< John 1 >
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
ⲁ̅ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉϩⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓⲧⲉ ⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϩⲣⲛ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ.
2 This man was in the beginning with God.
ⲃ̅ⲡⲁⲓ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉϩⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓⲧⲉ ⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲁⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
3 All things came to be through him, and apart from him not even one thing came to be that has come to be.
ⲅ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϫⲛ̅ⲧϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ϣⲱⲡⲉ. ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
ⲇ̅ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲱⲛϩ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲱⲛϩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ ⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ.
5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ ϥⲣ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲁⲕⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡⲕⲁⲕⲉ ⲧⲁϩⲟϥ·
6 A man came to be who was sent from God, his name was John.
ⲋ̅ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲁⲩⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ.
7 This man came for testimony so that he might testify about the light, so that all might believe through him.
ⲍ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲩⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲣ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓⲛ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ.
8 That man was not the light, but that he might testify about the light.
ⲏ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲉϥⲉⲣ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ.
9 He was the true light coming into the world that enlightens every man.
ⲑ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉ͡ⲉ ⲉⲧⲣ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
10 He was in the world, and the world came to be through him, and the world knew him not.
ⲓ̅ⲛⲉϥϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛϥ̅.
11 He came to his own, and his own did not accept him.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁϥⲓ̈ ϣⲁⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲛⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲛⲉ ϫⲓⲧϥ̅.
12 But as many as did accept him, to them he gave power to become children of God, to those who believe in his name,
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲓⲧϥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ.
13 who were begotten, not from blood, nor from a will of flesh, nor from a will of man, but from God.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛϩⲉⲛⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲛ̅ⲥⲛⲟϥ ϩⲓⲥⲁⲣⲝ̅ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩϫⲡⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us. And we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁϥⲣ̅ⲥⲁⲣⲝ̅ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲛ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲉ͡ⲓⲱⲧ ⲉϥϫⲏⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ϩⲓⲙⲉ.
15 John testified about him, and cried out, saying, This was he of whom I said, He who comes after me came to be before me, because he was before me.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ϥⲣ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ϥⲁϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧϥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲏⲩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲉ͡ⲓ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲁϩⲏ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲟ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ
16 And from his fullness we all received, even grace for grace.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ϫⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥϫⲱⲕ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲧⲏⲣⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲛϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲉⲡⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ.
17 Because the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth came to be through Jesus Christ.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϫⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲩ̈ⲥⲏⲥ. ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ϩⲱⲱⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
18 No man has ever seen God. The only begotten Son, being in the bosom of the Father, that man reported him.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲛⲉϩ. ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲩⲛϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲉ͡ⲓⲱⲧ ⲡⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
19 And this is the testimony of John when the Jews sent forth priests and Levites from Jerusalem so that they might ask him, Who are thou?
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲟⲩ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲟⲩⲏⲏⲃ ⲛⲙ̅ϩⲉⲛⲗⲉⲩⲉ͡ⲓⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉϫⲛⲟⲩϥ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕ̅ⲛⲓⲙ.
20 And he confessed, and did not deny, and confessed, I am not the Christ.
ⲕ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϩⲟⲙⲟⲗⲟⲅⲓ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡ̅ϥⲁⲣⲛⲁ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
21 And they asked him, What therefore, are thou Elijah? And he says, I am not. Are thou the prophet? And he answered, No.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩϫⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ϩⲏⲗⲓⲁⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ.
22 They said therefore to him, Who are thou, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do thou say about thyself?
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕ̅ⲛⲓⲙ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲛⲉϫⲓⲡⲟⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁⲟⲩⲟⲛ. ⲉⲕϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧⲕ̅.
23 He said, I am the voice of a man crying out in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, just as the prophet Isaiah said.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲥⲙⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲱϣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲡϫⲁⲓ̈ⲉ ϫⲉ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲏⲥⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲥ ⲡⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
24 And those who were sent were from the Pharisees.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ
25 And they asked him, and said to him, Why therefore do thou immerse if thou are not the Christ nor Elijah nor the prophet?
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩϫⲛⲟⲩϥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ϭⲉ ⲕⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ. ⲉϣϫⲉⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ϩⲏⲗⲉ͡ⲓⲁⲥ. ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲡⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
26 John answered them, saying, I immerse in water, but amidst you stands him whom ye know not.
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲓ̈ⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ϥⲁϩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲙⲏⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ
27 He is the man who comes after me, who has become before me, of whom I am not worthy that I might loosen the strap of his shoe.
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲏⲩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲉ͡ⲓ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛϯⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲩⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲧⲟⲟⲩⲉ.
28 These things occurred in Bethany beyond the Jordan where John was immersing.
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲃⲏⲑⲁⲣⲁⲃⲁ ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲣⲇⲁⲛⲏⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲉⲣⲉⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅.
29 On the morrow John sees Jesus coming to him, and he says, Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲥⲧⲉ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥⲡⲉϩⲓⲉⲓⲃ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁϥⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
30 This is he about whom I said, After me comes a man who has become before me, because he was before me.
ⲗ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧϥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲏⲩ ϩⲓⲡⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲁϩⲏ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲟ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ.
31 And I had not known him, but that he would be made known to Israel. Because of this I came immersing in water.

32 And John testified, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained upon him.

33 And I had not known him. But he who sent me to immerse in water, he said to me, Upon whomever thou will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him, this is he who immerses in the Holy Spirit.

34 And I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.

35 Again on the morrow John stood, and two of his disciples.

36 And having looked upon Jesus walking, he says, Behold, the Lamb of God!
ⲗ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϭⲱϣⲧ̅ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϩⲓⲉ͡ⲓⲃ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
37 And the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.

38 And Jesus having turned, and having seen them following, says to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi (which says, being interpreted, Teacher), where do thou dwell?
ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲕⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲏϩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲟⲩ. ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲃⲃⲉⲓ. ⲡⲉϣⲁⲩⲟⲩⲁϩⲙⲉϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲥⲁϩ. ⲉⲕⲟⲩⲏϩ ⲧⲱⲛ.
39 He says to them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and remained with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
ⲗ̅ⲑ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲙⲏⲉ͡ⲓⲧⲛ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲁⲩ. ⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ϭⲉ ⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲏϩ ⲧⲱⲛ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲁϩⲧⲏϥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ. ⲛⲉⲡⲛⲁⲩ ⲛϫⲡⲙⲏⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard from John and who followed him.

41 This man first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being interpreted, Christ).

42 And he brought him to Jesus. And having seen him, Jesus said, Thou are Simon the son of Jonah. Thou will be called Cephas (which is interpreted, Peter).
ⲙ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲛ̅ⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϭⲱϣⲧ̅ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉϩⲣⲁϥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲉⲩⲉⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ϫⲉ ⲕⲏⲫⲁ ⲡⲉϣⲁⲩⲟⲩⲁϩⲙⲉϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ.
43 On the morrow he wanted to go forth into Galilee, and he finds Philip. And Jesus says to him, Follow me.

44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.

45 Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets wrote: Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth.
ⲙ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲫⲓⲗⲓⲡⲡⲟⲥ ϩⲉ ⲉⲛⲁⲑⲁⲛⲁⲏⲗ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲙⲱⲩ̈ⲥⲏⲥ ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧϥ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲛϩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲱⲥⲏⲫ ⲡⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲍⲁⲣⲉⲑ.
46 And Nathanael said to him, What good can be from Nazareth? Philip says to him, Come and see.

47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says about him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit.

48 Nathanael says to him, How do thou know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called thee, being under the fig tree, I saw thee.

49 Nathanael answered, and says to him, Rabbi, thou are the Son of God. Thou are the king of Israel.
ⲙ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲛⲁⲑⲁⲛⲁⲏⲗ ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲃⲃⲉⲓ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲣⲁⲏⲗ.
50 Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, thou believe? Thou will see greater than these things.
