Acts 5
1 And a certain man, Ananias by name, with his wife Sapphira, sold a possession,
ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲛⲁⲛⲓⲁⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲡⲡⲓⲣⲁ ⲧⲉϥⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ. ⲁϥϯⲟⲩϭⲱⲙ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
2 and kept back of the price—his wife also knowing—and having brought a certain part, he laid [it] at the feet of the apostles.
ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϥⲓ ⲉⲃⲟϩ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲁⲥⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉϥⲕⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ. ⲁϥⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲕⲁⲁϥ ϩⲁⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ.
3 And Peter said, “Ananias, why did Satan fill your heart, for you to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back of the price of the place?
ⲅ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲁⲛⲓⲁ. ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⲁⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ⲙⲟⲩϩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲕϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲕϫⲓϭⲟⲗ ⲉⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲅ̅ϥⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡϭⲱⲙ.
4 While it remained, did it not remain yours? And having been sold, was it not in your authority? Why [is] it that you put this thing in your heart? You did not lie to men, but to God”;
ⲇ̅ⲙⲏ ⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲕⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲕⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ. ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⲁⲕⲕⲁⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲕϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲡⲟⲛⲏⲣⲟⲛ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲕϫⲓϭⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
5 and Ananias hearing these words, having fallen down, expired, and great fear came on all who heard these things,
ⲉ̅ⲉϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲁⲛⲁⲛⲓⲁⲥ ⲁϥϩⲉ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ϩⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅.
6 and having risen, the younger men wound him up, and having carried forth, they buried [him].
ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ϩⲣ̅ϣⲓⲣⲉ ⲁⲩⲕⲟⲟⲥϥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϫⲓⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲩⲧⲟⲙⲥϥ̅·
7 And it came to pass, about three hours after, that his wife, not knowing what has happened, came in,
ⲍ̅ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁϣⲟⲙⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ. ⲧⲉϥⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛⲥ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ. ⲁⲥⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ
8 and Peter answered her, “Tell me if for so much you sold the place”; and she said, “Yes, for so much.”
ⲏ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁϫⲓⲥ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϯⲡϭⲱⲙ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁⲛⲉⲓ̈ϩⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉϩⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲁⲓ̈.
9 And Peter said to her, “How was it agreed by you to tempt the Spirit of the LORD? Behold, the feet of those who buried your husband [are] at the door, and they will carry you forth”;
ⲑ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϥⲓ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲉⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ. ⲉⲓⲥⲛⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲱⲙⲥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲥⲉϩⲓⲣⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϥⲓⲧⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
10 and immediately she fell down at his feet, and expired, and the young men having come in, found her dead, and having carried forth, they buried [her] by her husband;
ⲓ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲥϩⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲥⲙⲟⲩ. ⲁⲛϩⲣ̅ϣⲓⲣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲩϩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲉⲥⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ. ⲁⲩϥⲓⲧⲥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲁⲩⲧⲟⲙⲥ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲁⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲥϩⲁⲓ̈.
11 and great fear came on all the Assembly, and on all who heard these things.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲛⲁⲓ̈.
12 And through the hands of the apostles came many signs and wonders among the people, and they were all with one accord in the porch of Solomon;
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲇⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϭⲓϫ ⲛ̅ⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓϩⲉⲛⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ⲉⲛⲁϣⲱⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲡⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲥⲧⲟⲁ ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲗⲟⲙⲱⲛ.
13 and of the rest no one was daring to join himself to them, but the people were magnifying them,
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲇⲉ ϩⲙ̅ ⲡⲕⲉⲥⲉⲉⲡⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲧⲟⲗⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲟϭϥ̅ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ϯⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲩ
14 (and the more were believers added to the LORD, multitudes of both men and women),
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲩⲟⲩⲱϩ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ. ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϩⲓⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ.
15 so as to bring forth the ailing into the broad places, and to lay [them] on beds and pallets, that at the coming of Peter, even [his] shadow might overshadow someone of them;
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧϣⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲡⲗⲁⲧⲓⲁ. ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲕⲁⲁⲩ ϩⲓϩⲉⲛϭⲗⲟϭ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲧⲕ̅. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲉⲓ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉϥϩⲁⲓ̈ⲃⲉⲥ ⲧⲁϩⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ.
16 and there were also coming together the people of the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, carrying ailing persons, and those harassed by unclean spirits—who were all healed.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲛⲉϣⲁⲩⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲱⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲑⲓⲗⲏ̅ⲙ̅. ⲉⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧϣⲱⲛⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲕϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛ̅ⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲧⲟⲛ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩⲣ̅ⲡⲁϩⲣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ.
17 And having risen, the chief priest, and all those with him—being the sect of the Sadducees—were filled with zeal,
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲁϥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲑⲁⲓⲣⲉⲥⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲇⲇⲟⲩⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩϩ ⲛ̅ⲕⲱϩ.
18 and laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in a public prison;
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩϭⲓϫ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲛⲟϫⲟⲩ ⲉⲡⲉϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ.
19 but through the night a messenger of the LORD opened the doors of the prison, having also brought them forth, he said,
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲡⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩϣⲏ. ⲁϥⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ
20 “Go on, and standing, speak in the temple to the people all the sayings of this life”;
ⲕ̅ϫⲉ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲱⲛϩ̅.
21 and having heard, they entered into the temple at the dawn, and were teaching. And the chief priest having come, and those with him, they called together the Sanhedrin and all the Senate of the sons of Israel, and they sent to the prison to have them brought,
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϣⲱⲣⲡ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩϯⲥⲃⲱ. ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ. ⲁⲩⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲩⲛϩⲉⲇⲣⲓⲟⲛ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ϩⲗ̅ⲗⲟ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲗ. ⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲡⲉϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩ.
22 and the officers having come, did not find them in the prison, and having turned back, they told,
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲩⲡⲏⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩϭⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ. ⲁⲩⲕⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲙⲟⲟⲩ
23 saying, “We indeed found the prison shut in all safety, and the keepers standing outside before the doors, and having opened—we found no one within.”
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛϩⲉ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲉⲡⲉϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ ⲉϥϣⲟⲧⲙ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲱⲣϫ̅ ⲛⲓⲙ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩⲣ̅ϣⲉ ⲉⲩⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲣⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲟ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛ̅ϭⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲛ.
24 And as the priest, and the magistrate of the temple, and the chief priests, heard these words, they were doubting concerning them to what this would come;
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲥⲧⲣⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲁⲩⲁⲡⲟⲣⲣⲓ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧⲟⲩ.
25 and coming near, a certain one told them, saying, “Behold, the men whom you put in the prison are in the temple standing and teaching the people”;
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲙⲟⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲟϫⲟⲩ ⲉⲡⲉϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ ⲥⲉⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲉⲩϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ.
26 then the magistrate having gone away with officers, brought them without violence, for they were fearing the people, lest they should be stoned;
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲥⲧⲣⲁⲧⲏⲕⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲩⲡⲏⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩ ⲛϫⲛⲁϩ ⲁⲛ. ⲛⲉⲩⲣ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲙⲏⲡⲱⲥ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϩⲓⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ.
27 and having brought them, they set [them] in the Sanhedrin, and the chief priest questioned them,
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲧⲁϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲩⲛϩⲉⲇⲣⲓⲟⲛ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϫⲛⲟⲩⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ
28 saying, “Did we not strictly command you not to teach in this Name? And behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and you intend to bring on us the blood of this Man.”
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲏ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲅⲅⲓⲗⲉ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅. ⲉⲧⲙ̅ϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲣⲁⲛ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲓⲥϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲙⲟⲩϩ ⲛ̅ⲑⲓⲗⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲃⲱ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲉⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϫⲱⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ.
29 And Peter and the apostles answering, said, “It is required to obey God, rather than men;

31 this One, God, a Prince and a Savior, has exalted with His right hand, to give conversion to Israel, and forgiveness of sins;

32 and we are His witnesses of these sayings, and the Holy Spirit also, whom God gave to those obeying Him.”
ⲗ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ.
33 And they having heard, were cut [to the heart], and were intending to slay them,

34 but a certain one, having risen up in the Sanhedrin—a Pharisee, by name Gamaliel, a teacher of law honored by all the people—commanded to put the apostles forth a little,
ⲗ̅ⲇ̅ⲁϥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲇⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲩⲛϩⲉⲇⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲟⲩⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲅⲁⲙⲁⲗⲓⲏⲗ. ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲙⲟⲇⲓⲇⲁⲥⲕⲁⲗⲟⲥ ⲉϥⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲏⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϩⲣⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅. ⲁϥⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲣ̅ⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈.
35 and said to them, “Men, Israelites, take heed to yourselves about these men, what you are about to do,

36 for before these days Theudas rose up, saying that he was someone, to whom a number of men joined themselves, as it were four hundred, who was slain, and all, as many as were obeying him, were scattered, and came to nothing.

37 After this one, Judas the Galilean rose up, in the days of the census, and drew away people after him, and that one perished, and all, as many as were obeying him, were scattered;

38 and now I say to you, refrain from these men, and leave them alone, because if this counsel or this work may be of men, it will be overthrown,

39 and if it be of God, you are not able to overthrow it, lest perhaps you are also found fighting against God.”

40 And to him they agreed, and having called near the apostles, having beaten [them], they commanded [them] not to speak in the Name of Jesus, and let them go;

41 they, indeed, then, departed from the presence of the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that for His Name they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor,

42 also every day in the temple, and in every house, they were not ceasing teaching and proclaiming good news—Jesus the Christ.
