< Romans 5 >

1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, let us be at peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Christ.
ⲁ̅ⲉⲁⲛⲧⲙⲁⲉⲓⲟ ϭⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ. ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲓ̈ⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
2 For through him we also have access by faith to this grace, in which we stand firm, and to glory, in the hope of the glory of the sons of God.
ⲃ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲛϫⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲱⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲉⲓϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲛϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲑⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
3 And not only that, but we also find glory in tribulation, knowing that tribulation exercises patience,
ⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲟⲛⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲛⲣ̅ⲡⲕⲉϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲑⲗⲓⲯⲓⲥ. ⲉⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲑⲗⲓⲯⲓⲥ ⲉⲥⲣ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲉⲩϩⲩⲡⲟⲙⲟⲛⲏ.
4 and patience leads to proving, yet truly proving leads to hope,
ⲇ̅ⲑⲩⲡⲟⲙⲟⲛⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲏ. ⲧⲇⲟⲕⲓⲙⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ.
5 but hope is not unfounded, because the love of God is poured forth in our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
ⲉ̅ⲑⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲉⲥϫⲓϣⲓⲡⲉ. ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲁϩⲧ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲛ.
6 Yet why did Christ, while we were still infirm, at the proper time, suffer death for the impious?
ⲋ̅ⲉϣϫⲉⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲧⲉⲓ ⲉⲛⲟ ⲛ̅ϭⲱⲃ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲓⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ϣ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲛⲁⲥⲉⲃⲏⲥ.
7 Now someone might barely be willing to die for the sake of justice, for example, perhaps someone might dare to die for the sake of a good man.
ⲍ̅ⲙⲟⲅⲓⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲟⲩⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ. ⲙⲉϣⲁⲕ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲧⲟⲗⲙⲁ ⲉⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲟⲩⲁⲅⲁⲑⲟⲥ.
8 But God demonstrates his love for us in that, while we were yet sinners, at the proper time,
ⲏ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲥⲩⲛϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲓ ⲉⲛⲟ ⲛ̅ⲣⲉϥⲣ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲁⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲛ.
9 Christ died for us. Therefore, having been justified now by his blood, all the more so shall we be saved from wrath through him.
ⲑ̅ⲛⲁϣⲱⲥ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲁⲛⲧⲙⲁⲉⲓⲟ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲧⲟⲣⲅⲏ.
10 For if we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, while we were still enemies, all the more so, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.
ⲓ̅ⲉϣϫⲉⲉⲛⲟ ⲛ̅ϫⲁϫⲉ ⲁⲛϩⲱⲧⲡ̅ ⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲉ. ⲛⲁϣⲱⲥ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲁⲛϩⲱⲧⲡ̅ ⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲱⲛϩ̅.
11 And not only that, but we also glory in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲟⲛⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲛⲣ̅ⲡⲕⲉϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲓ̈ⲥ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲛϫⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲱⲧⲡ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅·
12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into this world, and through sin, death; so also death was transferred to all men, to all who have sinned.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲡⲙⲟⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲁⲩⲣ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϩⲓⲱⲱϥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲟⲛ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲡⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
13 For even before the law, sin was in the world, but sin was not imputed while the law did not exist.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ϣⲁⲡⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲩⲱⲡ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ.
14 Yet death reigned from Adam until Moses, even in those who have not sinned, in the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a figure of him who was to come.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲡⲙⲟⲩ ⲣ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ϫⲓⲛⲁⲇⲁⲙ ϣⲁⲙⲱⲩ̈ⲥⲏⲥ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲣ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲁⲇⲁⲙ ⲉⲧⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲧⲩⲡⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ.
15 But the gift is not entirely like the offense. For though by the offense of one, many died, yet much more so, by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, has the grace and gift of God abounded to many.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲡⲁⲣⲁⲡⲧⲱⲙⲁ ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ. ⲉϣϫⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲡⲁⲣⲁⲡⲧⲱⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲁϩⲁϩ ⲙⲟⲩ. ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ϭⲉ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲇⲱⲣⲉⲁ ϩⲛⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲥⲁϣⲁⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉϩⲁϩ.
16 And the sin through one is not entirely like the gift. For certainly, the judgment of one was unto condemnation, but the grace toward many offenses is unto justification.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲁⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲣ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲙⲁⲉⲓⲟ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲡϩⲁⲡ ⲅⲁⲣ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁ ⲉⲩⲧϭⲁⲉⲓⲟ. ⲡⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲩⲧⲙⲁⲓ̈ⲟ.
17 For though, by the one offense, death reigned through one, yet so much more so shall those who receive an abundance of grace, both of the gift and of justice, reign in life through the one Jesus Christ.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲉϣϫⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲁⲡⲙⲟⲩ ⲣ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁ. ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ϭⲉ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲧϫⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩ(ⲛⲏ) ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲣ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲱⲛϩ̅ ϩⲓⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅·
18 Therefore, just as through the offense of one, all men fell under condemnation, so also through the justice of one, all men fall under justification unto life.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲣⲁ ϭⲉ ⲡ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲡⲧⲱⲙⲁ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲩⲧϭⲁⲉⲓⲟ. ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲟⲛ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲙⲁⲓ̈ⲟ ⲉⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲩⲧⲙⲁⲉⲓⲟ ⲛ̅ⲱⲛϩ̅.
19 For, just as through the disobedience of one man, many were established as sinners, so also through the obedience of one man, many shall be established as just.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲧⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲣⲉϥⲣ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ. ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲟⲛ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲥⲧⲙⲏⲧ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲉϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ.
20 Now the law entered in such a way that offenses would abound. But where offenses were abundant, grace was superabundant.
ⲕ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲡⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲡ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲡⲧⲱⲙⲁ ⲣ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡⲉϥⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲁϣⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲡⲉϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲣ̅ϩⲟⲩⲉⲁϣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲁϥ.
21 So then, just as sin has reigned unto death, so also may grace reign through justice unto eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
