| Epistle Reading Acts of the Apostles 21:8-14 | أعمال الرسل 21: 8-14 |
IN THOSE DAYS, the apostles departed and came to Caesarea; and we entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him. And he had four unmarried daughters, who prophesied. While we were staying for some days, a prophet named Agabos came down from Judea. And coming to us he took Paul's girdle and bound his own feet and hands, and said, "Thus says the Holy Spirit, 'So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man who owns this girdle and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.'" When we heard this, we and the people there begged him not to go up to Jerusalem. Then Paul answered, "What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus." And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased and said, "The will of the Lord be done." | 8 في تلك الأيام خَرَج الرسل وجاؤوا إِلَى قَيْصَرِيَّةَ فَدَخَلْوا بَيْتَ فِيلُبُّسَ الْمُبَشِّرِ إِذْ كَانَ وَاحِداً مِنَ السَّبْعَةِ وَأَقَمْوا عِنْدَهُ. 9وَكَانَ لِهَذَا أَرْبَعُ بَنَاتٍ عَذَارَى كُنَّ يَتَنَبَّأْنَ. 10وَبَيْنَمَا هم مُقِيمُونَ أَيَّاماً كَثِيرَةً انْحَدَرَ مِنَ الْيَهُودِيَّةِ نَبِيٌّ اسْمُهُ أَغَابُوسُ. 11فَجَاءَ إِلَيْهم وَأَخَذَ مِنْطَقَةَ بُولُسَ وَرَبَطَ يَدَيْ نَفْسِهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ وَقَالَ: ((هَذَا يَقُولُهُ الرُّوحُ الْقُدُسُ: الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي لَهُ هَذِهِ الْمِنْطَقَةُ هَكَذَا سَيَرْبُطُهُ الْيَهُودُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ وَيُسَلِّمُونَهُ إِلَى أَيْدِي الْأُمَمِ)). 12فَلَمَّا سَمِعْوا هَذَا طَلَبْوا إِلَيْهِ هم وَالَّذِينَ مِنَ الْمَكَانِ أَنْ لاَ يَصْعَدَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ.13فَأَجَابَ بُولُسُ: ((مَاذَا تَفْعَلُونَ؟ تَبْكُونَ وَتَكْسِرُونَ قَلْبِي. لأَنِّي مُسْتَعِدٌّ لَيْسَ أَنْ أُرْبَطَ فَقَطْ بَلْ أَنْ أَمُوتَ أَيْضاً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لأَجْلِ اسْمِ الرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ)). 14وَلَمَّا لَمْ يُقْنَعْ سَكَتْوا قَائِلِينَ: ((لِتَكُنْ مَشِيئَةُ الرَّبِّ)).

| Gospel Reading John 14:27-15:7 | يوحنا 14: 27-15: 7 |
The Lord said to his disciples, "Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. You heard me say to you, 'I go away, and I will come to you.' If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I. And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place, you may believe. I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me; but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go hence. "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch of mine that bears no fruit, he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already made clean by the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you." | 27 قال الرب لتلاميذه: لاَ تَضْطَرِبْ قُلُوبُكُمْ وَلاَ تَرْهَبْ. 28سَمِعْتُمْ أَنِّي قُلْتُ لَكُمْ: أَنَا أَذْهَبُ ثُمَّ آتِي إِلَيْكُمْ. لَوْ كُنْتُمْ تُحِبُّونَنِي لَكُنْتُمْ تَفْرَحُونَ لأَنِّي قُلْتُ أَمْضِي إِلَى الآبِ، لأَنَّ أَبِي أَعْظَمُ مِنِّي. 29وَقُلْتُ لَكُمُ الآنَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَكُونَ، حَتَّى مَتَى كَانَ تُؤْمِنُونَ. 30لاَ أَتَكَلَّمُ أَيْضاً مَعَكُمْ كَثِيراً، لأَنَّ رَئِيسَ هَذَا الْعَالَمِ يَأْتِي وَلَيْسَ لَهُ فِيَّ شَيْءٌ. 31وَلَكِنْ لِيَفْهَمَ الْعَالَمُ أَنِّي أُحِبُّ الآبَ، وَكَمَا أَوْصَانِي الآبُ هَكَذَا أَفْعَلُ. قُومُوا نَنْطَلِقْ مِنْ هَهُنَا. 1أَنَا الْكَرْمَةُ الْحَقِيقِيَّةُ وَأَبِي الْكَرَّامُ. 2كُلُّ غُصْنٍ فِيَّ لاَ يَأْتِي بِثَمَرٍ يَنْزِعُهُ، وَكُلُّ مَا يَأْتِي بِثَمَرٍ يُنَقِّيهِ لِيَأْتِيَ بِثَمَرٍ أَكْثَرَ. 3أَنْتُمُ الآنَ أَنْقِيَاءُ لِسَبَبِ الْكَلاَمِ الَّذِي كَلَّمْتُكُمْ بِهِ. 4اُثْبُتُوا فِيَّ وَأَنَا فِيكُمْ. كَمَا أَنَّ الْغُصْنَ لاَ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ بِثَمَرٍ مِنْ ذَاتِهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَثْبُتْ فِي الْكَرْمَةِ، كَذَلِكَ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً إِنْ لَمْ تَثْبُتُوا فِيَّ. 5أَنَا الْكَرْمَةُ وَأَنْتُمُ الأَغْصَانُ. الَّذِي يَثْبُتُ فِيَّ وَأَنَا فِيهِ هَذَا يَأْتِي بِثَمَرٍ كَثِيرٍ، لأَنَّكُمْ بِدُونِي لاَ تَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ تَفْعَلُوا شَيْئاً. 6إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ لاَ يَثْبُتُ فِيَّ يُطْرَحُ خَارِجاً كَالْغُصْنِ، فَيَجِفُّ وَيَجْمَعُونَهُ وَيَطْرَحُونَهُ فِي النَّارِ، فَيَحْتَرِقُ. 7إِنْ ثَبَتُّمْ فِيَّ وَثَبَتَ كلاَمِي فِيكُمْ تَطْلُبُونَ مَا تُرِيدُونَ فَيَكُونُ لَكُمْ.
