< Matthew 26 >

1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had concluded all these discourses, that he said to his disciples:
ⲁ̅ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲱ ⲛⲛⲉⲓϣⲁϫⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
2 Ye know that after two days is the Passover; and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
ⲃ̅ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲁϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ. ⲛⲥⲉⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲓⲇⲟⲩ ⲙⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲥxⲟ̅ⲩ̅ ⲙⲙⲟϥ.
3 Then assembled the chief priests and the Scribes and the Elders of the people, at the hall of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas.
ⲅ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛϭⲓⲛⲉⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲙⲛⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲙⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲗⲏ ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲡⲉϣⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲕⲁⲓⲫⲁⲥ.
4 And they held a counsel against Jesus, that they might take him by guile, and kill him.
ⲇ̅ⲁⲩϫⲓϣⲟϫⲛⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲛⲟⲩⲕⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲥⲉⲙⲟⲩⲟⲩⲧ ⲙⲙⲟϥ.
5 But they said: Not on the festival, lest there be a commotion among the people.
ⲉ̅ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲙⲡϣⲁ ⲁⲛ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲛⲛⲉⲟⲩϣⲧⲟⲣⲧⲣ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲙⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ.
6 And when Jesus was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
ⲋ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉⲃⲏⲑⲁⲛⲓⲁ ϩⲙⲡⲏⲓ ⲛⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲥⲟⲃϩ.
7 there came to him a woman having a vase of aromatic ointment very precious, and she poured it on the head of Jesus as he was reclining.
ⲍ̅ⲁⲥϯⲡⲉⲥⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓⲟⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩϩⲛⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲥⲟϭⲛ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲧⲥ ⲉⲛⲁϣⲉⲥⲟⲩⲛⲧϥ. ⲁⲥⲡⲱϩⲧ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉϫⲛⲧⲉϥⲁⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲛⲏϫ.
8 And when his disciples saw it they were displeased, and said: Why is this waste?
ⲏ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛϭⲓⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩⲁⲅⲁⲛⲁⲕⲧⲉⲓ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲕⲉⲡⲁⲓ.
9 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and have been given to the poor.

10 But Jesus knew their dissatisfaction, and said to them: Why trouble ye the woman? She hath performed a good deed towards me.

11 For the poor ye have at all times with you; but I am not with you always

12 And this her act, pouring the ointment on my body, she hath done as it were for my burial.

13 Verily I say to you, That wherever this my gospel shall be proclaimed, in all the world, this thing that she hath done shall be told for a memorial of her.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲙⲡⲉⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ ϩⲙⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϫⲱ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲧⲁⲓ ⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲩⲣⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛⲁⲥ.
14 Then one of the twelve, named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests,
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲛϭⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲡⲙⲛⲧⲥⲛⲟⲟⲩⲥ ⲡⲉⲧⲉϣⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲥ ⲡⲓⲥⲕⲁⲣⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ ϣⲁⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ.
15 and said to them: What will ye give me, if I will deliver him to you? And they promised him thirty pieces of silver.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲟⲩⲉϣⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯⲛⲁⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲓⲇⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ. ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲙⲛⲧⲥ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ⲉⲙⲁⲁⲃ ⲛϩⲁⲧ.
16 And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

17 And on the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, and said to him: Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the Passover?
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϩⲙⲡϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲇⲉ ⲛϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ. ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲛϭⲓⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲕⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛⲥⲃⲧⲉⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲧⲱⲛ ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲙϥ.
18 And he said to them: Go ye into the city, to such a man, and say to him: Our Rabbi saith, My time approaches: with thee will I keep the Passover with my disciples
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲣⲛⲛⲓⲙ ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲥⲁϩ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲡⲁⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ϩⲱⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲓⲛⲁⲣⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ ϩⲁⲧⲏⲕ ⲙⲛⲛⲁⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
19 And his disciples did as Jesus directed them, and made ready the Passover.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲛϭⲓⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲛⲧⲁϥϩⲱⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲩⲥⲟϥⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ.
20 And when it was evening, he reclined with his twelve disciples.
ⲕ̅ⲣⲟⲩϩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲛⲏϫ ⲙⲛⲡⲙⲛⲧⲥⲛⲟⲟⲩⲥ ⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
21 And as they were eating, he said: Verily I say to you, That one of you will betray me.

22 And it troubled them much. And they began each one of them to say to him; My Lord is it I?
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲁⲣⲭⲉⲓ ⲛϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲙⲏⲧⲉⲓ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ.
23 And he answered and said: One that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, he will betray me.

24 And the Son of man goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man, by whom the Son of man is betrayed. It would have been better for that man, if he had not been born.

25 Judas the betrayer answered and said: Rabbi, is it I? Jesus said to him: Thou hast said.

26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake; and gave to his disciples, and said: Take, eat; this is my body.

27 And he took the cup, and offered thanks and gave it to them, saying: Take, drink of this all of you.

28 This is my blood of the new testament, which, in behalf of many, is shed for the remission of sins.

29 But I say to you, that I will henceforth not drink of this product of the vine, until the day in which I shall drink it with you new in the kingdom of God.

30 And they sang praises, and went forth to the mount of Olives.

31 Then said Jesus to them: Ye will all be offended in me this night; for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of his flock will be dispersed.

33 Cephas replied, and said to him: Though all men should be offended in thee, I will never be offended in thee.

34 Jesus said to him: Verily I say to thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou wilt thrice deny me.

35 Cephas said to him: If I were to die with thee, I would not deny thee: and so also said all the disciples.

36 Then came Jesus with them to a place called Gethsemane: and he said to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray.

37 And he took Cephas and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be dejected and sorrowful.

38 And he said to them: There is anguish in my soul, even unto death. Wait for me here; and watch with me.

39 And retiring a little, he fell on his face, and prayed, and said: My Father, if it can be so, let this cup pass from me. Yet not as I choose, but as thou.

40 And he came to his disciples, and found them asleep: and he said to Cephas: So! could ye not watch with me one hour?

42 Again he went away the second time, and prayed, and said: My Father, if it cannot be that this cup pass, except I drink it, thy will be done.

43 And he came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

44 And he left them, and went again and prayed the third time, and used the same language.

45 Then he came to his disciples, and said to them: Sleep on now, and take rest. Behold, the hour is come: and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

47 And while he was yet speaking, lo, Judas the betrayer, one of the twelve, arrived; and a great multitude with him, with swords and clubs, from the presence of the chief priests and elders of the people.

48 And Judas the betrayer had given them a sign, saying: He it is, whom I shall kiss: him seize ye.

50 And Jesus said to him: My friend, is it for this thou hast come? Then they came up, and laid their hands on Jesus, and took him.

51 And lo, one of them with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

52 Then Jesus said to him: Return the sword to its place; for all they that take swords, shall die by swords.

53 Supposest thou that I cannot ask of my Father, and he now assign me more than twelve legions of angels?

54 But how then would the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
ⲛ̅ⲇ̅ⲛⲁϣ ϭⲉ ⲛϩⲉ ⲉⲩⲛⲁϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϭⲓⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⲛⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ. ϫⲉ ϩⲁⲡⲥ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲓⲛⲁⲓ.
55 At that time Jesus said to the multitude: Have ye come out, as against a cut-throat, with swords and clubs, to take me? I daily sat with you, and taught in the temple, and ye did not apprehend me.
ⲛ̅ⲉ̅ϩⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲙⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉϭⲟⲡⲧ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲱϫ ⲙⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛⲥⲏϥⲉ ⲙⲛⲛⲉⲧⲛϭⲉⲣⲟⲟⲃ. ⲛⲉⲓϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲙⲙⲏⲛⲉ ⲡⲉ ϩⲙⲡⲣⲡⲉ ⲉⲓϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ.
56 And this occurred, that the writings of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then the disciples all forsook him and fled.

57 And they who apprehended Jesus carried him to Caiaphas the high priest, where the Scribes and Elders were assembled.

58 And Simon Cephas followed after him at a distance, unto the high priest's hall, and entered, and sat with the servants within, that he might see the issue.
ⲛ̅ⲏ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲏϩ ⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲉ ϣⲁⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲗⲏ ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ. ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲙⲛⲛϩⲩⲡⲏⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲑⲁⲏ.
59 And the chief priests and the Elders and the whole assembly sought for witnesses against Jesus, that they might put him to death;
ⲛ̅ⲑ̅ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲛⲡⲥⲩⲛϩⲉⲇⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲛⲛⲉⲩϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲁⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲙⲟⲩⲟⲩⲧ ⲙⲙⲟϥ.
60 and found them not. And many false witnesses came; and at last, two came forward,
ⲝ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡⲟⲩϩⲉ ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ. ⲁϩⲁϩ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫ ⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ. ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲛϭⲓⲥⲛⲁⲩ.
61 and said: This man said, I can destroy the temple of God, and in three days rebuild it.

62 And the high priest rose up and said to him: Respondest thou nothing? What do these testify against thee?

63 And Jesus was silent. And the high priest answered, and said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Messiah, the Son of God.
ⲝ̅ⲅ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲕⲱ ⲛⲣⲱϥ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛϭⲓⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ. ϫⲉ ϯⲧⲁⲣⲕⲟ ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲟⲛϩ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲕⲉϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
64 Jesus saith to him: Thou hast said. And I say to you, That hereafter ye will see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.
ⲝ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲕϫⲟⲟⲥ. ⲡⲗⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲓⲛⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲟⲩⲛⲁⲙ ⲛⲧϭⲟⲙ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲓϫⲛⲛⲉⲕⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ ⲛⲧⲡⲉ.
65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and said: Behold, he hath blasphemed! Why therefore should we seek for witnesses? Behold, ye have now heard his blasphemy.
ⲝ̅ⲉ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲁϥⲡⲱϩ ⲛⲛⲉϥϩⲟⲓⲧⲉ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁϥϫⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲛⲧⲛⲣⲭⲣⲓⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ϫⲓⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ. ⲉⲓⲥϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲁ.
66 What is your pleasure? They answered and said: He is liable to death.

67 Then they spit in his face, and buffeted him, and others smote him,

68 and said to him: Prophesy to us, thou Messiah, who is it smote thee?
ⲝ̅ⲏ̅ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲣⲁϩⲧⲕ.
69 And Cephas was sitting without in the hall, and a certain maid approached him, and said to him: Thou also wast with Jesus the Nazarean.
ⲝ̅ⲑ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ϩⲓⲡⲥⲁ ⲙⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛⲧⲁⲩⲗⲏ. ⲁⲥϯⲡⲉⲥⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓⲟⲩϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲉⲥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ϩⲱⲱⲕ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲉⲕⲙⲛⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲟⲥ.
70 But he denied it before them all, and said: I know not what thou sayest.

71 And as he went out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said to them: This man was also there with Jesus the Nazarean.
ⲟ̅ⲁ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲑⲁⲉⲓⲧ ⲁⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓⲕⲉⲟⲩⲉⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲥ ⲛⲛⲉⲧϩⲙⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲙⲛⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲛⲁⲍⲱⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ.
72 And again he denied, with oaths: I know not that man.
ⲟ̅ⲃ̅ⲡⲁⲗⲓⲛ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲛⲁ ⲉϥⲣⲁⲛⲁϣ ϫⲉ ⲛϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ.
73 And a little after, those standing there came up and said to Cephas: Certainly, thou too art one of them; and thy speech maketh thee manifest.
ⲟ̅ⲅ̅ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲁⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲛϭⲓⲛⲉⲧⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲙⲉ ⲛⲧⲕⲟⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲱⲱⲕ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ. ⲕⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉⲕⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
74 Then he began to imprecate and to swear, I know not that man. And in that hour the cock crew.
ⲟ̅ⲇ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲉⲓ ⲛⲱⲣⲕ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲕⲁⲉⲩⲱ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲛϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲡⲁⲗⲉⲕⲧⲱⲣ ⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
75 And Cephas remembered the declaration of Jesus, who said to him: Before the cock croweth, thou wilt three times deny me. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
ⲟ̅ⲉ̅ⲁϥⲣⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛϭⲓⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲙⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲟⲟϥ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲡⲁⲧⲉⲟⲩⲁⲗⲉⲕⲧⲱⲣ ⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲕⲛⲁⲁⲡⲁⲣⲛⲁ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲛϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲛⲥⲟⲡ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥⲣⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ.
