¹وكان الفصح وايام الفطير بعد يومين. وكان رؤساء الكهنة والكتبة يطلبون كيف يمسكونه بمكر ويقتلونه.

¹Now the passover and the [feast of] unleavened bread was after two days. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might seize him by subtlety and kill him.

²ولكنهم قالوا ليس في العيد لئلا يكون شغب في الشعب

²For they said, Not in the feast, lest perhaps there be a tumult of the people.

³وفيما هو في بيت عنيا في بيت سمعان الابرص وهو متكئ جاءت امرأة معها قارورة طيب ناردين خالص كثير الثمن. فكسرت القارورة وسكبته على راسه.

³And when he was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he lay at table, there came a woman having an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly; and having broken the alabaster flask, she poured it out upon his head.

⁴وكان قوم مغتاظين في انفسهم فقالوا لماذا كان تلف الطيب هذا.

⁴And there were some indignant in themselves, and saying, Why has this waste been made of the ointment?

⁵لانه كان يمكن ان يباع هذا باكثر من ثلاث مئة دينار ويعطى للفقراء. وكانوا يؤنبونها.

⁵for this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor. And they spoke very angrily at her.

⁶اما يسوع فقال اتركوها. لماذا تزعجونها. قد عملت بي عملا حسنا.

⁶But Jesus said, Let her alone; why do ye trouble her? she has wrought a good work as to me;

⁷لان الفقراء معكم في كل حين ومتى اردتم تقدرون ان تعملوا بهم خيرا. واما انا فلست معكم في كل حين.

⁷for ye have the poor always with you, and whenever ye would ye can do them good; but me ye have not always.

⁸عملت ما عندها. قد سبقت ودهنت بالطيب جسدي للتكفين.

⁸What *she* could she has done. She has beforehand anointed my body for the burial.

⁹الحق اقول لكم حيثما يكرز بهذا الانجيل في كل العالم يخبر ايضا بما فعلته هذه تذكارا لها

⁹And verily I say unto you, Wheresoever these glad tidings may be preached in the whole world, what this [woman] has done shall be also spoken of for a memorial of her.

¹⁰ثم ان يهوذا الاسخريوطي واحدا من الاثني عشر مضى الى رؤساء الكهنة ليسلمه اليهم.

¹⁰And Judas Iscariote, one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests that he might deliver him up to them;

¹¹ولما سمعوا فرحوا ووعدوه ان يعطوه فضة. وكان يطلب كيف يسلمه في فرصة موافقة ‎

¹¹and they, when they heard it, rejoiced, and promised him to give money. And he sought how he could opportunely deliver him up.

¹²وفي اليوم الاول من الفطير حين كانوا يذبحون الفصح قال له تلاميذه اين تريد ان نمضي ونعد لتأكل الفصح.

¹²And the first day of unleavened bread, when they slew the passover, his disciples say to him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover?

¹³فارسل اثنين من تلاميذه وقال لهما اذهبا الى المدينة فيلاقيكما انسان حامل جرة ماء. اتبعاه.

¹³And he sends two of his disciples, and says to them, Go into the city, and a man shall meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him.

¹⁴وحيثما يدخل فقولا لرب البيت ان المعلّم يقول اين المنزل حيث آكل الفصح مع تلاميذي.

¹⁴And wheresoever he enters, say to the master of the house, The Teacher says, Where is my guest-chamber where I may eat the passover with my disciples?

¹⁵فهو يريكما علّية كبيرة مفروشة معدة. هناك اعدا لنا.

¹⁵and *he* will shew you a large upper room furnished ready. There make ready for us.

¹⁶فخرج تلميذاه وأتيا الى المدينة ووجدا كما قال لهما. فأعدا الفصح

¹⁶And his disciples went away and came into the city, and found as he had said to them; and they made ready the passover.

¹⁷ولما كان المساء جاء مع الاثني عشر.

¹⁷And when evening was come, he comes with the twelve.

¹⁸وفيما هم متكئون يأكلون قال يسوع الحق اقول لكم ان واحدا منكم يسلمني. الآكل معي.

¹⁸And as they lay at table and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I say to you, One of you shall deliver me up; he who is eating with me.

¹⁹فابتدأوا يحزنون ويقولون له واحدا فواحدا هل انا. وآخر هل انا.

¹⁹And they began to be grieved, and to say to him, one by one, Is it *I*? [and another, Is it *I*?]

²⁰فاجاب وقال لهم. هو واحد من الاثني عشر الذي يغمس معي في الصحفة.

²⁰But he answered and said to them, One of the twelve, he who dips with me in the dish.

²¹ان ابن الانسان ماض كما هو مكتوب عنه. ولكن ويل لذلك الرجل الذي به يسلم ابن الانسان. كان خيرا لذلك الرجل لو لم يولد

²¹The Son of man goes indeed as it is written concerning him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is delivered up; [it were] good for that man if he had not been born.

²²وفيما هم يأكلون اخذ يسوع خبزا وبارك وكسر واعطاهم وقال خذوا كلوا هذا هو جسدي.

²²And as they were eating, Jesus, having taken bread, when he had blessed, broke [it], and gave [it] to them, and said, Take [this]: this is my body.

²³ثم اخذ الكاس وشكر واعطاهم فشربوا منها كلهم.

²³And having taken [the] cup, when he had given thanks, he gave [it] to them, and they all drank out of it.

²⁴وقال لهم هذا هو دمي الذي للعهد الجديد الذي يسفك من اجل كثيرين.

²⁴And he said to them, This is my blood, that of the [new] covenant, that shed for many.

²⁵الحق اقول لكم اني لا اشرب بعد من نتاج الكرمة الى ذلك اليوم حينما اشربه جديدا في ملكوت الله.

²⁵Verily I say to you, I will no more drink at all of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

²⁶ثم سبّحوا وخرجوا الى جبل الزيتون

²⁶And having sung a hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives.

²⁷وقال لهم يسوع ان كلكم تشكون فيّ في هذه الليلة. لانه مكتوب اني اضرب الراعي فتتبدد الخراف.

²⁷And Jesus says to them, All ye shall be offended, for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered abroad.

²⁸ولكن بعد قيامي اسبقكم الى الجليل.

²⁸But after I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

²⁹فقال له بطرس وان شك الجميع فانا لا اشك.

²⁹But Peter said to him, Even if all should be offended, yet not *I*.

³⁰فقال له يسوع الحق اقول لك انك اليوم في هذه الليلة قبل ان يصيح الديك مرتين تنكرني ثلاث مرات.

³⁰And Jesus says to him, Verily I say to thee, that thou to-day, in this night, before [the] cock shall crow twice, thou shalt thrice deny me.

³¹فقال باكثر تشديد ولو اضطررت ان اموت معك لا انكرك. وهكذا قال ايضا الجميع

³¹But he said [so much] exceedingly the more, If I should have to die with thee, I will in no wise deny thee. And likewise said they all too.

³²وجاءوا الى ضيعة اسمها جثسيماني فقال لتلاميذه اجلسوا ههنا حتى اصلّي.

³²And they come to a place of which the name [is] Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, Sit here while I shall pray.

³³ثم اخذ معه بطرس ويعقوب ويوحنا وابتدأ يدهش ويكتئب.

³³And he takes with him Peter and James and John, and he began to be amazed and oppressed in spirit.

³⁴فقال لهم نفسي حزينة جدا حتى الموت. امكثوا هنا واسهروا.

³⁴And he says to them, My soul is full of grief even unto death; abide here and watch.

³⁵ثم تقدم قليلا وخرّ على الارض وكان يصلّي لكي تعبر عنه الساعة ان امكن.

³⁵And, going forward a little, he fell upon the earth; and he prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.

³⁶وقال يا ابا الآب كل شيء مستطاع لك. فاجز عني هذه الكاس. ولكن ليكن لا ما اريد انا بل ما تريد انت.

³⁶And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee: take away this cup from me; but not what *I* will, but what *thou* [wilt].

³⁷ثم جاء ووجدهم نياما فقال لبطرس يا سمعان انت نائم. أما قدرت ان تسهر ساعة واحدة.

³⁷And he comes and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter, Simon, dost thou sleep? Hast thou not been able to watch one hour?

³⁸اسهروا وصلّوا لئلا تدخلوا في تجربة. اما الروح فنشيط واما الجسد فضعيف.

³⁸Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed [is] willing, but the flesh weak.

³⁹ومضى ايضا وصلّى قائلا ذلك الكلام بعينه.

³⁹And going away, he prayed again, saying the same thing.

⁴⁰ثم رجع ووجدهم ايضا نياما اذ كانت اعينهم ثقيلة فلم يعلموا بماذا يجيبونه.

⁴⁰And returning, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy; and they knew not what they should answer him.

⁴¹ثم جاء ثالثة وقال لهم ناموا الآن واستريحوا. يكفي. قد أتت الساعة. هوذا ابن الانسان يسلم الى ايدي الخطاة.

⁴¹And he comes the third time and says to them, Sleep on now, and take your rest. It is enough; the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is delivered up into the hands of sinners.

⁴²قوموا لنذهب. هوذا الذي يسلمني قد اقترب

⁴²Arise, let us go; behold, he that delivers me up has drawn nigh.

⁴³وللوقت فيما هو يتكلم اقبل يهوذا واحد من الاثني عشر ومعه جمع كثير بسيوف وعصي من عند رؤساء الكهنة والكتبة والشيوخ.

⁴³And immediately, while he was yet speaking, Judas comes up, [being] one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd, with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

⁴⁴وكان مسلمه قد اعطاهم علامة قائلا الذي اقبّله هو هو. امسكوه وامضوا به بحرص.

⁴⁴Now he that delivered him up had given them a sign between them, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; seize him, and lead [him] away safely.

⁴⁵فجاء للوقت وتقدم اليه قائلا يا سيدي يا سيدي. وقبله.

⁴⁵And being come, straightway coming up to him, he says, Rabbi, Rabbi; and he covered him with kisses.

⁴⁶فألقوا ايديهم عليه وامسكوه.

⁴⁶And they laid their hands upon him and seized him.

⁴⁷فاستل واحد من الحاضرين السيف وضرب عبد رئيس الكهنة فقطع اذنه

⁴⁷But a certain one of those who stood by, having drawn his sword, struck the bondman of the high priest, and took off his ear.

⁴⁸فاجاب يسوع وقال لهم كانه على لص خرجتم بسيوف وعصي لتأخذوني.

⁴⁸And Jesus answering said to them, Are ye come out as against a robber, with swords and sticks to take me?

⁴⁹كل يوم كنت معكم في الهيكل اعلّم ولم تمسكوني. ولكن لكي تكمل الكتب.

⁴⁹I was daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not seize me; but [it is] that the scriptures may be fulfilled.

⁵⁰فتركه الجميع وهربوا.

⁵⁰And all left him and fled.

⁵¹وتبعه شاب لابسا ازارا على عريه فامسكه الشبان.

⁵¹And a certain young man followed him with a linen cloth cast about his naked [body]; and [the young men] seize him;

⁵²فترك الازار وهرب منهم عريانا

⁵²but he, leaving the linen cloth behind [him], fled from them naked.

⁵³فمضوا بيسوع الى رئيس الكهنة فاجتمع معه جميع رؤساء الكهنة والشيوخ والكتبة.

⁵³And they led away Jesus to the high priest. And there come together to him all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

⁵⁴وكان بطرس قد تبعه من بعيد الى داخل دار رئيس الكهنة وكان جالسا بين الخدام يستدفئ عند النار.

⁵⁴And Peter followed him at a distance, till [he was] within the court of the high priest's palace; and he was sitting with the officers and warming himself in the light [of the fire].

⁵⁵وكان رؤساء الكهنة والمجمع كله يطلبون شهادة على يسوع ليقتلوه فلم يجدوا.

⁵⁵And the chief priests and the whole sanhedrim sought testimony against Jesus to cause him to be put to death, and did not find [any].

⁵⁶لان كثيرين شهدوا عليه زورا ولم تتفق شهاداتهم.

⁵⁶For many bore false witness against him, and their testimony did not agree.

⁵⁷ثم قام قوم وشهدوا عليه زورا قائلين.

⁵⁷And certain persons rose up and bore false witness against him, saying,

⁵⁸نحن سمعناه يقول اني انقض هذا الهيكل المصنوع بالايادي وفي ثلاثة ايام ابني آخر غير مصنوع باياد.

⁵⁸*We* heard him saying, *I* will destroy this temple which is made with hands, and in the course of three days I will build another not made with hands.

⁵⁹ولا بهذا كانت شهادتهم تتفق.

⁵⁹And neither thus did their testimony agree.

⁶⁰فقام رئيس الكهنة في الوسط وسأل يسوع قائلا أما تجيب بشيء. ماذا يشهد به هؤلاء عليك.

⁶⁰And the high priest, rising up before them all, asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? What do these testify against thee?

⁶¹اما هو فكان ساكتا ولم يجب بشيء. فسأله رئيس الكهنة ايضا وقال له أانت المسيح ابن المبارك.

⁶¹But he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and says to him, *Thou* art the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

⁶²فقال يسوع انا هو. وسوف تبصرون ابن الانسان جالسا عن يمين القوة وآتيا في سحاب السماء.

⁶²And Jesus said, *I* am, and ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.

⁶³فمزّق رئيس الكهنة ثيابه وقال ما حاجتنا بعد الى شهود.

⁶³And the high priest, having rent his clothes, says, What need have we any more of witnesses?

⁶⁴قد سمعتم التجاديف. ما رايكم. فالجميع حكموا عليه انه مستوجب الموت.

⁶⁴Ye have heard the blasphemy; what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.

⁶⁵فابتدأ قوم يبصقون عليه ويغطون وجهه ويلكمونه ويقولون له تنبأ. وكان الخدام يلطمونه

⁶⁵And some began to spit upon him, and cover up his face, and buffet him, and say to him, Prophesy; and the officers struck him with the palms of their hands.

⁶⁶وبينما كان بطرس في الدار اسفل جاءت احدى جواري رئيس الكهنة.

⁶⁶And Peter being below in the palace-court, there comes one of the maids of the high priest,

⁶⁷فلما رأت بطرس يستدفئ نظرت اليه وقالت وانت كنت مع يسوع الناصري.

⁶⁷and seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, says, And *thou* wast with the Nazarene, Jesus.

⁶⁸فانكر قائلا لست ادري ولا افهم ما تقولين. وخرج خارجا الى الدهليز. فصاح الديك.

⁶⁸But he denied, saying, I know not nor understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the vestibule; and a cock crew.

⁶⁹فرأته الجارية ايضا وابتدأت تقول للحاضرين ان هذا منهم.

⁶⁹And the maid, seeing him, again began to say to those that stood by, This is [one] of them.

⁷⁰فانكر ايضا. وبعد قليل ايضا قال الحاضرون لبطرس حقا انت منهم لانك جليلي ايضا ولغتك تشبه لغتهم.

⁷⁰And he again denied. And again, after a little, those that stood by said to Peter, Truly thou art [one] of them, for also thou art a Galilean.

⁷¹فابتدأ يلعن ويحلف اني لا اعرف هذا الرجل الذي تقولون عنه.

⁷¹But he began to curse and to swear, I know not this man of whom ye speak.

⁷²وصاح الديك ثانية فتذكر بطرس القول الذي قاله له يسوع انك قبل ان يصيح الديك مرتين تنكرني ثلاث مرات. فلما تفكر به بكى

⁷²And the second time a cock crew. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus said to him, Before [the] cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice; and when he thought thereon he wept.
