2 Corinthians 5
1 For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, everlasting, in the heavens. (aiōnios g166)
ⲁ̅ⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛⲃⲱⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲙⲁ⳿ⲛϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲧϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲁⲑⲙⲟⲩⲛⲕ ⳿ⲛϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉⲛⲉϩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲫⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ. (aiōnios g166)
2 For truly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,
ⲃ̅ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉⲛϥⲓ⳿ⲁϩⲟⲙ ⲉⲛϭⲓϣϣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϯϩⲓ⳿ⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲙⲁ⳿ⲛϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ.
3 since, after we have put it on, we will not be found naked.

4 For indeed we who are in this tent do groan, being burdened; not that we desire to be unclothed, but that we desire to be clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
ⲇ̅ⲕⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϧⲁ ⲛⲏ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲡ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲁⲓⲙⲁ⳿ⲛϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲧⲉⲛϥⲓ⳿ⲁϩⲟⲙ ⲉⲛϩⲟⲣϣ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲁϣⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲁϩⲉⲙ ⲧⲏⲓϥ ϩⲓⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉⲱⲙⲕ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲉϣⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲱⲛϧ.
5 Now he who made us for this very thing is God, who also gave to us the down payment of the Spirit.

6 Therefore, we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord;

7 for we walk by faith, not by sight.

8 We are of good courage, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be at home with the Lord.

9 Therefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well pleasing to him.

10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

11 Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade people, but we are revealed to God; and I hope that we are revealed also in your consciences.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϯϩⲟϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ⲧⲉⲛⲑⲱⲧ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ϯ ⲉⲣϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲟⲩⲟⲛϩⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲕⲉⲥⲩⲛⲏⲇⲏⲥⲓⲥ.
12 We are not commending ourselves to you again, but speak as giving you occasion of boasting on our behalf, that you may have something to answer those who boast in appearance, and not in heart.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲁⲛⲧⲁϩⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲕⲉⲥⲟⲡ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲛϯⲗⲱⲓϫⲓ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲛⲏ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡϩⲟ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲛ.
13 For if we are out of control, it is for God. If we are in a reasonable way, it is for you.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲥⲓϩⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲓⲉ ⲁⲛⲥⲓϩⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲕⲁϯ ⲓⲉ ⲁⲛⲕⲁϯ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ.
14 For the love of Christ constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ϯⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲥ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲁⲛϯϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲉⲫⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲣⲁ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩ.
15 He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲛⲏ ⲉⲧⲟⲛϧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲱⲛϧ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ.
16 Therefore we know no one after the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we no longer know him in this way.

17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Look, new things have come.

18 But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation;
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⲛⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁϥϩⲟⲧⲡⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲉⲙϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲱⲧⲡ.
19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⲛⲁϥϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥϩⲱⲧⲡ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϥⲱⲡ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲁⲡⲧⲱⲙⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲭⲱ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲱⲧⲡ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲉⲛ.
20 We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
