ﻓﻴﻠﻴﺒﻲ 1
Arabic Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
1 مِنْ بُولُسَ وَتِيمُوثَاوُسَ، خَادِمَيِّ المَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، إلَى جَمِيعِ المؤمِنِينَ المُقَدَّسِينَ فِي المَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، السَّاكِنِينَ فِي فِيلِبِّي، مَعَ المُشرِفِينَ[a] وَالخُدَّامِ المُعَيَّنِينَ لِخَدَمَاتٍ خَاصَّةٍ. 2 لِتَحِلَّ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَةٌ وَسَلَامٌ مِنَ اللهِ أبِينَا، وَمِنْ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ.
صَلَاةُ بُولُس
3 إنَّنِي أشكُرُ اللهَ كُلَّمَا تَذَكَّرتُكُمْ. 4 فَأنَا أذكُرُكُمْ فِي كُلِّ صَلَوَاتِي بِفَرَحٍ، 5 لِأنَّكُمْ شَارَكتُمْ فِي نَشرِ البِشَارَةِ مِنْ أوَّلِ يَوْمٍ قَبِلتُمُوهَا فِيهِ وَإلَى الآنَ. 6 وَأنَا مُتَيَقِّنٌ مِنْ هَذِهِ الحَقِيقَةِ: أنَّ اللهَ الَّذِي بَدَأ مَعَكُمْ هَذَا العَمَلَ الصَّالِحَ، سَيُتَمِّمُهُ حَتَّى عَودَةِ المَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ.
7 يَصِحُّ لِي أنْ أُفَكِّرَ فِيكُمْ عَلَى هَذَا النَّحوِ، لِأنَّنِي أسكَنتُكُمْ فِي قَلْبِي. فَأنْتُمْ شُرَكَائِي فِي هَذِهِ النِّعمَةِ، الآنَ وَأنَا فِي السِّجْنِ، وَكَذَلِكَ وَأنَا أُدَافِعُ عَنِ البِشَارَةِ وَأُبَرهِنُهَا. 8 وَاللهُ يَشْهَدُ أنِّي أحِنُّ إلَيكُمْ حَنِينًا نَابِعًا مِنْ قَلْبِ المَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ.
9 وَهَذِهِ هِيَ صَلَاتِي:
أنْ تَنْمُوَ مَحَبَّتُكُمْ أكْثَرَ فَأكثَرَ، مَصْحُوبَةً بِالمَعْرِفَةِ وَالفَهْمِ العَمِيقِ. 10 فَتَتَمَكَّنُوا مِنْ تَمْيِيزِ مَا هُوَ أفْضَلُ، وَتَكُونُوا طَاهِرِينَ وَبِلَا عَيْبٍ عِنْدَ عَودَةِ المَسِيحِ، 11 وَمَمْلوئِينَ بِثِمَارِ البِرِّ الَّذِي فِي يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ لِمَجْدِ اللهِ وَتَسْبِيحِهِ.
المَتَاعِبُ وَانتِشَارُ البِشَارَة
12 أيُّهَا الإخْوَةُ، أرِيدُ أنْ تَعْلَمُوا أنَّ مَا حَدَثَ مَعِي أدَّى إلَى مَزِيدٍ مِنَ انتِشَارِ البِشَارَةِ. 13 فَقَدْ أصبَحَ مَعْرُوفًا بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ حُرَّاسِ القَصْرِ وَالجَمِيعِ هُنَا أنِّي مَسجُونٌ لِأجْلِ المَسِيحِ. 14 وَفَضلًا عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَدْ تَشَجَّعَ مُعظَمُ الإخوَةِ فِي الرَّبِّ بِسَبَبِ كَونِي فِي السِّجْنِ. وَهَا هُمْ أكْثَرُ جَسَارَةً فِي المُجَاهَرَةِ بِالكَلِمَةِ. 15 صَحِيحٌ أنَّ بَعْضَهُمْ يُبَشِّرُ بِالمَسِيحِ بِدَافِعِ لَفْتِ الانتِبَاهِ وَالمُنَافَسَةِ. غَيْرَ أنَّ آخَرِينَ يُبَشِّرُونَ بِنِيَّةٍ صَادِقَةٍ. 16 يُبَشِّرُ هَؤُلَاءِ بِدَافِعِ المَحَبَّةِ، لِأنَّهُمْ يَعْرِفُونَ أنَّ اللهَ أقَامَنِي لِلدِّفَاعِ عَنِ البِشَارَةِ. 17 أمَّا الآخَرُونَ فَيُبَشِّرُونَ بِالمَسِيحِ بِدَافِعٍ أنَانِيٍّ، لَا بِإخْلَاصٍ. فَهُمْ إنَّمَا يَظُنُّونَ أنَّهُمْ بِهَذَا يَزِيدُونَ مَتَاعِبِي وَأنَا فِي السِّجْنِ.
18 فَمَاذَا يَهُمُّ؟ مَا يَهُمُّ هُوَ أنَّ التَّبشِيرَ بِالمَسِيحِ يَتِمُّ بِطَرِيقَةٍ أوْ بِأُخرَى، بِدَافِعٍ سَيِّئٍ أوْ مُخْلِصٍ. وَبِهَذَا أنَا أفرَحُ، وَسَأفرَحُ أيْضًا. 19 فَأنَا عَالِمٌ أنَّ هَذَا سَيُؤَدِّي إلَى انتِصَارِي مِنْ خِلَالِ صَلَوَاتِكُمْ، وَمُسَانَدَةِ رُوحِ يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ. 20 وَسَيَكُونُ هَذَا مُتَوَافِقًا مَعَ تَوَقُّعِي وَرَجَائِي بِأنَّنِي لَنْ أفْشَلَ فِي شَيءٍ. لَكِنِ الآنَ، وَكَمَا هُوَ الأمْرُ دَائِمًا، سَيَتَعَظَّمُ المَسِيحُ فِي جَسَدِي سَوَاءٌ أعِشتُ أمْ مِتُّ. وَذَلِكَ بِسَبَبِ مُجَاهَرَتِي بِالبِشَارَةِ. 21 لِأنَّ المَسِيحَ هُوَ حَيَاتِي، وَالمَوْتُ رِبحٌ!
22 فَإذَا وَاصَلتُ حَيَاتِي فِي الجَسَدِ، سَأرَى ثِمَارَ تَعَبِي. فَلَا أدرِي أيُّهُمَا أختَارُ. 23 فَأنَا مُحتَارٌ بَيْنَ البَدِيلَينِ: لِيَ اشتِهَاءٌ أنْ أترُكَ هَذِهِ الحَيَاةَ وَأكُونَ مَعَ المَسِيحِ، فَذَلِكَ أفْضَلُ جِدًّا لِي. 24 لَكِنَّ بَقَائِي هُنَا فِي الجَسَدِ هُوَ أكْثَرُ نَفْعًا لَكُمْ. 25 وَبِمَا أنِّي مُتَأكِّدٌ مِنْ هَذَا، فَإنِّي عَلَى يَقِينٍ أنِّي سَأبقَى هُنَا مَعَكُمْ وَأُواصِلُ العَمَلَ مَعَكُمْ جَمِيعًا مِنْ أجْلِ تَقَدُّمِكُمْ وَفَرَحِكُمُ النَّابِعِ مِنَ الإيمَانِ. 26 وَبِهَذَا يَزدَادُ افتِخَارُكُمْ بِي فِي المَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ عِنْدَمَا أكُونُ بَيْنَكُمْ مِنْ جَدِيدٍ.
27 فَعِيشُوا بِطَرِيقَةٍ تَلِيقُ بِبِشَارَةِ المَسِيحِ. حَتَّى إذَا جِئتُ وَرَأيْتُكُمْ، وَجَدْتُكُم ثَابِتِينَ فِي رُوحٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَمُنَاضِلِينَ مَعًا مِنْ أجْلِ الإيمَانِ الَّذِي تُنَادِي بِهِ البِشَارَةُ. وَفِي غِيَابِي عَنْكُمْ، أُرِيدُ أنْ أسمَعَ هَذَا عَنْكُمْ أيْضًا. 28 لَا أُرِيدُ أنْ أسمَعَ أنَّ خُصُومَكُمْ نَجَحُوا فِي تَخويفِكُمْ، بَلْ لِتَكُنْ شَجَاعَتُكُمْ بُرهَانًا عَلَى هَلَاكِهِمْ وَعَلَى خَلَاصِكُمْ. وَهَذَا كُلُّهُ مِنَ اللهِ. 29 لِأنَّهُ مِنْ أجْلِ المَسِيحِ، أعطَاكُمُ اللهُ، لَا امتِيَازَ الإيمَانِ بِالمَسِيحِ فَحَسْبُ، بَلِ امتِيَازَ التَّألُّمِ مِنْ أجْلِهِ أيْضًا. 30 فَالمَعرَكَةُ الَّتِي تَخُوضُونَهَا هِيَ الَّتِي رَأيْتُمُونِي أخُوضُهَا فِيمَا مَضَى، وَتَسْمَعُونَ أنَّنِي أخُوضُهَا الآنَ أيْضًا.

Filippesi 1
Conferenza Episcopale Italiana
Indirizzo
1 Paolo e Timoteo, servi di Cristo Gesù, a tutti i santi in Cristo Gesù che sono a Filippi, con i vescovi e i diaconi. 2 Grazia a voi e pace da Dio, Padre nostro, e dal Signore Gesù Cristo.
Ringraziamento e preghiera
3 Ringrazio il mio Dio ogni volta ch'io mi ricordo di voi, 4 pregando sempre con gioia per voi in ogni mia preghiera, 5 a motivo della vostra cooperazione alla diffusione del vangelo dal primo giorno fino al presente, 6 e sono persuaso che colui che ha iniziato in voi quest'opera buona, la porterà a compimento fino al giorno di Cristo Gesù. 7 E' giusto, del resto, che io pensi questo di tutti voi, perché vi porto nel cuore, voi che siete tutti partecipi della grazia che mi è stata concessa sia nelle catene, sia nella difesa e nel consolidamento del vangelo. 8 Infatti Dio mi è testimonio del profondo affetto che ho per tutti voi nell'amore di Cristo Gesù. 9 E perciò prego che la vostra carità si arricchisca sempre più in conoscenza e in ogni genere di discernimento, 10 perché possiate distinguere sempre il meglio ed essere integri e irreprensibili per il giorno di Cristo, 11 ricolmi di quei frutti di giustizia che si ottengono per mezzo di Gesù Cristo, a gloria e lode di Dio.
Situazione personale di Paolo
12 Desidero che sappiate, fratelli, che le mie vicende si sono volte piuttosto a vantaggio del vangelo, 13 al punto che in tutto il pretorio e dovunque si sa che sono in catene per Cristo; 14 in tal modo la maggior parte dei fratelli, incoraggiati nel Signore dalle mie catene, ardiscono annunziare la parola di Dio con maggior zelo e senza timore alcuno. 15 Alcuni, è vero, predicano Cristo anche per invidia e spirito di contesa, ma altri con buoni sentimenti. 16 Questi lo fanno per amore, sapendo che sono stato posto per la difesa del vangelo; 17 quelli invece predicano Cristo con spirito di rivalità, con intenzioni non pure, pensando di aggiungere dolore alle mie catene. 18 Ma questo che importa? Purché in ogni maniera, per ipocrisia o per sincerità, Cristo venga annunziato, io me ne rallegro e continuerò a rallegrarmene. 19 So infatti che tutto questo servirà alla mia salvezza, grazie alla vostra preghiera e all'aiuto dello Spirito di Gesù Cristo, 20 secondo la mia ardente attesa e speranza che in nulla rimarrò confuso; anzi nella piena fiducia che, come sempre, anche ora Cristo sarà glorificato nel mio corpo, sia che io viva sia che io muoia.
21 Per me infatti il vivere è Cristo e il morire un guadagno. 22 Ma se il vivere nel corpo significa lavorare con frutto, non so davvero che cosa debba scegliere. 23 Sono messo alle strette infatti tra queste due cose: da una parte il desiderio di essere sciolto dal corpo per essere con Cristo, il che sarebbe assai meglio; 24 d'altra parte, è più necessario per voi che io rimanga nella carne. 25 Per conto mio, sono convinto che resterò e continuerò a essere d'aiuto a voi tutti, per il progresso e la gioia della vostra fede, 26 perché il vostro vanto nei miei riguardi cresca sempre più in Cristo, con la mia nuova venuta tra voi.
Lottare per la fede
27 Soltanto però comportatevi da cittadini degni del vangelo, perché nel caso che io venga e vi veda o che di lontano senta parlare di voi, sappia che state saldi in un solo spirito e che combattete unanimi per la fede del vangelo, 28 senza lasciarvi intimidire in nulla dagli avversari. Questo è per loro un presagio di perdizione, per voi invece di salvezza, e ciò da parte di Dio; 29 perché a voi è stata concessa la grazia non solo di credere in Cristo; ma anche di soffrire per lui, 30 sostenendo la stessa lotta che mi avete veduto sostenere e che ora sentite dire che io sostengo.
Philippians 1
King James Version
1 Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:
2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,
4 Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,
5 For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;
6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
7 Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.
8 For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.
9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;
10 That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ.
11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
12 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;
13 So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;
14 And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.
21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.
23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
24 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.
25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;
26 That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.
27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;
28 And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.
29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;
30 Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.
Philippians 1
New King James Version
Greeting
1 Paul and Timothy, bondservants of Jesus Christ,
To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the [a]bishops and (A)deacons:
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Thankfulness and Prayer
3 (B)I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, 4 always in (C)every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy, 5 (D)for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now, 6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun (E)a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ; 7 just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers with me of grace. 8 For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you all with the affection of Jesus Christ.
9 And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, 10 that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ, 11 being filled with the fruits of righteousness (F)which are by Jesus Christ, (G)to the glory and praise of God.
Christ Is Preached
12 But I want you to know, brethren, that the things which happened to me have actually turned out for the furtherance of the gospel, 13 so that it has become evident (H)to the whole [b]palace guard, and to all the rest, that my chains are in Christ; 14 and most of the brethren in the Lord, having become confident by my chains, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
15 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill: 16 [c]The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains; 17 but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel. 18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice.
To Live Is Christ
19 For I know that (I)this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 20 according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but (J)with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life (K)or by death. 21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I [d]cannot tell. 23 [e]For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a (L)desire to depart and be with Christ, which is (M)far better. 24 Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. 25 And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith, 26 that (N)your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again.
Striving and Suffering for Christ
27 Only (O)let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, (P)with one mind (Q)striving together for the faith of the gospel, 28 and not in any way terrified by your adversaries, which is to them a proof of perdition, but [f]to you of salvation, and that from God. 29 For to you (R)it has been granted on behalf of Christ, (S)not only to believe in Him, but also to (T)suffer for His sake, 30 (U)having the same conflict (V)which you saw in me and now hear is in me.
