Hebrews 2
1 Therefore we must give still more heed to what we were taught, for fear we should drift away.
ⲁ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ϣϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛϯϩⲧⲏⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲏⲡⲟⲧⲉ ⲛⲧⲛϩⲁⲧⲉ
2 For, if the Message which was delivered by angels had its authority confirmed, so that every offence against it, or neglect of it, met with a fitting requital,
ⲃ̅ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲟⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓ ⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲧⲁϫⲣⲏⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲛⲧⲁⲧⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁⲩϫⲓ ⲛⲟⲩⲃⲉⲕⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲡϣⲁ ⲙⲙⲟϥ
3 how can we, of all people, expect to escape, if we disregard so great a Salvation? It was the Master who at the outset spoke of this Salvation, and its authority was confirmed for us by those who heard him,
ⲅ̅ⲛⲁϣ ⲛϩⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲧⲛⲛⲁⲣⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲁⲛⲁⲙⲉⲗⲉⲓ ⲉⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⲛⲧⲉⲉⲓϭⲟⲧ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϫⲓ ⲛⲟⲩⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲁϥⲧⲁϫⲣⲟ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ
4 while God himself added his testimony to it by signs, and marvels, and many different miracles, as well as by imparting the Holy Spirit as he saw fit.
ⲇ̅ⲉⲣⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲣⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲙⲛ ϩⲉⲛϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲛ ϩⲉⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲃⲉ ⲙⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲡⲱⲣϫ ⲙⲡⲛⲁ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲱϣ
5 God has not given to angels the control of that Future World of which we are speaking!
ⲉ̅ⲛⲧⲁϥϩⲩⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲧⲟⲓⲕⲟⲩⲙⲉⲛⲏ ⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲧⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ
6 No; a writer has declared somewhere — ‘What is Man that thou shouldst remember him? Or a Son of Man that thou shouldst regard him?
ⲋ̅ⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲣⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲁ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲕⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲏ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲕϭⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲡⲉϥϣⲓⲛⲉ
7 Thou hast made him, for a while, lower than angels; With glory and honour thou hast crowned him; Thou hast set him over all that thy hands have made;
ⲍ̅ⲁⲕϭⲟϫⲃⲉϥ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ ⲡⲁⲣⲁ ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲁⲕⲥⲧⲉⲫⲁⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲛ ⲟⲩⲧⲁⲉⲓⲟ ⲁⲕⲕⲁⲑⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉϫⲛ ⲛⲉϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲛⲉⲕϭⲓϫ
8 Thou hast placed all things beneath his feet.’ This ‘placing of everything’ under man means that there was nothing which was not placed under him. As yet, however, we do not see everything placed under man.
ⲏ̅ⲁⲕⲑⲃⲃⲓⲉ ⲛⲕⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲁ ⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏ ⲧⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡⲧⲣⲉϥⲑⲃⲃⲓⲉ ⲛⲕⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲛⲁϥ ⲉⲓⲉ ⲙⲡϥⲕⲁ ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲛϥϩⲩⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲡⲁⲧⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲛⲕⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲁⲩϩⲩⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲛⲁϥ
9 What our eyes do see is Jesus, who was made for a while lower than angels, now, because of his sufferings and death, crowned with glory and honour; so that his tasting the bitterness of death should, in God’s loving-kindness, be on behalf of all mankind.
ⲑ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϭⲟϫⲃⲉϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ ⲡⲁⲣⲁ ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲧⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲓⲏⲥ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡϩⲓⲥⲉ ⲙⲡⲙⲟⲩ ⲉϥⲥⲧⲉⲫⲁⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲛ ⲟⲩⲧⲁⲉⲓⲟ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉϥⲉϫⲓϯⲡⲉ ⲙⲡⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁ ⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ
10 It was, indeed, fitting that God, for whom and through whom all things exist, should, when leading many sons to glory, make the author of their Salvation perfect through suffering.
ⲓ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲡⲣⲉⲡⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁϥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉ ⲛⲕⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁ ⲛⲕⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓ ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ ϩⲁϩ ⲛϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲁϥⲛⲧⲟⲩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲭⲏⲅⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ϩⲉⲛϩⲓⲥⲉ
11 For he who purifies, and those whom he purifies, all spring from One; and therefore he is not ashamed to call them ‘Brothers.’
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲧⲃⲃⲟ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲩⲧⲃⲃⲟ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲉⲛⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛϥϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ
12 He says — ‘I will tell of thy Name to my Brothers, In the midst of the congregation I will sing thy praise.’
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲁϫⲱ ⲙⲡⲉⲕⲣⲁⲛ ϩⲛ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲛⲧⲙⲏⲧⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ϯⲛⲁⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ
13 And again — ‘As for me, I will put my trust in God.’ And yet again — ‘See, here am I and the children whom God gave me.’
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲓⲛⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥ ϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲙⲛ ⲛϣⲏⲣⲉ ϣⲏⲙ ⲉⲛⲧⲁ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ
14 Therefore, since human nature is the common heritage of ‘the Children,’ Jesus also shared it, in order that by death he might render powerless him whose power lies in death — that is, the Devil —
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲉⲡⲉⲓⲇⲏ ⲁⲛϣⲏⲣⲉ ϭⲉ ϣⲏⲙ ⲕⲟⲓⲛⲱⲛⲓ ⲉⲥⲛⲟϥ ϩⲓ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲛⲧⲟϥ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲉⲓϩⲉ ⲁϥⲙⲉⲧⲉⲭⲉ ⲉⲛⲁⲓ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲉϥⲙⲟⲩ ⲉϥⲉⲟⲩⲱⲥϥ ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲉⲟⲩⲛⲧϥ ⲡⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲙⲡⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲇⲓⲁⲃⲟⲗⲟⲥ
15 and so might deliver all those who, from fear of death, had all their lives been living in slavery.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥⲡⲗϭ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲛ ⲑⲟⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲙⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲉⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲙⲡⲉⲩⲁϩⲉ ⲉⲩⲟ ⲛⲉⲛⲟⲭⲟⲥ ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧϩⲙϩⲁⲗ
16 It was not, surely, to the help of the angels that Jesus came, but ‘to the help of the descendants of Abraham.’
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲛⲛⲉϥⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϥⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲉⲥⲡⲉⲣⲙⲁ ⲛⲁⲃⲣⲁϩⲁⲙ
17 And consequently it was necessary that he should in all points be made like ‘his Brothers,’ in order that he might prove a merciful as well as a faithful High Priest in man’s relations with God, for the purpose of expiating the sins of his People.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲛⲉϣϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲥⲛⲏⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲛⲁⲏⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲣⲙ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲕⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲛⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲙⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ
18 The fact that he himself suffered under temptation enables him to help those who are tempted.
