1 Corinthians 16
1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye.
ⲁ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲟⲩⲱϭⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧϫⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲧⲟϣⲥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲅⲁⲗⲁⲧⲓⲁ. ⲁⲣⲓⲥ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅
2 Upon the first day of the week let each one of you lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come.
ⲃ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲥⲟⲩⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ. ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲕⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲉϥⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧϥ̅ⲛⲁϩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲟⲩⲱϭⲥ̅ ϣⲱⲡⲉ.
3 And when I arrive, whomsoever ye shall approve, them will I send with letters to carry your bounty unto Jerusalem:
ⲅ̅ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲁⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉϫⲟⲟⲩⲥⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲉϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲉⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ.
4 and if it be meet for me to go also, they shall go with me.
ⲇ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉϣϣⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲁⲃⲱⲕ ϩⲱ ⲥⲉⲛⲏⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈.
5 But I will come unto you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia; for I pass through Macedonia;
ⲉ̅ϯⲛⲏⲩ ⲇⲉ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲁⲕⲉⲇⲟⲛⲓⲁ. ϯⲛⲏⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲁⲕⲉⲇⲟⲛⲓⲁ.
6 but with you it may be that I shall abide, or even winter, that ye may set me forward on my journey whithersoever I go.
ⲋ̅ⲙⲉϣⲁⲕ ⲇⲉ ϯⲛⲁϭⲱ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅. ⲏ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲣ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲣⲱ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲑⲡⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲡⲙⲁ ⲉϯⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
7 For I do not wish to see you now by the way; for I hope to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.
ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲉⲓⲡⲁⲣⲁⲅⲉ. ϯⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲣ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ϩⲁⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ.
8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost;
ⲏ̅ϯϭⲉⲉⲧ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲉⲫⲉⲥⲟⲥ ϣⲁⲧⲡⲉⲛⲧⲏⲕⲟⲥⲧⲏ.
9 for a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲣⲟ ⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ̈. ⲉϥⲉⲛⲉⲣⲅⲉⲓ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲁⲛⲧⲓⲕⲓⲙⲉⲛⲟⲥ·
10 Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear; for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do:
ⲓ̅ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ ϯϩⲧⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲁϫⲛ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅. ⲡϩⲱⲃ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲡⲉⲧϥ̅ⲣ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϩⲉ.
11 let no man therefore despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come unto me: for I expect him with the brethren.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲧⲣⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ϭⲉ ⲥⲟϣϥ̅. ⲙⲁⲑⲡⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲟⲓ̈. ϯϭⲱϣⲧ̅ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ·
12 But as touching Apollos the brother, I besought him much to come unto you with the brethren: and it was not at all [his] will to come now; but he will come when he shall have opportunity.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲁⲡⲟⲗⲗⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲥⲟⲛ ⲁⲓ̈ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲉϣⲁⲕ ⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲱϣ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ. ϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛϩⲉ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ.
13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲣⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ. ϫⲣⲟ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϭⲙ̅ϭⲟⲙ.
14 Let all that ye do be done in love.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ·
15 Now I beseech you, brethren (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to minister unto the saints),
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ϯⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ⲥⲧⲉⲫⲁⲛⲁ ϫⲉ ⲡϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲭⲁⲓ̈ⲁ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲕⲁⲁⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ.
16 that ye also be in subjection unto such, and to every one that helpeth in the work and laboreth.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉϩⲩⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓⲙⲓⲛⲉ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲟ ⲛ̅ϣⲃⲣ̅ⲣ̅ϩⲱⲃ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧϩⲟⲥⲉ.
17 And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they supplied.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϯⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲁⲣϩⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲥⲧⲉⲫⲁⲛⲁ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲫⲟⲣⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲧⲟⲥ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲁⲭⲁⲓ̈ⲕⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲉⲕⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲱⲱⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours: acknowledge ye therefore them that are such.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩϯⲙ̅ⲧⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅. ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲥⲟⲩⲛⲛⲁⲓ̈ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓⲙⲓⲛⲉ·
19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Prisca salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲥⲉϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥⲓⲁ. ⲥⲉϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲁⲕⲩⲗⲁ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲣⲓⲥⲕⲁ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩϩⲥ̅ ⲉⲧϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲏⲉⲓ·
20 All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.

21 The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲥⲡⲁⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲥϩⲁⲉⲓϥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϭⲓϫ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ.
22 If any man loveth not the Lord, let him be anathema. Maranatha.

23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
