ያላመኑ ከተሞች

ማቴዎስ 11:20-24 (አማ 54)

በዚያን ጊዜ የሚበዙ ተአምራት የተደረገባቸውን ከተማዎች ንስሐ ስላልገቡ ሊነቅፋቸው ጀመረ እንዲህም አለ፦ ወዮልሽ ኮራዚ፤ ወዮልሽ ቤተ ሳይዳ፤ በእናንተ የተደረገው ተአምራት በጢሮስና በሲዶና ተደርጎ ቢሆን፥ ማቅ ለብሰው አመድም ነስንሰው ከብዙ ጊዜ በፊት ንስሐ በገቡ ነበርና። ነገር ግን እላችኋለሁ፥ በፍርድ ቀን ከእናንተ ይልቅ ለጢሮስና ለሲዶና ይቀልላቸዋል። አንቺም ቅፍርናሆም፥ እስከ ሰማይ ከፍ አልሽን? ወደ ሲኦል ትወርጃለሽ፤ በአንቺ የተደረገው ተአምራት በሰዶም ተደርጎ ቢሆን፥ እስከ ዛሬ በኖረች ነበርና። ነገር ግን እላችኋለሁ፥ በፍርድ ቀን ከአንቺ ይልቅ ለሰዶም አገር ይቀልላታል።

Matthew 11:20-24 (ESV)

Then he began to denounce the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent. “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.  But I tell you, it will be more bearable on the day of judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.  And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You will be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. But I tell you that it will be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you.”
