تجنبوا الحسد والانقسام | |
| 1 وَأَنَا أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ لَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ أُكَلِّمَكُمْ كَرُوحِيِّينَ، بَلْ كَجَسَدِيِّينَ كَأَطْفَال فِي الْمَسِيحِ، | 1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. |
|
| 2 سَقَيْتُكُمْ لَبَنًا لاَ طَعَامًا، لأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَكُونُوا بَعْدُ تَسْتَطِيعُونَ، بَلِ الآنَ أَيْضًا لاَ تَسْتَطِيعُونَ، | 2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. |
|
| 3 لأَنَّكُمْ بَعْدُ جَسَدِيُّونَ. فَإِنَّهُ إِذْ فِيكُمْ حَسَدٌ وَخِصَامٌ وَانْشِقَاقٌ، أَلَسْتُمْ جَسَدِيِّينَ وَتَسْلُكُونَ بِحَسَبِ الْبَشَرِ؟ | 3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? |
|
| 4 لأَنَّهُ مَتَى قَالَ وَاحِدٌ: «أَنَا لِبُولُسَ» وَآخَرُ: «أَنَا لأَبُلُّوسَ» أَفَلَسْتُمْ جَسَدِيِّينَ؟ | 4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal? |
|
| 5 فَمَنْ هُوَ بُولُسُ؟ وَمَنْ هُوَ أَبُلُّوسُ؟ بَلْ خَادِمَانِ آمَنْتُمْ بِوَاسِطَتِهِمَا، وَكَمَا أَعْطَى الرَّبُّ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ: | 5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? |
|
| 6 أَنَا غَرَسْتُ وَأَبُلُّوسُ سَقَى، لكِنَّ اللهَ كَانَ يُنْمِي. | 6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. |
|
| 7 إِذًا لَيْسَ الْغَارِسُ شَيْئًا وَلاَ السَّاقِي، بَلِ اللهُ الَّذِي يُنْمِي. | 7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. |
|
| 8 وَالْغَارِسُ وَالسَّاقِي هُمَا وَاحِدٌ، وَلكِنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ سَيَأْخُذُ أُجْرَتَهُ بِحَسَبِ تَعَبِهِ. | 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. |
|
| 9 فَإِنَّنَا نَحْنُ عَامِلاَنِ مَعَ اللهِ، وَأَنْتُمْ فَلاَحَةُ اللهِ، بِنَاءُ اللهِ. | 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. |
|
| 10 حَسَبَ نِعْمَةِ اللهِ الْمُعْطَاةِ لِي كَبَنَّاءٍ حَكِيمٍ قَدْ وَضَعْتُ أَسَاسًا، وَآخَرُ يَبْنِي عَلَيْهِ. وَلكِنْ فَلْيَنْظُرْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ كَيْفَ يَبْنِي عَلَيْهِ. | 10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. |
|
| 11 فَإِنَّهُ لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَضَعَ أَسَاسًا آخَرَ غَيْرَ الَّذِي وُضِعَ، الَّذِي هُوَ يَسُوعُ الْمَسِيحُ. | 11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. |
|
| 12 وَلكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدُ يَبْنِي عَلَى هذَا الأَسَاسِ: ذَهَبًا، فِضَّةً، حِجَارَةً كَرِيمَةً، خَشَبًا، عُشْبًا، قَشًّا، | 12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; |
|
| 13 فَعَمَلُ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ سَيَصِيرُ ظَاهِرًا لأَنَّ الْيَوْمَ سَيُبَيِّنُهُ. لأَنَّهُ بِنَارٍ يُسْتَعْلَنُ، وَسَتَمْتَحِنُ النَّارُ عَمَلَ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مَا هُوَ. | 13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. |
|
| 14 إِنْ بَقِيَ عَمَلُ أَحَدٍ قَدْ بَنَاهُ عَلَيْهِ فَسَيَأْخُذُ أُجْرَةً. | 14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. |
|
| 15 إِنِ احْتَرَقَ عَمَلُ أَحَدٍ فَسَيَخْسَرُ، وَأَمَّا هُوَ فَسَيَخْلُصُ، وَلكِنْ كَمَا بِنَارٍ. | 15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. |
|
| 16 أَمَا تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّكُمْ هَيْكَلُ اللهِ، وَرُوحُ اللهِ يَسْكُنُ فِيكُمْ؟ | 16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
|
| 17 إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يُفْسِدُ هَيْكَلَ اللهِ فَسَيُفْسِدُهُ اللهُ، لأَنَّ هَيْكَلَ اللهِ مُقَدَّسٌ الَّذِي أَنْتُمْ هُوَ. | 17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. |
|
| 18 لاَ يَخْدَعَنَّ أَحَدٌ نَفْسَهُ. إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَظُنُّ أَنَّهُ حَكِيمٌ بَيْنَكُمْ فِي هذَا الدَّهْرِ، فَلْيَصِرْ جَاهِلاً لِكَيْ يَصِيرَ حَكِيمًا! | 18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. |
|
| 19 لأَنَّ حِكْمَةَ هذَا الْعَالَمِ هِيَ جَهَالَةٌ عِنْدَ اللهِ، لأَنَّهُ مَكْتُوبٌ: «الآخِذُ الْحُكَمَاءَ بِمَكْرِهِمْ». | 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. |
|
| 20 وَأَيْضًا: «الرَّبُّ يَعْلَمُ أَفْكَارَ الْحُكَمَاءِ أَنَّهَا بَاطِلَةٌ». | 20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. |
|
| 21 إِذًا لاَ يَفْتَخِرَنَّ أَحَدٌ بِالنَّاسِ! فَإِنَّ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ لَكُمْ: | 21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are your's; |
|
| 22 أَبُولُسُ، أَمْ أَبُلُّوسُ، أَمْ صَفَا، أَمِ الْعَالَمُ، أَمِ الْحَيَاةُ، أَمِ الْمَوْتُ، أَمِ الأَشْيَاءُ الْحَاضِرَةُ، أَمِ الْمُسْتَقْبَِلَةُ. كُلُّ شَيْءٍ لَكُمْ. | 22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are your's; |
|
| 23 وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَلِلْمَسِيحِ، وَالْمَسِيحُ ِللهِ. | 23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's. |
