ACTS 11	أعمال الرسل 11
1 Now the apostles and brethren who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.	1 فَسَمِعَ الرُّسُلُ وَالإِخْوَةُ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا فِي الْيَهُودِيَّةِ أَنَّ الْأُمَمَ أَيْضاً قَبِلُوا كَلِمَةَ اللهِ.
2 And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him,	2 وَلَمَّا صَعِدَ بُطْرُسُ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ خَاصَمَهُ الَّذِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْخِتَانِ
3 saying, "You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!"	3 قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّكَ دَخَلْتَ إِلَى رِجَالٍ ذَوِي غُلْفَةٍ وَأَكَلْتَ مَعَهُمْ».
4 But Peter explained it to them in order from the beginning, saying:	4 فَابْتَدَأَ بُطْرُسُ يَشْرَحُ لَهُمْ بِالتَّتَابُعِ قَائِلاً:
5 "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object descending like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came to me.	5 «أَنَا كُنْتُ فِي مَدِينَةِ يَافَا أُصَلِّي فَرَأَيْتُ فِي غَيْبَةٍ رُؤْيَا: إِنَاءً نَازِلاً مِثْلَ مُلاَءَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ مُدَلاَّةٍ بِأَرْبَعَةِ أَطْرَافٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ فَأَتَى إِلَيَّ.
6 When I observed it intently and considered, I saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.	6 فَتَفَرَّسْتُ فِيهِ مُتَأَمِّلاً فَرَأَيْتُ دَوَابَّ الأَرْضِ وَالْوُحُوشَ وَالزَّحَّافَاتِ وَطُيُورَ السَّمَاءِ.
7 And I heard a voice saying to me, 'Rise, Peter; kill and eat.'	7 وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتاً قَائِلاً لِي: قُمْ يَا بُطْرُسُ اذْبَحْ وَكُلْ.
8 But I said, 'Not so, Lord! For nothing common or unclean has at any time entered my mouth.'	8 فَقُلْتُ: كَلاَّ يَا رَبُّ لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ فَمِي قَطُّ دَنِسٌ أَوْ نَجِسٌ.
9 But the voice answered me again from heaven, 'What God has cleansed you must not call common.'	9 فَأَجَابَنِي صَوْتٌ ثَانِيَةً مِنَ السَّمَاءِ: مَا طَهَّرَهُ اللهُ لاَ تُنَجِّسْهُ أَنْتَ.
10 Now this was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.	10 وَكَانَ هَذَا عَلَى ثَلاَثِ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ انْتُشِلَ الْجَمِيعُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ أَيْضاً.
11 At that very moment, three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent to me from Caesarea.	11 وَإِذَا ثَلاَثَةُ رِجَالٍ قَدْ وَقَفُوا لِلْوَقْتِ عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ الَّذِي كُنْتُ فِيهِ مُرْسَلِينَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ قَيْصَرِيَّةَ.
12 Then the Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered the man's house.	12 فَقَالَ لِي الرُّوحُ أَنْ أَذْهَبَ مَعَهُمْ غَيْرَ مُرْتَابٍ فِي شَيْءٍ. وَذَهَبَ مَعِي أَيْضاً هَؤُلاَءِ الإِخْوَةُ السِّتَّةُ. فَدَخَلْنَا بَيْتَ الرَّجُلِ
13 And he told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house, who said to him, 'Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon whose surname is Peter,	13 فَأَخْبَرَنَا كَيْفَ رَأَى الْمَلاَكَ فِي بَيْتِهِ قَائِماً وَقَائِلاً لَهُ: أَرْسِلْ إِلَى يَافَا رِجَالاً وَاسْتَدْعِ سِمْعَانَ الْمُلَقَّبَ بُطْرُسَ
14 who will tell you words by which you and all your household will be saved.'	14 وَهُوَ يُكَلِّمُكَ كَلاَماً بِهِ تَخْلُصُ أَنْتَ وَكُلُّ بَيْتِكَ.
15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, as upon us at the beginning.	15 فَلَمَّا ابْتَدَأْتُ أَتَكَلَّمُ حَلَّ الرُّوحُ الْقُدُسُ عَلَيْهِمْ كَمَا عَلَيْنَا أَيْضاً فِي الْبَدَاءَةِ.
16 Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said, 'John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'	16 فَتَذَكَّرْتُ كَلاَمَ الرَّبِّ كَيْفَ قَالَ: إِنَّ يُوحَنَّا عَمَّدَ بِمَاءٍ وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَسَتُعَمَّدُونَ بِالرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ.
17 If therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?"	17 فَإِنْ كَانَ اللهُ قَدْ أَعْطَاهُمُ الْمَوْهِبَةَ كَمَا لَنَا أَيْضاً بِالسَّوِيَّةِ مُؤْمِنِينَ بِالرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ فَمَنْ أَنَا؟ أَقَادِرٌ أَنْ أَمْنَعَ اللهَ؟».
18 When they heard these things they became silent; and they glorified God, saying, "Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life."	18 فَلَمَّا سَمِعُوا ذَلِكَ سَكَتُوا وَكَانُوا يُمَجِّدُونَ اللهَ قَائِلِينَ: «إِذاً أَعْطَى اللهُ الْأُمَمَ أَيْضاً التَّوْبَةَ لِلْحَيَاةِ!».
19 Now those who were scattered after the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to no one but the Jews only.	19 أَمَّا الَّذِينَ تَشَتَّتُوا مِنْ جَرَّاءِ الضِّيقِ الَّذِي حَصَلَ بِسَبَبِ إِسْتِفَانُوسَ فَاجْتَازُوا إِلَى فِينِيقِيَةَ وَقُبْرُسَ وَأَنْطَاكِيَةَ وَهُمْ لاَ يُكَلِّمُونَ أَحَداً بِالْكَلِمَةِ إِلاَّ الْيَهُودَ فَقَطْ.
20 But some of them were men from Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the Lord Jesus.	20 وَلَكِنْ كَانَ مِنْهُمْ قَوْمٌ وَهُمْ رِجَالٌ قُبْرُسِيُّونَ وَقَيْرَوَانِيُّونَ الَّذِينَ لَمَّا دَخَلُوا أَنْطَاكِيَةَ كَانُوا يُخَاطِبُونَ الْيُونَانِيِّينَ مُبَشِّرِينَ بِالرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ.
21 And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.	21 وَكَانَتْ يَدُ الرَّبِّ مَعَهُمْ فَآمَنَ عَدَدٌ كَثِيرٌ وَرَجَعُوا إِلَى الرَّبِّ.
22 Then news of these things came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch.	22 فَسُمِعَ الْخَبَرُ عَنْهُمْ فِي آذَانِ الْكَنِيسَةِ الَّتِي فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ فَأَرْسَلُوا بَرْنَابَا لِكَيْ يَجْتَازَ إِلَى أَنْطَاكِيَةَ.
23 When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad, and encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord.	23 الَّذِي لَمَّا أَتَى وَرَأَى نِعْمَةَ اللهِ فَرِحَ وَوَعَظَ الْجَمِيعَ أَنْ يَثْبُتُوا فِي الرَّبِّ بِعَزْمِ الْقَلْبِ
24 For he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord.	24 لأَنَّهُ كَانَ رَجُلاً صَالِحاً وَمُمْتَلِئاً مِنَ الرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ وَالإِيمَانِ. فَانْضَمَّ إِلَى الرَّبِّ جَمْعٌ غَفِيرٌ.
25 Then Barnabas departed for Tarsus to seek Saul.	25 ثُمَّ خَرَجَ بَرْنَابَا إِلَى طَرْسُوسَ لِيَطْلُبَ شَاوُلَ. وَلَمَّا وَجَدَهُ جَاءَ بِهِ إِلَى أَنْطَاكِيَةَ.
26 And when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.	26 فَحَدَثَ أَنَّهُمَا اجْتَمَعَا فِي الْكَنِيسَةِ سَنَةً كَامِلَةً وَعَلَّمَا جَمْعاً غَفِيراً. وَدُعِيَ التَّلاَمِيذُ «مَسِيحِيِّينَ» فِي أَنْطَاكِيَةَ أَوَّلاً.
27 And in these days prophets came from Jerusalem to Antioch.	27 وَفِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ انْحَدَرَ أَنْبِيَاءُ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى أَنْطَاكِيَةَ.
28 Then one of them, named Agabus, stood up and showed by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine throughout all the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius Caesar.	28 وَقَامَ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمُ اسْمُهُ أَغَابُوسُ وَأَشَارَ بِالرُّوحِ أَنَّ جُوعاً عَظِيماً كَانَ عَتِيداً أَنْ يَصِيرَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ الْمَسْكُونَةِ - الَّذِي صَارَ أَيْضاً فِي أَيَّامِ كُلُودِيُوسَ قَيْصَرَ.
29 Then the disciples, each according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brethren dwelling in Judea.	29 فَحَتَمَ التَّلاَمِيذُ حَسْبَمَا تَيَسَّرَ لِكُلٍّ مِنْهُمْ أَنْ يُرْسِلَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ شَيْئاً خِدْمَةً إِلَى الإِخْوَةِ السَّاكِنِينَ فِي الْيَهُودِيَّةِ.
30 This they also did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.	30 فَفَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ مُرْسِلِينَ إِلَى الْمَشَايِخِ بِيَدِ بَرْنَابَا وَشَاوُلَ.
