2 Corinthians 5
1 For we know that if our earthly tabernacle house be destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)
ⲁ̅ⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛ ⲡⲏⲓ ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲙⲁ ⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲕⲁϩ ⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲱⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲏⲉⲓ ⲛⲁⲧⲙⲟⲩⲛⲅ ⲛϭⲓϫ ϣⲁ ⲉⲛⲉϩ ϩⲛ ⲙⲡⲏⲟⲩⲉ (aiōnios g166)
2 For indeed in this we groan, ardently desiring to have put on our house which [is] from heaven;
ⲃ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲛⲁϣⲁϩⲟⲙ ϩⲙ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲟⲩⲉϣϯ ϩⲓⲱⲱⲛ ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲙⲁ ⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧⲡⲉ
3 if indeed being also clothed we shall not be found naked.
ⲅ̅ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲉⲛϣⲁⲛⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲟⲛ ϩⲓⲱⲱⲛ ⲛⲥⲉⲛⲁϩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲕⲏⲕⲁϩⲏⲩ
4 For indeed we who are in the tabernacle groan, being burdened; while yet we do not wish to be unclothed, but clothed, that [what is] mortal may be swallowed up by life.
ⲇ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲉⲛϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲉⲓⲙⲁ ⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲧⲛⲁϣⲁϩⲟⲙ ⲉⲩⲃⲁⲣⲓ ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲉϫⲙⲡ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲧⲛⲟⲩⲉϣ ⲕⲁⲁⲛ ⲕⲁϩⲏⲩ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϯ ϩⲓⲱⲱϥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲱⲙⲕ ⲙⲡⲉϣⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲱⲛϩ
5 Now he that has wrought us for this very thing [is] God, who also has given to us the earnest of the Spirit.
ⲉ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲣϩⲱⲃ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲏⲃ ⲙⲡⲉⲡⲛⲁ
6 Therefore [we are] always confident, and know that while present in the body we are absent from the Lord,
ⲋ̅ⲉⲛⲧⲏⲕ ϭⲉ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲛϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲙ ⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲧⲛⲙⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ
7 (for we walk by faith, not by sight; )
ⲍ̅ⲉⲛⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲟⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲛ
8 we are confident, I say, and pleased rather to be absent from the body and present with the Lord.
ⲏ̅ⲧⲛⲧⲏⲕ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϩⲛⲁⲛ ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲉⲃⲱⲕ ϩⲁⲧⲙ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ
9 Wherefore also we are zealous, whether present or absent, to be agreeable to him.
ⲑ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ϭⲉ ⲧⲛⲣⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲉⲛϩⲙ ⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲉⲛⲙⲡⲉϥⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲛⲣⲁⲛⲁϥ
10 For we must all be manifested before the judgment-seat of the Christ, that each may receive the things [done] in the body, according to those he has done, whether [it be] good or evil.
ⲓ̅ϩⲁⲡⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲧⲏⲣⲛ ⲙⲡⲉⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲃⲏⲙⲁ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲡⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲁⲅⲁⲑⲟⲛ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲑⲟⲟⲩ
11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord we persuade men, but have been manifested to God, and I hope also that we have been manifested in your consciences.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϭⲉ ⲛⲑⲟⲧⲉ ⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲧⲛⲡⲓ ⲑⲉ ⲛⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲧⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϯϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲍⲉ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲛϩⲏⲧ
12 [For] we do not again commend ourselves to you, but [we are] giving to you occasion of boast in our behalf, that ye may have [such] with those boasting in countenance, and not in heart.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲥⲩⲛϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲛϯ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ⲛⲟⲩⲁⲫⲟⲣⲙⲏ ⲛϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲛ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲣⲛ ⲛⲉⲧϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ ⲡϩⲟ ϩⲙ ⲡϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲛ
13 For whether we are beside ourselves, [it is] to God; or are sober, [it is] for you.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲡⲱϣⲥ ⲛⲧⲁⲛⲡⲱϣⲥ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲥⲙⲟⲛⲧ ⲉϥⲥⲙⲟⲛⲧ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ
14 For the love of the Christ constrains us, having judged this: that one died for all, then all have died;
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲉⲁⲛⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲡⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲁⲣⲁ ⲁⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲙⲟⲩ
15 and he died for all, that they who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who died for them and has been raised.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲛϩ ⲛⲛⲉⲩⲱⲛϩ ϭⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ
16 So that we henceforth know no one according to flesh; but if even we have known Christ according to flesh, yet now we know [him thus] no longer.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϫⲓⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲥⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲟⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ
17 So if any one [be] in Christ, [there is] a new creation; the old things have passed away; behold all things have become new:
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲧϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲟⲩⲥⲱⲛⲧ ⲛⲃⲣⲣⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲛⲁⲣⲭⲁⲓⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲓⲥ ϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ⲁϩⲉⲛⲃⲣⲣⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ
18 and all things [are] of the God who has reconciled us to himself by [Jesus] Christ, and given to us the ministry of that reconciliation:
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲉⲛⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϩⲟⲧⲡⲛ ⲛⲁϥ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲛⲧⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓⲁ ⲙⲡϩⲱⲧⲡ
19 how that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their offences; and putting in us the word of that reconciliation.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲉϥϩⲱⲧⲡ ⲛⲁϥ ⲙⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲉⲛϥⲱⲡ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲛⲉⲩⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲁϥⲕⲱ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲛ ⲙⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲡϩⲱⲧⲡ
20 We are ambassadors therefore for Christ, God as [it were] beseeching by us, we entreat for Christ, Be reconciled to God.

21 Him who knew not sin he has made sin for us, that we might become God's righteousness in him.
