¹في تلك الايام اذ كان الجمع كثيرا جدا ولم يكن لهم ما يأكلون دعا يسوع تلاميذه وقال لهم

¹In those days, there being again a great crowd, and they having nothing that they could eat, having called his disciples to [him], he says to them,

²اني اشفق على الجمع لان الآن لهم ثلاثة ايام يمكثون معي وليس لهم ما يأكلون.

²I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me already three days and they have not anything they can eat,

³وان صرفتهم الى بيوتهم صائمين يخورون في الطريق. لان قوما منهم جاءوا من بعيد.

³and if I should dismiss them to their home fasting, they will faint on the way; for some of them are come from far.

⁴فاجابه تلاميذه. من اين يستطيع احد ان يشبع هؤلاء خبزا هنا في البرية.

⁴And his disciples answered him, Whence shall one be able to satisfy these with bread here in a desert place?

⁵فسألهم كم عندكم من الخبز. فقالوا سبعة.

⁵And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

⁶فامر الجمع ان يتكئوا على الارض. واخذ السبع خبزات وشكر وكسر واعطى تلاميذه ليقدموا فقدموا الى الجمع.

⁶And he commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. And having taken the seven loaves, he gave thanks, and broke [them] and gave [them] to his disciples, that they might set [them] before [them]; and they set [them] before the crowd.

⁷وكان معهم قليل من صغار السمك. فبارك وقال ان يقدموا هذه ايضا.

⁷And they had a few small fishes, and having blessed them, he desired these also to be set before [them].

⁸فاكلوا وشبعوا. ثم رفعوا فضلات الكسر سبعة سلال.

⁸And they ate and were satisfied. And they took up of fragments that remained seven baskets.

⁹وكان الآكلون نحو اربعة آلاف. ثم صرفهم.

⁹And they [that had eaten] were about four thousand; and he sent them away.

¹⁰وللوقت دخل السفينة مع تلاميذه وجاء الى نواحي دلمانوثة

¹⁰And immediately going on board ship with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha.

¹¹فخرج الفريسيون وابتدأوا يحاورونه طالبين منه آية من السماء لكي يجربوه.

¹¹And the Pharisees went out and began to dispute against him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, tempting him.

¹²فتنهد بروحه وقال لماذا يطلب هذا الجيل آية. الحق اقول لكم لن يعطى هذا الجيل آية

¹²And groaning in his spirit, he says, Why does this generation seek a sign? Verily I say unto you, A sign shall in no wise be given to this generation.

¹³ثم تركهم ودخل ايضا السفينة ومضى الى العبر.

¹³And he left them, and going again on board ship, went away to the other side.

¹⁴ونسوا ان يأخذوا خبزا ولم يكن معهم في السفينة الا رغيف واحد.

¹⁴And they forgot to take bread, and save one loaf, they had not [any] with them in the ship.

¹⁵واوصاهم قائلا انظروا وتحرزوا من خمير الفريسيين وخمير هيرودس.

¹⁵And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and [of] the leaven of Herod.

¹⁶ففكروا قائلين بعضهم لبعض ليس عندنا خبز.

¹⁶And they reasoned with one another, [saying], It is because we have no bread.

¹⁷فعلم يسوع وقال لهم لماذا تفكرون ان ليس عندكم خبز. ألا تشعرون بعد ولا تفهمون. أحتى الآن قلوبكم غليظة.

¹⁷And Jesus knowing [it], says to them, Why reason ye because ye have no bread? Do ye not yet perceive nor understand? Have ye your heart [yet] hardened?

¹⁸ألكم اعين ولا تبصرون ولكم آذان ولا تسمعون ولا تذكرون.

¹⁸Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?

¹⁹حين كسّرت الارغفة الخمسة للخمسة الآلاف كم قفة مملوءة كسرا رفعتم. قالوا له اثنتي عشرة.

¹⁹When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many hand-baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say to him, Twelve.

²⁰وحين السبعة للاربعة الآلاف كم سل كسر مملوّا رفعتم. قالوا سبعة.

²⁰And when the seven for the four thousand, the filling of how many baskets of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.

²¹فقال لهم كيف لا تفهمون

²¹And he said to them, How do ye not yet understand?

²²وجاء الى بيت صيدا. فقدموا اليه اعمى وطلبوا اليه ان يلمسه.

²²And he comes to Bethsaida; and they bring him a blind man, and beseech him that he might touch him.

²³فاخذ بيد الاعمى واخرجه الى خارج القرية وتفل في عينيه ووضع يديه عليه وسأله هل ابصر شيئا.

²³And taking hold of the hand of the blind man he led him forth out of the village, and having spit upon his eyes, he laid his hands upon him, and asked him if he beheld anything.

²⁴فتطلع وقال ابصر الناس كاشجار يمشون.

²⁴And having looked up, he said, I behold men, for I see [them], as trees, walking.

²⁵ثم وضع يديه ايضا على عينيه وجعله يتطلع فعاد صحيحا وابصر كل انسان جليّا.

²⁵Then he laid his hands again upon his eyes, and he saw distinctly, and was restored and saw all things clearly.

²⁶فارسله الى بيته قائلا لا تدخل القرية ولا تقل لاحد في القرية

²⁶And he sent him to his house, saying, Neither enter into the village, nor tell [it] to any one in the village.

²⁷ثم خرج يسوع وتلاميذه الى قرى قيصرية فيلبس. وفي الطريق سأل تلاميذه قائلا لهم من يقول الناس اني انا.

²⁷And Jesus went forth and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea-Philippi. And by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that I am?

²⁸فاجابوا. يوحنا المعمدان. وآخرون ايليا. وآخرون واحد من الانبياء.

²⁸And they answered him, saying, John the baptist; and others, Elias; but others, One of the prophets.

²⁹فقال لهم وانتم من تقولون اني انا. فاجاب بطرس وقال له انت المسيح.

²⁹And he asked them, But *ye*, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering says to him, *Thou* art the Christ.

³⁰فانتهرهم كي لا يقولوا لاحد عنه

³⁰And he charged them straitly, in order that they should tell no man about him.

³¹وابتدأ يعلّمهم ان ابن الانسان ينبغي ان يتألم كثيرا ويرفض من الشيوخ ورؤساء الكهنة والكتبة ويقتل. وبعد ثلاثة ايام يقوم.

³¹And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and of the chief priests and of the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise [again].

³²وقال القول علانية. فاخذه بطرس اليه وابتدأ ينتهره.

³²And he spoke the thing openly. And Peter, taking him to [him], began to rebuke him.

³³فالتفت وابصر تلاميذه فانتهر بطرس قائلا اذهب عني يا شيطان. لانك لا تهتم بما لله لكن بما للناس

³³But he, turning round and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, saying, Get away behind me, Satan, for thy mind is not on the things that are of God, but on the things that are of men.

³⁴ودعا الجمع مع تلاميذه وقال لهم من اراد ان يأتي ورائي فلينكر نفسه ويحمل صليبه ويتبعني.

³⁴And having called the crowd with his disciples, he said to them, Whoever desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.

³⁵فان من اراد ان يخلّص نفسه يهلكها. ومن يهلك نفسه من اجلي ومن اجل الانجيل فهو يخلّصها.

³⁵For whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it.

³⁶لانه ماذا ينتفع الانسان لو ربح العالم كله وخسر نفسه.

³⁶For what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his soul?

³⁷او ماذا يعطي الانسان فداء عن نفسه.

³⁷for what should a man give in exchange for his soul?

³⁸لان من استحى بي وبكلامي في هذا الجيل الفاسق الخاطئ فان ابن الانسان يستحي به متى جاء بمجد ابيه مع الملائكة القديسين

³⁸For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him shall the Son of man also be ashamed when he shall come in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
