Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle (not from humans, nor through humans, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead),
ⲁ̅·ⲧⲉⲡⲣⲟⲥ· ·ⲅⲁⲗⲁⲧⲁⲥ· ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲡⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲡⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲛ. ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲛ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ.
2 and all the brothers who are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲅⲁⲗⲁⲧⲓⲁ.
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ,
ⲅ̅ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ϯⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father— (aiōn g165)
ⲇ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲁⲁϥ ϩⲁⲛⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲉ. ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲧⲟⲩϫⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲁⲓⲱⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲛⲏⲣⲟⲛ. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲉⲓⲱⲧ (aiōn g165)
ⲉ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲉⲡⲱϥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ϣⲁⲛⲓⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲛ̅ⲉⲛⲉϩ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ· (aiōn g165)
6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you by the grace of Christ to a different "good news";
ⲋ̅ϯⲣ̅ϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓϩⲉ ϩⲛⲟⲩϭⲉⲡⲏ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲱⲱⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲉϩⲙⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲕⲉⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ
7 and there is not another "good news." Only there are some who trouble you, and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.
ⲍ̅ⲉⲙⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲉⲓⲙⲏⲧⲉⲓ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲉⲩϣⲧⲟⲣⲧⲣ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲉⲡⲉⲛⲉⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅
8 But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a "good news" other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.
ⲏ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲕⲁⲛ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ. ⲏ̅ ⲟⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲉ. ⲛϥ̅ⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲛⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲓ̈ϣ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲃⲏⲧ.
9 As we have said before, so I now say again: if anyone preaches to you a "good news" other than that which you received, let him be cursed.
ⲑ̅ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲛϣⲣⲡ̅ϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲟⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲓⲧϥ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲃⲏⲧ.
10 For am I now seeking the favor of people, or of God? Or am I striving to please people? For if I were still pleasing people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
ⲓ̅ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲓ̈ⲡⲓⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϫⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲏ̅ ⲉⲉⲓϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲁⲣⲉⲥⲕⲉ ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ⲉⲛⲉⲉⲓⲁⲣⲉⲥⲕⲉ ϭⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲉⲁⲛⲅ̅ⲡϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅·
11 But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not of human origin.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ϯⲧⲁⲙⲟ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧ ϫⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲁⲧⲁⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ.
12 For neither did I receive it from a human, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓϫⲓⲧϥ̅ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩⲧⲥⲁⲃⲟⲓ̈ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩϭⲱⲗⲡ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
13 For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how I severely persecuted the church of God, and tried to destroy it.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲛⲁϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲉⲓ̈ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲉⲓⲇⲓⲱⲕⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲉⲓϣⲱϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ.
14 I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲉⲓ̈ⲡⲣⲟⲕⲟⲡⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲉϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲧⲁϭⲟⲧ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲅⲉⲛⲟⲥ. ⲉⲉⲓⲟ ⲛ̅ⲣⲉϥⲕⲱϩ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲟⲥⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲉⲓⲟⲧⲉ.
15 But when God, who had set me apart from my mother's womb and called me through his grace, was pleased
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲣϩⲛⲁϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲡⲟⲣϫⲧ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲓⲛⲉⲉⲓⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲧⲁϩⲙⲉⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲧ
16 to reveal his Son to me, that I might preach him among those who are not Jewish, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉϭⲗⲡ̅ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲉⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁϩⲧ̅ ⲉⲥⲁⲣⲝ̅ ϩⲓⲥⲛⲟϥ.
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲥⲟⲗⲩⲙⲁ ϣⲁⲛⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲧϩⲁⲧⲁϩⲏ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲓ̈ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲧⲁⲣⲁⲃⲓⲁ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ⲁⲓ̈ⲕⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲇⲁⲙⲁⲥⲕⲟⲥ·
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Cephas and get information from him, and stayed with him fifteen days.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁϣⲟⲙⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲣⲟⲙⲡⲉ ⲁⲓ̈ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲥⲟⲗⲩⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲕⲏⲫⲁ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲓ̈ϭⲱ ϩⲁϩⲧⲏϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲏ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ.
19 But of the other apostles I saw no one, except James, the Lord's brother.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉϭⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲓⲙⲏ ⲓ̈ⲁⲕⲱⲃⲟⲥ ⲡⲥⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ.
20 Now about the things which I write to you, look, before God, I'm not lying.
ⲕ̅ⲛⲉϯⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲓⲥϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ϯϫⲓϭⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ·
21 Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲥ ⲁⲓ̈ⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲓⲕⲗⲓⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲩⲣⲓⲁ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲕⲓⲗⲓⲕⲓⲁ.
22 I was still unknown by face to the churches of Judea which were in Christ,
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲟ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ϯⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲁ ⲉⲧϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
23 but they only heard: "He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy."
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲙⲟⲛⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲇⲓⲱⲕⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ. ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ϥⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲉⲛⲉϥϣⲱϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲓⲧⲉ.
24 And they glorified God because of me.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩϯⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ·
