أمام الحاكم فيلكس
1 وَبَعْدَ 5 أَيَّامٍ نَزَلَ حَنَانْيَا رَئِيسُ الْأَحْبَارِ إِلَى قَيْصَرِيَّةَ وَمَعَهُ بَعْضُ الشُّيُوخِ وَمُحَامٍ اسْمُهُ تَرْتُلُّسُ، وَشَكَوْا بُولُسَ إِلَى الْحَاكِمِ. 2 فَلَمَّا دُعِيَ بُولُسُ، قَدَّمَ تَرْتُلُّسُ الشَّكْوَى أَمَامَ فِيلِكْسَ فَقَالَ: ”نَحْنُ بِفَضْلِكَ نَتَمَتَّعُ بِسَلَامٍ وَافِرٍ، وَإِنَّ الْإِصْلَاحَ الَّذِي تَمَّ لِخَيْرِ هَذِهِ الْبِلَادِ، يَعُودُ إِلَى حُسْنِ تَدْبِيرِكَ 3 يَا صَاحِبَ الْفَخَامَةِ فِيلِكْسَ. فَنَحْنُ نَقْبَلُ هَذَا كُلَّهُ بِالشُّكْرِ الْجَزِيلِ دَائِمًا وَفِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ. 4 وَلِكَيْ لَا أُطِيلَ الْكَلَامَ عَلَيْكَ، أَرْجُو أَنْ تَسْمَعَنَا بِلُطْفِكَ بِاخْتِصَارٍ. 5 نَحْنُ وَجَدْنَا هَذَا الرَّجُلَ يُسَبِّبُ الْمَشَاكِلَ وَيُثِيرُ الْاِضْطِرَابَ بَيْنَ الْيَهُودِ فِي جَمِيعِ أَنْحَاءِ الْعَالَمِ. وَهُوَ زَعِيمُ طَائِفَةِ النَّصَارَى، 6 وَحَاوَلَ أَيْضًا أَنْ يُنَجِّسَ بَيْتَ اللهِ. فَقَبَضْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَأَرَدْنَا أَنْ نُحَاكِمَهُ حَسَبَ شَرِيعَتِنَا. 7 فَجَاءَ الْقَائِدُ لِيسِيَاسُ، وَاسْتَخْدَمَ مَعَنَا الْعُنْفَ وَأَخَذَهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِينَا، 8 وَأَمَرَ خُصُومَهُ بِأَنْ يَرْفَعُوا شَكْوَاهُمْ إِلَيْكَ. فَعِنْدَمَا تَسْتَجْوِبُهُ أَنْتَ بِنَفْسِكَ، يُمْكِنُكَ أَنْ تَعْرِفَ أَنَّ شَكْوَانَا ضِدَّهُ صَحِيحَةٌ.“ 9 وَوَافَقَ بَاقِي الْيَهُودِ عَلَى أَنَّ هَذَا الْكَلَامَ صَحِيحٌ.
Before Governor Felix
1 Five days later Ananias, the high priest, came down to Caesarea with some of the elders and a lawyer named Tertullus, and they brought a charge against Paul to the governor. 2 When Paul was called in, Tertullus presented the charge before Felix, saying, “Thanks to you, we are enjoying abundant peace; and furthermore, the reform that has taken place for the welfare of this country is due to your good planning, 3 Your Excellency, Felix. We accept all of this with many thanks always and in every place. 4 So as not to prolong my speech to you, I hope you will listen to us briefly out of your kindness. 5 We have found that this man causes problems and stirs up turmoil among the Jews all over the world. He is a leader of the Nazarene sect. 6 He also tried to defile the Temple of Allah, so we arrested him and wanted to judge him according to our religious law. 7 But Commander Lysias came, and using force with us, he took him out of our hands. 8 He commanded his opponents to bring their charges to you. When you interrogate him yourself, you will be able to know that our charges against him are valid.” 9 The rest of the Jews agreed that this statement was correct.
10 فَأَشَارَ الْحَاكِمُ إِلَى بُولُسَ لِيَتَكَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: ”أَنَا عَارِفٌ أَنَّكَ مُنْذُ سِنِينَ عَدِيدَةٍ تَحْكُمُ بِالْعَدْلِ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ فِي أُمَّتِنَا، لِذَلِكَ أُدَافِعُ عَنْ نَفْسِي بِارْتِيَاحٍ. 11 يُمْكِنُكَ بِسُهُولَةٍ أَنْ تَتَبَيَّنَ أَنِّي ذَهَبْتُ إِلَى الْقُدْسِ لِلْعِبَادَةِ مُنْذُ مَا لَا يَزِيدُ عَنِ 12 يَوْمًا. 12 وَلَمْ يَجِدْنِي خُصُومِي أُجَادِلُ أَحَدًا فِي مُجَمَّعِ بَيْتِ اللهِ أَوْ أُثِيرُ الشَّعْبَ فِي بُيُوتِ الْعِبَادَةِ وَلَا فِي أَيِّ مَكَانٍ آخَرَ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ. 13 وَلَا يُمْكِنُهُمْ أَنْ يُثْبِتُوا لَكَ الشَّكْوَى الَّتِي يُقَدِّمُونَهَا ضِدِّيَ الْآنَ. 14 إِنَّمَا أَشْهَدُ أَنِّي أَعْبُدُ إِلَهَ آبَائِنَا حَسَبَ الطَّرِيقِ* الَّذِي يَصِفُونَهُ بِأَنَّهُ بِدْعَةٌ، وَأُؤْمِنُ بِكُلِّ مَا فِي التَّوْرَاةِ وَصُحُفِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ. 15 وَعِنْدِي نَفْسُ الرَّجَاءِ فِي اللهِ مِثْلُ هَؤُلَاءِ، وَهُوَ قِيَامَةُ الْمَوْتَى مِنْ صَالِحِينَ وَأَشْرَارٍ. 16 لِهَذَا أَبْذِلُ جُهْدِي دَائِمًا لِيَكُونَ ضَمِيرِي نَقِيًّا أَمَامَ اللهِ وَالنَّاسِ.
10 The governor then gestured to Paul to speak. So he said, “I know that for many years you have ruled with justice among the people of our nation; for that [reason] I can defend myself with peace of mind. 11 You can easily verify that I went to Jerusalem to worship not more than twelve days ago. 12 My opponents never found me arguing with anyone in the Temple complex or stirring up a crowd in the houses of worship or anywhere else in the city. 13 It's impossible for them to prove to you the charge that they're now bringing against me. 14 However, I acknowledge that I worship the Allah of our forefathers according to the Way,* which they characterize as a heresy, and I believe in everything that is in the Taurat and the Writings of the Prophets, 15 and I have the same hope in Allah as these [men], namely the resurrection of the dead, both good and bad. 16 For this reason, I always strive to have a clear conscience before Allah and people.
17 ”وَبَعْدَ غِيَابِ عِدَّةِ سَنَوَاتٍ عَنِ الْقُدْسِ، رَجَعْتُ لِأُحْضِرَ لِشَعْبِي بَعْضَ الْهَدَايَا لِلْفُقَرَاءِ وَلِكَيْ أُقَدِّمَ بَعْضَ الْقَرَابِينِ. 18 فَلَمَّا وَجَدُونِي أَعْمَلُ هَذَا فِي مُجَمَّعِ بَيْتِ اللهِ، كُنْتُ قَدْ تَطَهَّرْتُ. وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَعِي جُمْهُورٌ، وَلَا سَبَّبْتُ أَيَّ فَوْضَى. 19 لَكِنْ كَانَ هُنَاكَ بَعْضُ الْيَهُودِ مِنْ وِلَايَةِ آسْيَا، كَانَ يَجِبُ أَنْ يَأْتُوا هُمْ بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ أَمَامَكَ وَيُقَدِّمُوا شَكْوَاهُمْ لَوْ كَانَ عِنْدَهُمْ شَيْءٌ ضِدِّي! 20 أَوْ هَؤُلَاءِ الْمَوْجُودُونَ هُنَا، هَلْ فِي إِمْكَانِهِمْ أَنْ يَقُولُوا مَا هُوَ الذَّنْبُ الَّذِي وَجَدُوهُ فِيَّ لَمَّا حُوكِمْتُ أَمَامَ الْمَجْلِسِ الْأَعْلَى؟ 21 إِلَّا طَبْعًا هَذَا الْأَمْرَ الَّذِي أَعْلَنْتُهُ وَأَنَا وَاقِفٌ بَيْنَهُمْ وَقُلْتُ، ’أَنْتُمْ تُحَاكِمُونِي الْيَوْمَ لِأَنَّ عِنْدِي رَجَاءً أَنَّ الْمَوْتَى سَيَقُومُونَ.‘ “
17 “After an absence of several years from Jerusalem, I returned to bring my people some gifts for the poor and to present some offerings. 18 When they found me doing that at the Temple complex, I had already been purified. There was no crowd with me, nor had I caused any turmoil. 19 But there were some Jews from the province of Asia who should have come themselves before you to present their charge if they had anything against me! 20 Or these [men] present here: Can they possibly say what wrongdoing they found in me when I was tried before the High Council? 21 Except of course this statement which I declared while I was standing among them, saying, ‘You are putting me on trial today because I have hope that the dead will rise!’”
22 وَكَانَ فِيلِكْسُ عِنْدَهُ مَعْرِفَةٌ جَيِّدَةٌ عَنْ طَرِيقِ عِيسَى، فَأَنْهَى الْاِجْتِمَاعَ وَقَالَ: ”عِنْدَمَا يَحْضُرُ الْقَائِدُ لِيسِيَاسُ سَأَحْكُمُ فِي قَضِيَّتِكَ.“ 23 وَأَمَرَ الضَّابِطَ أَنْ يَحْفَظَ بُولُسَ تَحْتَ الْحِرَاسَةِ، وَأَنْ يُعْطِيَهُ بَعْضَ الْحُرِّيَّةِ، وَأَنْ يَسْمَحَ لِأَصْدِقَائِهِ أَنْ يَزُورُوهُ وَيَخْدِمُوهُ.
22 Now Felix had a good knowledge of the Way of Isa, so he ended the meeting and said, “When Commander Lysias comes I will judge your case.” 23 He ordered the officer to keep Paul under guard, to give him some freedom, and to allow his friends to visit him and be of service to him.
أمام فيلكس ودروسلا
24 وَبَعْدَ عِدَّةِ أَيَّامٍ جَاءَ فِيلِكْسُ وَمَعَهُ دُرُوسِلَا زَوْجَتُهُ وَهِيَ يَهُودِيَّةٌ. فَاسْتَدْعَى بُولُسَ وَاسْتَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ. فَكَلَّمَهُ بُولُسُ عَنِ الْإِيمَانِ بِالْمَسِيحِ عِيسَى. 25 وَبَيْنَمَا بُولُسُ يَتَحَدَّثُ عَنِ الصَّلَاحِ وَضَبْطِ النَّفْسِ وَيَوْمِ الدِّينِ خَافَ فِيلِكْسُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: ”هَذَا يَكْفِي الْآنَ! اِذْهَبْ وَعِنْدَمَا أَجِدُ الْوَقْتَ الْمُنَاسِبَ أَسْتَدْعِيكَ.“ 26 وَكَانَ يَرْجُو أَنْ يُعْطِيَهُ بُولُسُ رَشْوَةً، لِذَلِكَ كَانَ يُرْسِلُ وَيَسْتَدْعِيهِ كَثِيرًا وَيَتَحَدَّثُ مَعَهُ.
Before Felix and Drusilla
24 A number of days later, Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish. He summoned Paul and listened to him. Paul told him about faith in the Messiah Isa. 25 As Paul was speaking about righteousness and self-control and the Day of Judgment, Felix became afraid and said to him, “This is enough for now! Go, and when I find a suitable time, I will summon you.” 26 He was hoping that Paul would give him a bribe, so he would often send for him and converse with him.
27 وَمَرَّتْ سَنَتَانِ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ مَكَانَ فِيلِكْسَ حَاكِمٌ آخَرُ اسْمُهُ بَرْكِيُوسُ فُسْتُوسُ. وَأَرَادَ فِيلِكْسُ أَنْ يُرْضِيَ الْيَهُودَ، فَتَرَكَ بُولُسَ فِي السِّجْنِ.
27 Two years passed. Then another governor came in place of Felix; his name was Porcius Festus. Felix wanted to please the Jews, so he left Paul in prison.
