< John 10 >

1 Truly I say to you, He who does not go through the door into the place where the sheep are kept, but gets in by some other way, is a thief and an outlaw.
ⲁ̅ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛ̅ϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲟ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲟϩⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲱⲧⲃ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲕⲉⲥⲁ. ⲡⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲣⲉϥϫⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲟⲛⲉ ⲡⲉ.
2 He who goes in by the door is the keeper of the sheep.
ⲃ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲏⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲟ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ⲡϣⲱⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ.
3 The porter lets him in; and the sheep give ear to his voice; he says over the names of the sheep, and takes them out.
ⲅ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϣⲁⲣⲉⲡⲉⲙⲛⲟⲩⲧ ⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲛⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ϣⲁⲣⲉⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲧⲉϥⲥⲙⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ϣⲁϥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲛⲉϥⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲉⲩⲣⲁⲛ ⲛϥ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
4 When he has got them all out, he goes before them, and the sheep go after him, for they have knowledge of his voice.
ⲇ̅ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛⲉ͡ⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ. ϣⲁϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲩϩⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ϣⲁⲣⲉⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲥⲙⲏ.
5 They will not go after another who is not their keeper, but will go from him in flight, because his voice is strange to them.
ⲉ̅ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲟⲩⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲟⲩϣⲙ̅ⲙⲟ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲡⲱⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥⲙⲏ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϣⲙ̅ⲙⲟ.
6 In this Jesus was teaching them in the form of a story: but what he said was not clear to them.
ⲋ̅ⲧⲉⲉ͡ⲓⲡⲁⲣϩⲟⲓⲙⲓⲁ ⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ⲛⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲧϥ̅ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲩ.
7 So Jesus said again, Truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
ⲍ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϭⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡϣⲱⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ.
8 All who came before me are thieves and outlaws: but the sheep did not give ear to them.
ⲏ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ϩⲉⲛⲣⲉϥϫⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲉⲛⲥⲟⲟⲛⲉ ⲛⲉ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ.
9 I am the door: if any man goes in through me he will have salvation, and will go in and go out, and will get food.
ⲑ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲣⲟ. ⲉⲣϣⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧ. ϥⲛⲁⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲩⲱ ϥⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕʾ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛϥ̅ⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϥ̅ϩⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲛⲉ.
10 The thief comes only to take the sheep and to put them to death: he comes for their destruction: I have come so that they may have life and have it in greater measure.
ⲓ̅ⲡⲣⲉϥϫⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲙⲉϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ. ⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲏⲧⲓ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉϩⲱϥⲧ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥ̅ϣⲱⲱⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥ̅ⲧⲁⲕⲟ. ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲉ͡ⲓ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲛⲁϩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϫⲓⲟⲩϩⲟ(ⲩⲟ).
11 I am the good keeper of sheep: the good keeper gives his life for the sheep.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡϣⲱⲥ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ. ⲡϣⲱⲥ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ϣⲁϥⲕⲁⲧⲉϥⲯⲩⲭⲏ ϩⲁⲛⲉϥⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ.
12 He who is a servant, and not the keeper or the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming and goes in flight, away from the sheep; and the wolf comes down on them and sends them in all directions:
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲡϫⲁⲓ̈ⲃⲉⲕⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲛ̅ⲟⲩϣⲱⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲉⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ϣⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲱⲛϣ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ϣⲁϥⲕⲁⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲛϥ̅ⲡⲱⲧ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϣⲁⲣⲉⲡⲟⲩⲱⲛϣ ⲧⲟⲣⲡⲟⲩ ⲛϥ̅ϫⲟⲟⲣⲟⲩ
13 Because he is a servant he has no interest in the sheep.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ⲃⲉⲕⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲣⲟⲟⲩϣ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ.
14 I am the good keeper; I have knowledge of my sheep, and they have knowledge of me,
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡϣⲱⲥ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲉ͡ⲓ.
15 Even as the Father has knowledge of me and I of the Father; and I am giving my life for the sheep.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡⲓⲱⲧ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲉ͡ⲓ. ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϩⲱ ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲱⲧ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲛⲁⲕⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲯⲩⲭⲏ ϩⲁⲛⲁⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ.
16 And I have other sheep which are not of this field: I will be their guide in the same way, and they will give ear to my voice, so there will be one flock and one keeper.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲉⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲛϩⲉⲛⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲟϩⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲡⲥ̅ ⲉⲧⲣⲁⲥⲟⲟⲩϩⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲧⲁⲥⲙⲏ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ. ⲟⲩϣⲱⲥ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ.
17 For this reason am I loved by the Father, because I give up my life so that I may take it again.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲁⲕⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲯⲩⲭⲏ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉϫⲓⲧⲥ̅.
18 No one takes it away from me; I give it up of myself. I have power to give it up, and I have power to take it again. These orders I have from my Father.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ϥⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲧⲕⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲓ̈ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩⲁⲁⲧ. ⲟⲩⲛϯⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲛϯⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉϫⲓⲧⲥ̅. ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ϫⲓⲧⲥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ.
19 There was a division again among the Jews because of these words.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲥⲭⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲟⲛ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲛⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ.
20 And a number of them said, He has an evil spirit and is out of his mind; why do you give ear to him?
ⲕ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲇⲉ ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ϥⲗⲟⲃⲉ. ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
21 Others said, These are not the words of one who has an evil spirit. Is it possible for an evil spirit to make blind people see?
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲉϥⲟ ⲛ̅ⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ. ⲙⲏ ⲟⲩⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲉⲩⲱⲛ ⲛ̅ⲃ̅ⲃⲁⲗ ⲛ̅ⲃ̅ⲃⲗ̅ⲗⲉ·
22 Then came the feast of the opening of the Temple in Jerusalem: it was winter;
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲟⲓ̈ϣ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡϫⲓⲁⲉⲓⲕ ϩⲛ̅ⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲡⲣⲱ ⲧⲉ.
23 And Jesus was walking in the Temple, in Solomon's covered way.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲥⲧⲟⲁ ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲗⲟⲙⲱⲛ.
24 Then the Jews came round him, saying, how long are you going to keep us in doubt? If you are the Christ, say so clearly.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲕⲱⲧⲉ ϭⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ϣⲁⲧⲛⲁⲩ ⲕϥⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ. ⲉϣϫⲉⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϫⲓⲥ ⲛⲁⲛ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲣⲏⲥⲓⲁ.
25 Jesus said in answer, I have said it and you have no belief: the works which I do in my Father's name, these give witness about me.
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲁⲉ͡ⲓϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲁⲛ. ⲛⲉϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉϯⲉ͡ⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲉⲧⲣ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧ.
26 But you have no belief because you are not of my sheep.
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ.
27 My sheep give ear to my voice, and I have knowledge of them, and they come after me:
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲛⲁⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϣⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲧⲁⲥⲙⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲟⲩⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲉ͡ⲓ
28 And I give them eternal life; they will never come to destruction, and no one will ever take them out of my hand. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯⲛⲁϯ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ϣⲁⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩϩⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲧⲟⲣⲡⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁϭⲓϫ. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
29 That which my Father has given to me has more value than all; and no one is able to take anything out of the Father's hand.
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ϥϩⲓϫⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲛϣϭⲟⲙ ⲗⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲟⲣⲡⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛⲧ̅ϭⲓϫ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ.
30 I and my Father are one.
ⲗ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲛⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲉ͡ⲓⲱⲧ ⲁⲛⲟⲛⲟⲩⲁ.
31 Then the Jews took up stones again to send at him.
ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩϥⲓⲱⲛⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲛⲟⲩϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
32 Jesus said to them in answer, I have let you see a number of good works from the Father; for which of those works are you stoning me?
ⲗ̅ⲃ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲁⲓ̈ⲧⲥⲁⲃⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲁϣ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲓⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈.
33 This was their answer: We are not stoning you for a good work but for evil words; because being a man you make yourself God.
ⲗ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲛⲁϩⲓⲱⲛⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⲉⲧⲃⲉϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲧⲃⲉϫⲓⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲉⲛⲧⲕ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲕⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
34 In answer, Jesus said, Is there not a saying in your law, I said, You are gods?
ⲗ̅ⲇ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲙⲏ ⲛϥ̅ⲥⲏϩ ⲁⲛ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲓ̈ϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
35 If he said they were gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Writings may not be broken),
ⲗ̅ⲉ̅ⲉϣϫⲉⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϣⲁⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
36 Do you say of him whom the Father made holy and sent into the world, Your words are evil; because I said, I am God's Son?
ⲗ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲓ̈ⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡⲓⲱⲧ ⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟϥ ⲁϥⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲕϫⲉⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓ̈ϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲅ̅ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
37 If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not have belief in me;
ⲗ̅ⲍ̅ⲉϣϫⲉⲛ̅ϯⲉ͡ⲓⲣⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲉ͡ⲓ.
38 But if I am doing them, then have belief in the works even if you have no belief in me; so that you may see clearly and be certain that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.
ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲉϣϫⲉϯⲉ͡ⲓⲣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲕⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲉ͡ⲓ. ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲛⲉϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲱⲧ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯϩⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲱⲧ.
39 Then again they made an attempt to take him; but he got away from them.
ⲗ̅ⲑ̅ⲛⲉⲩϣⲓⲛⲉ ϭⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁϭⲟⲡϥ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩϭⲓϫ
40 And he went again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John first gave baptism; and he was there for a time.
ⲙ̅ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲣⲇⲁⲛⲏⲥ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲉⲣⲉⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲉϥⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϭⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ
41 And a great number of people came to him, saying, John did no sign: but everything John said of this man was true.

42 And a number came to have faith in him there.
