1 GLT وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ عَيَّنَ ٱلرَّبُّ سَبْعِينَ آخَرِينَ أَيْضًا، وَأَرْسَلَهُمُ ٱثْنَيْنِ ٱثْنَيْنِ أَمَامَ وَجْهِهِ إِلَى كُلِّ مَدِينَةٍ وَمَوْضِعٍ حَيْثُ كَانَ هُوَ مُزْمِعًا أَنْ يَأْتِيَ. BSB BSB: After this, the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of Him to every town and place He was about to visit.
2 GLT فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنَّ ٱلْحَصَادَ كَثِيرٌ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْفَعَلَةَ قَلِيلُونَ. فَٱطْلُبُوا مِنْ رَبِّ ٱلْحَصَادِ أَنْ يُرْسِلَ فَعَلَةً إِلَى حَصَادِهِ. BSB BSB: And He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest.
3 GLT اِذْهَبُوا! هَا أَنَا أُرْسِلُكُمْ مِثْلَ حُمْلَانٍ بَيْنَ ذِئَابٍ. BSB BSB: Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.
4 GLT لَا تَحْمِلُوا كِيسًا وَلَا مِزْوَدًا وَلَا أَحْذِيَةً، وَلَا تُسَلِّمُوا عَلَى أَحَدٍ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ. BSB BSB: Carry no purse or bag or sandals. Do not greet anyone along the road.
5 GLT وَأَيُّ بَيْتٍ دَخَلْتُمُوهُ فَقُولُوا أَوَّلًا: سَلَامٌ لِهَذَا ٱلْبَيْتِ. BSB BSB: Whatever house you enter, begin by saying, ‘Peace to this house.’
7 GLT وَأَقِيمُوا فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْبَيْتِ آكِلِينَ وَشَارِبِينَ مِمَّا عِنْدَهُمْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْفَاعِلَ مُسْتَحِقٌّ أُجْرَتَهُ. لَا تَنْتَقِلُوا مِنْ بَيْتٍ إِلَى بَيْتٍ. BSB BSB: Stay at the same house, eating and drinking whatever you are offered. For the worker is worthy of his wages. Do not move around from house to house.
8 GLT وَأَيَّةَ مَدِينَةٍ دَخَلْتُمُوهَا وَقَبِلُوكُمْ، فَكُلُوا مِمَّا يُقَدَّمُ لَكُمْ، BSB BSB: If you enter a town and they welcome you, eat whatever is set before you.
9 GLT وَٱشْفُوا ٱلْمَرْضَى ٱلَّذِينَ فِيهَا، وَقُولُوا لَهُمْ: قَدِ ٱقْتَرَبَ مِنْكُمْ مَلَكُوتُ ٱللهِ. BSB BSB: Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘The kingdom of God is near you.’
10 GLT وَأَيَّةُ مَدِينَةٍ دَخَلْتُمُوهَا وَلَمْ يَقْبَلُوكُمْ، فَٱخْرُجُوا إِلَى شَوَارِعِهَا وَقُولُوا: BSB BSB: But if you enter a town and they do not welcome you, go into the streets and declare,
11 GLT حَتَّى ٱلْغُبَارَ ٱلَّذِي لَصِقَ بِنَا مِنْ مَدِينَتِكُمْ نَنْفُضُهُ لَكُمْ. وَلَكِنِ ٱعْلَمُوا هَذَا: إنَّهُ قَدِ ٱقْتَرَبَ مِنْكُمْ مَلَكُوتُ ٱللهِ. BSB BSB: ‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet, we wipe off as a testimony against you. Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God is near.’
12 GLT وَأَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُ يَكُونُ لِسَدُومَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ حَالَةٌ أَكْثَرُ ٱحْتِمَالًا مِمَّا لِتِلْكَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. BSB BSB: I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that town.
13 GLT «وَيْلٌ لَكِ يَا كُورَزِينُ! وَيْلٌ لَكِ يَا بَيْتَ صَيْدَا! لِأَنَّهُ لَوْ صُنِعَتْ فِي صُورَ وَصَيْدَاءَ ٱلْقُوَّاتُ ٱلْمَصْنُوعَةُ فِيكُمَا، لَتَابَتَا قَدِيمًا جَالِسَتَيْنِ فِي ٱلْمُسُوحِ وَٱلرَّمَادِ. BSB BSB: Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 GLT وَلَكِنَّ صُورَ وَصَيْدَاءَ يَكُونُ لَهُمَا فِي ٱلدِّينِ حَالَةٌ أَكْثَرُ ٱحْتِمَالًا مِمَّا لَكُمَا. BSB BSB: But it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you.
15 GLT وَأَنْتِ يَا كَفْرَنَاحُومَ ٱلْمُرْتَفِعَةُ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ! سَتُهْبَطِينَ إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ. BSB BSB: And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades!
16 GLT اَلَّذِي يَسْمَعُ مِنْكُمْ يَسْمَعُ مِنِّي، وَٱلَّذِي يُرْذِلُكُمْ يُرْذِلُنِي، وَٱلَّذِي يُرْذِلُنِي يُرْذِلُ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي». BSB BSB: Whoever listens to you listens to Me; whoever rejects you rejects Me; and whoever rejects Me rejects the One who sent Me.”
17 GLT فَرَجَعَ ٱلسَّبْعُونَ بِفَرَحٍ قَائِلِينَ: «يَا رَبُّ، حَتَّى ٱلشَّيَاطِينُ تَخْضَعُ لَنَا بِٱسْمِكَ!». BSB BSB: The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in Your name.”
18 GLT فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «رَأَيْتُ ٱلشَّيْطَانَ سَاقِطًا مِثْلَ ٱلْبَرْقِ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. BSB BSB: So He told them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.
19 GLT هَا أَنَا أُعْطِيكُمْ سُلْطَانًا لِتَدُوسُوا ٱلْحَيَّاتِ وَٱلْعَقَارِبَ وَكُلَّ قُوَّةِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ، وَلَا يَضُرُّكُمْ شَيْءٌ. BSB BSB: Behold, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will harm you.
20 GLT وَلَكِنْ لَا تَفْرَحُوا بِهَذَا: أَنَّ ٱلْأَرْوَاحَ تَخْضَعُ لَكُمْ، بَلِ ٱفْرَحُوا بِٱلْحَرِيِّ أَنَّ أَسْمَاءَكُمْ كُتِبَتْ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ». BSB BSB: Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
21 GLT وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ تَهَلَّلَ يَسُوعُ بِٱلرُّوحِ وَقَالَ: «أَحْمَدُكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْآبُ، رَبُّ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّكَ أَخْفَيْتَ هَذِهِ عَنِ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ وَٱلْفُهَمَاءِ وَأَعْلَنْتَهَا لِلْأَطْفَالِ. نَعَمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْآبُ، لِأَنْ هَكَذَا صَارَتِ ٱلْمَسَرَّةُ أَمَامَكَ». BSB BSB: At that time Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and declared, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was well-pleasing in Your sight.
22 GLT وَٱلْتَفَتَ إِلَى تَلَامِيذِهِ وَقَالَ: «كُلُّ شَيْءٍ قَدْ دُفِعَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَبِي. وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَعْرِفُ مَنْ هُوَ ٱلِٱبْنُ إِلَّا ٱلْآبُ، وَلَا مَنْ هُوَ ٱلْآبُ إِلَّا ٱلِٱبْنُ، وَمَنْ أَرَادَ ٱلِٱبْنُ أَنْ يُعْلِنَ لَهُ». BSB BSB: All things have been entrusted to Me by My Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.”
23 GLT وَٱلْتَفَتَ إِلَى تَلَامِيذِهِ عَلَى ٱنْفِرَادٍ وَقَالَ: «طُوبَى لِلْعُيُونِ ٱلَّتِي تَنْظُرُ مَا تَنْظُرُونَهُ! BSB BSB: Then Jesus turned to the disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.
24 GLT لِأَنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ أَنْبِيَاءَ كَثِيرِينَ وَمُلُوكًا أَرَادُوا أَنْ يَنْظُرُوا مَا أَنْتُمْ تَنْظُرُونَ وَلَمْ يَنْظُرُوا، وَأَنْ يَسْمَعُوا مَا أَنْتُمْ تَسْمَعُونَ وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا». BSB BSB: For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”
25 GLT وَإِذَا نَامُوسِيٌّ قَامَ يُجَرِّبُهُ قَائِلًا: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، مَاذَا أَعْمَلُ لِأَرِثَ ٱلْحَيَاةَ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةَ؟». BSB BSB: One day an expert in the law stood up to test Him. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
26 GLT فَقَالَ لَهُ: «مَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي ٱلنَّامُوسِ. كَيْفَ تَقْرَأُ؟». BSB BSB: “What is written in the Law?” Jesus replied. “How do you read it?”
27 GLT فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ: «تُحِبُّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ نَفْسِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ قُدْرَتِكَ، وَمِنْ كُلِّ فِكْرِكَ، وَقَرِيبَكَ مِثْلَ نَفْسِكَ». BSB BSB: He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
28 GLT فَقَالَ لَهُ: «بِٱلصَّوَابِ أَجَبْتَ. اِفْعَلْ هَذَا فَتَحْيَا». BSB BSB: “You have answered correctly,” Jesus said. “Do this and you will live.”
29 GLT وَأَمَّا هُوَ فَإِذْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُبَرِّرَ نَفْسَهُ، قَالَ لِيَسُوعَ: «وَمَنْ هُوَ قَرِيبِي؟». BSB BSB: But wanting to justify himself, he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 GLT فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ: «إِنْسَانٌ كَانَ نَازِلًا مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى أَرِيحَا، فَوَقَعَ بَيْنَ لُصُوصٍ، فَعَرَّوْهُ وَجَرَّحُوهُ، وَمَضَوْا وَتَرَكُوهُ بَيْنَ حَيٍّ وَمَيْتٍ. BSB BSB: Jesus took up this question and said, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him, beat him, and went away, leaving him half dead.
31 GLT فَعَرَضَ أَنَّ كَاهِنًا نَزَلَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلطَّرِيقِ، فَرَآهُ وَجَازَ مُقَابِلَهُ. BSB BSB: Now by chance a priest was going down the same road, but when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 GLT وَكَذَلِكَ لَاوِيٌّ أَيْضًا، إِذْ صَارَ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَكَانِ جَاءَ وَنَظَرَ وَجَازَ مُقَابِلَهُ. BSB BSB: So too, when a Levite came to that spot and saw him, he passed by on the other side.
33 GLT وَلَكِنَّ سَامِرِيًّا مُسَافِرًا جَاءَ إِلَيْهِ، وَلَمَّا رَآهُ تَحَنَّنَ، BSB BSB: But a Samaritan on a journey came upon him, and when he saw him, he had compassion.
34 GLT فَتَقَدَّمَ وَضَمَدَ جِرَاحَاتِهِ، وَصَبَّ عَلَيْهَا زَيْتًا وَخَمْرًا، وَأَرْكَبَهُ عَلَى دَابَّتِهِ، وَأَتَى بِهِ إِلَى فُنْدُقٍ وَٱعْتَنَى بِهِ. BSB BSB: He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 GLT وَفِي ٱلْغَدِ لَمَّا مَضَى أَخْرَجَ دِينَارَيْنِ وَأَعْطَاهُمَا لِصَاحِبِ ٱلْفُنْدُقِ، وَقَالَ لَهُ: ٱعْتَنِ بِهِ، وَمَهْمَا أَنْفَقْتَ أَكْثَرَ فَعِنْدَ رُجُوعِي أُوفِيكَ. BSB BSB: The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Take care of him,’ he said, ‘and on my return I will repay you for any additional expense.’
36 GLT فَأَيَّ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ تَرَى صَارَ قَرِيبًا لِلَّذِي وَقَعَ بَيْنَ ٱللُّصُوصِ؟». BSB BSB: Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”
37 GLT فَقَالَ: «ٱلَّذِي صَنَعَ مَعَهُ ٱلرَّحْمَةَ». فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «ٱذْهَبْ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا وَٱصْنَعْ هَكَذَا». BSB BSB: “The one who showed him mercy,” replied the expert in the law. Then Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”
39 GLT وَكَانَتْ لِهَذِهِ أُخْتٌ تُدْعَى مَرْيَمَ، ٱلَّتِي جَلَسَتْ عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْ يَسُوعَ وَكَانَتْ تَسْمَعُ كَلَامَهُ. BSB BSB: She had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to His message.
40 GLT وَأَمَّا مَرْثَا فَكَانَتْ مُرْتَبِكَةً فِي خِدْمَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ. فَوَقَفَتْ وَقَالَتْ: «يَا رَبُّ، أَمَا تُبَالِي بِأَنَّ أُخْتِي قَدْ تَرَكَتْنِي أَخْدُمُ وَحْدِي؟ فَقُلْ لَهَا أَنْ تُعِينَنِي!». BSB BSB: But Martha was distracted by all the preparations to be made. She came to Jesus and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her to help me!”
41 GLT فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَها: «مَرْثَا، مَرْثَا، أَنْتِ تَهْتَمِّينَ وَتَضْطَرِبِينَ لِأَجْلِ أُمُورٍ كَثِيرَةٍ، BSB BSB: “Martha, Martha,” the Lord replied, “you are worried and upset about many things.
42 GLT وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْحَاجَةَ إِلَى وَاحِدٍ. فَٱخْتَارَتْ مَرْيَمُ ٱلنَّصِيبَ ٱلصَّالِحَ ٱلَّذِي لَنْ يُنْزَعَ مِنْهَا». BSB BSB: But only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, and it will not be taken away from her.”
