Coptic New Testament
1In those days the crowd once again became very large, and they had nothing to eat. Jesus called the disciples to Him and said,
1ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲟⲛ ⲉϥϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲉϥⲟϣ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲟⲩⲟⲙϥ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ.
2“I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat.

3If I send them home hungry, they will faint along the way. For some of them have come a great distance.”
3ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲓϣⲁⲛⲭⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲁⲑⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲃⲱⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲓⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϩⲁⲛⲕⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲩϩⲓⲫⲟⲩⲉⲓ ⲡⲉ.
4His disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could anyone find enough bread to feed all these people?”
4ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲩ⳿ⲱ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗⲑⲱⲛ ϩⲁ⳿ⲙⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲥⲓ ⳿ⲛⲱⲓⲕ ϩⲓ ⳿ⲡϣⲁϥⲉ.
5“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied.
5ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥϣⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲍ̅.
6And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then He took the seven loaves, gave thanks and broke them, and gave them to His disciples to set before the people. And they distributed them to the crowd.
6ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϩⲟⲛϩⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲃ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϭⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ ⲍ̅ ⳿ⲛⲱⲓⲕ ⲁϥϣⲉⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲁϥⲫⲁϣⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩⲭⲱ ⲛⲁϩⲣⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲭⲱ ⲛⲁϩⲣⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ.
7They also had a few small fish, and Jesus blessed them and ordered that these be set before them as well.
7ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲕⲉⲕⲟⲩϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲃⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⲉⲑⲣⲟⲩⲭⲱ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓⲕⲉⲭⲱⲟⲩⲛⲓ ⲛⲁϩⲣⲁⲩ.
8The people ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
8ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲥⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲗⲁⲕϩ ⲍ̅ ⳿ⲙⲃⲓⲣ.
9And about four thousand men were present. As soon as Jesus had dismissed the crowd,
9ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲏ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲛⲁⲩ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲇ̅ ⳿ⲛϣⲟ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲭⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
10He got into the boat with His disciples and went to the district of Dalmanutha.
10ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲥⲁⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲁϥ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϫⲟⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲥⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲇⲁⲗⲙⲁⲛⲟⲩⲑⲁ.
11Then the Pharisees came and began to argue with Jesus, testing Him by demanding from Him a sign from heaven.
11ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲪⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲏⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛⲕⲱϯ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ⲉⲩⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲉⲩⲉⲣⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ.
12Jesus sighed deeply in His spirit and said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
12ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϥⲓ⳿ⲁϩⲟⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁϧⲟϥ ⲡⲁⲓϫⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ϥⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓϫⲱⲟⲩ.
13And He left them, got back into the boat, and crossed to the other side.
13ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲭⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲁϥϣⲉ ⳿ⲉⲙⲏⲣ.
14Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat.
14ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲉⲣ⳿ⲡⲱⲃϣ ⳿ⲉϭⲓⲱⲓⲕ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲓ ⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ.
15“Watch out!” He cautioned them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of Herod.”
15ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥϩⲟⲛϩⲉⲛ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲟⲩϣⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲁ ⳿ⲡϣⲉⲙⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲪⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲡϣⲉⲙⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛⲎ̇ⲣⲱⲇⲏⲥ.
16So they began to discuss with one another the fact that they had no bread.
16ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲙⲟⲕⲙⲉⲕ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ.
17Aware of their conversation, Jesus asked them, “Why are you debating about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Do you have such hard hearts?
17ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁϧⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲟⲕⲙⲉⲕ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲕⲁϯ ⲁⲛ ⳿ϥⲑⲏⲙ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ.
18‘Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?’ And do you not remember?
18ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲃⲁⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲙⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲙⲁϣϫ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⲁⲛ.
19When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Twelve,” they answered.
19⳿ⲙⲡⲓ ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛⲱⲓⲕ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲓⲫⲁϣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ ⲉ̅ ⳿ⲛϣⲟ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲗ ⲟⲩⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛⲕⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲗⲁⲕϩ ⲉⲩⲙⲉϩ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲓ̅ⲃ̅.
20“And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Seven,” they said.
20ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲍ̅ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲇ̅ ⳿ⲛϣⲟ ϫⲉ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲗ ⲟⲩⲏⲣ ⳿ⲙⲃⲓⲣ ⲉⲩⲙⲉϩ ⳿ⲛⲗⲁⲕϩ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲍ̅.
21Then He asked them, “Do you still not understand?”
21ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲱⲥ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲕⲁϯ ⲁⲛ.
22When they arrived at Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him.
22ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲂⲏⲑⲥⲁⲓⲇⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲃⲉⲗⲗⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩϯϩⲟ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϭⲓⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ.
23So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then He spit on the man’s eyes and placed His hands on him. “Can you see anything?” He asked.
23ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲃⲉⲗⲗⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲛϥ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϯⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϩⲓⲑⲁϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⲁϥⲭⲁ ⲛⲉϥϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲉϫⲱϥ ⲛⲁϥϣⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲕⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
24The man looked up and said, “I can see the people, but they look like trees walking around.”
24ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲙⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲁϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛ⳿ϣϣⲏⲛ ⲉⲩⲙⲟϣⲓ.
25Once again Jesus placed His hands on the man’s eyes, and when he opened them his sight was restored, and he could see everything clearly.
25⳿ⲓⲧⲁ ⲟⲛ ⲁϥⲭⲁ ⲛⲉϥϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲙⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
26Jesus sent him home and said, “Do not go back into the village.”

27Then Jesus and His disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say I am?”

28They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”

29“But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
29ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲛⲁϥϣⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲩ⳿ⲱ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
30And Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about Him.

31Then He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and after three days rise again.
31ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲉⲣϩⲏⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ϩⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡ̇ϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲪ̇ⲣⲱⲙⲓ ϭⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛϧⲓⲥⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩϣⲟϣϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲓⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ⳿ⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲥⲁϧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩϧⲟⲑⲃⲉϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲅ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲧⲱⲛϥ.
32He spoke this message quite frankly, and Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.
32ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲣⲏⲥⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲉⲣϩⲏⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛⲉⲣ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲧⲓⲙⲁⲛ ⲛⲁϥ.
33But Jesus, turning and looking at His disciples, rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind Me, Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”
33⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲫⲟⲛϩϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿⳿ⲉⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁϥⲉⲣ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲧⲓⲙⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲠⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁϣⲉⲛⲁⲕ ⲥⲁⲫⲁϩⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲭⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁ Ⲫϯ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ.
34Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples, and He told them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.
