Coptic New Testament
1And Jesus went unto mount Olivet.
1Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲧⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓϫⲱⲓⲧ.
2And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and sitting down he taught them.
2⳿ⲓⲧⲁ ⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲁⲧⲟⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲛⲓⲙⲏ ϣ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϩⲉⲙⲥⲓ ⳿ⲉϯ ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ.
3And the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman taken in adultery: and they set her in the midst,
3ⲛⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ⳿ⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲁⲩϫⲉⲙⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲟⲣⲛⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲧⲁϩⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲑⲙⲏϯ.
4And said to him: Master, this woman was even now taken in adultery.
4ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲫⲣⲉϥϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲧⲁⲓ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲁⲛϫⲉⲙⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲟⲣⲛⲓ⳿ⲁ.
5Now Moses in the law commanded us to stone such a one. But what sayest thou?
5ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲫⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲟⲩⲁϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲓ ⳿ⲉϩⲓⲱⲛⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲥ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲕϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟⲕ.
6And this they said tempting him, that they might accuse him. But Jesus bowing himself down, wrote with his finger on the ground.
6ⲫⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϫⲱϥ ⲉⲩⲉⲣⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩϫⲉⲙ ⲗⲱⲓϫⲓ ϩⲓϫⲱϥ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥⲣⲓⲕⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⲁϥ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲧⲏⲃ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ.
7When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
7ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲱⲥⲕ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⲁϥϥⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲁⲫⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲁϭⲛⲉ ⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥϩⲓⲱⲛⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲥ ⳿ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛⲓ.
8And again stooping down, he wrote on the ground.
8ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥⲣⲉⲕ ϫⲱϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ.
9But they hearing this, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest. And Jesus alone remained, and the woman standing in the midst.
9ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲕⲁϯ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲥⲟϩⲓ ⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲏⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛ⳿Ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲫⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲫⲟⲩⲁⲓ ϣⲁⲧⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲥⲱϫⲡ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲑⲏ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲥⲭⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲑⲙⲏϯ.
10Then Jesus lifting up himself, said to her: Woman, where are they that accused thee? Hath no man condemned thee?
10ⲁ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ϥⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲁⲫⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲱ ϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲁⲩⲑⲱⲛ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩϯϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲉϥϯϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟ.
11Who said: No man, Lord. And Jesus said: Neither will I condemn thee. Go, and now sin no more.

12Again therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying: I am the light of the world: he that followeth me, walketh not in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
12ⲡⲁⲗⲓⲛ ⲟⲛ ⲁϥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲫⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉϭⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲱⲛϧ.
13The Pharisees therefore said to him: Thou givest testimony of thyself: thy testimony is not true.

14Jesus answered, and said to them: Although I give testimony of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go: but you know not whence I come, or whither I go.
14ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲕⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲁⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϧⲁⲣⲟⲓ ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲓ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ϯ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲓ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲑⲱⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲓⲛⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲑⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲁⲓ⳿Ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲑⲱⲛ ⲓⲉ ⲁⲓⲛⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲑⲱⲛ.
15You judge according to the flesh: I judge not any man.

16And if I do judge, my judgment is true: because I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

17And in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true.

18I am one that give testimony of myself: and the Father that sent me giveth testimony of me.

19They said therefore to him: Where is thy Father? Jesus answered: Neither me do you know, nor my Father: if you did know me, perhaps you would know my Father also.
19ⲛⲁⲩϫⲱ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲑⲱⲛ ⲡⲉⲕⲓⲱⲧ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲡⲁⲕⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲛⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲥⲟⲩⲉⲛ ⲡⲁⲕⲉⲓⲱⲧ.
20These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

21Again therefore Jesus said to them: I go, and you shall seek me, and you shall die in your sin. Whither I go, you cannot come.

22The Jews therefore said: Will he kill himself, because he said: Whither I go, you cannot come?

23And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.

24Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.

26Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.

27And they understood not, that he called God his Father.

28Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:

29And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.

30When he spoke these things, many believed in him.

31Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.

33They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?

39They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.

40But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.

41You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.

42Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:

43Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.

44You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he stood not in the truth; because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.
