1 Corinthians 16
1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I commanded the churches of Galatia, you do likewise.
ⲁ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲟⲩⲱϭⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧϫⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲧⲟϣⲥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲅⲁⲗⲁⲧⲓⲁ. ⲁⲣⲓⲥ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅
2 On the first day of the week, let each one of you save, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come.
ⲃ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲥⲟⲩⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ. ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲕⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲉϥⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧϥ̅ⲛⲁϩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲟⲩⲱϭⲥ̅ ϣⲱⲡⲉ.
3 When I arrive, I will send whoever you approve with letters to carry your gracious gift to Jerusalem.
ⲅ̅ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲁⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉϫⲟⲟⲩⲥⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲉϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲉⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ.
4 If it is appropriate for me to go also, they will go with me.
ⲇ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉϣϣⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲁⲃⲱⲕ ϩⲱ ⲥⲉⲛⲏⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈.
5 But I will come to you when I have passed through Macedonia, for I am passing through Macedonia.
ⲉ̅ϯⲛⲏⲩ ⲇⲉ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲁⲕⲉⲇⲟⲛⲓⲁ. ϯⲛⲏⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲁⲕⲉⲇⲟⲛⲓⲁ.
6 But with you it may be that I will stay, or even winter, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go.
ⲋ̅ⲙⲉϣⲁⲕ ⲇⲉ ϯⲛⲁϭⲱ ϩⲁⲧⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅. ⲏ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲣ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲣⲱ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲑⲡⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲡⲙⲁ ⲉϯⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
7 For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.
ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲉⲓⲡⲁⲣⲁⲅⲉ. ϯⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲣ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ϩⲁⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ.
8 But I will stay at Ephesus until Pentecost,
ⲏ̅ϯϭⲉⲉⲧ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲉⲫⲉⲥⲟⲥ ϣⲁⲧⲡⲉⲛⲧⲏⲕⲟⲥⲧⲏ.
9 for a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.
ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲣⲟ ⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ̈. ⲉϥⲉⲛⲉⲣⲅⲉⲓ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲁⲛⲧⲓⲕⲓⲙⲉⲛⲟⲥ·
10 Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he does the work of the Lord, as I also do.
ⲓ̅ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ ϯϩⲧⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲁϫⲛ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅. ⲡϩⲱⲃ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲡⲉⲧϥ̅ⲣ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϩⲉ.
11 Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲧⲣⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ϭⲉ ⲥⲟϣϥ̅. ⲙⲁⲑⲡⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲟⲓ̈. ϯϭⲱϣⲧ̅ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ·
12 Now concerning Apollos, the brother, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brothers; and it was not at all his desire to come now; but he will come when he has an opportunity.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲁⲡⲟⲗⲗⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲥⲟⲛ ⲁⲓ̈ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲉϣⲁⲕ ⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲱϣ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ. ϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛϩⲉ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ.
13 Watch. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲣⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ. ϫⲣⲟ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϭⲙ̅ϭⲟⲙ.
14 Let all that you do be done in love.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ·
15 Now I appeal to you, brothers (you know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first fruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to serve the saints),
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ϯⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ⲥⲧⲉⲫⲁⲛⲁ ϫⲉ ⲡϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲭⲁⲓ̈ⲁ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲕⲁⲁⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ.
16 that you also be in subjection to such, and to everyone who helps in the work and labors.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉϩⲩⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓⲙⲓⲛⲉ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲟ ⲛ̅ϣⲃⲣ̅ⲣ̅ϩⲱⲃ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧϩⲟⲥⲉ.
17 I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus; for that which was lacking on your part, they supplied.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϯⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲁⲣϩⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲥⲧⲉⲫⲁⲛⲁ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲫⲟⲣⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲧⲟⲥ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲁⲭⲁⲓ̈ⲕⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲉⲕⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲱⲱⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge those who are like that.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩϯⲙ̅ⲧⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅. ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲥⲟⲩⲛⲛⲁⲓ̈ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓⲙⲓⲛⲉ·
19 The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in the Lord, together with the church that is in their house.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲥⲉϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥⲓⲁ. ⲥⲉϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲁⲕⲩⲗⲁ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲣⲓⲥⲕⲁ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩϩⲥ̅ ⲉⲧϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲏⲉⲓ·
20 All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
ⲕ̅ⲥⲉϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ⲁⲥⲡⲁⲍⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉⲣⲏⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲓ ⲉⲥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ.
21 This greeting is by me, Paul, with my own hand.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲥⲡⲁⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲥϩⲁⲉⲓϥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϭⲓϫ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ.
22 If anyone does not love the Lord, a curse be on him. Our Lord, come.

23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

24 My love to all of you in Christ Jesus.
