Philippians 1
1 Paul and Timotheus, bondmen of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with [the] overseers and ministers;
ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ⲉⲩⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲫⲓⲗⲓⲡⲡⲟⲥ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲓⲥⲕⲟⲡⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲟⲥ.
2 grace to you, and peace from God our Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.
ⲃ̅ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ϯⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅·
3 I thank my God for my whole remembrance of you,
ⲅ̅ϯϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅.
4 constantly in my every supplication, making the supplication for you all with joy,
ⲇ̅ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩ(ⲟ)ⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅. ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲁϣⲉ
5 because of your fellowship with the gospel, from the first day until now;
ⲉ̅ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲓⲛⲱⲛⲓⲁ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ. ϫⲓⲛⲙ̅ⲡϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲛϩⲟⲟⲩ ϣⲁϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ.
6 having confidence of this very thing, that he who has begun in you a good work will complete it unto Jesus Christ's day:
ⲋ̅ⲉⲓ̈ⲧⲏⲕ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲓ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ. ϥⲛⲁϫⲟⲕϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϣⲁⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
7 as it is righteous for me to think this as to you all, because ye have me in your hearts, and that both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the glad tidings ye are all participators in my grace.
ⲍ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉⲩⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅. ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁϩⲏⲧ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲙⲣ̅ⲣⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲁⲡⲟⲗⲟⲅⲓⲁ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲧⲁϫⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ. ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲟ ⲛ̅ⲥⲩⲅⲕⲟⲓⲛⲱⲛⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ.
8 For God is my witness how I long after you all in [the] bowels of Christ Jesus.
ⲏ̅ⲡⲁⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲉϯⲟⲩⲉϣⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧϣⲁⲛϩ̅ⲧⲏϥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in full knowledge and all intelligence,
ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲣ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ. ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ. ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲁⲓⲥⲑⲏⲥⲓⲥ ⲛⲓⲙ.
10 that ye may judge of and approve the things that are more excellent, in order that ye may be pure and without offence for Christ's day,
ⲓ̅ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲁⲍⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲣ̅ⲛⲟϥⲣⲉ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲏⲩ. ⲉⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϫⲓ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
11 being complete as regards the fruit of righteousness, which [is] by Jesus Christ, to God's glory and praise.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϫⲏⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲡⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲧⲁⲉⲓⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ·
12 But I would have you know, brethren, that the circumstances in which I am have turned out rather to the furtherance of the glad tidings,
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲉϯⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲁⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲩⲡⲣⲟⲕⲟⲡⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ.
13 so that my bonds have become manifest [as being] in Christ in all the praetorium and to all others;
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲙⲣ̅ⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡⲣⲁⲓⲧⲱⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲕⲉⲥⲉⲉⲡⲉ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅.
14 and that the most of the brethren, trusting in [the] Lord through my bonds, dare more abundantly to speak the word of God fearlessly.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲧϩⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲉⲩⲧⲏⲕ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲙⲣ̅ⲣⲉ. ⲥⲉⲧⲟⲗⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲁϫⲛ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲉϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
15 Some indeed also for envy and strife, but some also for good will, preach the Christ.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩⲫⲑⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩϯⲧⲱⲛ. ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲛⲁⲩ ⲥⲉⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲓ̈ϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
16 These indeed out of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the glad tidings;
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲉⲩⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲕⲏ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲁⲡⲟⲗⲟⲅⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ.
17 but those out of contention, announce the Christ, not purely, supposing to arouse tribulation for my bonds.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϯⲧⲱⲛ ⲉⲩⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟ ⲁⲛ. ⲉⲩⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲉⲥⲟⲩⲑⲗⲓⲯⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲙⲣ̅ⲣⲉ.
18 What is it then? at any rate, in every way, whether in pretext or in truth, Christ is announced; and in this I rejoice, yea, also I will rejoice;
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲉϣⲁⲣⲉⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ϣⲱⲡⲉ. ⲡⲗⲏⲛ ϫⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲥⲙⲟⲧ ⲛⲓⲙ. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲗⲟⲉⲓϭⲉ. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲉ ⲥⲉⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅· ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲣⲁϣⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ϯⲛⲁⲣⲁϣⲉ.
19 for I know that this shall turn out for me to salvation, through your supplication and [the] supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ;
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲭⲟⲣⲏⲅⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
20 according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but in all boldness, as always, now also Christ shall be magnified in my body whether by life or by death.
ⲕ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲁϭⲱϣⲧ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲁϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲓ̈ϫⲓϣⲓⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲛ̅ⲡⲁⲣϩⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ϥⲛⲁⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲓ̈ ⲟⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲥⲱⲙⲁ. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲣⲁⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲣⲁⲙⲟⲩ.
21 For for me to live [is] Christ, and to die gain;
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲣⲁⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩϩⲏⲩ ⲡⲉ.
22 but if to live in flesh [is my lot], this is for me worth the while: and what I shall choose I cannot tell.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲉϣϫⲉϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲣⲁⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲁⲣⲝ̅ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲟⲩⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲡⲉ. ⲉⲓ̈ⲉ ⲁϣ ⲡⲉϯⲛⲁⲥⲟⲧⲡϥ̅. ⲛ̅ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ.
23 But I am pressed by both, having the desire for departure and being with Christ, [for] [it is] very much better,
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲥⲉⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲥⲛⲁⲩ· ⲡⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϥⲥⲟⲧⲡ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ.
24 but remaining in the flesh [is] more necessary for your sakes;
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲡϭⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲁⲣⲝ̅ ⲟⲩⲁⲛⲁⲅⲕⲁⲓⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅.
25 and having confidence of this, I know that I shall remain and abide along with you all, for your progress and joy in faith;
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲓ̈ⲛⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈. ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲁϭⲱ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲛⲁⲙⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅. ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲣⲟⲕⲟⲡⲏ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ.
26 that your boasting may abound in Christ Jesus through me by my presence again with you.
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⲣ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲣⲁⲉⲓ ⲟⲛ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅.
27 Only conduct yourselves worthily of the glad tidings of the Christ, in order that whether coming and seeing you, or absent, I may hear of what concerns you, that ye stand firm in one spirit, with one soul, labouring together in the same conflict with the faith of the glad tidings;
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲙⲟⲛⲟⲛ ⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲙⲡϣⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲧⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲉⲛϯϩⲁⲧⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲁⲛ ⲧⲁⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲯⲩⲭⲏ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲁⲅⲱⲛⲓⲍⲉ ⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ.
28 and not frightened in anything by the opposers, which is to them a demonstration of destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God;
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲉⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲁⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧϯ ⲟⲩⲃⲏⲛ ⲉⲧⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲧⲁⲕⲟ· ⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲡⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲟⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ.
29 because to you has been given, as regards Christ, not only the believing on him but the suffering for him also,
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲭⲁⲣⲓⲍⲉ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲁⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲧⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϣⲡ̅ϩⲓⲥⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉϫⲱϥ.
30 having the same conflict which ye have seen in me, and now hear of in me.
