1.Korinther 1 | الكتاب المقدس

1 مِنْ بُولُسَ، رَسُولِ الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، الْمَدْعُوِّ بِمَشِيئَةِ اللهِ، وَمِنَ الأَخِ سُوسْتَانِيسَ، 2 إِلَى كَنِيسَةِ اللهِ فِي مَدِينَةِ كُورِنْثُوسَ، إِلَى الَّذِينَ تَقَدَّسُوا فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، الْمَدْعُوِّينَ، الْقِدِّيسِينَ؛ وَإِلَى جَمِيعِ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ بِاسْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ رَبّاً لَهُمْ وَلَنَا. 3 لِتَكُنْ لَكُمُ النِّعْمَةُ وَالسَّلامُ مِنَ اللهِ أَبِينَا وَالرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ!

شكر

4 إِنِّي أَشْكُرُ اللهَ مِنْ أَجْلِكُمْ دَائِماً، وَعَلَى نِعْمَةِ اللهِ الْمَوْهُوبَةِ لَكُمْ فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ. 5 فَبِهِ قَدْ صِرْتُمْ أَغْنِيَاءَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، فِي كُلِّ كَلامٍ، وَكُلِّ مَعْرِفَةٍ، 6 بِمِقْدَارِ مَا تَرَسَّخَتْ فِيكُمْ شَهَادَةُ الْمَسِيحِ. 7 حَتَّى إِنَّكُمْ لَا تَحْتَاجُونَ بَعْدُ إِلَى أَيَّةِ مَوْهِبَةٍ فِيمَا تَتَوَقَّعُونَ ظُهُورَ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ عَلَناً. 8 وَهُوَ نَفْسُهُ سَيَحْفَظُكُمْ ثَابِتِينَ إِلَى النِّهَايَةِ حَتَّى تَكُونُوا بِلا عَيْبٍ فِي يَوْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ. 9 فَإِنَّ اللهَ أَمِينٌ، وَقَدْ دَعَاكُمْ إِلَى الشَّرِكَةِ مَعَ ابْنِهِ يَسُوعَ رَبِّنَا.

10 عَلَى أَنَّنِي أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ، أُنَاشِدُكُمْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِجَمِيعِكُمْ صَوْتٌ وَاحِدٌ وَأَنْ لَا يَكُونَ بَيْنَكُمْ أَيُّ انْقِسَامٍ. وَإِنَّمَا كُونُوا جَمِيعاً مُوَحَّدِي الْفِكْرِ وَالرَّأْيِ. 11 فَقَدْ بَلَغَنِي عَنْكُمْ، يَا إِخْوَتِي، عَلَى لِسَانِ عَائِلَةِ خُلُوِي، أَنَّ بَيْنَكُمْ خِلافَاتٍ. 12 أَعْنِي أَنَّ وَاحِداً مِنْكُمْ يَقُولُ: «أَنَا مَعَ بُولُسَ» وَآخَرُ: «أَنَا مَعَ أَبُلُّوسَ»، وَآخَرُ: «أَنَا مَعَ بُطْرُسَ»، وَآخَرُ: «أَنَا مَعَ الْمَسِيحِ». 13 فَهَلْ تَجَزَّأَ الْمَسِيحُ؟ أَمْ أَنَّ بُولُسَ صُلِبَ لأَجْلِكُمْ، أَوْ بِاسْمِ بُولُسَ تَعَمَّدْتُمْ؟ 14 أَشْكُرُ اللهَ لأَنِّي لَمْ أُعَمِّدْ مِنْكُمْ أَحَداً غَيْرَ كِرِيسْبُسَ وَغَايُوسَ، 15 حَتَّى لَا يَقُولَ أَحَدٌ إِنَّكُمْ بِاسْمِي تَعَمَّدْتُمْ. 16 وَمَعَ أَنِّي عَمَّدْتُ أَيْضاً عَائِلَةَ اسْتِفَانَاسَ، فَلا أَذْكُرُ أَنِّي عَمَّدْتُ أَحَداً غَيْرَهُمْ. 17 فَإِنَّ الْمَسِيحَ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي لَا لأُعَمِّدَ، بَلْ لأُبَشِّرَ بِالإِنْجِيلِ، غَيْرَ مُعْتَمِدٍ عَلَى حِكْمَةِ الْكَلامِ، لِئَلّا يَصِيرَ صَلِيبُ الْمَسِيحِ كَأَنَّهُ بِلا نَفْعٍ.

صليب المسيح، حكمة الله وقدرته

18 لأَنَّ الْبِشَارَةَ بِالصَّلِيبِ جَهَالَةٌ عِنْدَ الْهَالِكِينَ؛ وَأَمَّا عِنْدَنَا، نَحْنُ الْمُخَلَّصِينَ، فَهِيَ قُدْرَةُ اللهِ. 19 فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ كُتِبَ: «سَأُبِيدُ حِكْمَةَ الْحُكَمَاءِ وَأُزِيلُ فَهْمَ الْفُهَمَاءِ!» 20 إِذَنْ، أَيْنَ الْحَكِيمُ؟ وَأَيْنَ الْبَاحِثُ؟ وَأَيْنَ الْمُجَادِلُ فِي هَذَا الزَّمَانِ؟ أَلَمْ يُظْهِرِ اللهُ حِكْمَةَ هَذَا الْعَالَمِ جَهَالَةً؟ 21 فَبِمَا أَنَّ الْعَالَمَ، فِي حِكْمَةِ اللهِ، لَمْ يَعْرِفِ اللهَ عَنْ طَرِيقِ الْحِكْمَةِ، فَقَدْ سُرَّ اللهُ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَ بِجَهَالَةِ الْبِشَارَةِ الَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ. 22 إِذْ إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ يَطْلُبُونَ آيَاتٍ، وَالْيُونَانِيِّينَ يَبْحَثُونَ عَنِ الْحِكْمَةِ. 23 وَلكِنَّنَا نَحْنُ نُبَشِّرُ بِالْمَسِيحِ مَصْلُوباً، مِمَّا يُشَكِّلُ عَائِقاً عِنْدَ الْيَهُودِ وَجَهَالَةً عِنْدَ الأُمَمِ؛ 24 وَأَمَّا عِنْدَ الْمَدْعُوِّينَ، سَوَاءٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ أَوِ الْيُونَانِيِّينَ، فَإِنَّ الْمَسِيحَ هُوَ قُدْرَةُ اللهِ وَحِكْمَةُ اللهِ. 25 ذَلِكَ لأَنَّ «جَهَالَةَ» اللهِ أَحْكَمُ مِنَ الْبَشَرِ، وَ«ضَعْفَ» اللهِ أَقْوَى مِنَ الْبَشَرِ. 26 فَاتَّخِذُوا الْعِبْرَةَ مِنْ دَعْوَتِكُمْ أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ: فَلَيْسَ بَيْنَكُمْ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الْحُكَمَاءِ حِكْمَةً بَشَرِيَّةً، وَلا كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الْمُقْتَدِرِينَ، وَلا كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ النُّبَلاءِ. 27 بَلْ إِنَّ اللهَ قَدِ اخْتَارَ مَا هُوَ جَاهِلٌ فِي الْعَالَمِ لِيُخْجِلَ الْحُكَمَاءَ. وَقَدِ اخْتَارَ اللهُ مَا هُوَ ضَعِيفٌ فِي الْعَالَمِ لِيُخْجِلَ الْمُقْتَدِرِينَ. 28 وَقَدِ اخْتَارَ اللهُ مَا كَانَ فِي الْعَالَمِ وَضِيعاً وَمُحْتَقَراً وَعَدِيمَ الشَّأْنِ، لِيُزِيلَ مَالَهُ شَأْنٌ، 29 حَتَّى لَا يَفْتَخِرَ أَيُّ بَشَرٍ أَمَامَ اللهِ. 30 وَبِفَضْلِ اللهِ صَارَ لَكُمْ مَقَامٌ فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ الَّذِي جُعِلَ لَنَا حِكْمَةً مِنَ اللهِ وَبِرّاً وَقَدَاسَةً وَفِدَاءً، 31 حَتَّى إِنَّ مَنِ افْتَخَرَ، فَلْيَفْتَخِرْ بِالرَّبِّ، كَمَا قَالَ الْكِتَابُ.

Greeting

1 Paul, called by the will of God to be an apostle of Christ Jesus, and our brother Sosthenes, 2 To the church of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints together with all those who in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours: 3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Thanksgiving

4 I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus, 5 that in every way you were enriched in him in all speech and all knowledge— 6 even as the testimony about Christ was confirmed among you— 7 so that you are not lacking in any gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 8 who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Divisions in the Church

10 I appeal to you, brothers,* by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment. 11 For it has been reported to me by Chloe’s people that there is quarreling among you, my brothers. 12 What I mean is that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” or “I follow Apollos,” or “I follow Cephas,” or “I follow Christ.” 13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 14 I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15 so that no one may say that you were baptized in my name. 16 (I did baptize also the household of Stephanas. Beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized anyone else.) 17 For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

Christ the Wisdom and Power of God

18 For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart.” 20 Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach* to save those who believe. 22 For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 For consider your calling, brothers: not many of you were wise according to worldly standards,* not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. 27 But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; 28 God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, 29 so that no human being* might boast in the presence of God. 30 And because of him* you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, 31 so that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”
