Coptic New Testament
1Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves those born of Him.
1ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲙⲓⲥⲓ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲙⲉⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲙⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ϥⲙⲉⲓ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲙⲁⲥϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ.
2By this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep His commandments.
2ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲁⲅⲁⲡⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛⲙⲉⲛⲣⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ.
3For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome,
3ⲑⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉ ϯⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉϥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉϥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲥⲉϩⲟⲣϣ ⲁⲛ.
4because everyone born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.
4ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲙⲁⲥϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ϣⲁϥϭⲣⲟ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓϭⲣⲟ ⲉⲧⲁϥϭⲣⲟ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⲡⲉ.
5Who then overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
5ⲛⲓⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧϭⲣⲏⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ.
6This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ—not by water alone, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies to this, because the Spirit is the truth.
6ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲡⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ.
7For there are three that testify:
7ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲏⲓ ⲅ̅ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ.
8the Spirit, the water, and the blood—and these three are in agreement.
8ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲅ̅ ⲥⲉϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ.
9Even if we accept human testimony, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony that God has given about His Son.
9ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛϭⲓ ⳿ⲛϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ϫⲉ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϧⲁ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲓ.
10Whoever believes in the Son of God has this testimony within him; whoever does not believe God has made Him out to be a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given about His Son.
10ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲥϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲛ⳿ϥⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⲁⲛ ⲁϥⲁⲓϥ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁⲙⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⲑⲏ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫϯ ϧⲁ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲓ.
11And this is that testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
11ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛⲉⲛⲉϩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲁⲓⲱⲛϧ ⲁϥϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲓ.
12Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

13I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.
13ⲛⲁⲓ ⲁⲓ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲣⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
14And this is the confidence that we have before Him: If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

15And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we already possess what we have asked of Him.

16If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he should ask God, who will give life to those who commit this kind of sin. There is a sin that leads to death; I am not saying he should ask regarding that sin.

17All unrighteousness is sin, yet there is sin that does not lead to death.

18We know that anyone born of God does not keep on sinning; the One who was born of God protects him, and the evil one cannot touch him.

19We know that we are of God, and that the whole world is under the power of the evil one.

20And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true—in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
