1ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁ ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲁ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉϥϩⲉⲙⲥⲓ ⲥⲁⲟⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲁⲙ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ.
1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2ⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁ ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲁⲛ.
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲱⲛϧ ϩⲏⲡ ⲛⲉⲙ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲱⲛϧ ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲱⲟⲩ.
4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉϥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓϫⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲁⲧⲑⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ.
6For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲱⲛϧ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ.
7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.

9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϯ ϩⲓ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲙⲃⲉⲣⲓ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁⲉⲣⲃⲉⲣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⳿ⲧϩⲓⲕⲱⲛ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲥⲟⲛⲧϥ.
10And have put on the new man , which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

11Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
12ⲙⲟⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ϩⲓ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲥⲱⲧⲡ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲉⲛⲣⲓⲧ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲙⲉⲧϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲑⲙⲁϧⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϣⲉⲛϩⲏ ⲧ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧϩⲉⲗϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲑⲉⲃⲓⲟ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉⲙⲣⲁⲩϣ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ.
12Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

13Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.

14And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.

15And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

17And what soever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

18Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.

21Fathers, provoke not your children to anger , lest they be discouraged.

22Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:

24Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.

25But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
