¹وبعد ذلك عيّن الرب سبعين آخرين ايضا وارسلهم اثنين اثنين امام وجهه الى كل مدينة وموضع حيث كان هو مزمعا ان يأتي.

¹Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others, and sent them two by two ahead of him literally, “before his face” into every city and place, where he was about to come.

²فقال لهم ان الحصاد كثير ولكن الفعلة قليلون. فاطلبوا من رب الحصاد ان يرسل فعلة الى حصاده.

²Then he said to them, “The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send out laborers into his harvest.

³اذهبوا. ها انا ارسلكم مثل حملان بين ذئاب.

³ Go your ways. Behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.

⁴لا تحملوا كيسا ولا مزودا ولا احذية ولا تسلموا على احد في الطريق.

⁴ Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor sandals. Greet no one on the way.

⁵واي بيت دخلتموه فقولوا اولا سلام لهذا البيت.

⁵ Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’

⁶فان كان هناك ابن السلام يحل سلامكم عليه وإلا فيرجع اليكم.

⁶ If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.

⁷واقيموا في ذلك البيت آكلين وشاربين مما عندهم. لان الفاعل مستحق اجرته. لا تنتقلوا من بيت الى بيت.

⁷ Remain in that same house, eating and drinking the things they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Don’t go from house to house.

⁸واية مدينة دخلتموها وقبلوكم فكلوا مما يقدّم لكم.

⁸ Into whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.

⁹واشفوا المرضى الذين فيها وقولوا لهم قد اقترب منكم ملكوت الله.

⁹ Heal the sick who are therein, and tell them, ‘The Kingdom of God has come near to you.’

¹⁰واية مدينة دخلتموها ولم يقبلوكم فاخرجوا الى شوارعها وقولوا

¹⁰ But into whatever city you enter, and they don’t receive you, go out into its streets and say,

¹¹حتى الغبار الذي لصق بنا من مدينتكم ننفضه لكم. ولكن اعلموا هذا انه قد اقترب منكم ملكوت الله.

¹¹ ‘Even the dust from your city that clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the Kingdom of God has come near to you.’

¹²واقول لكم انه يكون لسدوم في ذلك اليوم حالة اكثر احتمالا مما لتلك المدينة

¹² I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.

¹³ويل لك يا كورزين. ويل لك يا بيت صيدا. لانه لو صنعت في صور وصيدا القوات المصنوعة فيكما لتابتا قديما جالستين في المسوح والرماد.

¹³ “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

¹⁴ولكن صور وصيدا يكون لهما في الدين حالة اكثر احتمالا مما لكما.

¹⁴ But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.

¹⁵وانت يا كفرناحوم المرتفعة الى السماء ستهبطين الى الهاوية.

¹⁵ You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades. Hades is the lower realm of the dead, or Hell.

¹⁶الذي يسمع منكم يسمع مني. والذي يرذلكم يرذلني. والذي يرذلني يرذل الذي ارسلني

¹⁶ Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”

¹⁷فرجع السبعون بفرح قائلين يا رب حتى الشياطين تخضع لنا باسمك.

¹⁷The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”

¹⁸فقال لهم رأيت الشيطان ساقطا مثل البرق من السماء.

¹⁸He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.

¹⁹ها انا اعطيكم سلطانا لتدوسوا الحيّات والعقارب وكل قوة العدو ولا يضركم شيء.

¹⁹ Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.

²⁰ولكن لا تفرحوا بهذا ان الارواح تخضع لكم بل افرحوا بالحري ان اسماءكم كتبت في السموات

²⁰ Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

²¹وفي تلك الساعة تهلل يسوع بالروح وقال احمدك ايها الآب رب السماء والارض لانك اخفيت هذه عن الحكماء والفهماء واعلنتها للاطفال. نعم ايها الآب لان هكذا صارت المسرة امامك.

²¹In that same hour Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”

²²والتفت الى تلاميذه وقال كل شيء قد دفع اليّ من ابي. وليس احد يعرف من هو الابن الا الآب ولا من هو الآب الا الابن ومن اراد الابن ان يعلن له.

²²Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”

²³والتفت الى تلاميذه على انفراد وقال طوبى للعيون التي تنظر ما تنظرونه.

²³Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,

²⁴لاني اقول لكم ان انبياء كثيرين وملوكا ارادوا ان ينظروا ما انتم تنظرون ولم ينظروا وان يسمعوا ما انتم تسمعون ولم يسمعوا

²⁴ for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.”

²⁵واذا ناموسي قام يجربه قائلا يا معلّم ماذا اعمل لارث الحياة الابدية.

²⁵Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

²⁶فقال له ما هو مكتوب في الناموس. كيف تقرأ.

²⁶He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”

²⁷فاجاب وقال تحب الرب الهك من كل قلبك ومن كل نفسك ومن كل قدرتك ومن كل فكرك وقريبك مثل نفسك.

²⁷He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; Deuteronomy 6:5 and your neighbor as yourself.” Leviticus 19:18

²⁸فقال له بالصواب اجبت. افعل هذا فتحيا.

²⁸He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”

²⁹واما هو فاذ اراد ان يبرر نفسه قال ليسوع ومن هو قريبي.

²⁹But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”

³⁰فاجاب يسوع وقال. انسان كان نازلا من اورشليم الى اريحا فوقع بين لصوص فعروه وجرحوه ومضوا وتركوه بين حيّ وميت.

³⁰Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

³¹فعرض ان كاهنا نزل في تلك الطريق فرآه وجاز مقابله.

³¹ By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

³²وكذلك لاوي ايضا اذ صار عند المكان جاء ونظر وجاز مقابله.

³² In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.

³³ولكن سامريا مسافرا جاء اليه ولما رآه تحنن

³³ But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,

³⁴فتقدم وضمد جراحاته وصب عليها زيتا وخمرا واركبه على دابته وأتى به الى فندق واعتنى به

³⁴ came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

³⁵وفي الغد لما مضى اخرج دينارين واعطاهما لصاحب الفندق وقال له اعتن به ومهما انفقت اكثر فعند رجوعي اوفيك.

³⁵ On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’

³⁶فاي هؤلاء الثلاثة ترى صار قريبا للذي وقع بين اللصوص.

³⁶ Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”

³⁷فقال الذي صنع معه الرحمة. فقال له يسوع اذهب انت ايضا واصنع هكذا

³⁷He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”

³⁸وفيما هم سائرون دخل قرية فقبلته امرأة اسمها مرثا في بيتها.

³⁸It happened as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

³⁹وكانت لهذه اخت تدعى مريم التي جلست عند قدمي يسوع وكانت تسمع كلامه.

³⁹She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.

⁴⁰واما مرثا فكانت مرتبكة في خدمة كثيرة. فوقفت وقالت يا رب أما تبالي بان اختي قد تركتني اخدم وحدي. فقل لها ان تعينني.

⁴⁰But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me.”

⁴¹فاجاب يسوع وقال لها مرثا مرثا انت تهتمين وتضطربين لاجل امور كثيرة.

⁴¹Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,

⁴²ولكن الحاجة الى واحد. فاختارت مريم النصيب الصالح الذي لن ينزع منها

⁴² but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
