Mark 1

1 This is the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

1 هَذِهِ بِدَايَةُ إِنْجِيلِ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ ابْنِ اللهِ:

2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: “Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way.”

2 كَمَا كُتِبَ فِي كِتَابِ إِشَعْيَاءَ: «هَا أَنَا أُرْسِلُ قُدَّامَكَ مَلاكِي الَّذِي يُعِدُّ لَكَ الطَّرِيقَ؛

3 “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for Him.’”

3 صَوْتُ مُنَادٍ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ: أَعِدُّوا طَرِيقَ الرَّبِّ، وَاجْعَلُوا سُبُلَهُ مُسْتَقِيمَةً!»

4 John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.

4 فَقَدْ ظَهَرَ يُوحَنَّا الْمَعْمَدَانُ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ يُنَادِي بِمَعْمُودِيَّةِ التَّوْبَةِ لِمَغْفِرَةِ الْخَطَايَا.

5 People went out to him from all of Jerusalem and the countryside of Judea. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River.

5 وَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ أَهْلُ مِنْطَقَةِ الْيَهُودِيَّةِ وَأَهْلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ جَمِيعاً، فَكَانُوا يَتَعَمَّدُونَ عَلَى يَدِهِ فِي نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ مُعْتَرِفِينَ بِخَطَايَاهُمْ.

6 John was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.

6 وَكَانَ يُوحَنَّا يَلْبَسُ ثَوْباً مِنْ وَبَرِ الْجِمَالِ، وَيَلُفُّ وَسَطَهُ بِحِزَامٍ مِنْ جِلْدٍ، وَيَأْكُلُ الْجَرَادَ وَالْعَسَلَ الْبَرِّيَّ.

7 And he proclaimed: “After me will come One more powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.

7 وَكَانَ يَعِظُ قَائِلاً: «سَيَأْتِي بَعْدِي مَنْ هُوَ أَقْدَرُ مِنِّي، مَنْ لَا أَسْتَحِقُّ أَنْ أَنْحَنِيَ لأَحُلَّ رِبَاطَ حِذَائِهِ.

8 I baptize you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”

8 أَنَا عَمَّدْتُكُمْ بِالْمَاءِ؛ أَمَّا هُوَ فَسَوْفَ يُعَمِّدُكُمْ بِالرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ».

9 In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

9 فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ جَاءَ يَسُوعُ مِنَ النَّاصِرَةِ بِمِنْطَقَةِ الْجَلِيلِ، وَتَعَمَّدَ فِي نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ عَلَى يَدِ يُوحَنَّا.

10 As soon as Jesus came up out of the water, He saw the heavens breaking open and the Spirit descending on Him like a dove.

10 وَبَمُجَرَّدِ أَنْ صَعِدَ مِنَ الْمَاءِ، رَأَى السَّمَاوَاتِ قَدِ انْفَتَحَتْ، وَالرُّوحَ القُدُسَ هَابِطاً عَلَيْهِ كَأَنَّهُ حَمَامَةٌ،

11 And a voice came from heaven: “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”

11 وَإذَا صَوْتٌ مِنَ السَّمَاوَاتِ يَقُولُ: «أَنْتَ ابْنِي الْحَبِيبُ، بِكَ سُرِرْتُ كُلَّ سُرُورٍ!»

12 At once the Spirit drove Jesus into the wilderness,

12 وَفِي الْحَالِ اقْتَادَ الرُّوحُ يَسُوعَ إِلَى الْبَرِّيَّةِ،

13 and He was there for forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and the angels ministered to Him.

13 فَقَضَى فِيهَا أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْماً وَالشَّيْطَانُ يُجَرِّبُهُ. وَكَانَ بَيْنَ الْوُحُوشِ وَمَلائِكَةٌ تَخْدِمُهُ.

14 After the arrest of John, Jesus went into Galilee and proclaimed the gospel of God.

14 وَبَعْدَمَا أُلْقِيَ الْقَبْضُ عَلَى يُوحَنَّا، انْطَلَقَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى مِنْطَقَةِ الْجَلِيلِ، يُعْلِنُ بِشَارَةَ اللهِ قَائِلاً:

15 “The time is fulfilled,” He said, “and the kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe in the gospel!”

15 «قَدِ اكْتَمَلَ الزَّمَانُ وَاقْتَرَبَ مَلَكُوتُ اللهِ. فَتُوبُوا وَآمِنُوا بِالإِنْجِيلِ!»

16 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.

16 وَفِيمَا كَانَ يَسُوعُ يَمْشِي عَلَى شَاطِئِ بُحَيْرَةِ الْجَلِيلِ، رَأَى سِمْعَانَ وَأَخَاهُ أَنْدَرَاوُسَ يُلْقِيَانِ الشَّبَكَةَ فِي الْبُحَيْرَةِ، فَقَدْ كَانَا صَيَّادَيْنِ.

17 “Come, follow Me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.”

17 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا يَسُوعُ: «هَيَّا اتْبَعَانِي، فَأَجْعَلَكُمَا صَيَّادَيْنِ لِلنَّاسِ!»

18 And at once they left their nets and followed Him.

18 فَتَرَكَا شِبَاكَهُمَا وَتَبِعَاهُ.

19 Going on a little farther, He saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat, mending their nets.

19 ثُمَّ سَارَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ قَلِيلاً، فَرَأَى يَعْقُوبَ بْنَ زَبَدِي وَيُوحَنَّا أَخَاهُ فِي الْقَارِبِ يُصْلِحَانِ الشِّبَاكَ،

20 Immediately Jesus called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed Him.

20 فَدَعَاهُمَا فِي الْحَالِ لِيَتْبَعَاهُ، فَتَرَكَا أَبَاهُمَا زَبَدِي فِي الْقَارِبِ مَعَ الأُجَرَاءِ، وَتَبِعَاهُ.

21 Then Jesus and His companions went to Capernaum, and right away Jesus entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and began to teach.

21 ثُمَّ ذَهَبُوا إِلَى كَفْرَنَاحُومَ. فَدَخَلَ حَالاً، فِي يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ، إِلَى الْمَجْمَعِ وَأَخَذَ يُعَلِّمُ.

22 The people were astonished at His teaching, because He taught as one who had authority, and not as the scribes.

22 فَذُهِلَ الْحَاضِرُونَ مِنْ تَعْلِيمِهِ، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ يُعَلِّمُهُمْ كَصَاحِبِ سُلْطَانٍ وَلَيْسَ كَالْكَتَبَةِ.

23 Suddenly a man with an unclean spirit cried out in the synagogue:

23 وَكَانَ فِي مَجْمَعِهِمْ رَجُلٌ يَسْكُنُهُ رُوحٌ نَجِسٌ، فَصَرَخَ

24 “What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”

24 وَقَالَ: «مَا شَأْنُكَ بِنَا يَا يَسُوعُ النَّاصِرِيُّ؟ أَجِئْتَ لِتُهْلِكَنَا؟ أَنَا أَعْرِفُ مَنْ أَنْتَ. أَنْتَ قُدُّوسُ اللهِ!»

25 But Jesus rebuked the spirit. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!”

25 فَزَجَرَهُ يَسُوعُ قَائِلاً: «اخْرَسْ وَاخْرُجْ مِنْهُ!»

26 At this, the unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions and came out with a loud shriek.

26 فَطَرَحَ الرُّوحُ النَّجِسُ الرَّجُلَ، وَصَرَخَ صَرْخَةً عَالِيَةً، وَخَرَجَ مِنْهُ.

27 All the people were amazed and began to ask one another, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him!”

27 فَدُهِشَ الْجَمِيعُ حَتَّى أَخَذُوا يَتَسَاءَلُونَ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ: «مَا هَذَا؟ إِنَّهُ تَعْلِيمٌ جَدِيدٌ، يُلْقَى بسُلْطَانٍ، فَحَتَّى الأَرْوَاحُ النَّجِسَةُ يَأْمُرُهَا فَتُطِيعُهُ!»

28 And the news about Jesus spread quickly through the whole region of Galilee.

28 وَفِي الْحَالِ انْتَشَرَ خَبَرُ يَسُوعَ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ مِنَ الْمِنْطَقَةِ الْمُجَاوِرَةِ لِلْجَلِيلِ.

29 As soon as Jesus and His companions had left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew.

29 وَحَالَمَا غَادَرُوا الْمَجْمَعَ، دَخَلُوا بَيْتَ سِمْعَانَ وَأَنْدَرَاوُسَ، وَمَعَهُمْ يَعْقُوبُ وَيُوحَنَّا.

30 Simon’s mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and they promptly told Jesus about her.

30 وَكَانَتْ حَمَاةُ سِمْعَانَ طَرِيحَةَ الْفِرَاشِ، تُعَانِي مِنَ الْحُمَّى. فَفِي الْحَالِ كَلَّمُوا يَسُوعَ بِشَأْنِهَا.

31 So He went to her, took her by the hand, and helped her up. The fever left her, and she began to serve them.

31 فَاقْتَرَبَ إِلَيْهَا، وَأَمْسَكَ بِيَدِهَا وَأَنْهَضَهَا. فَذَهَبَتْ عَنْهَا الْحُمَّى حَالاً، وَقَامَتْ تَخْدِمُهُمْ.

32 That evening, after sunset, people brought to Jesus all the sick and demon-possessed,

32 وَعِنْدَ حُلُولِ الْمَسَاءِ، لَمَّا غَرَبَتِ الشَّمْسُ، أَحْضَرَ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ جَمِيعَ مَنْ كَانُوا مَرْضَى وَمَسْكُونِينَ بِالشَّيَاطِينِ،

33 and the whole town gathered at the door.

33 حَتَّى احْتَشَدَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ كُلُّهُمْ عِنْدَ البَابِ.

34 And He healed many who were ill with various diseases and drove out many demons. But He would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.

34 فَشَفَى كَثِيرِينَ كَانُوا يُعَانُونَ مِنْ أَمْرَاضٍ مُخْتَلِفَةٍ، وَطَرَدَ شَيَاطِينَ كَثِيرَةً، وَلكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَسْمَحْ لِلشَّيَاطِينِ بِأَنْ يَتَكَلَّمُوا، لأَنَّهُمْ عَرَفُوا مَنْ هُوَ.

35 Early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up and went out to a solitary place to pray.

35 وَفِي الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي، نَهَضَ بَاكِراً قَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ، وَخَرَجَ إِلَى مَكَانٍ مُنْعَزِلٍ وَأَخَذَ يُصَلِّي هُنَاكَ.

36 Simon and his companions went to look for Him,

36 فَذَهَبَ سِمْعَانُ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ يَبْحَثُونَ عَنْهُ. فَلَمَّا وَجَدُوهُ قَالُوا لَهُ:

37 and when they found Him, they said, “Everyone is looking for You!”

37 «إِنَّ الْجَمِيعَ يَطْلُبُونَكَ!»

38 But Jesus answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns so I can preach there as well, for that is why I have come.”

38 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِنَذْهَبْ إِلَى مَكَانٍ آخَرَ فِي الْقُرَى الْمُجَاوِرَةِ لأُبَشِّرَ هُنَاكَ أَيْضاً. فَلأَجْلِ هَذَا جِئْتُ.»

39 So He went throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.

39 وَذَهَبَ يُبَشِّرُ فِي مَجَامِعِ الْيَهُودِ فِي مِنْطَقَةِ الْجَلِيلِ كُلِّهَا، وَيَطْرُدُ الشَّيَاطِينَ.

40 Then a leper came to Jesus, begging on his knees: “If You are willing, You can make me clean.”

40 وَجَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ مُصَابٌ بِالْبَرَصِ يَتَوَسَّلُ إِلَيْهِ. فَارْتَمَى عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ أَمَامَهُ وَقَالَ: «إِنْ أَرَدْتَ، فَأَنْتَ تَقْدِرُ أَنْ تُطَهِّرَنِي!»

41 Moved with compassion, Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!”

41 فَتَحَنَّنَ يَسُوعُ وَمَدَّ يَدَهُ وَلَمَسَهُ قَائِلاً: «أُرِيدُ، فَاطْهُرْ!»

42 And immediately the leprosy left him, and the man was cleansed.

42 فَحَالَمَا تَكَلَّمَ زَالَ الْبَرَصُ عَنْهُ وَطَهَرَ.

43 Jesus promptly sent him away with a stern warning:

43 وَفِي الْحَالِ صَرَفَهُ يَسُوعُ بَعْدَمَا أَنْذَرَهُ بِشِدَّةٍ

44 “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

44 قَائِلاً: «انْتَبِهْ! لَا تُخْبِرْ أَحَداً بِشَيْءٍ، بَلِ اذْهَبْ وَاعْرِضْ نَفْسَكَ عَلَى الْكَاهِنِ، وَقَدِّمْ لِقَاءَ تَطْهِيرِكَ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ مُوسَى، فَيَكُونَ ذَلِكَ شَهَادَةً لَهُمْ!»

45 But the man went out and openly began to proclaim and spread the news. Consequently, Jesus could no longer enter a town in plain view, but He stayed out in solitary places. Yet people came to Him from every quarter.

45 أَمَّا هُوَ، فَانْطَلَقَ يُنَادِي كَثِيراً وَيُذِيعُ الْخَبَرَ، حَتَّى لَمْ يَعُدْ يَسُوعُ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ أَيَّةَ بَلْدَةٍ عَلَناً، بَلْ كَانَ يُقِيمُ فِي أَمَاكِنَ مُقْفِرَةٍ، وَالنَّاسُ يَتَوَافَدُونَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ كُلِّ مَكَانٍ.
