1 ⲁ̅ ϣ̅ϣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲟⲩⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛϥⲓ ϩⲁⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧϭⲱⲃ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲙⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲁⲣⲉⲥⲕⲉ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲁⲛ.
Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.

For even Christ did not please himself. But, as it is written, "The insults of those who insult you fell on me."
4 ⲇ̅ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ⲥⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ⲥⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲃⲱ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲑⲩⲡⲟⲙⲟⲛⲏ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⲉⲛⲉϫⲡⲟ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ.
For whatever things were written before were written for our instruction, that through patience and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
Now the God of patience and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Christ Jesus,
that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Therefore accept one another, even as Christ also accepted you, to the glory of God.
Now I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,
9 ⲑ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲁⲟⲩⲛⲁ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩϯⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉⲧⲥⲏϩ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϯⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲓϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲛⲁⲯⲁⲗⲗⲉⲓ ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲣⲁⲛ.
and that the non-Jews might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "therefore I will give praise to you among the non-Jews, and sing to your name."
Again he says, "Rejoice, you nations, with his people."
Again, "Praise the Lord, all you nations. Let all the peoples praise him."
12 ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ϣⲁⲣⲉⲏ̅ⲥⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲥ ⲟⲛ ϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲧⲛⲟⲩⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲉⲥⲥⲁⲓ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲁⲣⲭⲓ ⲉⲛϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲍⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ·
Again, Isaiah says, "There will be the root of Jesse, he who arises to rule over the peoples; in him will the nations hope."
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⲉϥⲉϫⲉⲕⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲓⲉⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ. ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ϩⲛ̅ⲑⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ϩⲛ̅ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ·
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.
14 ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ ϯⲡⲓⲑⲉ ϩⲱ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲙⲉϩ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϫⲏⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅ ⲉⲩⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉⲣⲏⲩ·
I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.
15 ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲧⲟⲗⲙⲁ ⲁⲓ̈ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲁⲡⲟⲙⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ. ⲉⲓ̈ⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁⲥ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
But I write the more boldly to you in part, as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,
16 ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ ⲉⲧⲣⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲗⲓⲧⲟⲩⲣⲅⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲛϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ. ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲡⲣⲟⲥⲫⲟⲣⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲥϣⲏⲡ ⲉⲁⲩⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟⲥ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ·
that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the non-Jews, serving as a priest the Good News of God, that the offering up of the non-Jews might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
I have therefore my boasting in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God.
18 ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ ⲛⲉⲉⲓⲧⲟⲗⲙⲁ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲉϫⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲙⲡⲉⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧ ⲉⲡⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ. ϩⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲡϩⲱⲃ.
For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Christ worked through me, for the obedience of the non-Jews, by word and deed,
19 ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ. ϩⲛ̅ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϫⲓⲛⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲥⲕⲱⲧⲉ ϣⲁϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲡⲓⲗⲗⲩⲣⲓⲕⲟⲛ. ⲉⲧⲣⲁϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Christ.
20 ⲕ̅ ⲉⲉⲓ̅ⲣⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓϩⲉ ⲉⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲍⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁⲩⲉⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲛⲛⲁⲕⲱⲧ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲥⲛ̅ⲧⲉ.
And in this way I desire to preach the Good News where Christ was not known, that I might not build on another's foundation.
But, as it is written, "Those who were not told about him, they will see, and those who have not heard, they will understand."
Therefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you,
but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you,
24 ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲓ̅ ⲉⲓ̈ⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲧⲉⲥⲡⲁⲛⲓⲁ. ϯϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲍⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲑⲡⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲙⲁⲩ. ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁⲛⲥⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲁⲡⲟⲙⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥ.
whenever I journey to Spain I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.
But now, I say, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the saints.
26 ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ϩⲛⲁⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲁⲧⲙⲁⲕⲉⲇⲟⲛⲓⲁ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲭⲁⲓ̈ⲁ ⲉⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲟⲓⲛⲱⲛⲓⲁ ⲉⲛϩⲏⲕⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲉⲧϩⲛ̅ⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ.
For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem.
27 ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ϩⲛⲁⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩⲥ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ. ⲉϣϫⲉⲁⲛ̅ϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲕⲟⲓⲛⲱⲛⲓ ⲉⲛⲉⲩⲡⲛⲉⲩⲙⲁⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ϣ̅ϣⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲣⲕⲓⲕⲟⲛ.
Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the non-Jewish people have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.
When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.
I know that, when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.
30 ⲗ̅ ϯⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁ(ⲗⲉⲓ) ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅. ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛⲁⲅⲱⲛⲓⲍⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉϣⲗⲏⲗ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϩⲣⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
Now I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,
31 ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲛⲟⲩϩⲙ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟ ⲛ̅ⲁⲧⲛⲁϩⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ϯⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲁ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲁⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓⲁ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲉⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲥϣⲏⲡ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ.
that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints;
that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and together with you, find rest.
Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
