¹ولما اكمل اقواله كلها في مسامع الشعب دخل كفرناحوم.

¹And when he had completed all his words in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

²وكان عبد لقائد مئة مريضا مشرفا على الموت وكان عزيزا عنده.

²And a certain centurion's bondman who was dear to him was ill and about to die;

³فلما سمع عن يسوع ارسل اليه شيوخ اليهود يسأله ان يأتي ويشفي عبده.

³and having heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, begging him that he might come and save his bondman.

⁴فلما جاءوا الى يسوع طلبوا اليه باجتهاد قائلين انه مستحق ان يفعل له هذا.

⁴But they, being come to Jesus, besought him diligently, saying, He is worthy to whom thou shouldest grant this,

⁵لانه يحب امتنا وهو بنى لنا المجمع.

⁵for he loves our nation, and himself has built the synagogue for us.

⁶فذهب يسوع معهم. واذ كان غير بعيد عن البيت ارسل اليه قائد المئة اصدقاء يقول له يا سيد لا تتعب. لاني لست مستحقا ان تدخل تحت سقفي.

⁶And Jesus went with them. But already, when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent to him friends, saying to him, Lord, do not trouble thyself, for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof.

⁷لذلك لم احسب نفسي اهلا ان آتي اليك. لكن قل كلمة فيبرأ غلامي.

⁷Wherefore neither did I count myself worthy to come to thee. But say by a word and my servant shall be healed.

⁸لاني انا ايضا انسان مرتّب تحت سلطان. لي جند تحت يدي. واقول لهذا اذهب فيذهب ولآخر ائت فيأتي ولعبدي افعل هذا فيفعل.

⁸For *I* also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my bondman, Do this, and he does [it].

⁹ولما سمع يسوع هذا تعجب منه والتفت الى الجمع الذي يتبعه وقال اقول لكم لم اجد ولا في اسرائيل ايمانا بمقدار هذا.

⁹And Jesus hearing this wondered at him, and turning to the crowd following him said, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found so great faith.

¹⁰ورجع المرسلون الى البيت فوجدوا العبد المريض قد صحّ

¹⁰And they who had been sent returning to the house found the bondman, who was ill, in good health.

¹¹وفي اليوم التالي ذهب الى مدينة تدعى نايين وذهب معه كثيرون من تلاميذه وجمع كثير.

¹¹And it came to pass afterwards he went into a city called Nain, and many of his disciples and a great crowd went with him.

¹²فلما اقترب الى باب المدينة اذا ميت محمول ابن وحيد لامّه وهي ارملة ومعها جمع كثير من المدينة.

¹²And as he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a very considerable crowd of the city [was] with her.

¹³فلما رآها الرب تحنن عليها وقال لها لا تبكي.

¹³And the Lord, seeing her, was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not;

¹⁴ثم تقدم ولمس النعش فوقف الحاملون. فقال ايها الشاب لك اقول قم.

¹⁴and coming up he touched the bier, and the bearers stopped. And he said, Youth, I say to thee, Wake up.

¹⁵فجلس الميت وابتدأ يتكلم فدفعه الى امه.

¹⁵And the dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.

¹⁶فاخذ الجميع خوف ومجدوا الله قائلين قد قام فينا نبي عظيم وافتقد الله شعبه.

¹⁶And fear seized on all, and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet has been raised up amongst us; and God has visited his people.

¹⁷وخرج هذا الخبر عنه في كل اليهودية وفي جميع الكورة المحيطة

¹⁷And this report went out in all Judaea concerning him, and in all the surrounding country.

¹⁸فاخبر يوحنا تلاميذه بهذا كله.

¹⁸And the disciples of John brought him word concerning all these things:

¹⁹فدعا يوحنا اثنين من تلاميذه وارسل الى يسوع قائلا انت هو الآتي ام ننتظر آخر.

¹⁹and John, having called two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, Art *thou* he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?

²⁰فلما جاء اليه الرجلان قالا يوحنا المعمدان قد ارسلنا اليك قائلا انت هو الآتي ام ننتظر آخر.

²⁰But the men having come to him said, John the baptist has sent us to thee, saying, Art *thou* he that is coming, or are we to wait for another?

²¹وفي تلك الساعة شفى كثيرين من امراض وادواء وارواح شريرة ووهب البصر لعميان كثيرين.

²¹In that hour he healed many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight.

²²فاجاب يسوع وقال لهما اذهبا واخبرا يوحنا بما رأيتما وسمعتما. ان العمي يبصرون والعرج يمشون والبرص يطهرون والصم يسمعون والموتى يقومون والمساكين يبشرون.

²²And Jesus answering said to them, Go, bring back word to John of what ye have seen and heard: that blind see, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf hear, dead are raised, poor are evangelized;

²³وطوبى لمن لا يعثر فيّ

²³and blessed is whosoever shall not be offended in me.

²⁴فلما مضى رسولا يوحنا ابتدأ يقول للجموع عن يوحنا. ماذا خرجتم الى البرية لتنظروا. أقصبة تحركها الريح.

²⁴And the messengers of John having departed, he began to speak to the crowds concerning John: What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken by the wind?

²⁵بل ماذا خرجتم لتنظروا أانسانا لابسا ثيابا ناعمة. هوذا الذين في اللباس الفاخر والتنعم هم في قصور الملوك.

²⁵But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in delicate garments? Behold, those who are in splendid clothing and live luxuriously are in the courts of kings.

²⁶بل ماذا خرجتم لتنظروا. أنبيا. نعم اقول لكم وافضل من نبي.

²⁶But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and [what is] more excellent than a prophet.

²⁷هذا هو الذي كتب عنه ها انا ارسل امام وجهك ملاكي الذي يهيئ طريقك قدامك.

²⁷This is he concerning whom it is written, Behold, *I* send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;

²⁸لاني اقول لكم انه بين المولودين من النساء ليس نبي اعظم من يوحنا المعمدان. ولكن الاصغر في ملكوت الله اعظم منه.

²⁸for I say unto you, Among them that are born of women a greater [prophet] is no one than John [the baptist]; but he who is a little one in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

²⁹وجميع الشعب اذ سمعوا والعشارين برروا الله معتمدين بمعمودية يوحنا.

²⁹(And all the people who heard [it], and the tax-gatherers, justified God, having been baptised with the baptism of John;

³⁰واما الفريسيون والناموسيون فرفضوا مشورة الله من جهة انفسهم غير معتمدين منه

³⁰but the Pharisees and the lawyers rendered null as to themselves the counsel of God, not having been baptised by him.)

³¹ثم قال الرب فبمن اشبه اناس هذا الجيل وماذا يشبهون.

³¹To whom therefore shall I liken the men of this generation, and to whom are they like?

³²يشبهون اولادا جالسين في السوق ينادون بعضهم بعضا ويقولون زمرنا لكم فلم ترقصوا. نحنا لكم فلم تبكوا.

³²They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.

³³لانه جاء يوحنا المعمدان لا يأكل خبزا ولا يشرب خمرا فتقولون به شيطان.

³³For John the baptist has come neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and ye say, He has a demon.

³⁴جاء ابن الانسان يأكل ويشرب فتقولون هوذا انسان اكول وشريب خمر. محب للعشارين والخطاة.

³⁴The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and ye say, Behold an eater and wine-drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners;

³⁵والحكمة تبررت من جميع بنيها

³⁵and wisdom has been justified of all her children.

³⁶وسأله واحد من الفريسيين ان يأكل معه فدخل بيت الفريسي واتكأ.

³⁶But one of the Pharisees begged him that he would eat with him. And entering into the house of the Pharisee he took his place at table;

³⁷واذا امرأة في المدينة كانت خاطئة اذ علمت انه متكئ في بيت الفريسي جاءت بقارورة طيب

³⁷and behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, and knew that he was sitting at meat in the house of the Pharisee, having taken an alabaster box of myrrh,

³⁸ووقفت عند قدميه من ورائه باكية وابتدأت تبل قدميه بالدموع وكانت تمسحهما بشعر راسها وتقبل قدميه وتدهنهما بالطيب.

³⁸and standing at his feet behind [him] weeping, began to wash his feet with tears; and she wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed [them] with the myrrh.

³⁹فلما رأى الفريسي الذي دعاه ذلك تكلم في نفسه قائلا لو كان هذا نبيا لعلم من هذه المرأة التي تلمسه وما هي. انها خاطئة.

³⁹And the Pharisee who had invited him, seeing it, spoke with himself saying, This [person] if he were a prophet would have known who and what the woman is who touches him, for she is a sinner.

⁴⁰فاجاب يسوع وقال له يا سمعان عندي شيء اقوله لك. فقال قل يا معلّم.

⁴⁰And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he says, Teacher, say [it].

⁴¹كان لمداين مديونان. على الواحد خمس مئة دينار وعلى الآخر خمسون.

⁴¹There were two debtors of a certain creditor: one owed five hundred denarii and the other fifty;

⁴²واذ لم يكن لهما ما يوفيان سامحهما جميعا. فقل. ايهما يكون اكثر حبا له.

⁴²but as they had nothing to pay, he forgave both of them [their debt]: [say,] which of them therefore will love him most?

⁴³فاجاب سمعان وقال اظن الذي سامحه بالاكثر. فقال له بالصواب حكمت.

⁴³And Simon answering said, I suppose he to whom he forgave the most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.

⁴⁴ثم التفت الى المرأة وقال لسمعان أتنظر هذه المرأة. اني دخلت بيتك وماء لاجل رجلي لم تعط. واما هي فقد غسلت رجليّ بالدموع ومسحتهما بشعر راسها.

⁴⁴And turning to the woman he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; thou gavest me not water on my feet, but *she* has washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.

⁴⁵قبلة لم تقبّلني. واما هي فمنذ دخلت لم تكف عن تقبيل رجليّ.

⁴⁵Thou gavest me not a kiss, but *she* from the time I came in has not ceased kissing my feet.

⁴⁶بزيت لم تدهن راسي. واما هي فقد دهنت بالطيب رجليّ.

⁴⁶My head with oil thou didst not anoint, but *she* has anointed my feet with myrrh.

⁴⁷من اجل ذلك اقول لك قد غفرت خطاياها الكثيرة لانها احبت كثيرا. والذي يغفر له قليل يحب قليلا.

⁴⁷For which cause I say to thee, Her many sins are forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loves little.

⁴⁸ثم قال لها مغفورة لك خطاياك.

⁴⁸And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.

⁴⁹فابتدأ المتكئون معه يقولون في انفسهم من هذا الذي يغفر خطايا ايضا.

⁴⁹And they that were with [them] at table began to say within themselves, Who is this who forgives also sins?

⁵⁰فقال للمرأة ايمانك قد خلّصك. اذهبي بسلام

⁵⁰And he said to the woman, Thy faith has saved thee; go in peace.
