2 Corinthians 2
1 And I decided this to myself, not to come again to you in sorrow,
ⲁ̅ⲁⲓ̈ⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲉⲓ ⲟⲛ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲗⲩⲡⲏ.
2 for if I make you sorry, then who is he who is making me glad, except he who is made sorry by me?
ⲃ̅ⲉϣϫⲉⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲉⲓ̈ⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲉⲩⲫⲣⲁⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲓⲙⲏⲧⲉⲓ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧ.
3 And I wrote to you this same thing, that having come, I may not have sorrow from them of whom it was necessary [for] me to have joy, having confidence in you all, that my joy is of you all,
ⲅ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲥⲉϩⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲛⲛⲁⲉⲓ ⲧⲁⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉϣϣⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲁⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ. ⲉⲓ̈ⲕⲱ ⲛ̅ϩⲧⲏⲓ̈ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲡⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅ ⲡⲉ.
4 for out of much tribulation and pressure of heart I wrote to you through many tears, not that you might be made sorry, but that you might know the love that I have more abundantly toward you.
ⲇ̅ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲑⲗⲓⲯⲓⲥ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲗⲱϫϩ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲓ̈ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲣⲙ̅ⲉⲓⲏ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲉⲧⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲉⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅.
5 And if anyone has caused sorrow, he has not caused sorrow to me, but in part, that I may not burden you all;
ⲉ̅ⲉϣϫⲉⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲁⲛ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲡⲟⲙⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲛⲁⲉⲡⲓⲃⲁⲣⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅.
6 sufficient to such a one is this punishment, that [is] by the greater part,
ⲋ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲡⲓⲧⲓⲙⲓⲁ ϭⲉ ⲣⲱϣⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲟⲩⲟ.
7 so that, on the contrary, [it is] rather for you to forgive and to comfort, lest by over abundant sorrow such a one may be swallowed up;
ⲍ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲕⲱ ⲛⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲡⲥⲱⲡϥ̅. ⲙⲏⲡⲟⲧⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϩⲟⲩⲉⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲱⲙⲕ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓⲙⲓⲛⲉ·
8 for this reason, I call on you to confirm love to him,
ⲏ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϯⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲙⲁⲧⲁϫⲣⲟ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
9 for this also I wrote, that I might know your proof, whether you are obedient in regard to all things.
ⲑ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲏ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲥⲧⲙⲏⲧ ϩⲛ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ.
10 And to whom you forgive anything—I also; for I also, if I have forgiven anything, to whom I have forgiven [it], because of you—in the person of Christ—[I forgive it, ]
ⲓ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲕⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϯⲕⲱ ϩⲱ. ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲕⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϩⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
11 that we may not be over-reached by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲛⲛⲉⲩϩⲟⲩⲣⲱⲱⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲃϣ̅ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲉϥⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ·
12 And having come to Troas for the good news of the Christ, and a door having been opened to me in the LORD,
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲓⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲣⲱⲁⲥ ⲉⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲣⲟ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ.
13 I have not had rest to my spirit, on my not finding my brother Titus, but having taken leave of them, I went forth to Macedonia;
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲙ̅ⲧⲟⲛ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓϩⲉ ⲉⲧⲓⲧⲟⲥ ⲡⲁⲥⲟⲛ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲓⲁⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲓ̈ⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲧⲙⲁⲕⲉⲇⲟⲛⲓⲁ.
14 and to God [is] thanks, who at all times is leading us in triumph in the Christ, and the fragrance of His knowledge He is revealing through us in every place;
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϣⲏⲡ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧϫⲁⲓ̈ⲟ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲥⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲙⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ.
15 we are a refreshing fragrance to God because of Christ, in those being saved, and in those being lost;
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛⲟⲩⲥϯⲛⲟⲩϥⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲁⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲁⲧⲁⲕⲟ.
16 to one, indeed, a fragrance of death to death, and to the other, a fragrance of life to life; and who is sufficient for these things?
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲛ̅ⲥⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲡⲙⲟⲩ. ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲡⲱⲛϩ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϩⲣⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁ.
17 For we are not as the many, adulterating the word of God, but as of sincerity—but as of God; in the presence of God, in Christ we speak.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲟ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲉⲧⲟ ⲛⲉϣⲱⲧ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅·
