Mark 13

1 As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, “Teacher, look at the magnificent stones and buildings!”

1 وَفِيمَا هُوَ خَارِجٌ مِنَ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ، قَالَ لَهُ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ تَلَامِيذِهِ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، ٱنْظُرْ! مَا هَذِهِ ٱلْحِجَارَةُ! وَهَذِهِ ٱلْأَبْنِيَةُ!».

2 “Do you see all these great buildings?” Jesus replied. “Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”

2 فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَتَنْظُرُ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَبْنِيَةَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ؟ لَا يُتْرَكُ حَجَرٌ عَلَى حَجَرٍ لَا يُنْقَضُ».

3 While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked Him privately,

3 وَفِيمَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ عَلَى جَبَلِ ٱلزَّيْتُونِ، تُجَاهَ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ، سَأَلَهُ بُطْرُسُ وَيَعْقُوبُ وَيُوحَنَّا وَأَنْدَرَاوُسُ عَلَى ٱنْفِرَادٍ:

4 “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to be fulfilled?”

4 «قُلْ لَنَا مَتَى يَكُونُ هَذَا؟ وَمَا هِيَ ٱلْعَلَامَةُ عِنْدَمَا يَتِمُّ جَمِيعُ هَذَا؟».

5 Jesus began by telling them, “See to it that no one deceives you.

5 فَأَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ وَٱبْتَدَأَ يَقُولُ: «ٱنْظُرُوا! لَا يُضِلُّكُمْ أَحَدٌ.

6 Many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am He,’ and will deceive many.

6 فَإِنَّ كَثِيرِينَ سَيَأْتُونَ بِٱسْمِي قَائِلِينَ: إِنِّي أَنَا هُوَ! وَيُضِلُّونَ كَثِيرِينَ.

7 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come.

7 فَإِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ بِحُرُوبٍ وَبِأَخْبَارِ حُرُوبٍ فَلَا تَرْتَاعُوا، لِأَنَّهَا لَابُدَّ أَنْ تَكُونَ، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ ٱلْمُنْتَهَى بَعْدُ.

8 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, as well as famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.

8 لِأَنَّهُ تَقُومُ أُمَّةٌ عَلَى أُمَّةٍ، وَمَمْلَكَةٌ عَلَى مَمْلَكَةٍ، وَتَكُونُ زَلَازِلُ فِي أَمَاكِنَ، وَتَكُونُ مَجَاعَاتٌ وَٱضْطِرَابَاتٌ. هَذِهِ مُبْتَدَأُ ٱلْأَوْجَاعِ.

9 So be on your guard. You will be delivered over to the councils and beaten in the synagogues. On My account you will stand before governors and kings as witnesses to them.

9 فَٱنْظُرُوا إِلَى نُفُوسِكُمْ. لِأَنَّهُمْ سَيُسَلِّمُونَكُمْ إِلَى مَجَالِسَ، وَتُجْلَدُونَ فِي مَجَامِعَ، وَتُوقَفُونَ أَمَامَ وُلَاةٍ وَمُلُوكٍ، مِنْ أَجْلِي، شَهَادَةً لَهُمْ.

10 And the gospel must first be proclaimed to all the nations.

10 وَيَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُكْرَزَ أَوَّلًا بِٱلْإِنْجِيلِ فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلْأُمَمِ.

11 But when they arrest you and hand you over, do not worry beforehand what to say. Instead, speak whatever you are given at that time, for it will not be you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.

11 فَمَتَى سَاقُوكُمْ لِيُسَلِّمُوكُمْ، فَلَا تَعْتَنُوا مِنْ قَبْلُ بِمَا تَتَكَلَّمُونَ وَلَا تَهْتَمُّوا، بَلْ مَهْمَا أُعْطِيتُمْ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ فَبِذَلِكَ تَكَلَّمُوا. لِأَنْ لَسْتُمْ أَنْتُمُ ٱلْمُتَكَلِّمِينَ بَلِ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ.

12 Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.

12 وَسَيُسْلِمُ ٱلْأَخُ أَخَاهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ، وَٱلْأَبُ وَلَدَهُ، وَيَقُومُ ٱلْأَوْلَادُ عَلَى وَالِدِيهِمْ وَيَقْتُلُونَهُمْ.

13 You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

13 وَتَكُونُونَ مُبْغَضِينَ مِنَ ٱلْجَمِيعِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱسْمِي. وَلَكِنَّ ٱلَّذِي يَصْبِرُ إِلَى ٱلْمُنْتَهَى فَهَذَا يَخْلُصُ.

14 So when you see the abomination of desolation standing where it should not be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

14 فَمَتَى نَظَرْتُمْ «رِجْسَةَ ٱلْخَرَابِ» ٱلَّتِي قَالَ عَنْهَا دَانِيآلُ ٱلنَّبِيُّ، قَائِمَةً حَيْثُ لَا يَنْبَغِي-لِيَفْهَمِ ٱلْقَارِئُ- فَحِينَئِذٍ لِيَهْرُبِ ٱلَّذِينَ فيِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ إِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ،

15 Let no one on the housetop go back inside to retrieve anything from his house.

15 وَٱلَّذِي عَلَى ٱلسَّطْحِ فَلَا يَنْزِلْ إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَلَا يَدْخُلْ لِيَأْخُذَ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ شَيْئًا،

16 And let no one in the field return for his cloak.

16 وَٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ فَلَا يَرْجِعْ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ لِيَأْخُذَ ثَوْبَهُ.

17 How miserable those days will be for pregnant and nursing mothers!

17 وَوَيْلٌ لِلْحَبَالَى وَٱلْمُرْضِعَاتِ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ!

18 Pray that this will not occur in the winter.

18 وَصَلُّوا لِكَيْ لَا يَكُونَ هَرَبُكُمْ فِي شِتَاءٍ.

19 For those will be days of tribulation unseen from the beginning of God’s creation until now, and never to be seen again.

19 لِأَنَّهُ يَكُونُ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ضِيقٌ لَمْ يَكُنْ مِثْلُهُ مُنْذُ ٱبْتِدَاءِ ٱلْخَلِيقَةِ ٱلَّتِي خَلَقَهَا ٱللهُ إِلَى ٱلْآنَ، وَلَنْ يَكُونَ.

20 If the Lord had not cut short those days, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom He has chosen, He has cut them short.

20 وَلَوْ لَمْ يُقَصِّرِ ٱلرَّبُّ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامَ، لَمْ يَخْلُصْ جَسَدٌ. وَلَكِنْ لِأَجْلِ ٱلْمُخْتَارِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱخْتَارَهُمْ، قَصَّرَ ٱلْأَيَّامَ.

21 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it.

21 حِينَئِذٍ إِنْ قَالَ لَكُمْ أَحَدٌ: هُوَذَا ٱلْمَسِيحُ هُنَا! أَوْ: هُوَذَا هُنَاكَ! فَلَا تُصَدِّقُوا.

22 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and wonders to deceive even the elect, if that were possible.

22 لِأَنَّهُ سَيَقُومُ مُسَحَاءُ كَذَبَةٌ وَأَنْبِيَاءُ كَذَبَةٌ، وَيُعْطُونَ آيَاتٍ وَعَجَائِبَ، لِكَيْ يُضِلُّوا لَوْ أَمْكَنَ ٱلْمُخْتَارِينَ أَيْضًا.

23 So be on your guard; I have told you everything in advance.

23 فَٱنْظُرُوا أَنْتُمْ. هَا أَنَا قَدْ سَبَقْتُ وَأَخْبَرْتُكُمْ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ.

24 But in those days, after that tribulation: ‘The sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;

24 «وَأَمَّا فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ٱلضِّيقِ، فَٱلشَّمْسُ تُظْلِمُ، وَٱلْقَمَرُ لَا يُعْطِي ضَوْءَهُ،

25 the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’

25 وَنُجُومُ ٱلسَّمَاءِ تَتَسَاقَطُ، وَٱلْقُوَّاتُ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ تَتَزَعْزَعُ.

26 At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

26 وَحِينَئِذٍ يُبْصِرُونَ ٱبْنَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ آتِيًا فِي سَحَابٍ بِقُوَّةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ وَمَجْدٍ،

27 And He will send out the angels to gather His elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.

27 فَيُرْسِلُ حِينَئِذٍ مَلَائِكَتَهُ وَيَجْمَعُ مُخْتَارِيهِ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْبَعِ ٱلرِّيَاحِ، مِنْ أَقْصَاءِ ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى أَقْصَاءِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ.

28 Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near.

28 فَمِنْ شَجَرَةِ ٱلتِّينِ تَعَلَّمُوا ٱلْمَثَلَ: مَتَى صَارَ غُصْنُهَا رَخْصًا وَأَخْرَجَتْ أَوْرَاقًا، تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ ٱلصَّيْفَ قَرِيبٌ.

29 So also, when you see these things happening, know that He is near, right at the door.

29 هَكَذَا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا، مَتَى رَأَيْتُمْ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَشْيَاءَ صَائِرَةً، فَٱعْلَمُوا أَنَّهُ قَرِيبٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَبْوَابِ.

30 Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened.

30 اَلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لَا يَمْضِي هَذَا ٱلْجِيلُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ هَذَا كُلُّهُ.

31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.

31 اَلسَّمَاءُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ تَزُولَانِ، وَلَكِنَّ كَلَامِي لَا يَزُولُ.

32 No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

32 «وَأَمَّا ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمُ وَتِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةُ فَلَا يَعْلَمُ بِهِمَا أَحَدٌ، وَلَا ٱلْمَلَائِكَةُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَلَا ٱلِٱبْنُ، إِلَّا ٱلْآبُ.

33 Be on your guard and stay alert! For you do not know when the appointed time will come.

33 اُنْظُرُوا! اِسْهَرُوا وَصَلُّوا، لِأَنَّكُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ مَتَى يَكُونُ ٱلْوَقْتُ.

34 It is like a man going on a journey who left his house, put each servant in charge of his own task, and instructed the doorkeeper to keep watch.

34 كَأَنَّمَا إِنْسَانٌ مُسَافِرٌ تَرَكَ بَيْتَهُ، وَأَعْطَى عَبِيدَهُ ٱلسُّلْطَانَ، وَلِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ عَمَلَهُ، وَأَوْصَى ٱلْبَوَّابَ أَنْ يَسْهَرَ.

35 Therefore keep watch, because you do not know when the master of the house will return—whether in the evening, at midnight, when the rooster crows, or in the morning.

35 اِسْهَرُوا إِذًا، لِأَنَّكُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ مَتَى يَأْتِي رَبُّ ٱلْبَيْتِ، أَمَسَاءً، أَمْ نِصْفَ ٱللَّيْلِ، أَمْ صِيَاحَ ٱلدِّيكِ، أَمْ صَبَاحًا.

36 Otherwise, he may arrive without notice and find you sleeping.

36 لِئَلَّا يَأْتِيَ بَغْتَةً فَيَجِدَكُمْ نِيَامًا!

37 And what I say to you, I say to everyone: Keep watch!”

37 وَمَا أَقُولُهُ لَكُمْ أَقُولُهُ لِلْجَمِيعِ: ٱسْهَرُوا».
