< Romans 1 >

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God,
ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲡϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲁⲡⲟⲥⲧⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲧⲁϩⲙ̅ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲡⲟⲣϫϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
2 which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,

4 who was declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,
ⲇ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲟϣϥ̅ ⲛ̅ϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲃ̅ⲃⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ.
5 through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations for his name’s sake;

6 among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;

7 to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
ⲍ̅ⲛⲉⲧϩⲛ̅ϩⲣⲱⲙⲏ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉⲣⲓⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲧⲁϩⲙ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ϯⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲉⲓⲱⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅·
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
ⲏ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲙⲉⲛ ϯϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉϯⲥⲟⲉⲓⲧ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅·
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,
ⲑ̅ⲡⲁⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϯϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲁϫⲛ̅ⲱϫⲛ̅ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ
10 requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.
ⲓ̅ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲁϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲉⲓ̈ⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲁϩⲓⲏ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ϯⲟⲩⲉϣⲛⲁⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉϯ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲧⲁϫⲣⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅.
12 that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲛⲥⲗ̅ⲥⲗ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲉⲧϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲓ̈·
13 Now I don’t desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you (and was hindered so far), that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓ̈ⲕⲁⲁⲥ ϩⲁⲉⲓⲁⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲡ ⲉⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲕⲱⲗⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ϣⲁⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉϫⲡⲟ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲉϣⲱϫⲡ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ.
14 I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲗⲗⲏⲛ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲃⲁⲣⲃⲁⲣⲟⲥ. ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲫⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲑⲏⲧ ⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈.
15 So as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲣⲟⲧ ⲉⲧⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲍⲉ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲛⲉⲧϩⲛ̅ϩⲣⲱⲙⲏ·
16 For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲛ̅ϯϯϣⲓⲡⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ. ⲟⲩϭⲟⲙ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲛⲓⲛ.
17 For in it is revealed God’s righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁϭⲱⲗⲡ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲉⲩⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ. ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉⲧⲥⲏϩ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲧⲟⲣⲅⲏ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛⲁϭⲱⲗⲡ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲉ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧϣⲁϥⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡϫⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲟⲛⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϫⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲟⲛⲥ̅
19 because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϫⲉ ⲡⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ. ⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
20 For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. (aïdios g126)
ⲕ̅ⲛⲉϥⲡⲉⲑⲏⲡ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲑⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲱⲛⲧ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ. ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲧⲁⲙⲓⲟ ⲉⲩⲛⲟⲓ̈ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉϥϭⲟⲙ ⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ϣⲁⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲉϫⲱ. (aïdios g126)
21 Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩϯⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϩⲱⲥ ⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲩⲣⲡⲉⲧϣⲟⲩⲉⲓⲧ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲡⲉⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲛ̅ⲁⲧⲥⲃⲱ ⲣ̅ⲕⲁⲕⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛϩⲉⲛⲥⲁⲃⲉ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ⲥⲟϭ.
23 and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, four-footed animals, and creeping things.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩϣⲓⲃⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲁⲧⲧⲁⲕⲟ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲓⲕⲱⲛ ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉϣⲁϥⲧⲁⲕⲟ ϩⲓϩⲁⲗⲏⲧ ϩⲓⲧⲃ̅ⲛⲏ. ϩⲓϫⲁⲧϥⲉ·
24 Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves;
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲁⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲩⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲥⲱϣ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲥⲱⲙⲁ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ.
25 who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϣⲓⲃⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϭⲟⲗ. ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲧ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲱⲛⲧ̅ ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲥⲱⲛⲧ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲥⲙⲁⲙⲁⲁⲧ ϣⲁⲛⲓⲉⲛⲉϩ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ· (aiōn g165)
26 For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.

27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ϩⲟⲙⲟⲓⲱⲥ ⲛⲉⲩⲕⲉϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲩⲕⲱ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲱⲃ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲫⲩⲥⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩϩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲙⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ. ϩⲉⲛϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϩⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲉⲩⲣ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲧⲁⲥⲭⲩⲙⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧϣⲃ̅ⲉⲓⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲃⲉⲕⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲡⲗⲁⲛⲏ ⲉⲧⲉϣϣⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ.
28 Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

32 who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.
