And at that time, Jesus spoke and said: “I praise You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these matters from the wise and the understanding, and have revealed them to the children!”

وَتَكَلَّمَ عِيسَى فِي ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ وَقَالَ: ”أَحْمَدُكَ يَا أَبِي، يَا رَبَّ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّكَ أَخْفَيْتَ هَذِهِ الْأُمُورَ عَنِ الْحُكَمَاءِ وَالْعُلَمَاءِ، وَكَشَفْتَهَا لِلْبُسَطَاءِ.“

Wa‑takallama ʿĪsā fī dhālika al‑waqti wa qāla: “Aḥmaduka yā Abī, yā Rabb as‑samāʾi wa al‑arḍi, li’anna‑ka akhfaita hādhihi al‑umūr ʿani al‑ḥukamāʾi wa al‑ʿulamāʾi, wa kashaf­tahā lil‑busṭāʾi.”

ثُمّ تَوَجَّهَ سَيِّدُنا عيسى (سلامُهُ علينا) إلى اللهِ داعيًا: "اللهُمّ أيُّها الأبُ الصَّمَدُ، أحمَدُكَ يا رَبَّ السَّماواتِ والأرضِ، فقد أخفَيتَ سِرَّ رِسالتي عنِ الّذينَ يَحسَبونَ أنّهم حُكَماءُ وأصحابُ عِلمٍ، وكَشَفتَها لهؤلاءِ البُسَطاءِ المُتَواضِعينَ مِن عِبادِكَ!"

Thumma tawajjaha Sayyidunā ʿĪsā (salāmu‑hu ʿalaynā) ilā Allāhi dāʿiyan: “Allāhumm ayyuhā al‑Abu al‑Ṣamad, Aḥmaduka yā Rabb as‑samāwāti wa al‑arḍi, faqad akhfaita sirra risālati ʿani alladhīna yaḥsabūna annahum ḥukamāʾu wa aṣḥābu ʿilmin, wa kashaf­tahā lihā’ulā’i al‑busṭāʾi al‑mutawāḍiʿīna min ʿibādika!”

Then our Master Jesus (peace be upon him) turned to God, calling: “O Allah, O Eternal Father, I praise You, O Lord of the heavens and the earth, for You have hidden the secret of my message from those who consider themselves wise and knowledgeable, and have revealed it to these humble simple ones among Your servants!”

Then he went a little forward and fell on his face, and was praying, saying: “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me, but not as I will, but as You will.”

Kitāb al-ḥayāh

وَابْتَعَدَ عَنْهُمْ قَلِيلاً وَارْتَمَى عَلَى وَجْهِهِ يُصَلِّي، قَائِلاً: «يَا أَبِي، إِنْ كَانَ مُمْكِناً، فَلْتَعْبُرْ عَنِّي هَذِهِ الْكَأْسُ: وَلَكِنْ، لَا كَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنَا، بَلْ كَمَا تُرِيدُ أَنْتَ!»

ثُمَّ ابْتَعَدَ قَلِيلًا، وَسَجَدَ وَجَبْهَتُهُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَصَلَّى وَقَالَ: ”يَا أَبِي، إِنْ أَمْكَنَ، أَبْعِدْ عَنِّي هَذِهِ الْكَأْسَ. لَكِنْ لَا كَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنَا، بَلْ مَا تُرِيدُ أَنْتَ.“

Thumma ibtaʿada qalīlan, wa sajada wa jabhatu-hu ilā al‑arḍi wa ṣallā wa qāla: “Yā Abī, in amkana, abʿid ʿannī hādhihi al‑kāsu. Lākin lā kamā urīdu anā, bal mā turīdu anta.”

Then he withdrew a little, and prostrated his forehead to the ground and prayed, saying: “My Father, if it is possible, remove this cup from me; but not as I will, but as You will.”

The Good News Arabic (or at-tarjamah al-mushtarakah)

واَبتَعَدَ عنهُم قَليلًا واَرتَمى على وجهِهِ وصلَّى فَقالَ: ”إنْ أمكَنَ يا أبي، فلْتَعبُرْ عنِّي هذِهِ الكأسُ. ولكن لا كما أنا أُريدُ، بل كما أنتَ تُريدُ“.

Wa‑ibtaʿada ʿanhum qalīlan wa irtamā ʿalā wajhihi wa ṣallā fa qāla: “In amkana yā Abī, faltuʿbura ʿannī hādhihi al‑kāsu. Walākin lā kamā anā urīdu, bal kamā anta turīdu.”

And he withdrew from them a little and threw himself on his face and prayed, saying: “If it is possible, my Father, let this cup pass from me; but not as I will, but as You will.”

The True Meaning of the Gospel of Christ (al-ma‘nā aṣ-ṣaḥīḥ li’injīl al-masīḥ)

ثُمّ ابتَعَدَ عَنهُم وخَرَّ على الأرضِ ساجِدًا مُصَلّيًا مُناجيًا رَبَّهُ: "اللهُمّ يا أبي الصَّمَدُ، ألا أبعَدتَ عنّي كأسَ الآلامِ، ولكنْ ليَكُن ما تُريدُ لا ما أُريدُ".

Thumma ibtaʿada ʿanhum wa kharra ʿalā al‑arḍi sājidan muṣalliyan munājiyan Rabbahu: “Allāhumm yā Abī al‑Ṣamad, alā abʿadta ʿannī kāsa al‑ālam, walākin li‑yakun mā turīdu lā mā urīdu.”

Then he withdrew from them and fell on the ground, prostrating, praying, and communing with his Lord, saying: “O Allah, my Eternal Father, did You not remove from me the cup of suffering? But let what You will be done, not what I will.”

NIV

He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

كَمَا فِي ٱلرَّسَائِلِ كُلِّهَا أَيْضًا، مُتَكَلِّمًا فِيهَا عَنْ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ، ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا أَشْيَاءُ عَسِرَةُ ٱلْفَهْمِ، يُحَرِّفُهَا غَيْرُ ٱلْعُلَمَاءِ وَغَيْرُ ٱلثَّابِتِينَ، كَبَاقِي ٱلْكُتُبِ أَيْضًا، لِهَلَاكِ أَنْفُسِهِمْ.

As in all the letters, speaking in them about these matters, in which are things difficult to understand, those not knowledgeable and not steadfast distort them, as with the rest of the Scriptures also, to their own destruction.

Kitāb al-ḥayāh

وَمَا كَتَبَهُ فِي رِسَالَتِهِ إِلَيْكُمْ، يُوَافِقُ مَا كَتَبَهُ فِي بَاقِي رَسَائِلِهِ. وَفِي تِلْكَ الرَّسَائِلِ كُلِّهَا أُمُورٌ صَعْبَةُ الْفَهْمِ، يُحَرِّفُهَا الْجُهَّالُ وَغَيْرُ الرَّاسِخِينَ فِي الْحَقِّ، كَمَا يُحَرِّفُونَ غَيْرَهَا أَيْضاً مِنَ الْكِتَابَاتِ الْمُوْحَى بِها، فَيَجْلِبُونَ الْهَلاكَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ.

And what he wrote in his letter to you corresponds to what he wrote in his other letters. And in all those letters are matters difficult to understand, which the ignorant and unsteady in the truth distort, just as they also distort others of the Scriptures inspired by God, bringing destruction upon themselves.

The Sharif (or al-injīl ash-sharīf)

وَهَذَا هُوَ مَا يَكْتُبُهُ فِي كُلِّ رَسَائِلِهِ، عِنْدَمَا يَتَحَدَّثُ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمُورِ. وَتُوجَدُ بَعْضُ الْأَشْيَاءِ فِي رَسَائِلِهِ صَعْبَةٌ عَلَى الْفَهْمِ، يُفَسِّرُهَا الْجُهَلَاءُ وَالضُّعَفَاءُ تَفْسِيرًا خَاطِئًا، كَمَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِبَاقِي الْكِتَابِ. وَبِذَلِكَ يَجْلِبُونَ الْهَلَاكَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ.

And this is what he writes in all his letters, when he speaks about these matters. And some things in his letters are difficult to understand, which the ignorant and weak interpret wrongly, just as they do with the rest of the Scriptures. And in this way they bring destruction upon themselves.

The Good News Arabic (or at-tarjamah al-mushtarakah)

كما هِيَ الحالُ في جميعِ رَسائِلِهِ الّتي تكَلَّمَ فيها على هذِهِ المَسائِلِ. فورَدَت فيها أُمورٌ غامِضَةٌ يُحَرِّفُها الجُهّالُ وضُعَفاءُ النُّفوسِ، كما يَفعَلونَ في سائِرِ الكُتُبِ المُقَدَّسَةِ، لِهَلاكِ نُفوسِهِم.

As it is in all his letters in which he spoke about these matters, there appear in them obscure matters which the ignorant and weak of soul distort, just as they do in the rest of the holy Scriptures, bringing destruction upon their souls.

The True Meaning of the Gospel of Christ (al-ma‘nā aṣ-ṣaḥīḥ li’injīl al-masīḥ)

حينَ كَتَبَ عن هذِهِ المَسائلِ في كُلِّ رَسائِلِهِ، ولقد جاءَت فيها أُمورٌ يَصعُبُ فَهمُها ويُحَرِّفُ الجَهَلةُ وغَيرُ الرّاسِخينَ تَفسيرَها، كَما يَفعَلونَ في سائِرِ الكُتُبِ المُقَدَّسةِ، وهذا سيُؤدِّي بِهِم إلى الهَلاكِ.

When he wrote about these matters in all his letters, there came in them matters difficult to understand, which the ignorant and unsteady distort in their interpretation, just as they do in the rest of the holy Scriptures, and this will lead them to destruction.
