1Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,
2ⲛⲉⲙ ⲁⲡⲫⲓⲁ ϯⲥⲱⲛⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲁⲣⲭⲓⲡⲡⲟⲥ ⲡⲉⲛ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲧⲟⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲉⲕ⳿ⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲏⲓ.
2And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:
3⳿ⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲧϩⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲡⲉⲛⲓⲱⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉⲛ⳪ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
3Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

4I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,

5Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;
6ϩⲟⲡⲱⲥ ϯⲙⲉⲧ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲥⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲥⲟⲩⲉⲛ ⲁⲅⲁⲑⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲠⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
6That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
7ⲁⲓϭⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛⲣⲁϣⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲙϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲧⲉⲕⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙⲉⲧϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲑⲙⲁϧⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲁⲅⲓⲟⲥ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧⲕ ⲡⲓⲥⲟⲛ.
7For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
8ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲏⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲣⲏⲥⲓⲁ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡ⳪ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲁϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲓ ⲛⲁⲕ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧ⳿ⲥϣⲉ.
8Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
9ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⳿ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲙⲁⲗⲗⲟⲛ ϯϯϩⲟ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ϩⲱ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲡⲓϧⲉⲗⲗⲟⲓ ϯ ⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲥⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅.
9Yet for love’s sake I rather beseech thee , being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
10ϯϯϩⲟ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲓ⳿ϫⲫⲟϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲁⲩϩ ⲟⲛⲏⲥⲓⲙⲟⲥ.
10I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
11ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲁϥⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲁⲧϣⲁⲩ ⲛⲁⲕ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲏ ⲟⲩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ϥⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛϣⲁⲩ ⲛⲏⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲁⲕ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲓⲟⲩⲟⲣⲡϥ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲕ.
11Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
12⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ϣⲟⲡϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲁⲙⲉⲧϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲑⲙⲁϧⲧ.
12Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
13ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲁⲓⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϧⲁⲧⲟⲧ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϣⲉⲙϣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲕϣⲉⲃⲓⲱ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲥⲛⲁⲩϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ.
13Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
14ⲁϭⲛⲉ ⲧⲉⲕ⳿ⲅⲛⲱⲙⲏ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ ⲡⲉⲕⲡⲉⲑⲛⲁⲛⲉϥ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲟⲩⲁⲛⲁⲅⲕⲏ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲟⲩⲧϥ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ.
14But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
15ⲧⲁⲭⲁ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲁϥⲫⲱⲣϫ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲕϭⲓⲧϥ ⳿ⲛⲉⲛⲉϩ.
15For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;
16⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲉⲛⲣⲓⲧ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲧ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲙⲁⲗⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲛⲏⲓ ⲁⲩⲏⲣ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲗⲗⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡ⳪.
16Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
17ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲕ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ϣⲫⲏ ⲣ ϣⲟⲡϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ.
17If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
18ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϭⲓⲧⲕ ⳿ⲛϫⲟⲛⲥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⲓⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲡϥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ.
18If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;
19⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲁⲓ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲧⲁϫⲓϫ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲑⲛⲁⲧⲱⲃ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲕ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲕⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⳿ⲙⲙⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ⳿ⲉⲧⲏⲓⲕ ⲛⲏⲓ.
19I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it : albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.
20ⲁϩⲁ ⲡⲁⲥⲟⲛ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲓ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲕ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡ⳪ ⲙⲁ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲙⲉⲧϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲑⲙⲁϧⲧ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
20Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.

21Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.

22But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
