1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

2 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all towards each other aboundeth;
ⲅ̅ϣ̅ϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ⲉϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ϫⲉ ϥⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁ. ϫⲉ ⲥⲣ̅ϩⲟⲩⲉⲁⲩⲝⲁⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲁϣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅.
4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God, for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:
ⲇ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲛ̅ϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅. ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ϩⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲩⲡⲟⲙⲟⲛⲏ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ. ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲇⲓⲱⲅⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲑⲗⲓⲯⲓⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲁⲛⲉⲭⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ
5 [Which is] a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
ⲉ̅ⲉⲩⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲣⲓⲥⲓⲥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲡ̅ϩⲓⲥⲉ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲥ.
6 Seeing [it is] a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
ⲋ̅ⲉϣϫⲉⲟⲩⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϩⲣⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲱⲱⲃⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲑⲗⲓⲯⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲑⲗⲓⲃⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅.
7 And to you who are troubled, rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,

8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
ⲏ̅ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϣⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲕⲱϩⲧ̅ ⲉϥⲛⲁϯ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲃⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅.
9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; (aiōnios )
ⲑ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲛⲁϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲁⲡ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⲛ̅ϣⲁⲉⲛⲉϩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥϭⲟⲙ. (aiōnios )
10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired by all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.
ⲓ̅ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲉϫⲓⲉⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲣ̅ϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲛϩⲉⲧⲧⲉϥⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ·
11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of [this] calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of [his] goodness, and the work of faith with power:
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲛϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲱϩⲙ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥ̅ϫⲉⲕⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩϥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡϩⲱⲃ ⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϭⲟⲙ.
12 That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God, and of the Lord Jesus Christ.
