Lima Puluh Ribu Kesalahan (?) - Adakah Bible itu Firman Tuhan? | Quran Course

Sebaik sahaja dia duduk, saya mengeluarkan salinan penuh apa yang anda lihat di bawah. Sambil menunjuk kepada risalah di bahagian atas halaman, saya bertanya, "Ini kepunyaan awak ke?" Dia segera mengenali kepunyaannya sendiri. Saya berkata, "Ia tertulis: 50 000 Kesilapan dalam Bible, adakah itu benar?" "Apa tu!" dia berseru. Saya mengulanginya, "Saya kata, ia tertulis bahawa terdapat 50 000 kesilapan dalam Bible awak." "Dari mana awak dapat itu?" dia bertanya. (Ini diterbitkan 23 tahun yang lalu, ketika dia mungkin masih kanak-kanak kecil.) Saya berkata, "Ketepikan dulu cakap berbunga-bunga itu — ini kepunyaan awak ke?" sambil sekali lagi menunjuk kepada risalah itu — "Awake!" Dia berkata, "Boleh saya tengok?" "Sudah tentu," kata saya. Saya menyerahkan halaman itu kepadanya. Dia mula meneliti. Mereka (Saksi-Saksi Yehuwa) dilatih. Mereka menghadiri kelas lima kali seminggu di "Dewan Kerajaan" mereka. Tentulah, mereka merupakan mubaligh yang paling cekap di antara seribu satu mazhab dan denominasi dalam Kristian. Mereka diajar bahawa apabila tersudut, jangan komitkan diri kepada apa-apa, jangan buka mulut. Tunggu Roh Kudus mengilhamkan anda tentang apa yang perlu dikatakan.

As soon as he settled down, I produced the full reproduction of what you see below. Pointing to the monograph at the top of the page, I asked, "Is this your's?" He readily recognized his own. I said, "It says: 50 000 Errors in the Bible, is it true?" "What's that!" he exclaimed. I repeated, "I said, that it says, that there are 50 000 errors in your Bible." "Where did you get that?" He asked. (This was published 23 years ago, when he was perhaps a little nipper) I said, "Leave the fancy talk aside — is this your's?" pointing again to the monograph — "Awake!" He said, "Can I have a look?" "Of course," I said. I handed him the page. He started perusing. They (the Jehovah's Witnesses) are trained. They attend classes five times a week in their "Kingdom Halls." Naturally, they are the fittest missionaries among the thousand -and - one - sects - and - denominations of Christendom. They are taught that when cornered, do not commit yourself to anything, do not open your mouths. Wait for the Holy Ghost to inspire you with what to say.

Saya diam-diam terus memerhatikannya, ketika dia meneliti halaman itu. Tiba-tiba dia mendongak. Dia telah menemuinya. "Roh Kudus" itu telah menggeleteknya. Dia mula berkata, "Artikel itu mengatakan bahawa "kebanyakan daripada kesilapan itu telah dihapuskan." Saya bertanya, "Jika KEBANYAKAN telah dihapuskan, berapa banyak yang tinggal daripada 50000? 5000? 500? 50? Walaupun 50 masih tinggal, adakah anda menganggap kesilapan itu datang daripada Tuhan?" Dia terdiam. Dia memohon diri dengan mencadangkan bahawa dia akan datang lagi bersama beberapa ahli kanan Gerejanya. Itulah hari yang ditunggu-tunggu! Jika saya sudah menyediakan risalah ini, saya akan menawarkannya kepadanya sambil berkata, "Saya ingin membuat satu kebaikan kepada anda, berikan saya nama dan alamat anda, serta nombor telefon anda. Saya akan meminjamkan risalah ini kepada anda — ADAKAH BIBLE ITU FIRMAN TUHAN?" selama 90 hari. Saya mahukan jawapan bertulis!" Jika anda melakukan ini, dan beberapa orang Islam yang lain turut berbuat demikian, mereka dan mubaligh-mubaligh yang lain tidak akan pernah menjejakkan kaki ke pintu anda lagi. Saya percaya penerbitan ini akan terbukti sebagai azimat yang paling berkesan setakat ini. Insha-Allah! "Kultus" Saksi-Saksi Jehovah ini, yang begitu lantang mengecam Trinitarian ortodoks kerana mempermainkan "Firman Tuhan," sebenarnya turut memainkan permainan gimnastik semantik yang sama. Dalam artikel yang dikaji — "50000 KESILAPAN DALAM BIBLE?" — mereka berkata: "mungkin terdapat 50 000 kesilapan . . . kesilapan yang telah menyelinap ke dalam teks Bible . . . 50000 kesilapan yang serius (?) . . . kebanyakan daripada kesilapan yang dipanggil begitu . . . secara keseluruhannya Bible adalah tepat." (?)

I silently kept watching him, while he browsed the page. Suddenly he looked up. He had found it. The "Holy Ghost" had tickled him. He began, "The article says that "most of those errors have been eliminated." I asked "If MOST are eliminated, how many remain out of 50000? 5000? 500? 50? Even if 50 remain, do you attribute those errors to God?" He was speechless. He excused himself by suggesting that he will come again with some senior member of his Church. That will be the day! If I had this booklet ready, I would have offered him, saying — "I would like to do you a favour, give me your name and address, and your telephone number. I will lend you this booklet — IS THE BIBLE GOD'S WORD?" for 90 days. I want a written reply!" If you do this, And a few other Muslims do the same. They and the other missionaries will never darken your doors again. I believe that this publication will prove the most effective talisman to date. Insha-Allah! This "cult" of Jehovah's Witnesses which is so strong in its condemnation of the orthodox Trinitarians, for playing with the "Word of God," is itself playing the same game of semantic gymnastics. In the article under review — "50000 ERRORS IN THE BIBLE?" — they say: "there are probably 50 000 errors . . . errors that have crept into the Bible text . . . 50000 such serious (?) errors… most of those so-called errors... as a whole the Bible is accurate." (?)

Kita tidak mempunyai masa dan ruang untuk membincangkan puluhan ribu kecacatan — sama ada yang besar atau kecil — yang cuba dibetulkan oleh penulis Revised Standard Version (RSV). Kita tinggalkan keistimewaan itu kepada para sarjana Kristian mengenai Bible. Di sini saya akan cuba meninjau secara sepintas lalu sekitar "setengah dozen" perubahan "kecil" tersebut.

We do not have the time and space to go into the tens of thousands of — grave or minor — defects that the authors of the Revised Standard Version (RSV) have attempted to revise. We leave that privilege to the Christian scholars of the Bible. Here I will endeavour to cast just a cursory glance at a "half-a-dozen" or so of those "minor" changes.

"Oleh itu, Tuhan sendiri akan memberikan kamu satu tanda: Lihatlah, seorang PERAWAN akan mengandung dan melahirkan seorang anak lelaki, dan dia akan dinamakan Immanuel."

1. "Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign: Behold, a VIRGIN shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." (Isaiah 7:14 - AV)

"VIRGIN" yang tidak boleh ditinggalkan dalam ayat di atas kini telah digantikan dalam RSV dengan frasa "a young woman", yang merupakan terjemahan yang betul bagi perkataan Ibrani almah. Almah ialah perkataan yang sentiasa terdapat dalam teks Ibrani, dan BUKAN bethulah yang bermaksud VIRGIN. Pembetulan ini hanya terdapat dalam terjemahan bahasa Inggeris, kerana RSV hanya diterbitkan dalam bahasa ini. Bagi orang Afrika dan Afrikaner, orang Arab dan Zulu, malah dalam lebih 1 500 bahasa lain di dunia, orang Kristian terus dipaksa menelan istilah yang salah, "VIRGIN."

The indispensable "VIRGIN" in the above verse has now been replaced in the RSV with the phrase "a young woman," which is the correct translation of the Hebrew word almah. Almah is the word which has occurred all along in the Hebrew text and NOT bethulah which means VIRGIN. This correction is only to be found in the English language translation, as the RSV is only published in this tongue. For the African and the Afrikaner, the Arab and the Zulu, in fact, in the 1 500 other languages of the world, Christians are made to continue to swallow the misnomer "VIRGIN."

Salah satu daripada "kecacatan serius" yang cuba diperbetulkan oleh penulis RSV berkaitan dengan Kenaikan Kristus. Hanya terdapat dua rujukan dalam Injil Kanonik, iaitu Matius, Markus, Lukas dan Yohanes, mengenai peristiwa yang paling menakjubkan dalam agama Kristian — BAHAWA YESUS DIANGKAT KE SYURGA. Kedua-dua rujukan ini terdapat dalam setiap Alkitab dalam setiap bahasa sebelum tahun 1952, iaitu ketika RSV pertama kali diterbitkan. Kedua-dua rujukan tersebut ialah:

One of the most serious of those "grave defects" which the authors of the RSV had tried to rectify concerned the Ascension of Christ. There have been only two references in the Canonical Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and of John to the most stupendous event in Christianity — OF JESUS BEING TAKEN UP INTO HEAVEN. These two references were obtained in every Bible in every language, prior to 1952, when the RSV first appeared. These were:

4a. "Maka Tuhan Yesus, setelah berbicara kepada mereka, DIANGKAT KE SURGA, dan duduk di sebelah kanan Tuhan." (Markus 16:19)

4a. "So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was TAKEN UP INTO HEAVEN, and sat down at the right hand of God." (Mark 16:19)

4b. "Semasa Dia memberkati mereka, Dia berpisah daripada mereka, dan DIANGKAT KE SYURGA." (Lukas 24:51)

4b. "While he blessed them, he parted from them, and was CARRIED UP INTO HEAVEN." (Luke 24:51)

Saya tidak dapat melihat gambar yang dimaksudkan; yang ada hanyalah teks. Namun, pesanan anda ialah teks untuk diterjemahkan, dan saya hanya menterjemahkan teks yang diberikan. Oleh itu, sila tampal teks sebenar yang hendak diterjemahkan, dan saya akan menterjemahkannya ke dalam bahasa Melayu.

Now please look at the image below, which is a photocopy where the quotation 4a above ought to appear. You will be shocked to note that Mark 16 ends at verse 8, and after an embarrassing expanse of blank space the missing verses appear in "small print" as a footnote at the bottom of the page. If you can lay your hands on a RSV 1952, you will find the last six words of 4b above, i.e. "AND WAS CARRIED UP INTO HEAVEN" replaced by a tiny "a" to tell you to see the footnote if you please, where you will find these missing words. Every honest Christian has to admit that he does not consider any footnote in any Bible as the word of God. Why should the paid servants of Christianity consign the mightiest miracle of their religion to a mere footnote?

Para penginjil yang bersemangat dan penginjil Alkitab lambat menyedari gurauan itu. Apabila mereka sedar bahawa batu penjuru khutbah mereka, iaitu KENAIKAN YESUS, telah dilemahkan akibat kajian ilmiah Alkitab Kristian, penerbit RSV sudah pun meraup keuntungan bersih sebanyak 15 000 000 dolar! (Lima belas juta). Golongan propagandis membuat bising besar, dan dengan sokongan dua daripada lima puluh jawatankuasa mazhab, mereka memaksa penerbit memasukkan semula sisipan-sisipan itu ke dalam Firman Tuhan yang "DIILHAMKAN" dalam setiap penerbitan baharu RSV selepas 1952; bahagian yang telah dibuang itu "DIPULIHKAN KEPADA TEKS". Ini adalah permainan lama, sangat lama. Orang Yahudi dan Kristian telah menyunting "Kitab Tuhan" mereka sejak permulaannya. Perbezaan antara mereka dengan pemalsu purba ialah pemalsu purba tidak mengetahui seni menulis "kata pengantar" dan "nota kaki", jika tidak, mereka juga pasti akan memberitahu kita dengan jelas seperti wira moden kita tentang pengubahsuaian mereka, serta alasan-alasan licik mereka untuk menukar wang palsu menjadi emas yang gemerlapan.

The hot-gospellers and the Bible-thumpers were too slow in catching the Joke. By the time they realised that the corner-stone of their preaching — THE ASCENSION OF JESUS — had been undermined as a result of Christian Biblical erudition, the publishers of the RSV had already raked in a net profit of 15 000 000 dollars! (Fifteen Million). The propagandists made a big hue and cry, and with the backing of two denominational committees out of the fifty, forced the Publishers to re-incorporate the interpolations into the "INSPIRED" Word of God in every new publication of the RSV after 1952, the expunged portion was "RESTORED TO THE TEXT." It is an old, old game. The Jews and the Christians have been editing their "Book of God" from its very inception. The difference between them and the ancient forgerers is that the ancient forgers did not know the art of writing "prefaces" and "footnotes", otherwise they too would have told us as clearly as our modern heroes have about their tampering, and their glib excuses for transmuting forged currency into glittering gold.

BANYAK CADANGAN PINDAAN TELAH DIKEMUKAKAN KEPADA JAWATANKUASA OLEH INDIVIDU DAN OLEH DUA JAWATANKUASA MAZHAB, KESEMUANYA TELAH DIBERI PERHATIAN YANG TELITI OLEH JAWATANKUASA.

"MANY PROPOSALS FOR MODIFICATION WERE SUBMITTED TO THE COMMITTEE BY INDIVIDUALS AND BY TWO DENOMINATIONAL COMMITTEES ALL OF THESE WERE GIVEN CAREFUL ATTENTION BY THE COMMITTEE.

"DUA PETIKAN, YAITU PENGAKHIRAN PANJANG MARKUS (16:9-20) . . . DAN LUKAS 24:51 DIKEMBALIKAN KE DALAM TEKS." (Prakata — halaman vi dan vii Collins)

"TWO PASSAGES, THE I LONGER ENDING OF MARK (16:9-20) . . . AND LUKE 24:51 ARE RESTORED TO THE TEXT." (Preface — Collins' pages vi and vii)

"Mengapa 'dipulihkan'"? Kerana ia sebelum ini telah dibuang! Mengapa rujukan kepada Kenaikan telah dibuang pada mulanya? Manuskrip yang PALING Purba tidak mempunyai sebarang rujukan kepada Kenaikan sama sekali. Ia adalah sisipan yang serupa dengan 1 Yohanes 5:7 tentang Triniti. (Rujuk contoh 3 sebelum ini.) Mengapa menghapuskan yang satu dan mengembalikan yang lain? Jangan terkejut! Apabila anda mendapatkan RSV, "Jawatankuasa" mungkin juga telah memutuskan untuk membuang keseluruhan Prakatanya yang tidak ternilai. Saksi-Saksi Yehuwa telah pun menghapuskan 27 muka surat yang mendedahkan dalam FOREWORD kepada "New World Translation of the CHRISTIAN GREEK SCRIPTURES," (ini cara mereka mengatakan — Perjanjian Baru).

"Why 'restored'"? Because they had been previously expunged! Why had the references to the Ascension expunged in the first place? The MOST Ancient manuscripts had no references to the Ascension at all. They were interpolations similar to 1 John 5:7 about the Trinity. (Refer to the earlier example 3). Why eliminate one and re-instate the other? Do not be surprised! By the time you lay your hands on a RSV, the "Committee" might also have decided to expunge the whole of their invaluable Preface. The Jehovah's Witnesses have already eliminated 27 revealing pages of their FOREWORD to their "New World Translation of the CHRISTIAN GREEK SCRIPTURES," (this is their way of saying — New Testament).

The Rev. C. I. Scofield, D. D., bersama sebuah pasukan yang terdiri daripada 8 orang Editor Perundingan, yang kesemuanya bergelar D.D. dalam "Scofield Reference Bible", menganggap wajar untuk mengeja perkataan Ibrani "Elah" (bermaksud Tuhan) secara alternatif sebagai "Alah". Maka orang-orang Kristian telah menelan unta — mereka nampaknya akhirnya menerima bahawa nama Tuhan ialah Allah — tetapi masih menapis nyamuk dengan mengeja Allah dengan satu "L"! (Salinan fotografi halaman Bible yang menunjukkan perkataan "ALAH" dipelihara di sini untuk tatapan generasi akan datang di bawah). Rujukan telah dibuat dalam syarahan awam mengenai fakta ini oleh pengarang risalah ini. Percayalah, "Scofield Reference Bible" yang kemudiannya telah mengekalkan keseluruhan ulasan Kejadian 1:1 perkata demi perkata, tetapi, dengan silap tangan yang bijak, telah memadamkan perkataan "Alah" sama sekali. Tiada walau sedikit ruang pun di tempat perkataan "Alah" pernah digunakan. 1 1 Ini ada dalam Bible golongan ortodoks! Sukar sekali untuk mengikuti tipu daya mereka.

The Rev. C. I. Scofield, D. D. with a team of 8 Consulting Editors, also all D.D.’s in the "Scofield Reference Bible" thought it appropriate to spell the Hebrew word "Elah" (meaning God) alternatively as "Alah" The Christians had thus swallowed the camel — they seemed to have accepted at last that the name of God is Allah — but were still straining at the gnat by spelling Allah with one "L"! (Photographic reproduction of the Bible page showing the word "ALAH" is preserved here for posterity below). References were made in public lectures to this fact by the author of this booklet. Believe me, the subsequent "Scofield Reference Bible" has retained word for word the whole commentary of Genesis 1:1, but has, by a clever sleight-of-hand, blotted out the word "Alah" altogether. There is not even a gap where the word "Alah" once used to be. 1 1 This is in the Bible of the orthodox! One is hard pressed to keep up with their Jugglery.
