< Hebrews 5 >

1 For every high priest, chosen from among people, is appointed to act on the behalf of people in the things concerning God, so that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.
ⲁ̅ⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲟⲩϫⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉϣⲁⲩⲕⲁⲑⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϩⲣⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲧⲁⲗⲉⲇⲱⲣⲟⲛ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲓⲑⲩⲥⲓⲁ ϩⲁⲛⲟⲃⲉ.
2 He can deal gently with those who are ignorant and who have been deceived, because he himself is subject to weakness.
ⲃ̅ⲉⲩⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉϣⲡ̅ϩⲓⲥⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟ ⲛ̅ⲁⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲡⲗⲁⲛⲁ. ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲱⲱϥ ϫⲉ ϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲛ̅ⲧϭⲱⲃ.
3 Because of this, he also is required to offer sacrifices for his own sins, just as he does for the people's sins.
ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧⲥ̅ ϣ̅ϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉϣⲁϥⲧⲁⲗⲟ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲁⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ. ⲛϥ̅ⲧⲁⲗⲟ ϩⲱⲱϥ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓϩⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲉϥⲛⲟⲃⲉ·
4 It is not for himself that anyone takes this honor. Instead, he is called by God, just as Aaron was.
ⲇ̅ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲓ ⲛⲁϥ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲧⲁⲉⲓⲟ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ⲁⲁⲣⲱⲛ.
5 In the same way, neither did Christ honor himself by making himself high priest. Instead, the one speaking to him said, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father.”
ⲉ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅. ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥϯⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲁⲁϥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ ⲡⲉ. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲓ̈ϫⲡⲟⲕ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲟⲩ.
6 It is just as he also says in another place, “You are a priest forever after the manner of Melchizedek.” (aiōn g165)
ⲋ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉϣⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲙⲁ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲏⲏⲃ ϣⲁⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲧⲧⲁⲝⲓⲥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉⲗⲭⲓⲥⲉⲇⲉⲕ. (aiōn g165)
7 During the days of his flesh, Christ offered up both prayers and requests with loud cries and tears to God, the one able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his godly life.
ⲍ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲥⲁⲣⲝ̅ ⲁϥϫⲓⲥⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲱⲣϣ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϩⲣⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲟⲩⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲟⲩϫⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲩ. ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲁϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲣⲙ̅ⲉⲓⲏ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛⲧ(ϩ)ⲟⲧⲉ.
8 Even though he was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered.
ⲏ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲡⲉⲣ ⲉⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲁϥⲥⲃⲱ ⲉⲡⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁϥϣⲟⲡⲟⲩ.
9 He was made perfect and became, for everyone who obeys him, the cause of eternal salvation. (aiōnios g166)
ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲁϥϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ ⲛ̅ⲁⲓⲧⲓⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϣⲁⲉⲛⲉϩ. (aiōnios g166)
10 He was designated by God as high priest after the manner of Melchizedek.
ⲓ̅ⲉⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲧⲧⲁⲝⲓⲥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉⲗⲭⲓⲥⲉⲇⲉⲕ.
11 We have much to say about Jesus, but it is hard to explain since you have become dull in hearing.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲟϣ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲕϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗϥ̅. ⲉⲧⲃⲉϫⲉⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲟⲟⲛⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲙⲁⲁϫⲉ.
12 For though by this time you should be teachers, you still have need for someone to teach you the basic principles of God's messages. You need milk, not solid food!
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲉϣϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲣ̅ⲥⲁϩ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲉⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ. ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲭⲣⲓⲁ ⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅. ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲉⲥⲧⲟⲓⲭⲓⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲭⲣⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲣⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲥϫⲟⲟⲣ.
13 For anyone who only takes milk is inexperienced with the message of righteousness, because he is still a little child.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧϫⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉ. ⲟⲩⲁⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ. ⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ.
14 But solid food is for adults. These are those who because of their maturity have their understanding trained for distinguishing good from evil.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲧⲁⲛⲓⲧⲉⲗⲓⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲉϩⲣⲉ ⲉⲧϫⲟⲟⲣ. ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲑⲉⲝⲓⲥ ⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲁⲓⲥⲑⲏⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲉⲩⲅⲩⲙⲛⲁⲍⲉ ⲉⲇⲓⲁⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲏⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲡⲉⲑⲟⲟⲩ·
