Acts 13
1 Now there were at Antioch, in the church there, prophets and teachers, Barnabas, and Symeon who was named Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, a relation of Herod the king, and Saul.
ⲁ̅ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛⲣⲉϥϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ϧⲉⲛ ϯⲉⲕ⳿ⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲧⲁⲛ ϯⲟⲭⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲃⲁⲣⲛⲁⲃⲁⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ Ⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲫⲏ⳿⳿ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲕⲉⲣ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲗⲟⲩⲕⲓⲟⲥ ⲡⲓⲔⲩⲣⲓⲛⲛⲉⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲙⲁⲛⲁⲏⲡⲓ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛϣⲁⲛϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲏ̇ⲣⲱⲇⲏⲥ ⲡⲓⲧⲉⲧⲣⲁⲁⲣⲭⲏⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲥⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ.
2 And while they were doing the Lord's work, and going without food, the Holy Spirit said, Let Barnabas and Saul be given to me for the special work for which they have been marked out by me.

3 Then, after prayer and going without food they put their hands on them, and sent them away.

4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia; and from there they went by ship to Cyprus.

5 And at Salamis they were preaching the word of God in the Synagogues of the Jews: and John was with them, helping them.

6 And when they had gone through all the island to Paphos, they came across a certain wonder-worker and false prophet, a Jew whose name was Bar-Jesus;

7 Who was with the ruler, Sergius Paulus, an able man. This man sent for Barnabas and Saul, desiring to have knowledge of the word of God.

8 But Elymas, the wonder-worker (for that is the sense of his name), put himself against them, with the purpose of turning the ruler from the faith.

9 But Saul, whose other name is Paul, being full of the Holy Spirit, looking hard at him, said,

10 O you, who are full of false tricks and evil ways, a son of the Evil One, hating all righteousness, will you for ever be turning people from the right ways of the Lord?

11 And now, see, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind and not able to see the sun for a time. And straight away a dark mist came down on him; and he went about looking for a guide.

12 Then the ruler, when he saw what was done, had faith, being full of wonder at the teaching of the Lord.

13 Then Paul and those who were with him went by ship from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia: and there John went away from them and came back to Jerusalem.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲁⲫⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲁ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲁⲣⲛⲁⲃⲁⲥ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉⲣⲅⲏ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲡⲁⲙⲫⲓⲗⲓ⳿ⲁ Ⲓⲱⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥⲫⲱⲣϫ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲕⲟⲧϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲒⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅.
14 But they, going through from Perga, came to Antioch in Pisidia; and they went into the Synagogue on the Sabbath and were seated.

15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the Synagogue sent to them, saying, Brothers, if you have a word of comfort for the people, say on.

16 And Paul, getting up and making a sign with his hand, said, Men of Israel, and you who have the fear of God, give ear.

17 The God of this people Israel made selection of our fathers, lifting the people up from their low condition when they were living in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm took them out of it.

18 And for about forty years he put up with their ways in the waste land.

19 And having put to destruction seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them the land for their heritage for about four hundred and fifty years.

21 Then at their request for a king, God gave them Saul, the son of Kish, a man of the family of Benjamin, who was their king for forty years.

22 And having put him on one side, he made David their king, to whom he gave witness, saying, I have taken David, the son of Jesse, a man dear to my heart, who will do all my pleasure.

23 From this man's seed has God given to Israel a Saviour, even Jesus, as he gave his word;

25 And when John was completing his work, he said, What do I seem to you to be? I am not he; but one is coming after me, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo.

27 For the men of Jerusalem and their rulers, having no knowledge of him, or of the sayings of the prophets which come to their ears every Sabbath day, gave effect to them by judging him.

29 And when they had done all the things said in the Writings about him, they took him down from the tree, and put him in the place of the dead.

31 And for a number of days he was seen by those who came with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses before the people.

33 Which God has now put into effect for our children, by sending Jesus; as it says in the second Psalm, You are my Son; this day I have given you being.

34 And about his coming back from the dead, never again to go to destruction, he has said these words, I will give you the holy and certain mercies of David.

35 Because he says in another Psalm, You will not let your Holy One see destruction.

36 Now David, having done God's work for his generation, went to sleep, and was put with his fathers, and his body came to destruction:

37 But he, who was lifted up by God, did not see destruction.

38 And so, let it be clear to you, my brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is offered to you:
ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲱⲃ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲛⲉⲛ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲥⲉϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲭⲱ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲁ ⲛⲏⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ϣϫⲉⲙϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲉⲑⲁⲙⲓⲟ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲘⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ.
39 And through him everyone who has faith is made free from all those things, from which the law of Moses was not able to make you free.
ⲗ̅ⲑ̅ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ⲥⲉⲛⲁ⳿ⲑⲙⲁⲓⲟϥ.
40 So take care that these words of the prophets do not come true for you;
ⲙ̅⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲙⲏ ⲡⲱⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
41 See, you doubters, have wonder and come to your end; for I will do a thing in your days to which you will not give belief, even if it is made clear to you.
ⲙ̅ⲁ̅ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⲛⲓⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲟⲛⲓⲧⲏⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲁⲣⲓ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲁⲕⲉⲧ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲁ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϩⲱⲃ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲟⲩϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϣⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲫ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ.
42 And when they went out, they made a request that these words might be said to them again on the Sabbath after.
ⲙ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲩⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲁⲩⲉⲣ⳿ⲁⲝⲓⲟⲓⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉⲥⲁϫⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲉⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲉⲑⲛⲏⲟⲩ.
43 Now when the meeting was ended, a number of the Jews and of the God-fearing Gentiles who had become Jews, went after Paul and Barnabas: who put before them how important it was to keep on in the grace of God.
ⲙ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲧⲁⲥⲃⲱⲗ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲁⲩⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲃⲁⲣⲛⲁⲃⲁⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲒⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲥⲉⲃⲉⲥⲑⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓϣⲉⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲑⲱⲧ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲑⲣⲟⲩϣⲱⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
44 And on the Sabbath after, almost all the town came together to give hearing to the word of God.
ⲙ̅ⲇ̅⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⲇⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲉⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲉⲑⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲥⲭⲉⲇⲟⲛ ⳿ⲁ ϯⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ ⲑⲱⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
45 But when the Jews saw such a great number of people, they were full of envy and said evil words against Paul's preaching.
ⲙ̅ⲉ̅⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲒⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ⲁⲩⲙⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲭⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩϯ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲉⲛ ⲛⲏ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲉⲟⲩ⳿ⲁ.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas without fear said, It was necessary for the word of God to be given to you first; but because you will have nothing to do with it, and have no desire for eternal life, it will now be offered to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
ⲙ̅ⲋ̅⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲟⲛϩⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲃⲁⲣⲛⲁⲃⲁⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲛⲁⲅⲕⲉⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲫϯ ⲉⲡⲓⲇⲏⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲱⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣ⳿ⲡⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛ⳿⳿ⲉⲛⲉϩ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲕⲟⲧⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ. (aiōnios g166)
47 For so the Lord has given us orders, saying, I have given you for a light to the Gentiles so that you may be for salvation to the ends of the earth.
ⲙ̅ⲍ̅ⲫⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲙⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϩⲟⲛϩⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲧⲟⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲭⲁⲕ ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲑⲣⲉⲕϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ϣⲁ ⲁⲩⲣⲏϫϥ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ.
48 And the Gentiles, hearing this, were glad and gave glory to the word of God: and those marked out by God for eternal life had faith. (aiōnios g166)
ⲙ̅ⲏ̅⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲣⲁϣⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩϯ⳿ⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲏⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲑⲏϣ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛ⳿⳿ⲉⲛⲉϩ. (aiōnios g166)
49 And the word of the Lord went through all the country.

50 But the Jews, working up the feelings of the God-fearing women of high position and of the chief men of the town, got an attack started against Paul and Barnabas, driving them out of those parts.
ⲛ̅ⲛⲓⲒⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩϣⲟⲡϣⲉⲡ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϩⲓ⳿ⲟⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲥⲉⲃⲉⲥⲑⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲉⲩⲥⲭⲏⲙⲱⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϩⲟⲩⲁϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲇⲓⲱⲅⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲃⲁⲣⲛⲁⲃⲁⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩⲑⲱϣ.
51 But they, shaking off the dust of that place from their feet, came to Iconium.

52 And the disciples were full of joy and of the Holy Spirit.
