< 2 Corinthians 13 >

1 This is the third time I am coming to you. "At the mouth of two or three witnesses will every word be established."
ⲁ̅ⲡⲙⲉϩϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ϯⲛⲏⲩ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲧⲧⲁⲡⲣⲟ ⲙⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲏ ϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲉⲣⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ
2 I have said beforehand, and I do say beforehand, as when I was present the second time, so now, being absent, to those who have sinned before now, and to all the rest, that, if I come again, I will not spare;
ⲃ̅ⲁⲓϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲓⲛ ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ϯϣⲣⲡ ϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲉⲓϩⲁⲧⲉ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲙⲡⲙⲉϩⲥⲉⲡ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲛϯϩⲁⲧⲛ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲉⲓⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲣⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϫⲓⲛ ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲕⲉⲥⲉⲉⲡⲉ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲛⲕⲉⲥⲟⲡ ⲛϯⲛⲁϯⲥⲟ ⲁⲛ
3 seeing that you seek a proof of Christ who speaks in me; who toward you is not weak, but is powerful in you.
ⲅ̅ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲧⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲏ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲛϥⲟ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲁⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϥϭⲙϭⲟⲙ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ
4 For indeed he was crucified through weakness, yet he lives through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we will live with him through the power of God toward you.
ⲇ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲧⲁⲩⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲥⲑⲉⲛⲓⲁ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϥⲟⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϩⲱⲱⲛ ⲧⲛϭⲟⲟⲃ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲧⲛⲛⲁⲱⲛϩ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ
5 Test your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves. Or do you not know as to your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.
ⲉ̅ϫⲛⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛϩⲛ ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲁⲍⲉ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲏ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲉⲓⲙⲏⲧⲓ ϫⲉ ⲙⲉϣⲁⲕ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ϩⲉⲛϫⲟⲟⲩⲧ
6 But I hope that you will know that we are not disqualified.
ⲋ̅ϯⲛⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲉⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲁⲛϩⲉⲛϫⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲛ
7 Now we pray to God that you do no evil; not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is honorable, though we are as reprobate.
ⲍ̅ϯϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲙⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛⲣ ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲙⲡⲉⲑⲟⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲥⲱⲧⲡ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲛⲧⲱⲧⲛ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲣⲡ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲱⲥ ⲥⲱⲧⲡ ⲁⲛ
8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
ⲏ̅ⲙⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲉϯ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲧⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϫⲛ ⲧⲙⲉ
9 For we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. And this we also pray for, even your perfecting.
ⲑ̅ⲧⲛⲛⲁⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲉⲛϣⲁⲛϭ ⲃⲃⲉ ⲛⲧⲱⲧⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲟⲟⲣ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲣⲱ ⲡⲉⲧⲛϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲥⲟⲃⲧⲉ
10 For this cause I write these things while absent, that I may not deal sharply when present, according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for tearing down.
ⲓ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛϯϩⲁⲧⲉ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲁⲛ ϯⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲛⲛⲁⲓ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲛⲛⲁⲉⲓ ⲧⲁⲭⲣⲱ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩϣⲱⲱⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲛⲧⲁ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲧⲁⲁⲥ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲩⲕⲱⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲣϣⲣ ⲁⲛ
11 Finally, brothers, rejoice. Be perfected, be comforted, be of the same mind, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

12 Greet one another with a holy kiss.

13 All the saints greet you.

14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
