أُرِيدُ رَحْمَةً لا ذَبِيْحَة! فَإنِّي مَا جِئْتُ لأَدْعُوَ الأَبْرَارَ بَلِ الخَطَأَة/I desire mercy, not sacrifice. For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners
I desire mercy, not sacrifice. For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 09/09-13/:”As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax booth; and he said to him, ‘Follow me.’ And he got up and followed him. And as he sat at dinner in the house, many tax-collectors and sinners came and were sitting with him and his disciples. When the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, ‘Why does your teacher eat with tax-collectors and sinners?’But when he heard this, he said, ‘Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Go and learn what this means, “I desire mercy, not sacrifice.” For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners.’”
فَنْحْنُ لَسْنَا كَالكَثِيرِينَ الَّذينَ يُتَاجِرُونَ بِكَلِمَةِ ٱلله، بَلْ إِنَّنَا بِإِخْلاص، ومِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلله، وفي حَضْرَةِ ٱلله، في المَسِيحِ نَتَكَلَّم
رسالة القدّيس بولس الثانية إلى أهل قورنتس02/من12حتى17/:”يا إخوَتِي، لَمَّا وَصَلْتُ إِلى تُرْوَاسَ لِلتَّبْشِيرِ بإِنْجِيلِ المَسِيح، وٱنْفَتَحَ لي بَابٌ في الرَّبّ، لَمْ تَطْمَئِنَّ نَفْسِي، لأَنِّي لَمْ أَجِدْ طِيطُسَ أَخِي، فَوَدَّعْتُ الإِخْوَةَ وَخَرَجْتُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلى مَقْدُونِيَة. فَٱلشُّكْرُ للهِ الَّذي يَطُوفُ بِنَا عَلى الدَّوَامِ في مَوْكِبِ النَّصْرِ بِالمَسِيح، ويَنْشُرُ بِنَا رَائِحَةَ مَعْرِفَتِهِ الطَيِّبَةَ في كُلِّ مَكَان، لأَنَّنَا للهِ نَفْحَةُ المَسِيحِ الطَّيِّبَة، لِلَّذِينَ يَخْلُصُونَ ولِلَّذِينَ يَهْلِكُون: لِهؤُلاءِ نَفْحَةٌ تَزِيدُهُم مَوْتًا عَلى مَوْت، ولأُولئِكَ نَفْحَةٌ تَزِيدُهُم حَيَاةً عَلى حَيَاة! ومَنْ تُرَاهُ أَهْلٌ لِذلِكَ؟ فَنْحْنُ لَسْنَا كَالكَثِيرِينَ الَّذينَ يُتَاجِرُونَ بِكَلِمَةِ ٱلله، بَلْ إِنَّنَا بِإِخْلاص، ومِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلله، وفي حَضْرَةِ ٱلله، في المَسِيحِ نَتَكَلَّم!
For we are not peddlers of God’s word like so many; but in Christ we speak as persons of sincerity, as persons sent from God and standing in his presence
Second Letter to the Corinthians 02/12-17/:”When I came to Troas to proclaim the good news of Christ, a door was opened for me in the Lord; but my mind could not rest because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I said farewell to them and went on to Macedonia.But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads in every place the fragrance that comes from knowing him. For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing; to the one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? For we are not peddlers of God’s word like so many; but in Christ we speak as persons of sincerity, as persons sent from God and standing in his presence.”
