2 Corinthians 13
1 This is the third time that I am coming to you. “Every accusation must be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses.”
ⲁ̅ⲡⲙⲉϩϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ϯⲛⲏⲩ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲧⲧⲁⲡⲣⲟ ⲙⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲏ ϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲉⲣⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ
2 I have already said to those who sinned before and to all the rest when I was there the second time, and I say it again: When I come again, I will not spare them.
ⲃ̅ⲁⲓϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲓⲛ ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ϯϣⲣⲡ ϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲉⲓϩⲁⲧⲉ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲙⲡⲙⲉϩⲥⲉⲡ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲛϯϩⲁⲧⲛ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲉⲓⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲣⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϫⲓⲛ ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲕⲉⲥⲉⲉⲡⲉ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲛⲕⲉⲥⲟⲡ ⲛϯⲛⲁϯⲥⲟ ⲁⲛ
3 I tell you this because you are looking for evidence that Christ is speaking through me. He is not weak toward you. Instead, he is powerful in you.
ⲅ̅ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲧⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲏ ⲙⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲛϥⲟ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲁⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϥϭⲙϭⲟⲙ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ
4 For he was crucified in weakness, but he is alive by God's power. For we also are weak in him, but we will live with him by the power of God among you.
ⲇ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲧⲁⲩⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲥⲑⲉⲛⲓⲁ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϥⲟⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϩⲱⲱⲛ ⲧⲛϭⲟⲟⲃ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲧⲛⲛⲁⲱⲛϩ ⲛⲙⲙⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ
5 Examine yourselves to see if you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize this about yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless you have failed the test.
ⲉ̅ϫⲛⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛϩⲛ ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲁⲍⲉ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲏ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲉⲓⲙⲏⲧⲓ ϫⲉ ⲙⲉϣⲁⲕ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ϩⲉⲛϫⲟⲟⲩⲧ
6 And I trust that you will recognize that we have not failed the test.
ⲋ̅ϯⲛⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲉⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲁⲛϩⲉⲛϫⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲛ
7 Now we pray to God that you may not do any wrong. I do not pray that we may appear to have passed the test. Instead, I pray that you may do what is right, although we may seem to have failed the test.
ⲍ̅ϯϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲙⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛⲣ ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲙⲡⲉⲑⲟⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲥⲱⲧⲡ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲛⲧⲱⲧⲛ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲣⲡ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲛϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲱⲥ ⲥⲱⲧⲡ ⲁⲛ
8 For we are not able to do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.
ⲏ̅ⲙⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲉϯ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲧⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϫⲛ ⲧⲙⲉ
9 For we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. We also pray that you may be made complete.

10 I write these things while I am away from you, so that when I am with you I do not have to deal harshly with you in the use of my authority—which the Lord gave to me, so that I may build you up, and not tear you down.

11 Finally, brothers, rejoice! Work for restoration, be encouraged, agree with one another, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

12 Greet each other with a holy kiss.

14 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.
