Matthew 19

1 When Jesus had finished saying these things, He left Galilee and went into the region of Judea beyond the Jordan.

1 وَلَمَّا أَكْمَلَ يَسُوعُ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱنْتَقَلَ مِنَ ٱلْجَلِيلِ وَجَاءَ إِلَى تُخُومِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ مِنْ عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ.

2 Large crowds followed Him, and He healed them there.

2 وَتَبِعَتْهُ جُمُوعٌ كَثِيرَةٌ فَشَفَاهُمْ هُنَاكَ.

3 Then some Pharisees came and tested Him by asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?”

3 وَجَاءَ إِلَيْهِ ٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ لِيُجَرِّبُوهُ قَائِلِينَ لَهُ: «هَلْ يَحِلُّ لِلرَّجُلِ أَنْ يُطَلِّقَ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ لِكُلِّ سَبَبٍ؟».

4 Jesus answered, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’

4 فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَمَا قَرَأْتُمْ أَنَّ ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ مِنَ ٱلْبَدْءِ خَلَقَهُمَا ذَكَرًا وَأُنْثَى؟

5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’?

5 وَقَالَ: مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا يَتْرُكُ ٱلرَّجُلُ أَبَاهُ وَأُمَّهُ وَيَلْتَصِقُ بِٱمْرَأَتِهِ، وَيَكُونُ ٱلِٱثْنَانِ جَسَدًا وَاحِدًا.

6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”

6 إِذًا لَيْسَا بَعْدُ ٱثْنَيْنِ بَلْ جَسَدٌ وَاحِدٌ. فَٱلَّذِي جَمَعَهُ ٱللهُ لَا يُفَرِّقُهُ إِنْسَانٌ».

7 “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses order a man to give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”

7 قَالُوا لَهُ: «فَلِمَاذَا أَوْصَى مُوسَى أَنْ يُعْطَى كِتَابُ طَلَاقٍ فَتُطَلَّقُ؟».

8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of your hardness of heart. But it was not this way from the beginning.

8 قَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنَّ مُوسَى مِنْ أَجْلِ قَسَاوَةِ قُلُوبِكُمْ أَذِنَ لَكُمْ أَنْ تُطَلِّقُوا نِسَاءَكُمْ. وَلَكِنْ مِنَ ٱلْبَدْءِ لَمْ يَكُنْ هَكَذَا.

9 Now I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”

9 وَأَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ مَنْ طَلَّقَ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ إِلَّا بِسَبَبِ ٱلزِّنَا وَتَزَوَّجَ بِأُخْرَى يَزْنِي، وَٱلَّذِي يَتَزَوَّجُ بِمُطَلَّقَةٍ يَزْنِي».

10 His disciples said to Him, “If this is the case between a man and his wife, it is better not to marry.”

10 قَالَ لَهُ تَلَامِيذُهُ: «إِنْ كَانَ هَكَذَا أَمْرُ ٱلرَّجُلِ مَعَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ، فَلَا يُوافِقُ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَ!».

11 “Not everyone can accept this word,” He replied, “but only those to whom it has been given.

11 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لَيْسَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ يَقْبَلُونَ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ أُعْطِيَ لَهُم،

12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way; others were made that way by men; and still others live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”

12 لِأَنَّهُ يُوجَدُ خِصْيَانٌ وُلِدُوا هَكَذَا مِنْ بُطُونِ أُمَّهَاتِهِمْ، وَيُوجَدُ خِصْيَانٌ خَصَاهُمُ ٱلنَّاسُ، وَيُوجَدُ خِصْيَانٌ خَصَوْا أَنْفُسَهُمْ لِأَجْلِ مَلَكُوتِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ. مَنِ ٱسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَقْبَلَ فَلْيَقْبَلْ».

13 Then little children were brought to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them and pray for them. And the disciples rebuked those who brought them.

13 حِينَئِذٍ قُدِّمَ إِلَيْهِ أَوْلَادٌ لِكَيْ يَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيُصَلِّيَ، فَٱنْتَهَرَهُمُ ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ.

14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

14 أَمَّا يَسُوعُ فَقَالَ: «دَعُوا ٱلْأَوْلَادَ يَأْتُونَ إِلَيَّ وَلَا تَمْنَعُوهُمْ لِأَنَّ لِمِثْلِ هَؤُلَاءِ مَلَكُوتَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ».

15 And after He had placed His hands on them, He went on from there.

15 فَوَضَعَ يَدَيْهِ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَمَضَى مِنْ هُنَاكَ.

16 Just then a man came up to Jesus and inquired, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to obtain eternal life?”

16 وَإِذَا وَاحِدٌ تَقَدَّمَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُعَلِّمُ ٱلصَّالِحُ، أَيَّ صَلَاحٍ أَعْمَلُ لِتَكُونَ لِيَ ٱلْحَيَاةُ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةُ؟».

17 “Why do you ask Me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”

17 فَقَالَ لَهُ: «لِمَاذَا تَدْعُونِي صَالِحًا؟ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ صَالِحًا إِلَّا وَاحِدٌ وَهُوَ ٱللهُ. وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ ٱلْحَيَاةَ فَٱحْفَظِ ٱلْوَصَايَا».

18 “Which ones?” the man asked. Jesus answered, “‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness,

18 قَالَ لَهُ: «أَيَّةَ ٱلْوَصَايَا؟». فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ: «لَا تَقْتُلْ. لَا تَزْنِ. لَا تَسْرِقْ. لَا تَشْهَدْ بِٱلزُّورِ.

19 honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor as yourself.’”

19 أَكْرِمْ أَبَاكَ وَأُمَّكَ، وَأَحِبَّ قَرِيبَكَ كَنَفْسِكَ».

20 “All these I have kept,” said the young man. “What do I still lack?”

20 قَالَ لَهُ ٱلشَّابُّ: «هَذِهِ كُلُّهَا حَفِظْتُهَا مُنْذُ حَدَاثَتِي. فَمَاذَا يُعْوِزُنِي بَعْدُ؟».

21 Jesus told him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”

21 قَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «إِنْ أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَكُونَ كَامِلًا فَٱذْهَبْ وَبِعْ أَمْلَاكَكَ وَأَعْطِ ٱلْفُقَرَاءَ، فَيَكُونَ لَكَ كَنْزٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَتَعَالَ ٱتْبَعْنِي».

22 When the young man heard this, he went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.

22 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلشَّابُّ ٱلْكَلِمَةَ مَضَى حَزِينًا، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ ذَا أَمْوَالٍ كَثِيرَةٍ.

23 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

23 فَقَالَ يَسُوعُ لِتَلَامِيذِهِ: «ٱلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُ يَعْسُرُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ غَنِيٌّ إِلَى مَلَكُوتِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ!

24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”

24 وَأَقُولُ لَكُمْ أَيْضًا: إِنَّ مُرُورَ جَمَلٍ مِنْ ثَقْبِ إِبْرَةٍ أَيْسَرُ مِنْ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ غَنِيٌّ إِلَى مَلَكُوتِ ٱللهِ!».

25 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

25 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ تَلَامِيذُهُ بُهِتُوا جِدًّا قَائِلِينَ: «إِذًا مَنْ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَخْلُصَ؟».

26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

26 فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِمْ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَذَا عِنْدَ ٱلنَّاسِ غَيْرُ مُسْتَطَاعٍ، وَلَكِنْ عِنْدَ ٱللهِ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مُسْتَطَاعٌ».

27 “Look,” Peter replied, “we have left everything to follow You. What then will there be for us?”

27 فَأَجَابَ بُطْرُسُ حِينَئِذٍ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «هَا نَحْنُ قَدْ تَرَكْنَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ وَتَبِعْنَاكَ. فَمَاذَا يَكُونُ لَنَا؟».

28 Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, in the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

28 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «ٱلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّكُمْ أَنْتُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ تَبِعْتُمُونِي، فِي ٱلتَّجْدِيدِ، مَتَى جَلَسَ ٱبْنُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ مَجْدِهِ، تَجْلِسُونَ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا عَلَى ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ كُرْسِيًّا تَدِينُونَ أَسْبَاطَ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلِٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ.

29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for the sake of My name will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life.

29 وَكُلُّ مَنْ تَرَكَ بُيُوتًا أَوْ إِخْوَةً أَوْ أَخَوَاتٍ أَوْ أَبًا أَوْ أُمًّا أَوِ ٱمْرَأَةً أَوْ أَوْلَادًا أَوْ حُقُولًا مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱسْمِي، يَأْخُذُ مِئَةَ ضِعْفٍ وَيَرِثُ ٱلْحَيَاةَ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةَ.

30 But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.

30 وَلَكِنْ كَثِيرُونَ أَوَّلُونَ يَكُونُونَ آخِرِينَ، وَآخِرُونَ أَوَّلِينَ.
