2 Timothy 1
1 From Paul who, by the will of God, is an apostle of Christ Jesus, charged to proclaim the life that comes from union with Christ Jesus,
ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲡⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲉⲣⲏⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲱⲛϩ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅.
2 to Timothy, my dear child: may God, the Father, and Christ Jesus, our Lord, bless you, and be merciful to you, and give you peace.
ⲃ̅ⲉϥⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ ⲡⲙⲉⲣⲓⲧ ⲛ̅ϣⲏⲣⲉ. ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲛⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲱⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ·
3 I am thankful to God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, when I remember you, as I never fail to do, in my prayers – night and day alike,
ⲅ̅ϯϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϯϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲓⲛⲛⲁⲉⲓⲟⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲩⲛⲓⲇⲏⲥⲓⲥ ⲉⲥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲉϯⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲕⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲁϫⲛ̅ⲱϫⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩϣⲏ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ
4 as I think of your tears, longing to see you, that my happiness may be completed,
ⲇ̅ⲉⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ. ⲉⲉⲓⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲕⲣⲙ̅ⲉⲓⲏ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲙⲟⲩϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲣⲁϣⲉ.
5 now that I have been reminded of the sincere faith that you have shown. That faith was seen first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and is now, I am convinced, in you also.
ⲉ̅ⲉⲓ̈ϫⲓ ⲙⲡⲣ̅ⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲕ̅ ⲁϫⲛ̅ϩⲩⲡⲟⲕⲣⲓⲥⲓⲥ ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲥⲟⲩⲱϩ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲗⲱⲉⲓⲥ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲩⲛⲓⲕⲏ. ϯⲛⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ϫⲉ ⲥⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲕ̅.
6 And that is my reason for reminding you to stir into flame that gift of God, which is yours through your ordination at my hands.
ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϯⲧⲣⲉⲕⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲕϯⲟⲩⲣⲟⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲕ̅ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲁⲗⲟ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϭⲓϫ.
7 For the Spirit which God gave us was not a spirit of cowardice, but a spirit of power, love, and self-control.
ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧϭⲱⲃ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ. ϩⲓⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ϩⲓⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲙ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ.
8 Do not, therefore, be ashamed of the testimony which we have to bear to our Lord, or of me imprisoned for his sake; but join with me in suffering for the good news, as far as God enables you.
ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ. ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉⲧⲙⲏⲣ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϣⲡ̅ϩⲓⲥⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
9 It was God who saved us, and from him we received our solemn call – not as a reward for anything that we had done, but in fulfilment of his own loving purpose. For that love was extended to us, through Christ Jesus, before time began, (aiōnios g166)
ⲑ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲁⲛϩⲟⲛ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲧⲁϩⲙⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲧⲱϩⲙ̅ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲉⲛⲕⲁⲧⲁⲛⲉⲛϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲁⲛ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲉϥⲧⲱϣ ⲙ̅ⲙⲓⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲁⲁⲥ ⲛⲁⲛ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲁⲑⲏ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛ̅ϣⲁⲉⲛⲉϩ. (aiōnios g166)
10 and has now been made apparent through the appearing of our Saviour, Christ Jesus; who has made an end of death, and has brought life and immortality to light by that good news,
ⲓ̅ⲉⲁⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲥⲱⲧⲏⲣ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ⲉⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲥϥ̅ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲩ. ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲧⲧⲁⲕⲟ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ.
11 of which I was myself appointed a herald, apostle, and teacher.

12 That is why I am undergoing these sufferings; yet I feel no shame, for I know in whom I have put my faith, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲉⲓϣⲱⲡ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲉⲓϩⲓⲥⲉ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛ̅ϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲁⲛ. ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲧⲏⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉϩⲁⲣⲉϩ ⲉⲧⲁⲡⲁⲣⲁⲑⲏⲕⲏ ⲉⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ.
13 Keep before you, as an example of sound teaching, all that you learnt from me as you listened with that faith and love which come from union with Christ Jesus.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ϫⲓ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲥⲙⲟⲧ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲟϫ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲕⲥⲟⲧⲙⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅.
14 Guard by the help of the Holy Spirit, who is within us, the glorious trust that has been committed to you.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ϩⲁⲣⲉϩ ⲉⲡϭⲟⲓ̈ⲗⲉ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲏϩ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲛ̅
15 You know, of course, that all our friends in Roman Asia turned their backs on me, including Phygellus and Hermogenes.

16 May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorus; for he often cheered me and was not ashamed of my chains.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲣⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ϯ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ⲟⲛ̅ⲏⲥⲓⲫⲟⲣⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁϥϯⲙ̅ⲧⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲡ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡϥ̅ϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲙⲣ̅ⲣⲉ.
17 On the contrary, when he arrived in Rome, he sought eagerly for me until he found me.

18 The Lord grant that he may find mercy at the hands of the Lord on that day. The many services that he rendered at Ephesus you have the best means of knowing.
