Coptic New Testament
1Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, the hometown of Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.
1Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲛ ϧⲁϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲁⲥⲭ ⲁ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲑⲁⲛⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ.
2So they hosted a dinner for Jesus there. Martha served, and Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with Him.
2ⲁⲩⲉⲣ ⲟⲩⲇⲓⲡⲛⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ⲛⲁⲥϣⲉⲙϣⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲑⲣⲟⲧⲉⲃ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ.
3Then Mary took about a pint of expensive perfume, made of pure nard, and she anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped them with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
3ⲙⲁⲣⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲥϭⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲗⲓⲧⲣⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲟϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲁⲣⲇⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲕⲏ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲥⲟⲩⲉⲛϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲥⲑⲱϩⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲛϭⲁⲗⲁⲩϫ ⳿ⲛⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲥϥⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϥⲱⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲥ⳿ⲁⲫⲉ ⲁ ⲡⲓ ⲏⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲥⲑⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲟϫⲉⲛ.
4But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was going to betray Him, asked,
4ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏ ⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲥⲕⲁⲣⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ ⲫⲏ ⲉⲛⲁϥⲛⲁⲧⲏⲓϥ.
5“Why wasn’t this perfume sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?”

6Judas did not say this because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money bag, he used to take from what was put into it.
6ⲫⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϫⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲭ ⳿ⲟⲧⲓ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲗⲓⲛ ⲛⲁϥ ϧⲁ ⲛⲓϩⲏⲕⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲉϥϭ ⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲅⲗⲱⲥⲟⲕⲟⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲛⲏ ⳿ⲉϣⲁϥϩⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲉϣⲁϥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ.
7“Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “She has kept this perfume in preparation for the day of My burial.

8The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me.”

9Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews learned that Jesus was there. And they came not only because of Him, but also to see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.
9ⲁⲩ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲉϥⲟϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⳿ϥⲭⲏ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⳿ⲡⲕⲉⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ.
10So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well,

11for on account of him many of the Jews were deserting them and believing in Jesus.

12The next day the great crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

13They took palm branches and went out to meet Him, shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the King of Israel!”
13ⲁⲩϭⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲃⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲃⲉⲛⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲱⲥⲁⲛⲛⲁ ⳿ϥ⳿ⲥⲙⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲏⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲣⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲠ⳪ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲡⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲒⲥ̅ⲗ̅.
14Finding a young donkey, Jesus sat on it, as it is written:
14Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲓⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲱ ⲁϥ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲟⲩⲧ.
15“Do not be afraid, O Daughter of Zion. See, your King is coming, seated on the colt of a donkey.”
15ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣⲉⲣϩⲟϯ ⳿ⲧϣⲉⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲓⲱⲛ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲡⲉⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⳿ϥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲉϥⲧⲁⲗⲏⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲥⲏ ϫ ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲉⲱ.
16At first His disciples did not understand these things, but after Jesus was glorified they remembered what had been done to Him, and they realized that these very things had also been written about Him.
16ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲁϥϭⲓⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲣ⳿ⲫⲙⲉⲩ⳿ⲓ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲁⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ.
17Meanwhile, many people continued to testify that they had been with Jesus when He called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead.
17ⲛⲁϥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϥⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲙϩⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ.
18That is also why the crowd went out to meet Him, because they heard that He had performed this sign.
18ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲩⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲣ ⲡⲁⲓⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ.
19Then the Pharisees said to one another, “You can see that this is doing you no good. Look how the whole world has gone after Him!”
19ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϫⲉⲙϩⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲓⲥ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲁϥϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲥⲁⲙⲉⲛϩⲏϥ.
20Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast.

21They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and requested of him, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”
21ⲛⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲛⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁ ⲫⲓⲗⲓⲡⲡⲟⲥ ⲡⲓⲣⲉⲙⲃⲏ ⲑⲥⲁⲓⲇⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲉ⳿ⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩϯϩⲟ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛ⳪ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅.
22Philip relayed this appeal to Andrew, and both of them went and told Jesus.

23But Jesus replied, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

29The crowd standing there heard it and said that it had thundered. Others said that an angel had spoken to Him.

33He said this to indicate the kind of death He was going to die.

34The crowd replied, “We have heard from the Law that the Christ will remain forever. So how can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?”

35Then Jesus told them, “For a little while longer, the Light will be among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.

36While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of light.” After Jesus had spoken these things, He went away and was hidden from them.

37Although Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still did not believe in Him.

38This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
38ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϫⲱⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲏⲥⲁ⳿ⲓⲁⲥ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟϥ ϫⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲃϣ ⳿ⲙⲠ⳪ ⲉⲧⲁϥϭⲱⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙ.
39For this reason they were unable to believe. For again, Isaiah says:

40“He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, so that they cannot see with their eyes, and understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.”

41Isaiah said these things because he saw Jesus’ glory and spoke about Him.

42Nevertheless, many of the leaders believed in Him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, for fear that they would be put out of the synagogue.

46I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in Me should remain in darkness.

47As for anyone who hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world.

48There is a judge for the one who rejects Me and does not receive My words: The word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

49I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it.

50And I know that His command leads to eternal life. So I speak exactly what the Father has told Me to say.”
