< Romans 1 >

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God,
ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲡϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲧⲁϩⲙ̅ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲡⲟⲣϫϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
2 which he promised beforehand by his prophets in the holy scriptures,

3 concerning his Son who was a descendant of David according to the flesh.

4 Through the Spirit of holiness he was declared with power to be the Son of God by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord.
ⲇ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲟϣϥ̅ ⲛ̅ϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ.
5 Through him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations, for the sake of his name.

6 Among these nations, you also have been called to belong to Jesus Christ.

7 This letter is to all who are in Rome, the beloved of God, who are called to be holy people. May grace be to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
ⲍ̅ⲛⲉⲧϩⲛ̅ϩⲣⲱⲙⲏ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉⲣⲓⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲧⲁϩⲙ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ϯⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅·
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.

9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, of how continually I make mention of you.
ⲑ̅ⲡⲁⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϯϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲁϫⲛ̅ⲱϫⲛ̅ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ
10 I always request in my prayers that by any means I may at last be successful now by the will of God in coming to you.
ⲓ̅ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲉⲓ̈ⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲁϩⲓⲏ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅.
11 For I desire to see you, that I may give you some spiritual gift, in order to strengthen you.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ϯⲟⲩⲉϣⲛⲁⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉϯ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲧⲁϫⲣⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅.
12 That is, I long to be mutually encouraged among you, through each other's faith, yours and mine.

13 Now I do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, that I often intended to come to you, (but I was hindered until now), in order to have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the rest of the Gentiles.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓ̈ⲕⲁⲁⲥ ϩⲁⲉⲓⲁⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲡ ⲉⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲕⲱⲗⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ϣⲁⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉϫⲡⲟ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲉϣⲱϫⲡ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ.
14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲗⲗⲏⲛ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲃⲁⲣⲃⲁⲣⲟⲥ. ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲫⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲑⲏⲧ ⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈.
15 So, as for me, I am ready to proclaim the gospel also to you who are in Rome.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲣⲟⲧ ⲉⲧⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲍⲉ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲉⲧϩⲛ̅ϩⲣⲱⲙⲏ·
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and for the Greek.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲛ̅ϯϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ. ⲟⲩϭⲟⲙ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲛⲓⲛ.
17 For in it God's righteousness is revealed from faith to faith, as it has been written, “The righteous will live by faith.”
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁϭⲱⲗⲡ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲉⲩⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉⲧⲥⲏϩ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people, who through unrighteousness hold back the truth.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲧⲟⲣⲅⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁϭⲱⲗⲡ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲉ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧϣⲁϥⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡϫⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲟⲛⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϫⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲟⲛⲥ̅
19 This is because that which is known about God is visible to them. For God has enlightened them.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϫⲉ ⲡⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ. ⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
20 For his invisible qualities, namely his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. (aïdios g126)
ⲕ̅ⲛⲉϥⲡⲉⲑⲏⲡ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲑⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲱⲛⲧ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ. ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲧⲁⲙⲓⲟ ⲉⲩⲛⲟⲓ̈ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉϥϭⲟⲙ ⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ϣⲁⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲉϫⲱ. (aïdios g126)
21 This is because, although they knew about God, they did not glorify him as God, nor did they give him thanks. Instead, they became foolish in their thoughts, and their senseless hearts were darkened.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩϯⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϩⲱⲥ ⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲩⲣⲡⲉⲧϣⲟⲩⲉⲓⲧ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲡⲉⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲛ̅ⲁⲧⲥⲃⲱ ⲣ̅ⲕⲁⲕⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ.
22 They claimed to be wise, but they became foolish.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛϩⲉⲛⲥⲁⲃⲉ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ⲥⲟϭ.
23 They exchanged the glory of the imperishable God for the likenesses of an image of perishable man, of birds, of four-footed beasts, and of creeping things.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩϣⲓⲃⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲁⲧⲧⲁⲕⲟ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲓⲕⲱⲛ ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉϣⲁϥⲧⲁⲕⲟ ϩⲓϩⲁⲗⲏⲧ ϩⲓⲧⲃ̅ⲛⲏ. ϩⲓϫⲁⲧϥⲉ·
24 Therefore God gave them over to the lusts of their hearts for uncleanness, for their bodies to be dishonored among themselves.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲁⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲩⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲥⲱϣ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲥⲱⲙⲁ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ.
25 It is they who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and who worshiped and served the creation instead of the Creator, who is praised forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϣⲓⲃⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϭⲟⲗ. ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲧ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲱⲛⲧ̅ ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲥⲱⲛⲧ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲥⲙⲁⲙⲁⲁⲧ ϣⲁⲛⲓⲉⲛⲉϩ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ· (aiōn g165)
26 Because of this, God gave them over to dishonorable passions, for their women exchanged natural relations for those that were unnatural.
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲁⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϩⲉⲛⲡⲁⲑⲟⲥ ⲉⲩⲥⲏϣ. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲣ ⲛⲉⲩϩⲓⲟⲙⲉ ⲁⲩϣⲓⲃⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲱⲃ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲫⲩⲥⲓⲥ ⲉⲩⲡⲁⲣⲁⲧⲉⲩⲫⲩⲥⲓⲥ.
27 Likewise, the men also left their natural relations with women and burned in their lust for one another. These were men who committed shameless acts with men and received in themselves the penalty they deserved for their error.
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ϩⲟⲙⲟⲓⲱⲥ ⲛⲉⲩⲕⲉϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲩⲕⲱ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲱⲃ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲫⲩⲥⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩϩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲙⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ. ϩⲉⲛϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲉⲩⲣ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲧⲁⲥⲭⲩⲙⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧϣⲃ̅ⲉⲓⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲃⲉⲕⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲡⲗⲁⲛⲏ ⲉⲧⲉϣϣⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ.
28 Because they did not approve of having God in their awareness, he gave them up to a depraved mind, for them to do those things that are not proper.

29 They have been filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, and malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and evil intentions. They are gossips,

30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventing ways of doing evil; they are disobedient to parents.

31 They are senseless, faithless, heartless, and unmerciful.
ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲑⲏⲧ. ⲛ̅ⲁⲧⲛⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁϩⲓⲏⲧ ⲛ̅ⲁⲧⲛⲁ
32 They understand the regulations of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death. But not only do they do these things, they also approve of others who do them.
