1But a certain man named Ananias, with Saphira his wife, sold a piece of land,
2ⲉⲥⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲁϥ⳿ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛϭⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ϯⲧⲓⲙⲏ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲓⲟϩⲓ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲭⲁⲩ ϧⲁⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ..
2And by fraud kept back part of the price of the land, his wife being privy thereunto: and bringing a certain part of it, laid it at the feet of the apostles.
3Ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲁⲛⲓⲁⲥ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ⲙⲁϩ ⲡⲉⲕϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲑⲣⲉⲕϫⲉⲙⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ ⳿ⲉⲡⲠⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲉⲑⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲑⲣⲉⲕ⳿ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛϭⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ϯⲧⲓⲙⲏ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲓⲟϩⲓ ..
3But Peter said: Ananias, why hath Satan tempted thy heart, that thou shouldst lie to the Holy Ghost, and by fraud keep part of the price of the land?
4ⲙⲏⲉϥϣⲟⲡ ⲛⲁϥϣⲟⲡ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲕⲧⲏⲓϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲁϥⲭⲏ ⲁⲛ ϧⲁ ⲧⲉⲕⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲕⲭⲁ ⲡⲁⲓϩⲱⲃ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲕϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲕϫⲉⲙⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲉⲫϯ ..
4Whilst it remained, did it not remain to thee? and after it was sold, was it not in thy power? Why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart? Thou hast not lied to men, but to God.

5And Ananias hearing these words, fell down, and gave up the ghost. And there came great fear upon all that heard it.

6And the young men rising up, removed him, and carrying him out, buried him.

7And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in.
8ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲓ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲓⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲁ ⲛⲁⲓϩⲁⲧ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁϩⲁ ϧⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ ..
8And Peter said to her: Tell me, woman, whether you sold the land for so much? And she said: Yea, for so much.
9Ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁ ⲡⲁⲓϩⲱⲃ ϯⲙⲁϯ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲛⲓϭⲁⲗⲁⲩϫ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲑⲱⲙⲥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϩⲁⲓ ⲥⲉⲭⲏ ϩⲓⲣⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϥⲓϯ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲱⲓ ..
9And Peter said unto her: Why have you agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold the feet of them who have buried thy husband are at the door, and they shall carry thee out.
10ⲁⲥϩⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ϧⲁⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥϭⲁⲗⲁⲩϫ ⲁⲥϩⲓ ⲡⲉⲥⲑⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓϧⲉⲗϣ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⲁⲩϫⲉⲙⲥ ⲉⲥⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲗⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲩⲭⲁⲥ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲥϩⲁⲓ ..
10Immediately she fell down before his feet, and gave up the ghost. And the young men coming in, found her dead: and carried her out, and buried her by her husband.
11ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲟϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ϯⲉⲕ⳿ⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲓ ..
11And there came great fear upon the whole church, and upon all that heard these things.
12⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲇⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲛϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩϣⲟⲡ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲑⲟⲩⲏⲧ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲥⲟⲡ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ϯ⳿ⲥⲧⲟⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲥⲟⲗⲟⲙⲱⲛ ..
12And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.
13⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⲇⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲥⲱϫⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⲉⲣⲧⲟⲗⲙⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲧⲟⲙϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲓⲗⲁⲟⲥ ϭⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ..
13But of the rest no man durst join himself unto them; but the people magnified them.
14ⲙⲁⲗⲗⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲠ⳪ ⲉⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛϩⲓ⳿ⲟⲙⲓ ..
14And the multitude of men and women who believed in the Lord, was more increased:

15Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that when Peter came, his shadow at the least, might overshadow any of them, and they might be delivered from their infirmities.
16ⲛⲁⲩⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲉⲧⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲉⲒⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧϣⲱⲛⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϩⲏ ϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲧⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϣⲁⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲓⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ ..
16And there came also together to Jerusalem a multitude out of the neighboring cities, bringing sick persons, and such as were troubled with unclean spirits; who were all healed.
17ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ⳿ⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲑⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲧϩⲉⲣⲉⲥⲓⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲤⲁⲇⲇⲟⲩⲕⲉⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲙⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲭⲟϩ ..
17Then the high priest rising up, and all they that were with him, (which is the heresy of the Sadducees,) were filled with envy.
18ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲭⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲇⲏⲙⲟⲥⲓ⳿ⲁ.
18And they laid hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.
19ⲟⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲣϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ..
19But an angel of the Lord by night opening the doors of the prison, and leading them out, said:
20ϫⲉ ⲙⲁϣⲉⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲥⲁϫⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓⲱⲛϧ ..
20Go, and standing speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
21⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϣⲟⲣⲡⲟⲩ ⲁⲩϣⲉⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲛⲁⲩϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ⳿ⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲑⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲑⲱⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛϯϩⲁⲡ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϧⲉⲗⲗⲟⲓ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲛϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲠⲓ̅ⲥ̅ⲗ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱⲛϩ ⲉⲑⲣⲟⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ..
21Who having heard this, early in the morning, entered into the temple, and taught. And the high priest coming, and they that were with him, called together the council, and all the ancients of the children of Israel; and they sent to the prison to have them brought.
22⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓϩⲩⲡⲉⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩϫⲉⲙⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲕⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲙⲱⲟⲩ ..
22But when the ministers came, and opening the prison, found them not there, they returned and told,
23ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛϫⲓⲙⲓ ⲙⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱⲛϩ ⲉϥϣⲟⲧⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲧⲁϫⲣⲟ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϩ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ⳿ⲛϫⲉⲙ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲟⲩⲛ ..
23Saying: The prison indeed we found shut with all diligence, and the keepers standing before the doors; but opening it, we found no man within.
24⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲥⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲩⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ⳿ⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲁⲩⲧⲱⲙⲧ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲓ ..
24Now when the officer of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were in doubt concerning them, what would come to pass.
25ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲙⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲭⲁⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲕⲟ ⲥⲉ⳿ⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲉⲩ ϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲗⲁⲟⲥ ..
25But one came and told them: Behold, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple standing, and teaching the people.
26ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥϣⲉⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲩⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϩⲩⲡⲉⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲟⲛⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲟϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ϧⲁ⳿ⲧϩⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲙⲏ ⲡⲱⲥ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϩⲓ⳿ⲱⲛⲓ ⳿ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ..
26Then went the officer with the ministers, and brought them without violence; for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.
27⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩ⳿ⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲧⲁϩⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛϯϩⲁⲡ ⲁϥϣⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ⳿ⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ..
27And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest asked them,

28Saying: Commanding we commanded you, that you should not teach in this name; and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and you have a mind to bring the blood of this man upon us.
29ⲁϥ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲩ⳿ⲱ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲥⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ Ⲫϯ ⳿⳿ⲉϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ..
29But Peter and the apostles answering, said: We ought to obey God, rather than men.

30The God of our fathers hath raised up Jesus, whom you put to death, hanging him upon a tree.

31Him hath God exalted with his right hand, to be Prince and Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and remission of sins.

33When they had heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they thought to put them to death.

34But one in the council rising up, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, respected by all the people, commanded the men to be put forth a little while.

35And he said to them: Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do, as touching these men.

36For before these days rose up Theodas, affirming himself to be somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all that believed him were scattered, and brought to nothing.
37ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲥ ⲡⲓⲄⲁⲗⲓⲗⲉⲟⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲉⲡⲓ⳿ⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲥⲉⲕ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲥⲁⲫⲁϩⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲭⲉⲧ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲑⲏⲧ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲃⲱⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ..
37After this man, rose up Judas of Galilee, in the days of the enrolling, and drew away the people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as consented to him, were dispersed.
38ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϫⲉ ϩⲉⲛⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲁ ⲛⲁⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲭⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲡⲁⲓⲥⲟϭⲛⲓ ⲓⲉ ⲡⲁⲓϩⲱⲃ ⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲓⲉ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲃⲱⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ..
38And now, therefore, I say to you, refrain from these men, and let them alone; for if this council or this work be of men, it will come to nought;
39ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ Ⲫϯ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲏ ⲡⲟⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϫⲉⲙ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲣⲉϥϯ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ..
39But if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it, lest perhaps you be found even to fight against God. And they consented to him.
