1⳿ⲥⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϧⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛϥⲁⲓ ϧⲁ ⲛⲓϣⲱⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲁⲧϫⲟⲙ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲣⲁⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲉⲛ.
1We who are strong ought to bear with the shortcomings of the weak and not to please ourselves.
2ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲣⲁⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲡⲉⲑⲛⲁⲛⲉϥ ⲉⲩⲕⲱⲧ.
2Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.
3ⲕⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲉⲧⲁϥⲣⲁⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓϣⲱϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϯ⳿ϣⲫⲓⲧ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲓ.
3For even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written: “The insults of those who insult You have fallen on Me.”
4ϩⲱⲃ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲉⲣϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥϧⲏ ⲧⲟⲩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ϯϩⲩⲡⲟⲙⲟⲛⲏ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϯⲛⲟⲙϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲛⲁⲛ.
4For everything that was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures, we might have hope.
5ⲫϯ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯϩⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲗⲏ ⲥⲓⲥ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉϯ ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏ ⲟⲩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
5Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement grant you harmony with one another in Christ Jesus,
6ϩⲓⲛⲁ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲣⲱ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϯⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲛϭ̅ ⲥ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
6so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ϣⲉⲡ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ϩⲱϥ ⲉⲧⲁ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϣⲉⲡ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲩⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ.
7Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring glory to God.
8ϯϫⲱ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲇⲓ⳿ⲁⲕⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲉⲃⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϫⲉⲭⲁⲥ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϫⲣⲉ ⲛⲓⲱϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟϯ.
8For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the circumcised on behalf of God’s truth, to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs,
9ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉϯⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϫⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ϯⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲛⲁⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲛⲁⲉⲣⲯⲁⲗⲓⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲣⲁⲛ.
9so that the Gentiles may glorify God for His mercy. As it is written: “Therefore I will praise You among the Gentiles; I will sing hymns to Your name.”
10ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲟⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲟϥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉϥⲗⲁⲟⲥ.
10Again, it says: “Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people.”
11ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲟⲛ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲠ⳪ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ.
11And again: “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles, and extol Him, all you peoples.”
12ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲏⲥⲁⲏⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲥ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲑⲛⲟⲩⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲓⲉⲥⲥⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁⲧⲱⲛϥ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣⲁⲣⲭⲱⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉⲉⲣϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ.
12And once more, Isaiah says: “The Root of Jesse will appear, One who will arise to rule over the Gentiles; in Him the Gentiles will put their hope.”
13ⲫϯ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉⲙⲁϩ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲣⲁϣⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯϩⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡϫⲓⲛ⳿ⲑⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ϧⲉⲛ ϯ ϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ϯϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲉⲑⲟⲩⲁⲃ.
13Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
14⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϩⲱ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲡⲁϩⲏⲧ ⲑⲏⲧ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉϩ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲁⲅⲁⲑⲟⲛ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉϩ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ.
14I myself am convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, brimming with knowledge, and able to instruct one another.
15ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲧⲟⲗⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲓ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲁⲡⲟⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲓϯ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲧⲏⲓϥ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ.
15However, I have written you a bold reminder on some points, because of the grace God has given me
16ⲉⲑⲣⲓϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲓⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲣⲉϥⲫⲱϣⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲓⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲟⲩⲏ ⲃ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲥⲫⲱⲣⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲥϣⲏⲡ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲥⲧⲟⲩⲃⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲃ.
16to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
17ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲏⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲁ ⲫϯ.
17Therefore I exult in Christ Jesus in my service to God.
18ⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲉⲣⲧⲟⲗⲙⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲥⲁϫⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲛϧⲏ ⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧ ⲉⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁϫⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡϩⲱⲃ.
18I will not presume to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obedience by word and deed,
19ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲃ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉⲥⲕⲱϯ ϣⲁ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓ⳿ⲁⲗⲗⲩⲣⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲙⲁϩⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
19by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Spirit of God. So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.
20ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲓⲙⲉⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲓϣⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩϥⲓ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲙⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩϫⲉ ⳿ⲫⲣⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲠⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲕⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲉⲛϯ ⳿ⲛϣⲉⲙⲙⲟ.
20In this way I have aspired to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation.
21ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲧⲁⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲑⲃⲏ ⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉⲕⲁϯ.
21Rather, as it is written: “Those who were not told about Him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.”
22ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲁⲓⲧⲁϩⲛⲟ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲥⲟⲡ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ.
22That is why I have often been hindered from coming to you.
23ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛϯ ⲙⲁ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁⲓⲥⲁ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲇⲉ ϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲓⲥ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ.
23But now that there are no further opportunities for me in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to visit you,
24ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲓⲛⲁϣⲉⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϯ⳿ⲥⲡⲁⲛⲓ⳿ⲁ ϯⲉⲣϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲉⲓⲛⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲙⲁⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲧⲫⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲙⲁⲩ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲓϣⲁⲛⲥⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲁⲡⲟⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ.
24I hope to see you on my way to Spain. And after I have enjoyed your company for a while, you can equip me for my journey.
25ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ϯⲛⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ⳿ⲉϣⲉⲙϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲑⲟⲩⲁⲃ.
25Now, however, I am on my way to Jerusalem to serve the saints there.
26ⲁⲩϯⲙⲁϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲑⲙⲁⲕⲉⲇⲟⲛⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲁⲭⲁⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲉ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓϩⲏⲕⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅.
26For Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem.
27ⲁⲩϯⲙⲁϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲱⲟⲩ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲣ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲥⲉ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϣⲉⲙϣⲏⲧⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲕⲉⲥⲁⲣⲕⲓⲕⲟⲛ.
27They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual blessings, they are obligated to minister to them with material blessings.
28ⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲓϣⲁⲛϫⲟⲕϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲉⲣ⳿ⲥ⳿ⲫⲣⲁⲅⲓⲍⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲟⲩⲧⲁϩ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲓ⳿ⲉϣⲉ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϯ⳿ⲥⲡⲁⲛⲓ⳿ⲁ.
28So after I have completed this service and have safely delivered this bounty to them, I will set off to Spain by way of you.
29ϯⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲛⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲁⲓⲛⲏⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲟϩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
29I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.
30ϯϯϩⲟ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲛ⳪ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ϯ⳿ⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲑⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣ⳿ⲁⲅⲱⲛⲓⲍⲉⲥⲑⲉ ⲛⲉⲙⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲥⲉⲩⲭⲏ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲓ ϩⲁ ⲫϯ.
30Now I urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.
31ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲛⲟϩⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲁⲧⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ϯⲓⲟⲩⲇⲉ⳿ⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲁⲇⲓ⳿ⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲥϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲥϣⲏⲡ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲁⲅⲓⲟⲥ.
31Pray that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints there,
32ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲁⲓϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲁϣⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉϩⲛⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ.
32so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy and together with you be refreshed.

33The God of peace be with all of you. Amen.
