King James Version with Apocrypha
1أَفَنَبْتَدِئُ نَمْدَحُ أَنْفُسَنَا؟ أَمْ لَعَلَّنَا نَحْتَاجُ كَقَوْمٍ رَسَائِلَ تَوْصِيَةٍ إِلَيْكُمْ، أَوْ رَسَائِلَ تَوْصِيَةٍ مِنْكُمْ؟
1Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others , epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you?
2أَنْتُمْ رِسَالَتُنَا، مَكْتُوبَةً فِي قُلُوبِنَا، مَعْرُوفَةً وَمَقْرُوءَةً مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلنَّاسِ.
2Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:
3ظَاهِرِينَ أَنَّكُمْ رِسَالَةُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، مَخْدُومَةً مِنَّا، مَكْتُوبَةً لَا بِحِبْرٍ بَلْ بِرُوحِ ٱللهِ ٱلْحَيِّ، لَا فِي أَلْوَاحٍ حَجَرِيَّةٍ بَلْ فِي أَلْوَاحِ قَلْبٍ لَحْمِيَّةٍ.
3Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
4وَلَكِنْ لَنَا ثِقَةٌ مِثْلُ هَذِهِ بِٱلْمَسِيحِ لَدَى ٱللهِ.
4And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:
5لَيْسَ أَنَّنَا كُفَاةٌ مِنْ أَنْفُسِنَا أَنْ نَفْتَكِرَ شَيْئًا كَأَنَّهُ مِنْ أَنْفُسِنَا، بَلْ كِفَايَتُنَا مِنَ ٱللهِ،
5Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;
6ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَنَا كُفَاةً لِأَنْ نَكُونَ خُدَّامَ عَهْدٍ جَدِيدٍ. لَا ٱلْحَرْفِ بَلِ ٱلرُّوحِ. لِأَنَّ ٱلْحَرْفَ يَقْتُلُ وَلَكِنَّ ٱلرُّوحَ يُحْيِي.
6Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
7ثُمَّ إِنْ كَانَتْ خِدْمَةُ ٱلْمَوْتِ، ٱلْمَنْقُوشَةُ بِأَحْرُفٍ فِي حِجَارَةٍ، قَدْ حَصَلَتْ فِي مَجْدٍ، حَتَّى لَمْ يَقْدِرْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنْ يَنْظُرُوا إِلَى وَجْهِ مُوسَى لِسَبَبِ مَجْدِ وَجْهِهِ ٱلزَّائِلِ،
7But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:
8فَكَيْفَ لَا تَكُونُ بِٱلْأَوْلَى خِدْمَةُ ٱلرُّوحِ فِي مَجْدٍ؟
8How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?
9لِأَنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَتْ خِدْمَةُ ٱلدَّيْنُونَةِ مَجْدًا، فَبِٱلْأَوْلَى كَثِيرًا تَزِيدُ خِدْمَةُ ٱلْبِرِّ فِي مَجْدٍ!
9For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.
10فَإِنَّ ٱلْمُمَجَّدَ أَيْضًا لَمْ يُمَجَّدْ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْقَبِيلِ لِسَبَبِ ٱلْمَجْدِ ٱلْفَائِقِ.
10For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.
11لِأَنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ ٱلزَّائِلُ فِي مَجْدٍ، فَبِٱلْأَوْلَى كَثِيرًا يَكُونُ ٱلدَّائِمُ فِي مَجْدٍ!
11For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.
12فَإِذْ لَنَا رَجَاءٌ مِثْلُ هَذَا نَسْتَعْمِلُ مُجَاهَرَةً كَثِيرَةً.
12Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:
13وَلَيْسَ كَمَا كَانَ مُوسَى يَضَعُ بُرْقُعًا عَلَى وَجْهِهِ لِكَيْ لَا يَنْظُرَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى نِهَايَةِ ٱلزَّائِلِ.
13And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:
14بَلْ أُغْلِظَتْ أَذْهَانُهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُ حَتَّى ٱلْيَوْمِ ذَلِكَ ٱلْبُرْقُعُ نَفْسُهُ عِنْدَ قِرَاءَةِ ٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلْعَتِيقِ بَاقٍ غَيْرُ مُنْكَشِفٍ، ٱلَّذِي يُبْطَلُ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ.
14But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
15لَكِنْ حَتَّى ٱلْيَوْمِ، حِينَ يُقْرَأُ مُوسَى، ٱلْبُرْقُعُ مَوْضُوعٌ عَلَى قَلْبِهِمْ.
15But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
16وَلَكِنْ عِنْدَمَا يَرْجِعُ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ يُرْفَعُ ٱلْبُرْقُعُ.
16Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
17وَأَمَّا ٱلرَّبُّ فَهُوَ ٱلرُّوحُ، وَحَيْثُ رُوحُ ٱلرَّبِّ هُنَاكَ حُرِّيَّةٌ.
17Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is , there is liberty.
18وَنَحْنُ جَمِيعًا نَاظِرِينَ مَجْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ بِوَجْهٍ مَكْشُوفٍ، كَمَا في مِرْآةٍ، نَتَغَيَّرُ إِلَى تِلْكَ ٱلصُّورَةِ عَيْنِهَا، مِنْ مَجْدٍ إِلَى مَجْدٍ، كَمَا مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلرُّوحِ.
18But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
