1.Korinther 10 | الكتاب المقدس

العبرة من تاريخ بني إسرائيل

1 فَإِنِّي لَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ يَخْفَى عَلَيْكُمْ، أَيُّهَا الأُخْوَةُ أَنَّ آبَاءَنَا كَانُوا كُلُّهُمْ تَحْتَ السَّحَابَةِ، وَاجْتَازُوا كُلُّهُمْ فِي الْبَحْرِ، 2 فَتَعَمَّدُوا كُلُّهُمْ أَتْبَاعاً لِمُوسَى، فِي السَّحَابَةِ وَفِي الْبَحْرِ، 3 وَأَكَلُوا كُلُّهُمْ طَعَاماً رُوحِيًّا وَاحِداً، 4 وَشَرِبُوا كُلُّهُمْ شَرَاباً رُوحِيًّا وَاحِداً، إِذْ شَرِبُوا مِنْ صَخْرَةٍ رُوحِيَّةٍ تَبِعَتْهُمْ، وَقَدْ كَانَتْ هَذِهِ الصَّخْرَةُ هِيَ الْمَسِيحُ. 5 وَمَعَ ذلِكَ، فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يَرْتَضِ بِأَكْثَرِهِمْ إِذْ طُرِحُوا قَتْلَى فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ. 6 وَإِنَّمَا حَدَثَتْ هَذِهِ الأُمُورُ لِتَكُونَ مِثَالاً لَنَا، حَتَّى لَا نَشْتَهِيَ أُمُوراً شِرِّيرَةً كَمَا اشْتَهَى أُولئِكَ. 7 فَلا تَكُونُوا عَابِدِينَ لِلأَصْنَامِ كَمَا كَانَ بَعْضُهُمْ، كَمَا قَدْ كُتِبَ: «جَلَسَ الشَّعْبُ لِلأَكْلِ وَالشُّرْبِ، ثُمَّ قَامُوا لِلرَّقْصِ وَاللَّهْوِ». 8 وَلا نَرْتَكِبِ الزِّنَا كَمَا فَعَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ، فَسَقَطَ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ ثَلاثَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ أَلْفاً. 9 وَلا نُجَرِّبْ الرَّبَّ كَمَا جَرَّبَهُ بَعْضُهُمْ، فَأَهْلَكَتْهُمُ الْحَيَّاتُ. 10 وَلا تَتَذَمَّرُوا، كَمَا تَذَمَّرَ بَعْضُهُمْ، فَهَلَكُوا عَلَى يَدِ الْمَلاكِ الْمُهْلِكِ. 11 فَهَذِهِ الأُمُورُ كُلُّهَا حَدَثَتْ لَهُمْ لِتَكُونَ مِثَالاً، وَقَدْ كُتِبَتْ إِنْذَاراً لَنَا، نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ انْتَهَتْ إِلَيْنَا أَوَاخِرُ الأَزْمِنَةِ. 12 فَمَنْ تَوَهَّمَ أَنَّهُ صَامِدٌ، فَلْيَحْذَرْ أَنْ يَسْقُطَ. 13 لَمْ يُصِبْكُمْ مِنَ التَّجَارِبِ إِلّا مَا هُوَ بَشَرِيٌّ. وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ أَمِينٌ وَجَدِيرٌ بِالثِّقَةِ، فَلا يَدَعُكُمْ تُجَرَّبُونَ فَوْقَ مَا تُطِيقُونَ، بَلْ يُدَبِّرُ لَكُمْ مَعَ التَّجْرِبَةِ سَبِيلَ الْخُرُوجِ مِنْهَا لِتُطِيقُوا احْتِمَالَهَا.

أعياد الأوثان والعشاء الرباني

14 لِذَلِكَ، يَا أَحِبَّائِي، اهْرُبُوا مِنْ عِبَادَةِ الأَصْنَامِ. 15 إِنِّي أُكَلِّمُكُمْ كَلامِي لأَذْكِيَاءَ: فَاحْكُمُوا أَنْتُمْ فِي مَا أَقُولُ. 16 أَلَيْسَتْ كَأْسُ الْبَرَكَةِ الَّتِي نُبَارِكُهَا هِيَ شَرِكَةُ دَمِ الْمَسِيحِ؟ أَوَ لَيْسَ رَغِيفُ الْخُبْزِ الَّذِي نَكْسِرُهُ هُوَ الاشْتِرَاكُ فِي جَسَدِ الْمَسِيحِ؟ 17 فَإِنَّنَا نَحْنُ الْكَثِيرِينَ رَغِيفٌ وَاحِدٌ، أَيْ جَسَدٌ وَاحِدٌ، لأَنَّنَا جَمِيعاً نَشْتَرِكُ فِي الرَّغِيفِ الْوَاحِدِ. 18 انْظُرُوا إِلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ بِاعْتِبَارِهِ بَشَراً: أَمَا يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ آكِلِي الذَّبَائِحِ اشْتِرَاكُهُمْ فِي الْمَذْبَحِ؟ 19 فَمَاذَا أَعْنِي إِذَنْ؟ هَلْ مَا ذُبِحَ لِلصَّنَمِ لَهُ قِيمَةٌ أَوْ أَنَّ الصَّنَمَ لَهُ قِيمَةٌ؟ 20 لا، بَلْ أَنَّ مَا يَذْبَحُهُ الْوَثَنِيُّونَ فَإِنَّمَا يَذْبَحُونَهُ لِلشَّيَاطِينِ وَلَيْسَ لِلهِ. وَإِنِّي لَا أُرِيدُ لَكُمْ أَنْ تَكُونُوا مُشْتَرِكِينَ مَعَ الشَّيَاطِينِ. 21 فَلا تَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ تَشْرَبُوا كَأْسَ الرَّبِّ وَكَأْسَ الشَّيَاطِينِ مَعاً، وَلا أَنْ تَشْتَرِكُوا فِي مَائِدَةِ الرَّبِّ وَمَائِدَةِ الشَّيَاطِينِ مَعاً، 22 أَمْ نُحَاوِلُ إِثَارَةَ غَيْرَةَ الرَّبِّ؟ أَوَ نَحْنُ أَقْوَى مِنْهُ؟

حرية المؤمن

23 كُلُّ شَيْءٍ حَلالٌ، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ يَنْفَعُ. كَلُّ شَيْءٍ حَلالٌ، وَلكِنْ لَيْسَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ يَبْنِي. 24 فَلا يَسْعَ أَحَدٌ إِلَى مَصْلَحَةِ نَفْسِهِ، بَلْ إِلَى مَصْلَحَةِ غَيْرِهِ! 25 فَكُلُّ مَا يُبَاعُ فِي السُّوقِ، لَكُمْ أَنْ تَأْكُلُوا مِنْهُ، دُونَمَا اسْتِفْهَامٍ لإِرْضَاءِ الضَّمِيرِ. 26 فَإِنَّ الأَرْضَ وَكُلَّ مَا فِيهَا لِلرَّبِّ. 27 أَمَّا إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ غَيْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، وَأَرَدْتُمْ أَنْ تُرَافِقُوهُ، فَكُلُوا مِنْ كُلِّ مَا يُقَدِّمُهُ لَكُمْ، دُونَمَا اسْتِفْهَامٍ لإِرْضَاءِ الضَّمِيرِ. 28 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ قَالَ لَكُمْ أَحَدٌ: «هَذِهِ ذَبِيحَةٌ مُقَدَّمَةٌ لإِلهٍ»، فَلا تَأْكُلُوا مِنْهَا مُرَاعَاةً لِمَنْ أَخْبَرَكُمْ وَإِرْضَاءً لِلضَّمِيرِ. 29 وَبِقَوْلِي«الضَّمِيرِ» لَا أَعْنِي ضَمِيرَكَ أَنْتَ بَلْ ضَمِيرَ الآخَرِ. وَلِمَاذَا يَتَحَكَّمُ ضَمِيرُ غَيْرِي بِحُرِّيَّتِي؟ 30 وَمَادُمْتُ أَتَنَاوَلُ شَيْئاً وَأَشْكُرُ عَلَيْهِ، فَلِمَاذَا يُقَالُ فِيَّ سُوءٌ لأَجْلِ مَا أَشْكُرُ عَلَيْهِ؟ 31 فَإِذَا أَكَلْتُمْ أَوْ شَرِبْتُمْ أَوْ مَهْمَا فَعَلْتُمْ، فَافْعَلُوا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ لِتَمْجِيدِ اللهِ. 32 لَا تَضَعُوا عَائِقاً يُسَبِّبُ السُّقُوطَ لأَحَدٍ، سَوَاءٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ أَمِ الْيُونَانِيِّينَ أَمْ كَنِيسَةِ اللهِ. 33 فَهكَذَا أَنَا أَيْضاً أَسْعَى لإِرْضَاءِ الْجَمِيعِ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، وَلا أَهْتَمُّ بِمَصْلَحَتِي الْخَاصَّةِ، بَلْ بِمَصْلَحَةِ الْكَثِيرِينَ، لِكَيْ يَخْلُصُوا.

Warnings from Israel’s history

1 For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers and sisters, that our ancestors were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea. 2 They were all baptised into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 3 They all ate the same spiritual food 4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. 5 Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered in the wilderness. 6 Now these things occurred as examples to keep us from setting our hearts on evil things as they did. 7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written: ‘The people sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in revelry.’ 8 We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did – and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died. 9 We should not test Christ,* as some of them did – and were killed by snakes. 10 And do not grumble, as some of them did – and were killed by the destroying angel. 11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the culmination of the ages has come. 12 So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! 13 No temptation* has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted* beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,* he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

Idol feasts and the Lord’s Supper

14 Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry. 15 I speak to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say. 16 Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? 17 Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for we all share the one loaf. 18 Consider the people of Israel: do not those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar? 19 Do I mean then that food sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything? 20 No, but the sacrifices of pagans are offered to demons, not to God, and I do not want you to be participants with demons. 21 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot have a part in both the Lord’s table and the table of demons. 22 Are we trying to arouse the Lord’s jealousy? Are we stronger than he?

The believer’s freedom

23 ‘I have the right to do anything,’ you say – but not everything is beneficial. ‘I have the right to do anything’ – but not everything is constructive. 24 No-one should seek their own good, but the good of others. 25 Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience, 26 for, ‘The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.’ 27 If an unbeliever invites you to a meal and you want to go, eat whatever is put before you without raising questions of conscience. 28 But if someone says to you, ‘This has been offered in sacrifice,’ then do not eat it, both for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience. 29 I am referring to the other person’s conscience, not yours. For why is my freedom being judged by another’s conscience? 30 If I take part in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of something I thank God for? 31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 32 Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God – 33 even as I try to please everyone in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.
