< 1 John 1 >

1 It is of what has existed from the beginning, of what we have listened to, of what we have seen with our own eyes, of what we have witnessed and touched with our own heads, it is concerning the Logos of Life that we are now writing.
ⲁ̅ⲫⲏⲉⲧϣⲟⲡ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ϩⲏ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲛⲥⲟⲑⲙⲉϥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲃⲁⲗ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲛⲥⲟⲙⲥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁ ⲛⲉⲛϫⲓϫ ϫⲉⲙϫⲱⲙϥ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲱⲛϧ.
2 And the Life was made visible, and we have seen it and are bearing witness, and are bringing you word of that Eternal Life which was face to face with the Father and was made visible to us. (aiōnios g166)
ⲃ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲱⲛϧ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲉⲛⲧⲁⲙⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲫⲏⲉⲧϣⲟⲡ ϩⲁ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲛ. (aiōnios g166)
3 It is what we have seen and heard that we are announcing to you, in order that you also may have partnership with us; and our partnership is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
ⲅ̅ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲛⲥⲟⲑⲙⲉϥ ⲧⲉⲛϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲧ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲥⲭⲏ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲓ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
4 And we are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.
ⲇ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲣⲁϣⲓ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉϥϫⲏⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
5 This, then, is the message that we have heard from him, and are announcing to you, that God is light, and no darkness what ever is in him.
ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲱϣ ⲉⲧⲁⲛⲥⲟⲑⲙⲉϥ ⲧⲉⲛϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ.
6 If we say, "We have partnership with Him," when we are passing our life in the darkness, we are lying and are not doing the truth.
ⲋ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛϫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧ⳿ϣⲫⲏ ⲣ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲛⲙⲟϣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ ⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲉⲛϫⲉⲙⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲁⲛ.
7 But is we are passing our life in the light, as he is in the light, we ever have partnership with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ is cleansing us from every sin.
ⲍ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛⲙⲟϣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ϩⲱϥ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲡ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⳿ⲛⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲧⲟⲩⲃⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁ ⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ.
8 If we say, "We have no sin," we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.
ⲏ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛϫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣϩⲁⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲉⲛ ⲁⲛ.
9 But if we confess our sins, faithful is he and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all wrong-doing.
ⲑ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ϥⲉⲛϩⲟⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲡⲉ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲭⲁ ⲛⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲧⲟⲩⲃⲟⲛ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϭⲓ⳿ⲛϫⲟⲛⲥ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ.
10 If we say, "We have not sinned," we are making him a liar, and his word is not in us.
ⲓ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛϫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁⲙⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲁϫⲓ ϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲉⲛ ⲁⲛ
