Matthäus 17 | الكتاب المقدس

التجلي

1 وَبَعْدَ سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ، أَخَذَ يَسُوعُ بُطْرُسَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَيُوحَنَّا أَخَاهُ، وَصَعِدَ بِهِمْ عَلَى انْفِرَادٍ إِلَى جَبَلٍ عَالٍ، 2 وَتَجَلَّى أَمَامَهُمْ، فَشَعَّ وَجْهُهُ كَالشَّمْسِ، وَصَارَتْ ثِيَابُهُ بَيْضَاءَ كَالنُّورِ. 3 وَإذَا مُوسَى وَإِيلِيَّا قَدْ ظَهَرَا لَهُمْ يَتَحَدَّثَانِ مَعَهُ. 4 فَبَدَأَ بُطْرُسُ يَقُولُ لِيَسُوعَ: «يَا رَبُّ، مَا أَحْسَنَ أَنْ نَبْقَى هُنَا! فَإِذَا شِئْتَ، أَنْصُبُ هُنَا ثَلاثَ خِيَامٍ: وَاحِدَةً لَكَ، وَوَاحِدَةً لِمُوسَى، وَوَاحِدَةً لإِيلِيَّا». 5 وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ، إِذَا سَحَابَةٌ مُنِيرَةٌ قَدْ ظَلَّلَتْهُمْ، وَجَاءَ صَوْتٌ مِنَ السَّحَابَةِ قَائِلاً: «هَذَا هُوَ ابْنِي الْحَبِيبُ الَّذِي سُرِرْتُ بِهِ كُلَّ سُرُورٍ. لَهُ اسْمَعُوا!» 6 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ التَّلامِيذُ الصَّوْتَ، وَقَعُوا عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ مُرْتَعِبِينَ جِدّاً. 7 فَاقْتَرَبَ مِنْهُمْ يَسُوعُ وَلَمَسَهُمْ وَقَالَ: «انْهَضُوا وَلا تَرْتَعِبُوا!» 8 فَرَفَعُوا أَنْظَارَهُمْ، فَلَمْ يَرَوْا إِلّا يَسُوعَ وَحْدَهُ. 9 وَفِيمَا هُمْ نَازِلُونَ مِنَ الْجَبَلِ، أَوْصَاهُمْ يَسُوعُ قَائِلاً: «لا تُخْبِرُوا أَحَداً بِمَا رَأَيْتُمْ حَتَّى يَقُومَ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ». 10 فَسَأَلَهُ تَلامِيذُهُ: «لِمَاذَا إِذَنْ يَقُولُ الْكَتَبَةُ إِنَّ إِيلِيَّا لابُدَّ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ أَوَّلاً؟» 11 فَأَجَابَهُمْ قَائِلاً: «حَقّاً، إِنَّ إِيلِيَّا يَأْتِي أَوَّلاً وَيُصْلِحُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ. 12 عَلَى أَنِّي أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: قَدْ جَاءَ إِيلِيَّا، وَلَمْ يَعْرِفُوهُ، بَلْ فَعَلُوا بِهِ كُلَّ مَا شَاءُوا. كَذَلِكَ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ أَيْضاً عَلَى وَشْكِ أَنْ يَتَأَلَّمَ عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ». 13 عِنْدَئِذٍ فَهِمَ التَّلامِيذُ أَنَّهُ كَلَّمَهُمْ عَنْ يُوحَنَّا الْمَعْمَدَانِ.

شفاء صبي به شيطان

14 وَلَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلَى الْجَمْعِ، تَقَدَّمَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى يَسُوعَ، وَجَثَا أَمَامَهُ، 15 وَقَالَ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، ارْحَمِ ابْنِي لأَنَّهُ مُصَابٌ بِالصَّرْعِ، وَهُوَ يَتَعَذَّبُ عَذَاباً شَدِيداً. وَكَثِيراً مَا يَسْقُطُ فِي النَّارِ أَوْ فِي الْمَاءِ. 16 وَقَدْ أَحْضَرْتُهُ إِلَى تَلامِيذِكَ، فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِيعُوا أَنْ يَشْفُوهُ». 17 فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ قَائِلاً: «أَيُّهَا الْجِيلُ غَيْرُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَالأَعْوَجُ، إِلَى مَتَى أَبْقَى مَعَكُمْ؟ إِلَى مَتَى أَحْتَمِلُكُمْ؟ أَحْضِرُوهُ إِلَيَّ هُنَا!» 18 وَزَجَرَ يَسُوعُ الشَّيْطَانَ، فَخَرَجَ مِنَ الصَّبِيِّ، وَشُفِيَ الصَّبِيُّ مِنْ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ. 19 ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ التَّلامِيذُ إِلَى يَسُوعَ عَلَى انْفِرَادٍ وَسَأَلُوهُ: «لِمَاذَا عَجَزْنَا نَحْنُ أَنْ نَطْرُدَ الشَّيْطَانَ؟» 20 أَجَابَهُمْ: «لِقِلَّةِ إِيمَانِكُمْ. فَالْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لَوْ كَانَ لَكُمْ إِيمَانٌ مِثْلُ بِزْرَةِ خَرْدَلٍ، لَكُنْتُمْ تَقُولُونَ لِهَذَا الْجَبَلِ: اِنْتَقِلْ مِنْ هُنَا إِلَى هُنَاكَ، فَيَنْتَقِلُ، وَلا يَسْتَحِيلُ عَلَيْكُمْ شَيْءٌ. 21 أَمَّا هَذَا النَّوْعُ مِنَ الشَّيَاطِينِ، فَلا يُطْرَدُ إِلّا بِالصَّاللاةِ وَالصَّوْمِ».

يسوع يتنبأ ثانية بموته

22 وَفِيمَا كَانُوا يَتَجَمَّعُونَ فِي الْجَلِيلِ، قَالَ يَسُوعُ لِتَلامِيذِهِ: «اِبْنُ الإِنْسَانِ عَلَى وَشْكِ أَنْ يُسَلَّمَ إِلَى أَيْدِي النَّاسِ، 23 فَيَقْتُلُونَهُ. وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ يُقَامُ». فَحَزِنُوا حُزْناً شَدِيداً.

ضريبة الهيكل

24 وَلَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلَى كَفْرَنَاحُومَ، جَاءَ جُبَاةُ ضَرِيبَةِ الدِّرْهَمَيْنِ لِلْهَيْكَلِ إِلَى بُطْرُسَ، وَقَالُوا: «أَلا يُؤَدِّي مُعَلِّمُكُمُ الدِّرْهَمَيْنِ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «بَلَى!» 25 وَمَا إِنْ دَخَلَ بُطْرُسُ الْبَيْتَ، حَتَّى سَأَلَهُ يَسُوعُ: «مَا رَأْيُكَ يَا سِمْعَانُ: مِمَّنْ يَسْتَوْفِي مُلُوكُ الأَرْضِ الْجِزْيَةَ أَوِ الضَّرِيبَةَ؟ أَمِنْ أَبْنَاءِ بِلادِهِمْ، أَمْ مِنَ الأَجَانِبِ؟» 26 أَجَابَ بُطْرُسُ: «مِنَ الأَجَانِبِ». فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «إِذَنِ الأَبْنَاءُ أَحْرَارٌ، 27 وَلكِنْ لِكَيْ لَا نَضَعَ لَهُمْ عَثْرَةً، اذْهَبْ إِلَى الْبُحَيْرَةِ، وَأَلْقِ صِنَّارَةَ الصَّيْدِ؛ وَأَمْسِكِ السَّمَكَةَ الَّتِي تَطْلُعُ أَوَّلاً، ثُمَّ افْتَحْ فَمَهَا تَجِدْ فِيهِ قِطْعَةَ نَقْدٍ بِقِيمَةِ أَرْبَعَةِ دَرَاهِمَ، فَخُذْهَا وَادْفَعْ الضَّرِيبَةَ عَنِّي وَعَنْكَ!»

The transfiguration

1 After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. 2 There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. 3 Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus. 4 Peter said to Jesus, ‘Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters – one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.’ 5 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!’ 6 When the disciples heard this, they fell face down to the ground, terrified. 7 But Jesus came and touched them. ‘Get up,’ he said. ‘Don’t be afraid.’ 8 When they looked up, they saw no-one except Jesus. 9 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, ‘Don’t tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.’ 10 The disciples asked him, ‘Why then do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?’ 11 Jesus replied, ‘To be sure, Elijah comes and will restore all things. 12 But I tell you, Elijah has already come, and they did not recognise him, but have done to him everything they wished. In the same way the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.’ 13 Then the disciples understood that he was talking to them about John the Baptist.

Jesus heals a demon-possessed boy

14 When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt before him. 15 ‘Lord, have mercy on my son,’ he said. ‘He has seizures and is suffering greatly. He often falls into the fire or into the water. 16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.’ 17 ‘You unbelieving and perverse generation,’ Jesus replied, ‘how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.’ 18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed at that moment. 19 Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, ‘Why couldn’t we drive it out?’ 20 He replied, ‘Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, “Move from here to there,” and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.’*

Jesus predicts his death a second time

22 When they came together in Galilee, he said to them, ‘The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men. 23 They will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised to life.’ And the disciples were filled with grief.

The temple tax

24 After Jesus and his disciples arrived in Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma temple tax came to Peter and asked, ‘Doesn’t your teacher pay the temple tax?’ 25 ‘Yes, he does,’ he replied. When Peter came into the house, Jesus was the first to speak. ‘What do you think, Simon?’ he asked. ‘From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes – from their own children or from others?’ 26 ‘From others,’ Peter answered. ‘Then the children are exempt,’ Jesus said to him. 27 ‘But so that we may not cause offence, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.’
