< 1 Corinthians 11 >
1 Be yee followers of mee, euen as I am of Christ.
ⲁ̅ⲧⲛⲧⲛ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ ⲧⲛⲧⲱⲛⲧ ⲉⲡⲉⲭⲥ
2 Now brethren, I commend you, that ye remember all my things, and keepe the ordinances, as I deliuered them to you.
ⲃ̅ϯⲉⲡⲁⲓⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲁⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ϩⲛ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓϯ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ⲛⲙⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲟⲥⲓⲥ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ
3 But I wil that ye know, that Christ is the head of euery man: and the man is the womans head: and God is Christs head.
ⲅ̅ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛⲉⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲡⲉ ⲛϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲧⲁⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲥϩⲓ ⲙⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲧⲁⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
4 Euery man praying or prophecying hauing any thing on his head, dishonoureth his head.
ⲇ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉϥϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲏ ⲉϥⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉϥⲁⲡⲉ ϩⲟⲃⲥ ϥϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲛⲧⲉϥⲁⲡⲉ
5 But euery woman that prayeth or prophecieth bare headed, dishonoureth her head: for it is euen one very thing, as though she were shauen.
ⲉ̅ⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲥϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲏ ⲉⲥⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏ ⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲥⲁⲡⲉ ϭⲟⲗⲡ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲥϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲥⲁⲡⲉ ⲧⲉⲓϩⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲉⲓϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉ ϫⲱⲥ ϩⲟⲟⲕⲉ
6 Therefore if the woman be not couered, let her also be shorne: and if it be shame for a woman to be shorne or shauen, let her be couered.
ⲋ̅ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲥⲛⲁϩⲃⲥ ϫⲱⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲛϭⲓ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲥϣⲃ ϫⲱⲥ ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲟⲩϣⲗⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲡⲉ ϣⲃ ϫⲱⲥ ⲏ ϩⲉⲕⲉ ϫⲱⲥ ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲥϩⲃⲥ ϫⲱⲥ
7 For a man ought not to couer his head: for as much as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
ⲍ̅ⲡϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛϣϣⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉϩⲱⲃⲥ ⲛⲧⲉϥⲁⲡⲉ ⲉⲑⲓⲕⲱⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲉⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ
8 For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.
ⲏ̅ⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲓ ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲓ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ
9 For the man was not created for the womans sake: but the woman for the mans sake.
ⲑ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲛⲧ ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ
10 Therefore ought the woman to haue power on her head, because of the Angels.
ⲓ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ϣϣⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲕⲱ ⲛⲟⲩⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉϫⲛ ⲧⲉⲥⲁⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ
11 Neuertheles, neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man in the Lord.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲗⲏⲛ ⲙⲛ ⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲁϫⲛ ϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲛⲟⲩⲉϣ ⲛⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ
12 For as the woman is of the man, so is the man also by the woman: but all things are of God.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲑⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲙⲡϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲉⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲉⲛⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲉ
13 Iudge in your selues, Is it comely that a woman pray vnto God vncouered?
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲧⲱⲧⲛ ⲛϩⲏ ⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ϣϣⲉ ⲉⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲉϫⲱⲥ ϭⲟⲗⲡ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ
14 Doeth not nature it selfe teach you, that if a man haue long heare, it is a shame vnto him?
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲉⲓⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲉⲓⲕⲉⲫⲩⲥⲓⲥ ⲛⲁⲧⲥⲁⲃⲉ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲉϩ ϥⲱ ⲟⲩⲥⲱϣ ⲛⲁϥ ⲡⲉ
15 But if a woman haue long heare, it is a prayse vnto her: for her heare is giuen her for a couering.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲥϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲉϩ ϥⲱ ⲟⲩⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲥ ⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲡϥⲱ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲥ ⲉⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲟⲩⲣϣⲱⲛ
16 But if any man lust to be contentious, we haue no such custome, neither the Churches of God.

17 Nowe in this that I declare, I prayse you not, that ye come together, not with profite, but with hurt.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲡⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ϯⲡⲁⲣⲁⲅⲅⲉⲓⲗⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲓⲉⲡⲁⲓⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲩϫⲓⲥⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲩϩⲃⲃⲉ
18 For first of all, when ye come together in the Church, I heare that there are dissentions among you: and I beleeue it to be true in some part.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ϯⲥⲱⲧⲙ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲡⲱⲣϫ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ
19 For there must be heresies euen among you, that they which are approoued among you, might be knowen.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϩⲁⲡⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲣⲉ ϩⲉⲛϩⲁⲓⲣⲉⲥⲓⲥ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲣⲉⲛⲕⲉⲥⲱⲧⲡ ⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ
20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eate the Lords Supper.

21 For euery man when they should eate, taketh his owne supper afore, and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

22 Haue ye not houses to eate and to drinke in? despise ye the Church of God, and shame them that haue not? what shall I say to you? shall I prayse you in this? I prayse you not.

23 For I haue receiued of the Lord that which I also haue deliuered vnto you, to wit, That the Lord Iesus in the night when he was betrayed, tooke bread:
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲓϫⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓⲏⲥ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉⲩϣⲏ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲥ ⲁϥϫⲓ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓⲕ
24 And when hee had giuen thankes, hee brake it, and sayde, Take, eate: this is my body, which is broken for you: this doe ye in remembrance of me.

25 After the same maner also he tooke the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the Newe Testament in my blood: this doe as oft as ye drinke it, in remembrance of me.
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲁⲡⲟⲧ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲓϩⲉ ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲁ ⲧⲣⲉⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲓⲁⲡⲟⲧ ⲡⲉ ⲧⲇⲓⲁⲑⲏⲕⲏ ⲛⲃⲣⲣⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡⲁⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲁⲣⲓ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲛⲧⲁⲡⲥ ⲛⲥⲟⲡ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲥⲱ ⲉⲡⲁⲣⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ
26 For as often as ye shall eate this bread, and drinke this cup, ye shewe the Lords death till hee come.

27 Wherefore, whosoeuer shall eate this bread, and drinke the cup of the Lord vnworthily, shall be guiltie of the body and blood of the Lord.

28 Let euery man therefore examine himselfe, and so let him eate of this bread, and drinke of this cup.

29 For he that eateth and drinketh vnworthily, eateth and drinketh his owne damnation, because he discerneth not the Lords body.
