1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul called to be an Apostle of Iesus Christ, through the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,

2 Vnto the Church of God, which is at Corinthus, to them that are sanctified in Christ Iesus, Saintes by calling, with all that call on the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ in euery place, both their Lord, and ours:

5 That in all things ye are made rich in him, in all kinde of speach, and in all knowledge:

8 Who shall also confirme you vnto the ende, that ye may be blamelesse, in the day of our Lord Iesus Christ.

9 God is faithfull, by whom ye are called vnto the fellowship of his Sonne Iesus Christ our Lord.

10 Nowe I beseeche you, brethren, by the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ, that ye all speake one thing, and that there be no dissensions among you: but be ye knit together in one mind, and in one iudgement.
ⲓ̅ⲧⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲣⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉϫⲱ ⲙⲡⲓϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲙⲡⲱⲣϫ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲃⲧⲱⲧ ϩⲙ ⲡⲓϩⲏⲧ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲙⲛϯⲅⲛⲱⲙⲏ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ
11 For it hath bene declared vnto me, my brethren, of you by them that are of the house of Cloe, that there are contentions among you.

12 Nowe this I say, that euery one of you saith, I am Pauls, and I am Apollos, and I am Cephas, and I am Christs.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ϯϫⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲁⲛⲅ ⲡⲁ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲛⲅ ⲡⲁ ⲁⲡⲟⲗⲗⲱ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲛⲅ ⲡⲁ ⲕⲏⲫⲁ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲛⲅ ⲡⲁ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ
13 Is Christ deuided? was Paul crucified for you? either were ye baptized into the name of Paul?
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲙⲏ ⲛⲧⲁⲩⲡⲱϣ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲙⲏ ⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲧⲁⲩⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲏ ⲛⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲓ ⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲉⲡⲣⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ
14 I thanke God, that I baptized none of you, but Crispus, and Gaius,
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ϯϣⲡϩⲙⲟⲧ ϫⲉ ⲙⲡⲓⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲛⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲕⲣⲓⲥⲡⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ ⲅⲁⲓⲟⲥ
15 Lest any should say, that I had baptized into mine owne name.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲛⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲣⲁⲛ
16 I baptized also the houshold of Stephanas: furthermore knowe I not, whether I baptized any other.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲓⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲕⲉⲏⲉⲓ ⲛⲥⲧⲉⲫⲁⲛⲁ ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲱⲥ ϭⲉ ⲛϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲛϭⲉ
17 For CHRIST sent me not to baptize, but to preache the Gospel, not with wisdome of wordes, lest the crosse of Christ should be made of none effect.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲛⲧⲁ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲛⲛⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲍⲉ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲫⲓⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲛⲛⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉϥϣⲟⲩⲉⲓⲧ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲉⲥⲧⲁⲩⲣⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ
18 For that preaching of the crosse is to them that perish, foolishnesse: but vnto vs, which are saued, it is the power of God.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲡⲉⲥⲧⲁⲩⲣⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲥⲟϭ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲁϩⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲁⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⲟⲩϭⲟⲙ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisedome of the wise, and will cast away the vnderstanding of the prudent.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϥⲥⲏϩ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲁⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⲛⲧⲥⲟⲫⲓⲁ ⲛⲛⲥⲟⲫⲟⲥ ⲧⲁⲁⲑⲉⲧⲉⲓ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲥⲁⲃⲉ ⲛⲛⲥⲁⲃⲉⲉⲩ
20 Where is the wise? where is the Scribe? where is the disputer of this worlde? hath not God made the wisedome of this worlde foolishnesse? (aiōn g165)
ⲕ̅ⲉϥⲧⲱⲛ ⲥⲟⲫⲟⲥ ⲉϥⲧⲱⲛ ⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ ⲉϥⲧⲱⲛ ⲥⲩⲛⲍⲏⲧⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲓⲁⲓⲱⲛ ⲙⲏ ⲙⲡⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲛⲧⲥⲟⲫⲓⲁ ⲙⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲥⲟϭ (aiōn g165)
21 For seeing the worlde by wisedome knewe not God in the wisedome of GOD, it pleased God by the foolishnesse of preaching to saue them that beleeue:
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲡⲉⲓⲇⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲛ ⲧⲥⲟⲫⲓⲁ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲉ ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲥⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲧⲥⲟⲫⲓⲁ ⲁϥⲣϩⲛⲁϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲟⲩϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲥⲟϭ ⲙⲡⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ
22 Seeing also that the Iewes require a signe, and the Grecians seeke after wisdome.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲡⲉⲓⲇⲏ ⲛⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ϩⲉⲛⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲓⲧⲓ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲛϩⲉⲗⲗⲏⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲫⲓⲁ
23 But wee preach Christ crucified: vnto the Iewes, euen a stumbling blocke, and vnto the Grecians, foolishnesse:
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲓϣ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲉⲁⲩⲥⲧⲁⲩⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲕⲁⲛⲇⲁⲗⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲥⲟϭ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲛϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ
24 But vnto them which are called, both of the Iewes and Grecians, we preach Christ, the power of God, and the wisedome of God.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲛⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲧⲁϩⲙ ⲙⲛ ⲛϩⲉⲗⲗⲏⲛ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲟⲩϭⲟⲙ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲟⲫⲓⲁ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ
25 For the foolishnesse of God is wiser then men, and the weakenesse of God is stronger then men.
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ϫⲉ ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲥⲟϭ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲥⲁⲃⲉ ⲧⲉ ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲙⲛⲧϭⲱⲃ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲥϫⲟⲟⲣ ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ
26 For brethren, you see your calling, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called.
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛϭⲱϣⲧ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲡⲉⲧⲛⲧⲱϩⲙ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ϫⲉ ⲙⲛ ϩⲁϩ ⲛⲥⲟⲫⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲙⲛ ϩⲁϩ ⲛⲇⲩⲛⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ ϩⲁϩ ⲛⲉⲩⲅⲉⲛⲏⲥ
27 But God hath chosen the foolish thinges of the world to confound the wise, and God hath chosen the weake thinges of the worlde, to confound the mightie things,
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲥⲟϭ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲥⲟⲧⲡⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲛⲛⲥⲁⲃⲉⲉⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϭⲱⲃ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲥⲟⲧⲡⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲛⲛϫⲱⲱⲣⲉ
28 And vile things of the worlde and thinges which are despised, hath God chosen, and thinges which are not, to bring to nought thinges that are,
