1Now, brothers, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to him, we ask you
1ⲧⲉⲛϯϩⲟ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲛ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲡⲁⲣⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲛ⳪ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩϯ ϩⲱⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
2not to be quickly shaken in your mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter as if from us, saying that the day of Christ has already come.
2ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲩⲕⲓⲙ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲭⲱⲗⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲁϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ⳿ϣⲑⲟⲣⲧⲉⲣ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲉⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲗⲏ ϩⲱⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁϥϧⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲡ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲠ⳪.
3Let no one deceive you in any way. For it will not be unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of destruction.
3⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲛ⳿ⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⲉⲣϩⲁⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛⲣⲏϯ ϫⲉ ⲁⲥ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯ ⳿ⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲧⲁⲕⲟ.
4He opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself up as God.
4ⲡⲓⲁⲛⲧⲓⲕⲓⲙⲉⲛⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϭⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲉⲛⲭⲁⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲓⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩϣⲉⲙϣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϩⲉⲙⲥⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲡⲉ.
5Don’t you remember that when I was still with you, I told you these things?
5⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲓ ⲉⲛⲭⲏ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲛϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ.
6Now you know what is restraining him, to the end that he may be revealed in his own season.
6ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲟⲛ ⲡⲉⲧ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲑⲣⲉϥϭⲱⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲏ ⲟⲩ.
7For the mystery of lawlessness already works. Only there is one who restrains now, until he is taken out of the way.
7ⲡⲓⲙⲩⲥⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲧ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓ⳿ⲁ ϩⲏⲇⲏ ⲥⲉⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲙⲟⲛⲟⲛ ⲡⲉⲧ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ϣⲁⲧⲉϥⲗⲟϫϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲑⲙⲏϯ.
8Then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will kill with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the manifestation of his coming;
8ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲉϥ⳿ⲉϭⲱⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲁⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉ Ⲡ⳪ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲧⲁⲕⲟϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲣⲱϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲕⲟⲣϥϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥϫⲓⲛ⳿ⲓ.
9even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
9ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥϫⲓⲛ⳿ⲓ ⲉϥⲭⲏ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲟⲩⲉⲛⲉⲣⲅⲓⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ϫⲟⲙ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ.
10and with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they didn’t receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
10ⲛⲉⲙ ⲁⲡⲁⲧⲏ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡϭⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲟⲛⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩϣⲉⲡ ϯⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲑⲣⲟⲩⲛⲟϩⲉⲙ.
11Because of this, God sends them a powerful delusion, that they should believe a lie,
11ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ⲫϯ ⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲣⲡ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲉⲛⲉⲣⲅⲓⲁ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲗⲁⲛⲏⲉⲑⲣⲟⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲙⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ.
12that they all might be judged who didn’t believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
12ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϯϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲩϯⲙⲁϯ ϧⲉⲛ ϯⲙⲉⲧϭⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲟⲛⲥ.
13But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth,
13⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲛ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲥⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛϣⲉⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲥⲏ ⲟⲩ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϧⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁ Ⲡ⳪ ⲙⲉⲛⲣⲓⲧⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁ ⲫϯ ⲥⲉⲧⲡ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲁⲡⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲧⲟⲩⲃⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ.
14to which he called you through our Good News, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
14ⲉⲧⲉ ⲫⲏ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲑⲁϩⲉⲙ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲧϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲉⲩⲧⲁⲛϧⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛ⳪ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
15So then, brothers, stand firm and hold the traditions which you were taught by us, whether by word or by letter.

16Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,
