Coptic New Testament

1ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲁⲅⲓⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϣⲫⲏ ⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲑⲱϩⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲙⲁⲓⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏ ⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲏⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅.

1Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation, consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus:

2ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲟⲧ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲑⲁⲙⲓⲟϥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ϩⲱϥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥⲏⲓ.

2Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his house.

3ⲁ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲧⲁⲓⲟ ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁϥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲧⲁⲓⲟ ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲑⲁⲙⲓⲟϥ.

3For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so much as he that hath built the house, hath greater honour than the house.

4ⲏⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉϣⲁⲩⲥⲉⲃⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲫⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲑⲁⲙⲓ⳿ⲉ ⲉⲛⲭⲁⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲡⲉ.

4For every house is built by some man: but he that created all things, is God.

5ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲙⲉⲛ ⳿ϥⲉⲛϩⲟⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥⲏⲓ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲩⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧⲟⲩⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ.

5And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be said:

6Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥⲏⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉϥⲏⲓ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯ ϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⲉϥⲧⲁϫⲣⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϣⲁ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.

6But Christ as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end.

7ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲉⲑⲟⲩⲁⲃ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲫⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϣⲁⲛⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ.

7Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: Today if you shall hear his voice,

8⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣϯ⳿ⲛϣⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓϫⲱⲛⲧ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲓⲣⲁⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ϩⲓ ⳿ⲡϣⲁϥⲉ.

8Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation; in the day of temptation in the desert,

9ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲣⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲓⲟϯ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϭⲱⲛⲧ ⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁ⳿ϩⲃⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ.

9Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works,

10⳿ⲛⲙ̅ ⳿ⲛⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲁⲓⲙⲉⲥⲧⲉ ⲡⲓϫⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲓϫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲥⲱⲣⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲥⲟⲩⲉⲛ ⲛⲁⲙⲱⲓⲧ.

10Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways,

11⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁⲓⲱⲣⲕ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲁϫⲱⲛⲧ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϣⲉ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲁⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲉⲙⲧⲟⲛ.

11As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest.

12⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲙⲏⲡⲟⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲉϥϩⲱⲟⲩ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲁⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ⲉⲑⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁ ⲫϯ ⲉⲧⲟⲛϧ.

12Take heed, brethren, lest perhaps there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, to depart from the living God.

13ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲁⲛⲟⲙϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏⲛⲓ ϣⲁ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲫⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲛϣⲱⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲡⲁⲧⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲃⲓ.

13But exhort one another every day, whilst it is called today, that none of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

14ⲁⲛⲉⲣ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲠⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⳿ⲛϯϩⲩⲡⲟⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ϣⲁ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲥⲧⲁϫⲣⲏⲟⲩⲧ.

14For we are made partakers of Christ: yet so, if we hold the beginning of his substance firm unto the end.

15ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡϫⲓⲛϫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲫⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϣⲁⲛⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣϯⲉⲛϣⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓϫⲱⲛⲧ.

15While it is said, Today if you shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in that provocation.

16ϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲁⲩϯ ϫⲱⲛⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲭⲏⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ.

16For some who heard did provoke: but not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.

17ⲛⲓⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ϩⲣⲟϣ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲙ̅ ⳿ⲛⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ ⲙⲏ ⲛⲏ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲉⲗⲓ ϩⲉⲓ ϩⲓ ⳿ⲡϣⲁϥⲉ.

17And with whom was he offended forty years? Was it not with them that sinned, whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert?

18ⲛⲓⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲱⲣⲕ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲉⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⲙⲏ ⲛⲏ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ.

18And to whom did he swear, that they should not enter into his rest: but to them that were incredulous?

19ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩ⳿ϣϫⲉⲙϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲧⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲁⲑⲛⲁϩϯ

19And we see that they could not enter in, because of unbelief.
