< Mark 1 >

1 A beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, Son of God.
ⲁ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲕⲟⲥ ⲧⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅
2 As it hath been written in the prophets, 'Lo, I send My messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee,' —
ⲃ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲉⲧⲥⲏϩ ϩⲛ̅ⲏⲥⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲥ ⲡⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ϯⲛⲁϫⲉⲩⲡⲁⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ϩⲓϩⲏ ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ⲛϥ̅ⲥⲃ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲕϩⲓⲏ.
3 'A voice of one calling in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight make ye his paths,' —
ⲅ̅ⲡⲉϩⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲱϣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲏⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲟⲩⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲩⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲟⲓ̈ⲧ.
4 John came baptizing in the wilderness, and proclaiming a baptism of reformation — to remission of sins,
ⲇ̅ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲉϥϯⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲙⲡϫⲁⲓ̈ⲉ ⲉϥⲕⲏⲣⲩⲥⲥⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉⲧⲁⲛⲟⲓⲁ ⲉⲡⲕⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ.
5 and there were going forth to him all the region of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and they were all baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲥⲃⲱⲕ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲧⲉⲭⲱⲣⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ϯⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲁ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲁⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲥⲟⲗⲩⲙⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲁⲩϫⲓⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲣⲇⲁⲛⲏⲥ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲟ ⲉⲩⲉⲝⲟⲙⲟⲗⲟⲅⲓ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲟⲃⲉ.
6 And John was clothed with camel's hair, and a girdle of skin around his loins, and eating locusts and honey of the field,
ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲛⲉⲣⲉϩⲉⲛϥⲱ ⲛ̅ϭⲁⲙⲟⲩⲗ ⲧⲟ ϩⲓⲱⲱϥ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲙⲟϫ ⲛ̅ϣⲁⲁⲣ ⲙⲏⲣ ⲉⲧⲉϥϯⲡⲉ. ⲉϥⲟⲩⲉⲙϣϫⲉ ϩⲓⲉⲃⲓⲱ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ.
7 and he proclaimed, saying, 'He doth come — who is mightier than I — after me, of whom I am not worthy — having stooped down — to loose the latchet of his sandals;
ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲓ̈ϣ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲧϫⲟⲟⲣ ⲉⲣⲟⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲁⲛⲅ̅ⲟⲩϩⲓⲕⲁⲛⲟⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲡⲁϩⲧ ⲉⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲩⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲧⲟⲟⲩⲉ.
8 I indeed did baptize you with water, but he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit.'
ⲏ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲉ͡ⲓϯⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲛⲁⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ.
9 And it came to pass in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John at the Jordan;
ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲍⲁⲣⲉⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϫⲓⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲣⲇⲁⲛⲏⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ
10 and immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens dividing, and the Spirit as a dove coming down upon him;
ⲓ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲙⲡⲏⲩⲉ ⲉⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⲉϫⲱϥ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϭⲣⲟⲟⲙⲡⲉ
11 and a voice came out of the heavens, 'Thou art My Son — the Beloved, in whom I did delight.'
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲥⲙⲏ ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲩⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲡⲁⲙⲉⲣⲓⲧ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡⲁⲟⲩⲱϣ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲕ̅
12 And immediately doth the Spirit put him forth to the wilderness,
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲁϥϫⲓⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲏⲙⲟⲥ
13 and he was there in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by the Adversary, and he was with the beasts, and the messengers were ministering to him.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲏⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲑⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲩⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓ ⲛⲁϥ.
14 And after the delivering up of John, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of the reign of God,
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲓⲇⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ ⲉϥⲕⲏⲣⲩⲥⲥⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
15 and saying — 'Fulfilled hath been the time, and the reign of God hath come nigh, reform ye, and believe in the good news.'
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ϫⲉ ⲁⲡⲉⲩⲟⲓ̈ϣ ϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲥϩⲱⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙⲉⲧⲁⲛⲟⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ.
16 And, walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a drag into the sea, for they were fishers,
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲑⲁⲗⲁⲥⲥⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲛⲙ̅ⲁⲛⲇⲣⲉⲁⲥ ⲡⲥⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩϫϣⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲑⲁⲗⲁⲥⲥⲁ ⲛⲉϩⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱϩⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲉ.
17 and Jesus said to them, 'Come ye after me, and I shall make you to become fishers of men;'
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲁⲙⲏⲉⲓⲛ ⲟⲩⲉϩⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲉ͡ⲓ ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲛⲁⲣ̅ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱϩⲉ ⲛ̅ⲣⲉϥϭⲉⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ.
18 and immediately, having left their nets, they followed him.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲕⲁⲛⲉⲩϣⲛⲏⲩ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ
19 And having gone on thence a little, he saw James of Zebedee, and John his brother, and they were in the boat refitting the nets,
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲉⲑⲏ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲓ̈ⲁⲕⲱⲃⲟⲥ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲍⲉⲃⲉⲇⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩϩⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ ⲉⲩⲥⲟⲃⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩϣⲛⲏⲩ
20 and immediately he called them, and, having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, they went away after him.
ⲕ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲕⲁⲡⲉⲩⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ⲍⲉⲃⲉⲇⲁⲓⲟⲥ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉ͡ⲓ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϫⲁⲓ̈ⲃⲉⲕⲉ ⲁⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ
21 And they go on to Capernaum, and immediately, on the sabbaths, having gone into the synagogue, he was teaching,
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲕⲁⲫⲁⲣⲛⲁⲟⲩⲙ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲁϥϯⲥⲃⲱ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ
22 and they were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲥⲃⲱ ⲉϥϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲩϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ ϩⲱⲥⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧϥ̅ⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ
23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛ̅ⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲧⲟⲛ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϫⲓϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ
24 saying, 'Away! what — to us and to thee, Jesus the Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known thee who thou art — the Holy One of God.'
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁϩⲣⲟⲕ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲛ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲛⲁⲍⲱⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲕⲉⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲕⲟⲛ ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲕ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲕ̅ⲛⲓⲙ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, 'Be silenced, and come forth out of him,'
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲉⲡⲓⲧⲓⲙⲁ ⲛⲁϥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲧⲙ̅ⲣⲱⲕ ⲛⲅ̅ⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ
26 and the unclean spirit having torn him, and having cried with a great voice, came forth out of him,
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛ̅ⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲧⲟⲛ ⲣⲁϩⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲡⲕⲁϩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲱϣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ϩⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ
27 and they were all amazed, so as to reason among themselves, saying, 'What is this? what new teaching [is] this? that with authority also the unclean spirits he commandeth, and they obey him!'
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲓⲥⲟⲩⲥⲃⲱ ⲃ̅ⲃⲣ̅ⲣⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛ̅ⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲧⲟⲛ ϥⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ
28 And the fame of him went forth immediately to all the region, round about, of Galilee.
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲉⲓⲧ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲙⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲱⲧⲉ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ.
29 And immediately, having come forth out of the synagogue, they went to the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John,
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲏⲉ͡ⲓ ⲛ̅ⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲙⲛ̅ⲁⲛⲇⲣⲉⲁⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲓ̈ⲁⲕⲱⲃⲟⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ
30 and the mother-in-law of Simon was lying fevered, and immediately they tell him about her,
ⲗ̅ⲧϣⲱⲙⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏϫ ⲉⲥϩⲏⲙ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧⲥ̅.
31 and having come near, he raised her up, having laid hold of her hand, and the fever left her immediately, and she was ministering to them.
ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ⲁϥϯⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲉ͡ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲁϥⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥϭⲓϫ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲙ ⲁϥⲗⲟ ϩⲓⲱⲱⲥ ⲁⲥⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓ ⲛⲁⲩ.
32 And evening having come, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all who were ill, and who were demoniacs,
ⲗ̅ⲃ̅ⲣⲟⲩϩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲣⲏ ⲛⲁϩⲱⲧⲡ̅ ⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲕϩ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉⲛ̅ⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ
33 and the whole city was gathered together near the door,
ⲗ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ̅ ⲁⲥⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ϩⲓⲣⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲓ̈.
34 and he healed many who were ill of manifold diseases, and many demons he cast forth, and was not suffering the demons to speak, because they knew him.
ⲗ̅ⲇ̅ⲁϥⲑⲉⲣⲁⲡⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲕϩ ⲛ̅ϣⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲃⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲁϥⲛⲟϫⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲙⲁϥⲕⲁⲛ̅ⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ
35 And very early, it being yet night, having risen, he went forth, and went away to a desert place, and was there praying;
ⲗ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲩⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ϫⲁⲓ̈ⲉ ⲁϥϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ
36 and Simon and those with him went in quest of him,
ⲗ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲡⲱⲧʾ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ
37 and having found him, they say to him, — 'All do seek thee;'
ⲗ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲧⲁϩⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲕⲱⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲕ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ
38 and he saith to them, 'We may go to the next towns, that there also I may preach, for for this I came forth.'
ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲛ ⲉⲕⲉⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲕⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲟ ⲉⲧϩⲏⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲕⲏⲣⲩⲥⲥⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲉⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲡⲉⲓ̈ϩⲱⲃ.
39 And he was preaching in their synagogues, in all Galilee, and is casting out the demons,
ⲗ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϥⲕⲏⲣⲩⲥⲥⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲇⲁⲓⲙⲟⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲉϥⲛⲟⲩϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ
40 and there doth come to him a leper, calling on him, and kneeling to him, and saying to him — 'If thou mayest will, thou art able to cleanse me.'
ⲙ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉϥⲥⲟⲃϩ̅ ⲉϥⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲁⲗⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲕϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲕⲛⲁⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟⲉ͡ⲓ
41 And Jesus having been moved with compassion, having stretched forth the hand, touched him, and saith to him, 'I will; be thou cleansed;'
ⲙ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϣⲛ̅ϩⲧⲏϥ ⲁϥⲥⲟⲩⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲕⲱϩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟ.
42 and he having spoken, immediately the leprosy went away from him, and he was cleansed.
ⲙ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲡⲉϥⲥⲱⲃⲁϩ ⲗⲟ ϩⲓⲱⲱϥ ⲁϥⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟ.
43 And having sternly charged him, immediately he put him forth,
ⲙ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϩⲱⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ
44 and saith to him, 'See thou mayest say nothing to any one, but go away, thyself shew to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing the things Moses directed, for a testimony to them.'
ⲙ̅ⲇ̅ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϭⲱϣⲧ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲛⲅ̅ⲧⲥⲁⲃⲟⲕ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲏⲏⲃ ⲛⲅ̅ϫⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲉⲕⲧⲃⲃⲟ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲙⲱⲩ̈ⲥⲏⲥ ⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ.
45 And he, having gone forth, began to proclaim much, and to spread abroad the thing, so that no more he was able openly to enter into the city, but he was without in desert places, and they were coming unto him from every quarter.
