< Matthew 26 >

1 When Jesus had finished all these words, he said to his disciples,
ⲁ̅ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲱ ⲛⲛⲉⲓϣⲁϫⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
2 “You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.”
ⲃ̅ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲁϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ. ⲛⲥⲉⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲓⲇⲟⲩ ⲙⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲥxⲟ̅ⲩ̅ ⲙⲙⲟϥ.
3 Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the people were gathered together in the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas.
ⲅ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛϭⲓⲛⲉⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲙⲛⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲙⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲗⲏ ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲡⲉϣⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲕⲁⲓⲫⲁⲥ.
4 They took counsel together that they might take Jesus by deceit and kill him.
ⲇ̅ⲁⲩϫⲓϣⲟϫⲛⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϩⲛⲟⲩⲕⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲥⲉⲙⲟⲩⲟⲩⲧ ⲙⲙⲟϥ.
5 But they said, “Not during the feast, lest a riot occur among the people.”
ⲉ̅ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲙⲡϣⲁ ⲁⲛ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲛⲛⲉⲟⲩϣⲧⲟⲣⲧⲣ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲙⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ.
6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
ⲋ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉⲃⲏⲑⲁⲛⲓⲁ ϩⲙⲡⲏⲓ ⲛⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲥⲟⲃϩ.
7 a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he sat at the table.
ⲍ̅ⲁⲥϯⲡⲉⲥⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓⲟⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩϩⲛⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲥⲟϭⲛ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲧⲥ ⲉⲛⲁϣⲉⲥⲟⲩⲛⲧϥ. ⲁⲥⲡⲱϩⲧ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉϫⲛⲧⲉϥⲁⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲛⲏϫ.
8 But when his disciples saw this, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste?
ⲏ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛϭⲓⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁⲩⲁⲅⲁⲛⲁⲕⲧⲉⲓ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲕⲉⲡⲁⲓ.
9 For this ointment might have been sold for much and given to the poor.”

10 However, knowing this, Jesus said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? She has done a good work for me.

11 For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.

12 For in pouring this ointment on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.

13 Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of as a memorial of her.”
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲉ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲙⲡⲉⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ ϩⲙⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϫⲱ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲧⲁⲓ ⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲩⲣⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛⲁⲥ.
14 Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲛϭⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲡⲙⲛⲧⲥⲛⲟⲟⲩⲥ ⲡⲉⲧⲉϣⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲥ ⲡⲓⲥⲕⲁⲣⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ ϣⲁⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ.
15 and said, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver him to you?” So they weighed out for him thirty pieces of silver.

16 From that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

17 Now on the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying to him, “Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?”
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ϩⲙⲡϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲇⲉ ⲛϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ. ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲛϭⲓⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲕⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛⲥⲃⲧⲉⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲧⲱⲛ ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲙϥ.
18 He said, “Go into the city to a certain person, and tell him, ‘The Teacher says, “My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.”’”
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲛⲛⲁϩⲣⲛⲛⲓⲙ ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲥⲁϩ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲡⲁⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ϩⲱⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲓⲛⲁⲣⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ ϩⲁⲧⲏⲕ ⲙⲛⲛⲁⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
19 The disciples did as Jesus commanded them, and they prepared the Passover.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲛϭⲓⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲛⲧⲁϥϩⲱⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲩⲥⲟϥⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ.
20 Now when evening had come, he was reclining at the table with the twelve disciples.

21 As they were eating, he said, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”

22 They were exceedingly sorrowful, and each began to ask him, “It isn’t me, is it, Lord?”
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲗⲩⲡⲉⲓ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲁⲣⲭⲉⲓ ⲛϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲙⲏⲧⲉⲓ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ.
23 He answered, “He who dipped his hand with me in the dish will betray me.

24 The Son of Man goes even as it is written of him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born.”

25 Judas, who betrayed him, answered, “It isn’t me, is it, Rabbi?” He said to him, “You said it.”
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ ⲇⲉ ⲛϭⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲥ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲡⲁⲣⲁⲇⲓⲇⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲙⲏⲧⲉⲓ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲃⲃⲉⲓ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲕϫⲟⲟⲥ.
26 As they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks for it, and broke it. He gave to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.”
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϫⲓ ⲛϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓⲕ. ⲁϥⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁϥⲡⲟϣϥ. ⲁϥϯ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ϫⲓ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛⲟⲩⲱⲙ. ⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲥⲱⲙⲁ.
27 He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, “All of you drink it,

30 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
ⲗ̅ⲁⲩⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲡⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲧ.
31 Then Jesus said to them, “All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’

34 Jesus said to him, “Most certainly I tell you that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”

35 Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you.” All of the disciples also said likewise.

36 Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I go there and pray.”

37 He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and severely troubled.

38 Then Jesus said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with me.”

39 He went forward a little, fell on his face, and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire.”

40 He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “What, couldn’t you watch with me for one hour?

42 Again, a second time he went away and prayed, saying, “My Father, if this cup can’t pass away from me unless I drink it, your desire be done.”

43 He came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

44 He left them again, went away, and prayed a third time, saying the same words.

45 Then he came to his disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

47 While he was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and elders of the people.

53 Or do you think that I couldn’t ask my Father, and he would even now send me more than twelve legions of angels?

54 How then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that it must be so?”

55 In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, “Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and you didn’t arrest me.

56 But all this has happened that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled.

57 Those who had taken Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together.
ⲛ̅ⲍ̅ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ⲁⲩϫⲓ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϣⲁⲕⲁⲓⲫⲁⲥ ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲧⲁⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ ⲙⲛⲛⲉⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
58 But Peter followed him from a distance to the court of the high priest, and entered in and sat with the officers, to see the end.
ⲛ̅ⲏ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲏϩ ⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲉ ϣⲁⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲗⲏ ⲙⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ. ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲙⲛⲛϩⲩⲡⲏⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲑⲁⲏ.
59 Now the chief priests, the elders, and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus, that they might put him to death,
ⲛ̅ⲑ̅ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲛⲡⲥⲩⲛϩⲉⲇⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲛⲛⲉⲩϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲁⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉⲙⲟⲩⲟⲩⲧ ⲙⲙⲟϥ.
60 and they found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward
ⲝ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡⲟⲩϩⲉ ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ. ⲁϩⲁϩ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫ ⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ. ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲛϭⲓⲥⲛⲁⲩ.
61 and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.’”
ⲝ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲡⲁⲓ ϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛϣϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲉⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲉⲓⲣⲡⲉ ⲉⲕⲟⲧϥ ⲛϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲛϩⲟⲟⲩ.
62 The high priest stood up and said to him, “Have you no answer? What is this that these testify against you?”
ⲝ̅ⲃ̅ⲁϥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲛϭⲓⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲅⲛⲁϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁⲛ. ⲁϩⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲣⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ.
63 But Jesus stayed silent. The high priest answered him, “I adjure you by the living God that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.”
ⲝ̅ⲅ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲕⲱ ⲛⲣⲱϥ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛϭⲓⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ. ϫⲉ ϯⲧⲁⲣⲕⲟ ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲧⲟⲛϩ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲕⲉϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
64 Jesus said to him, “You have said so. Nevertheless, I tell you, after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of the sky.”
ⲝ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲕϫⲟⲟⲥ. ⲡⲗⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ ϫⲓⲛⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲟⲩⲛⲁⲙ ⲛⲧϭⲟⲙ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲓϫⲛⲛⲉⲕⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ ⲛⲧⲡⲉ.
65 Then the high priest tore his clothing, saying, “He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we need any more witnesses? Behold, now you have heard his blasphemy.
ⲝ̅ⲉ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲁϥⲡⲱϩ ⲛⲛⲉϥϩⲟⲓⲧⲉ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁϥϫⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲛⲧⲛⲣⲭⲣⲓⲁ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ϫⲓⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ. ⲉⲓⲥϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲁ.
66 What do you think?” They answered, “He is worthy of death!”

67 Then they spat in his face and beat him with their fists, and some slapped him,
ⲝ̅ⲍ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲛⲉϫⲡⲁϭⲥⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϩⲙⲡⲉϥϩⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϯⲕⲗⲯ ⲉϫⲱϥ. ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϯⲁⲁⲥ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉϩⲣⲁϥ
68 saying, “Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who hit you?”
ⲝ̅ⲏ̅ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲣⲁϩⲧⲕ.
69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the court, and a maid came to him, saying, “You were also with Jesus, the Galilean!”
ⲝ̅ⲑ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ϩⲓⲡⲥⲁ ⲙⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛⲧⲁⲩⲗⲏ. ⲁⲥϯⲡⲉⲥⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓⲟⲩϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲉⲥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ϩⲱⲱⲕ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲉⲕⲙⲛⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲟⲥ.
70 But he denied it before them all, saying, “I don’t know what you are talking about.”
ⲟ̅ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲛⲁ ⲙⲡⲉⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ.
71 When he had gone out onto the porch, someone else saw him and said to those who were there, “This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
ⲟ̅ⲁ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲑⲁⲉⲓⲧ ⲁⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓⲕⲉⲟⲩⲉⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲥ ⲛⲛⲉⲧϩⲙⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲙⲛⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲛⲁⲍⲱⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ.
72 Again he denied it with an oath, “I don’t know the man.”
ⲟ̅ⲃ̅ⲡⲁⲗⲓⲛ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲛⲁ ⲉϥⲣⲁⲛⲁϣ ϫⲉ ⲛϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ.
73 After a little while those who stood by came and said to Peter, “Surely you are also one of them, for your speech makes you known.”
ⲟ̅ⲅ̅ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲁⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲛϭⲓⲛⲉⲧⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲙⲉ ⲛⲧⲕⲟⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲱⲱⲕ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ. ⲕⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉⲕⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
74 Then he began to curse and to swear, “I don’t know the man!” Immediately the rooster crowed.
ⲟ̅ⲇ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲉⲓ ⲛⲱⲣⲕ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲕⲁⲉⲩⲱ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲛϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁⲡⲁⲗⲉⲕⲧⲱⲣ ⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
75 Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” Then he went out and wept bitterly.
ⲟ̅ⲉ̅ⲁϥⲣⲡⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲛϭⲓⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲙⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲟⲟϥ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲡⲁⲧⲉⲟⲩⲁⲗⲉⲕⲧⲱⲣ ⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲕⲛⲁⲁⲡⲁⲣⲛⲁ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲛϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲛⲥⲟⲡ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥⲣⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ.
