْئًا. وَلَكِنْ عَلَى كَلِمَتِكَ أُلْقِي ٱلشَّبَكَةَ».

6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

6 وَلَمَّا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ أَمْسَكُوا سَمَكًا كَثِيرًا جِدًّا، فَصَارَتْ شَبَكَتُهُمْ تَتَخَرَّقُ.

7 So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

7 فَأَشَارُوا إِلَى شُرَكَائِهِمُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلسَّفِينَةِ ٱلْأُخْرَى أَنْ يَأْتُوا وَيُسَاعِدُوهُمْ. فَأَتَوْا وَمَلَأُوا ٱلسَّفِينَتَيْنِ حَتَّى أَخَذَتَا فِي ٱلْغَرَقِ.

8 When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

8 فَلَمَّا رَأَى سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ ذَلِكَ خَرَّ عِنْدَ رُكْبَتَيْ يَسُوعَ قَائِلًا: «ٱخْرُجْ مِنْ سَفِينَتِي يَارَبُّ، لِأَنِّي رَجُلٌ خَاطِئٌ!».

9 For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

9 إِذِ ٱعْتَرَتْهُ وَجمِيعَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ دَهْشَةٌ عَلَى صَيْدِ ٱلسَّمَكِ ٱلَّذِي أَخَذُوهُ.

10 and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”

10 وَكَذَلِكَ أَيْضًا يَعْقُوبُ وَيُوحَنَّا ٱبْنَا زَبَدِي ٱللَّذَانِ كَانَا شَرِيكَيْ سِمْعَانَ. فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ لِسِمْعَانَ: «لَاتَخَفْ! مِنَ ٱلْآنَ تَكُونُ تَصْطَادُ ٱلنَّاسَ!».

11 And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

11 وَلَمَّا جَاءُوا بِٱلسَّفِينَتَيْنِ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّ تَرَكُوا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ وَتَبِعُوهُ.

12 While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

12 وَكَانَ فِي إِحْدَى ٱلْمُدُنِ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ مَمْلُوءٌ بَرَصًا. فَلَمَّا رَأَى يَسُوعَ خَرَّ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ وَطَلَبَ إِلَيْهِ قَائِلًا: «يَا سَيِّدُ، إِنْ أَرَدْتَ تَقْدِرْ أَنْ تُطَهِّرَنِي».

13 Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

13 فَمَدَّ يَدَهُ وَلَمَسَهُ قَائِلًا: «أُرِيدُ، فَٱطْهُرْ!». وَلِلْوَقْتِ ذَهَبَ عَنْهُ ٱلْبَرَصُ.

14 “Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

14 فَأَوْصَاهُ أَنْ لَا يَقُولَ لِأَحَدٍ. بَلِ «ٱمْضِ وَأَرِ نَفْسَكَ لِلْكَاهِنِ، وَقَدِّمْ عَنْ تَطْهِيرِكَ كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى شَهَادَةً لَهُمْ».

15 But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

15 فَذَاعَ ٱلْخَبَرُ عَنْهُ أَكْثَرَ. فَٱجْتَمَعَ جُمُوعٌ كَثِيرَةٌ لِكَيْ يَسْمَعُوا وَيُشْفَوْا بِهِ مِنْ أَمْرَاضِهِمْ.

16 Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

16 وَأَمَّا هُوَ فَكَانَ يَعْتَزِلُ فِي ٱلْبَرَارِي وَيُصَلِّي.

17 One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.

17 وَفِي أَحَدِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ كَانَ يُعَلِّمُ، وَكَانَ فَرِّيسِيُّونَ وَمُعَلِّمُونَ لِلنَّامُوسِ جَالِسِينَ وَهُمْ قَدْ أَتَوْا مِنْ كُلِّ قَرْيَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْجَلِيلِ وَٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَأُورُشَلِيمَ. وَكَانَتْ قُوَّةُ ٱلرَّبِّ لِشِفَائِهِمْ.

18 Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,

18 وَإِذَا بِرِجَالٍ يَحْمِلُونَ عَلَى فِرَاشٍ إِنْسَانًا مَفْلُوجًا، وَكَانُوا يَطْلُبُونَ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا بِهِ وَيَضَعُوهُ أَمَامَهُ.

19 but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.

19 وَلَمَّا لَمْ يَجِدُوا مِنْ أَيْنَ يَدْخُلُونَ بِهِ لِسَبَبِ ٱلْجَمْعِ، صَعِدُوا عَلَى ٱلسَّطْحِ وَدَلَّوْهُ مَعَ ٱلْفِرَاشِ مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلْأَجُرِّ إِلَى ٱلْوَسْطِ قُدَّامَ يَسُوعَ.

20 When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

20 فَلَمَّا رَأَى إِيمَانَهُمْ قَالَ لَهُ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ، مَغْفُورَةٌ لَكَ خَطَايَاكَ».

21 But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

21 فَٱبْتَدَأَ ٱلْكَتَبَةُ وَٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ يُفَكِّرُونَ قَائِلِينَ «مَنْ هَذَا ٱلَّذِي يَتَكَلَّمُ بِتَجَادِيفَ؟ مَنْ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ خَطَايَا إِلَّا ٱللهُ وَحْدَهُ؟».

22 Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

22 فَشَعَرَ يَسُوعُ بِأَفْكَارِهِمْ، وَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَاذَا تُفَكِّرُونَ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ؟

23 Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

23 أَيُّمَا أَيْسَرُ: أَنْ يُقَالَ: مَغْفُورَةٌ لَكَ خَطَايَاكَ، أَمْ أَنْ يُقَالَ: قُمْ وَٱمْشِ؟

24 But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins…” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

24 وَلَكِنْ لِكَيْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ لِٱبْنِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ سُلْطَانًا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ ٱلْخَطَايَا»، قَالَ لِلْمَفْلُوجِ: «لَكَ أَقُولُ: قُمْ وَٱحْمِلْ فِرَاشَكَ وَٱذْهَبْ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ!».

25 And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

25 فَفِي ٱلْحَالِ قَامَ أَمَامَهُمْ، وَحَمَلَ مَا كَانَ مُضْطَجِعًا عَلَيْهِ، وَمَضَى إِلَى بَيْتِهِ وَهُوَ يُمَجِّدُ ٱللهَ.

26 Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

26 فَأَخَذَتِ ٱلْجَمِيعَ حَيْرَةٌ وَمَجَّدُوا ٱللهَ، وَٱمْتَلَأُوا خَوْفًا قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّنَا قَدْ رَأَيْنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ عَجَائِبَ!».

27 After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

27 وَبَعْدَ هَذَا خَرَجَ فَنَظَرَ عَشَّارًا ٱسْمُهُ لَاوِي جَالِسًا عِنْدَ مَكَانِ ٱلْجِبَايَةِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱتْبَعْنِي».

28 and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

28 فَتَرَكَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ وَقَامَ وَتَبِعَهُ.

29 Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.

29 وَصَنَعَ لَهُ لَاوِي ضِيَافَةً كَبِيرَةً فِي بَيْتِهِ. وَٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مُتَّكِئِينَ مَعَهُمْ كَانُوا جَمْعًا كَثِيرًا مِنْ عَشَّارِينَ وَآخَرِينَ.

30 But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

30 فَتَذَمَّرَ كَتَبَتُهُمْ وَٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ عَلَى تَلَامِيذِهِ قَائِلِينَ: «لِمَاذَا تَأْكُلُونَ وَتَشْرَبُونَ مَعَ عَشَّارِينَ وَخُطَاةٍ؟».

31 Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

31 فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لَا يَحْتَاجُ ٱلْأَصِحَّاءُ إِلَى طَبِيبٍ، بَلِ ٱلْمَرْضَى.

32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

32 لَمْ آتِ لِأَدْعُوَ أَبْرَارًا بَلْ خُطَاةً إِلَى ٱلتَّوْبَةِ».

33 Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”

33 وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «لِمَاذَا يَصُومُ تَلَامِيذُ يُوحَنَّا كَثِيرًا وَيُقَدِّمُونَ طَلَبَاتٍ، وَكَذَلِكَ تَلَامِيذُ ٱلْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ أَيْضًا، وَأَمَّا تَلَامِيذُكَ فَيَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْرَبُونَ؟».

34 Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

34 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَتَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ تَجْعَلُوا بَنِي ٱلْعُرْسِ يَصُومُونَ مَا دَامَ ٱلْعَرِيسُ مَعَهُمْ؟

35 But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

35 وَلَكِنْ سَتَأْتِي أَيَّامٌ حِينَ يُرْفَعُ ٱلْعَرِيسُ عَنْهُمْ، فَحِينَئِذٍ يَصُومُونَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ».

36 He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.

36 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ أَيْضًا مَثَلًا: «لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَضَعُ رُقْعَةً مِنْ ثَوْبٍ جَدِيدٍ عَلَى ثَوْبٍ عَتِيقٍ، وَإِلَّا فَٱلْجَدِيدُ يَشُقُّهُ، وَٱلْعَتِيقُ لَا تُوافِقُهُ ٱلرُّقْعَةُ ٱلَّتِي مِنَ ٱلْجَدِيدِ.

37 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.

37 وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَجْعَلُ خَمْرًا جَدِيدَةً فِي زِقَاقٍ عَتِيقَةٍ لِئَلَّا تَشُقَّ ٱلْخَمْرُ ٱلْجَدِيدَةُ ٱلزِّقَاقَ، فَهِيَ تُهْرَقُ وَٱلزِّقَاقُ تَتْلَفُ.

38 Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

38 بَلْ يَجْعَلُونَ خَمْرًا جَدِيدَةً فِي زِقَاقٍ جَدِيدَةٍ، فَتُحْفَظُ جَمِيعًا.

39 And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”

39 وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ إِذَا شَرِبَ ٱلْعَتِيقَ يُرِيدُ لِلْوَقْتِ ٱلْجَدِيدَ، لِأَنَّهُ يَقُولُ: ٱلْعَتِيقُ أَطْيَبُ».
