< John 1 >
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
ⲁ̅ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲛⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲁϥⲭⲏ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
ⲃ̅ⲫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϥⲭⲏ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ϩⲏ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ.
3 All things were made through him; and without him was nothing made that hath been made.

4 In him is life; and the life was the light of men.
ⲇ̅ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲡⲱⲛϧ ⲡⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲡⲱⲛϧ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲫⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲡⲉ.
5 And the light hath been shining in the darkness; and the darkness received it not.
ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲧⲁϩⲟϥ.
6 There was a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
ⲋ̅ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲁⲩⲟⲩⲟⲣⲡϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲓⲱⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ.
7 He came as a witness, to bear witness of the light, that through him all might believe.
ⲍ̅ⲫⲁⲓ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⲉⲩⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϧⲁ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧϥ.
8 He was not the light, but came to bear witness of the light.
ⲏ̅ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϧⲁ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ.
9 The true light, which enlighteneth every man, was coming into the world.
ⲑ̅ⲛⲁϥϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲙⲏⲓ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world knew him not.
ⲓ̅ⲛⲁϥⲭⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛϥ.
11 He came to his own, and his own received him not.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩϣⲟⲡϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ.
12 But as many as received him, to them he gave power to become children of God, —to those who believed in his name;
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲛⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲩϣⲟⲡϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲁϥϯⲉⲣϣⲓϣⲓ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ.
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲛⲏ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲙⲁⲥⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ.
14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; and we beheld his glory, a glory as of an only begotten of a father.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲓⲱⲧ ⲉϥⲙⲉϩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ.
15 John beareth witness of him, and crieth, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that cometh after me hath gone before me; for he was before me.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲓⲱⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⳿ϥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲓϫⲟϥ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧϥ ϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲱⲓ ⲁϥⲉⲣϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⲣⲱ ⲡⲉ.
16 For out of his fullness have we all received, and grace upon grace.

17 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲧⲏⲓϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲡⲓ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲁⲩϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
18 No one hath ever seen God; the only begotten God, who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath made him known.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲫϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲡⲓⲙⲟⲛⲟⲅⲉⲛⲏ ⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲭⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⲕⲉⲛϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲓⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲡⲉⲧⲁϥⲥⲁϫⲓ.
19 And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, Who art thou?
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲓⲱⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲣⲡ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲏⲃ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛⲗⲉⲩⲓⲧⲏⲥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩϣⲉⲛϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⲛⲓⲙ.
20 And he declared, and did not deny; and he declared, I am not the Christ.
ⲕ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥϫⲱⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he said, I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered, No.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϣⲉⲛϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲏⲗⲓⲁⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ.
22 They said therefore to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those who sent us; what sayest thou of thyself?

23 He said, I am “a voice of one crying aloud in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord,” as said Isaiah the prophet.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ϯ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⲉⲧⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓ ⳿ⲡϣⲁϥⲉ ϫⲉ ⲥⲟⲩⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲓⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲏⲥⲁ⳿ⲓⲁⲥ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏ ⲧⲏⲥ.
24 And they were sent from the Pharisees;
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲣⲡ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ.
25 and they asked him and said to him, Why then dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϣⲉⲛϥ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⳿ⲕϯⲱⲙⲥ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲏⲗⲓⲁⲥ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
26 John answered them, saying, I baptize in water. There standeth one among you whom ye know not,

27 he who cometh after me, the latchet of whose sandal I am not worthy to loose.

28 These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

29 The next day he seeth Jesus coming to him, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world!

31 And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, therefore I came baptizing in water.

32 And John bore witness, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove from heaven, and it abode upon him.

33 And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptize in water, the same said to me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, he it is that baptizeth in the Holy Spirit.

35 On the morrow John was again standing, and two of his disciples;

36 and looking upon Jesus as he was walking, he saith, Behold, the Lamb of God!

37 The two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.

38 Jesus turning and seeing them following, saith to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi, (that is to say, when interpreted, Teacher, ) where dost thou dwell?

39 He saith to them, Come, and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he dwelt; and they abode with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.

40 One of the two who heard what John said, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah; (which is, when interpreted, the Christ.)

42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said, Thou art Simon, the son of John; thou shalt be called Cephas; (which signifieth Peter, that is, Rock.)

43 On the morrow he determined to go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip. And Jesus saith to him, Follow me.

44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the Law, and the Prophets wrote, Jesus, the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.

46 And Nathanael said to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith to him, Come and see.
