1ⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛⲃⲱⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲙⲁ⳿ⲛϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲧϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲁⲑⲙⲟⲩⲛⲕ ⳿ⲛϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉⲛⲉϩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲫⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ..
1For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens.
2ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉⲛϥⲓ⳿ⲁϩⲟⲙ ⲉⲛϭⲓϣϣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϯϩⲓ⳿ⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲙⲁ⳿ⲛϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ..
2For most certainly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,
3ⲓⲉ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛⲧⲏⲓϥ ϩⲓ⳿ⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϫⲉⲙⲉⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲃⲏϣ..
3if indeed being clothed, we will not be found naked.
4ⲕⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϧⲁ ⲛⲏ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲡ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲁⲓⲙⲁ⳿ⲛϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲧⲉⲛϥⲓ⳿ⲁϩⲟⲙ ⲉⲛϩⲟⲣϣ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲁϣⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲁϩⲉⲙ ⲧⲏⲓϥ ϩⲓⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉⲱⲙⲕ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲉϣⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲱⲛϧ..
4For indeed we who are in this tent do groan, being burdened, not that we desire to be unclothed, but that we desire to be clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
5ⲫⲏ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲫϯ ⲡⲉ ⲫⲏ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲁⲣⲏⲃ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ.̅.
5Now he who made us for this very thing is God, who also gave to us the down payment of the Spirit.

6Therefore we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord;
7ⲁⲛⲙⲟϣⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲧ..
7for we walk by faith, not by sight.

8We are courageous, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.
9ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲓⲧⲁⲓⲟⲛ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲉⲛϣⲟⲡ ⲧⲁⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲉⲛⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲛⲣⲁⲛⲁϥ..
9Therefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well pleasing to him.

10For we must all be revealed before the judgment seat of Christ that each one may receive the things in the body according to what he has done, whether good or bad.
11ⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϯϩⲟϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ⲧⲉⲛⲑⲱⲧ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ϯ ⲉⲣϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲟⲩⲟⲛϩⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲕⲉⲥⲩⲛⲏⲇⲏⲥⲓⲥ..
11Knowing therefore the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are revealed to God, and I hope that we are revealed also in your consciences.

12For we are not commending ourselves to you again, but speak as giving you occasion of boasting on our behalf, that you may have something to answer those who boast in appearance and not in heart.
13⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲥⲓϩⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲓⲉ ⲁⲛⲥⲓϩⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲕⲁϯ ⲓⲉ ⲁⲛⲕⲁϯ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ..
13For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God. Or if we are of sober mind, it is for you.
14ϯⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲥ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲁⲛϯϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲉⲫⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲣⲁ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩ..
14For the love of Christ compels us; because we judge thus: that one died for all, therefore all died.
15ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲛⲏ ⲉⲧⲟⲛϧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲱⲛϧ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ..
15He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.
16ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲛⲥⲟⲩⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ..
16Therefore we know no one according to the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.
17ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲥⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲙⲃⲉⲣⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲓⲁⲣⲭⲉⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲥⲓⲛⲓ ⲓⲥ ϩⲁⲛⲃⲉⲣⲓ ⲁⲩϣⲱⲡⲓ..
17Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.
18ϩⲱⲃ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⲛⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁϥϩⲟⲧⲡⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲉⲙϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲱⲧⲡ..
18But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19ϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⲛⲁϥϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥϩⲱⲧⲡ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϥⲱⲡ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲁⲡⲧⲱⲙⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲭⲱ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲱⲧⲡ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲉⲛ..
19namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20ⲁⲛⲉⲣ⳿ⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲉⲩⲓⲛ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲱⲥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲉ ⲫϯ ϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲛⲟⲙϯ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲓⲧⲟⲧⲉⲛ ⲧⲉⲛ ϯϩⲟ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲙⲁ ⳿ⲙⲠⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲱⲧⲡ ⳿ⲉⲫϯ..
20We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.

21For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
