1ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲁⲗⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓϫⲟⲓ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲙⲏⲣ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉϥⲃⲁⲕⲓ.
1Jesus got into a boat, crossed over, and came to His own town.
2ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲉϥϣⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉϥ⳿ϣⲧⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϭⲗⲟϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧϣⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ϫⲉⲙⲛⲟⲙϯ ⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲛⲉⲕⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲥⲉⲭⲏ ⲛⲁⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
2Just then some men brought to Him a paralytic lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Take courage, son; your sins are forgiven.”
3ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲓⲥ ϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲥⲁϧ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ϫⲉⲟⲩ⳿ⲁ.
3On seeing this, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man is blaspheming!”
4ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉⲛⲟⲩⲙⲟⲕⲙⲉⲕ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲟⲕⲙⲉⲕ ⳿ⲉϩⲁⲛⲡⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ.
4But Jesus knew what they were thinking and said, “Why do you harbor evil in your hearts?
5ⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲑⲙⲟⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉϫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲕⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲥⲉⲭⲏ ⲛⲁⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϣⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉϫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲧⲱⲛⲕ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲟϣⲓ.
5Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk?’
6ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡ̇ϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲪ̇ⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛⲉⲣϣⲓϣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲭⲁ ⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧϣⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲧⲱⲛⲕ ⳿ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲕϭⲗⲟϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲁϣⲉⲛⲁⲕ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲏⲓ.
6But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...” Then He said to the paralytic, “Get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”
7ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⲁϥϣⲉⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲏⲓ.
7And the man got up and went home.

8When the crowds saw this, they were filled with awe and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
9ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϥⲥⲓⲛⲓ⳿ⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲉϥϩⲉⲙⲥⲓ ϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲧⲉⲗⲱⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ Ⲙⲁⲧⲑⲉⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⲁϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱϥ.
9As Jesus went on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him, and Matthew got up and followed Him.
10ⲉϥⲣⲱⲧⲉⲃ ⲇⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲤⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲓⲥ ϩⲁⲛⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲣⲉϥⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛⲧⲉⲗⲱⲛⲏⲥ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲁⲩⲣⲟⲑⲃⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
10Later, as Jesus was dining at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with Him and His disciples.
11ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲪⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲣⲉϥϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲧⲉⲗⲱⲛⲏⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ.
11When the Pharisees saw this, they asked His disciples, “Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
12ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϫⲟⲣ ⲥⲉⲉⲣ⳿ⲭⲣⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲟⲕϩ.
12On hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
13ⲙⲁϣⲉⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲁⲣⲓ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲁⲓ ⲡⲉϯⲟⲩⲁϣϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϣⲟⲩϣⲱⲟⲩϣⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲁⲓ⳿ⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲑⲁϩⲉⲙ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲉⲩⲙⲉⲧⲁⲛⲟⲓ⳿ⲁ.
13But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
14ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲓⲱⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲪⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⲧ⳿ⲉⲛⲉⲣⲛⲏⲥⲧⲉⲩⲓⲛ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲙⲏϣ ⲛⲉⲕⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲥⲉⲉⲣⲛⲏⲥⲧⲉⲩⲓⲛ ⲁⲛ.
14At that time John’s disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Why is it that we and the Pharisees fast so often, but Your disciples do not fast?”
15ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲙⲏ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲁⲧϣⲉⲗⲉⲧ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣϩⲏⲃⲓ ϩⲟⲥ ⲉϥⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲁⲧϣⲉⲗⲉⲧ ⲥⲉⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲩϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲱⲗⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲡⲁⲧϣⲉⲗⲉⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉⲉⲣⲛⲏⲥⲧⲉⲩⲓⲛ.
15Jesus replied, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while He is with them? But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.
16⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲉ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⲉⲗ ⲟⲩⲧⲱⲓⲥ ⳿ⲙⲃⲉⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϩⲓⲧⲥ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲫⲉⲗϫⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲃⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲁⲡⲁⲥ ϣⲁⲥ⳿ⲱⲗⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲥⲙⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲓ ⲡⲓ⳿ϩⲃⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϣⲁⲣⲉ ⲟⲩⲫⲱϧ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ.
16No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. For the patch will pull away from the garment, and a worse tear will result.

17Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”
18ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲓⲥ ⲟⲩⲁⲣⲭⲱⲛ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲧ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲧⲁϣⲉⲣⲓ ⲙⲟⲩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲩ ⲭⲁ ⲧⲉⲕϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲥ⳿ⲉⲱⲛϧ.
18While Jesus was saying these things, a synagogue leader came and knelt before Him. “My daughter has just died,” he said. “But come and place Your hand on her, and she will live.”
19ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
19So Jesus got up and went with him, along with His disciples.
20ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲓⲥ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲉ ⳿ⲡ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ϣⲁⲧ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ⳿ⲛⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ ⲁⲥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲥⲁⲫⲁϩⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲥϭⲓⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲡ⳿ϣⲧⲁϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥ⳿ϩⲃⲟⲥ.
20Suddenly a woman who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak.
21ⲛⲁⲥϫⲱ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲥ ϫⲉ ⲙⲟⲛⲟⲛ ⲁⲓϣⲁⲛϭⲓⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲡ⳿ϣⲧⲁϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥ⳿ϩⲃⲟⲥ ϯⲛⲁⲛⲟϩⲉⲙ.
21She said to herself, “If only I touch His cloak, I will be healed.”
22Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲫⲟⲛϩϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ϫⲉⲙⲛⲟⲙϯ ⲧⲁϣⲉⲣⲓ ⲡⲉⲛⲁϩϯ ⲡⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁϩⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲥⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ϯⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
22Jesus turned and saw her. “Take courage, daughter,” He said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was cured from that very hour.
23ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡⲏⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲁⲣⲭⲱⲛ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲣⲉϥϫⲱⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ⲉⲩ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲣⲑⲱⲣ.
23When Jesus entered the house of the synagogue leader, He saw the flute players and the noisy crowd.
24ⲛⲁϥϫⲱ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲙⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯ⳿ⲁⲗⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲥⲉⲛⲕⲟⲧ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲥⲱⲃⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲡⲉ.
24“Go away,” He told them. “The girl is not dead, but asleep.” And they laughed at Him.
25ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩϩⲓ ⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥϣⲉⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⲁϥ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲥϫⲓϫ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲥⲧⲱⲛⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯ⳿ⲁⲗⲟⲩ.
25After the crowd had been put outside, Jesus went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up.
26ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲁ ⲧⲉⲥ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ϣⲉⲛⲁⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
26And the news about this spread throughout that region.
27ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲩⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲃⲉⲗⲗⲉ ⲃ̅ ⲉⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲆⲁⲩⲓⲇ.
27As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”
28⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲏⲓ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲗⲗⲉⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉ Ⲡⲉⲛ⳪.
28After Jesus had entered the house, the blind men came to Him. “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” He asked. “Yes, Lord,” they answered.
29ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥϭⲓⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲟⲩⲃⲁⲗ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⲉⲥ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ.
29Then He touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith will it be done to you.”
30ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲃⲁⲗ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϩⲟⲛϩⲉⲛ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲛ⳿ⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ.
30And their eyes were opened. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one finds out about this!”
31⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲩⲥⲉⲣ ⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
31But they went out and spread the news about Him throughout the land.
32ⲉϥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲉⲃⲟ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲇⲉⲙⲱⲛ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ.
32As they were leaving, a demon-possessed man who was mute was brought to Jesus.
33ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϩⲓ ⲡⲓⲇⲉⲙⲱⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉⲃⲟ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲉⲣ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⳿⳿ⲉⲛⲉϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲓ̅ⲥ̅ⲗ̅.
33And when the demon had been driven out, the man began to speak. The crowds were amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”
34ⲛⲓⲪⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲇⲉⲙⲱⲛ ⲁϥϩⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲇⲉⲙⲱⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
34But the Pharisees said, “It is by the prince of demons that He drives out demons.”
35ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁϥⲕⲱϯ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲃⲁⲕⲓ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϯⲙⲓ ⲉϥϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϥϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϥⲉⲣⲫⲁϧⲣⲓ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲛⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲓⲁⲃⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ.
35Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness.
36⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ⲁϥϣⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ ϧⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲩⲥⲱⲣⲉⲙ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲣⲟϫⲡ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲉⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛⲧⲟⲩ ⲙⲁⲛ⳿ⲉⲥⲱⲟⲩ.
36When He saw the crowds, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
37ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲱⲥϧ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲣⲅⲁⲧⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲕⲟⲩϫⲓ ⲛⲉ.
37Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.
38ⲧⲱⲃϩ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲠ⳪ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲱⲥϧ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲧⲁⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲉⲣⲅⲁⲧⲏⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲱⲥϧ
38Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest.”
