John 19
1 Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged.
ⲁ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲡⲉ͡ⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲁϥϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲙⲁⲥⲧⲓⲅⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ.
2 Soldiers made a crown of thorns and placed it on his head, and put a purple robe on him.

3 Time and again they went up to him and said, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and slapped him.

4 Pilate went outside once more and said to them, “I'm bringing him out here to you so you'll know I find him not guilty of any crime.”
ⲇ̅ⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲟⲛ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϣⲁⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ⲁⲛⲛ̅ⲧϥ̅ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ϯϭⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲁⲓⲧⲓⲁ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅.
5 Then Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. “Look, here's the man,” said Pilate.

6 When the chief priests and the guards saw Jesus, they shouted out, “Crucify him! Crucify him!” “You take him and crucify him,” Pilate answered. “I find him not guilty.”

7 The Jewish leaders replied, “We have a law, and according to that law he must die because he claimed to be the Son of God.”
ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲛⲟⲩⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲉⲛⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ϣ̑ϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲙⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
8 When Pilate heard this he was more afraid than ever,
ⲏ̅ⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲡⲉⲉ͡ⲓϣⲁϫⲉ. ⲁϥⲣ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ.
9 and he went back into the governor's palace. He asked Jesus, “Where do you come from?” But Jesus didn't respond.
ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲟⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲡⲣⲁⲓⲧⲱⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲧⲱⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ. ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡϥ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁϥ.
10 “Are you refusing to talk to me?” Pilate said to him. “Don't you realize that I have the power to have you released or to crucify you?”
ⲓ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ϭⲉ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲅ̅ⲛⲁϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲛ. ⲛⲅ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛϯⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲥxⲟ̅ⲩ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲕ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ϯⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
11 “You would have no power over me unless it had been given to you from above,” Jesus answered. “Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of the greater sin.”
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲙⲛⲧⲕⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲉ͡ⲓ. ⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲏⲧⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁⲥ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲉ. ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲁⲁⲧ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧⲕ̅. ⲟⲩⲛⲧϥ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ.
12 When Pilate heard this he tried to set Jesus free, but the Jewish leaders shouted, “If you set this man free you're not Caesar's friend. Anyone who sets himself up as a king is rebelling against Caesar.”
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲩⲁϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲕϣⲁⲛⲕⲁⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕ̅ⲡⲉϣⲃⲏⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ. ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉϯⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲉϥϯⲟⲩⲃⲉⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ.
13 When Pilate heard this, he brought Jesus outside and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called Stone Pavement (Gabbatha in Hebrew).
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲛⲉⲉ͡ⲓϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲑⲙ̅ⲥⲟϥ ⲉⲡⲃⲏⲙⲁ ⲟⲩⲙⲁ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲗⲓⲑⲟⲥⲧⲣⲱⲧⲟⲛ. ⲙ̅ⲙⲛⲧ̅ϩⲉⲃⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲅⲁⲃⲃⲁⲑⲁ.
14 It was around noon on the preparation day before the Passover. “Look, here is your king,” he said to the Jews.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϫⲡ̅ⲥⲟⲟ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲧ̅ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲥⲕⲉⲩⲏ ⲙⲡ̅ⲡⲁⲥⲭⲁ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲟ.
15 “Kill him! Kill him! Crucify him!” they screamed out. “Do you want me to crucify your king?” Pilate asked. “The only king we have is Caesar,” the chief priests replied.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲩⲁϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ϫⲉ ϥⲓⲧϥ̅ ϥⲓⲧϥ̅ ⲥxⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ. ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲥxⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲟ. ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲛ̅ⲕⲉⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲏⲧⲓ ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲕⲁⲓⲥⲁⲣ.
16 So he handed Jesus over to them to be crucified.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ϭⲉ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲥxⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲩⲛ̅ⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ
17 They led Jesus away, who carried his own cross, and went out to the “Place of the Skull,” (Golgotha in Hebrew).
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥϥⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲥxⲟⲥ. ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲩⲙⲁ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲣⲁⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧϩⲉⲃⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲅⲟⲗⲅⲟⲑ
18 They crucified him there, and two others with him: one on either side, with Jesus between them.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥxⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲕⲉⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲡⲓⲥⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲙⲏⲧⲉ.
19 Pilate had a notice made and placed on the cross which said, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.”
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲧⲓⲧⲗⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲧⲟϭϥ̅ ⲉⲡⲉⲥxⲟⲥ. ⲛⲉϥⲥⲏϩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲛⲁⲍⲱⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈.
20 Many people read the notice because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
ⲕ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲧⲓⲧⲗⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲁϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲟϣϥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥϩⲏⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥxⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥⲥⲏϩ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧϩⲉⲃⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ. ⲙ̅ⲙⲛⲧ̅ϩⲣⲱⲙⲁⲓⲟⲥ. ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲛⲓⲛ.
21 Then the chief priests came to Pilate and asked him, “Don't write ‘the King of the Jews,’ but ‘This man said I am the King of the Jews.’”
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ϭⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲥⲁϩϥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϫⲉ ⲡⲏⲏ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈.
22 Pilate replied, “What I have written I have written.”
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲥⲁϩϥ ⲁⲓ̈ⲥⲁϩϥ.
23 When the soldiers had crucified Jesus they took his clothes and divided them in four so that each soldier had his share. There was also his robe, made without seams, woven in one piece.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥxⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ. ⲁⲩϫⲓⲡⲉϥϩⲟⲓ̈ⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϥⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲧⲟⲓ̈. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲕⲉϣⲧⲏⲛ. ⲧⲉϣⲧⲏⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲥⲧⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲁⲛ ⲉϫⲱⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉⲩⲥⲁϩϥⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲧⲉ.
24 So they said to each other, “Let's not tear it, but let's decide who will have it by rolling dice.” This fulfilled the Scripture that says, “They divided my garments among them and rolled dice for my clothing.”
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲧⲣⲉⲛⲡⲁϩⲥ̅. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲁⲣⲛ̅ⲉⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲥⲛⲁⲣ̅ⲧⲁⲛⲓⲙ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲡⲉϣⲛⲁϩⲟⲓ̈ⲧⲉ ⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲛⲉϫⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲥ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲧⲁϩⲃ̅ⲥⲱ. ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈.
25 So that is what the soldiers did. Standing near the cross was Jesus' mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary Magdalene.
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲁϩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲥxⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲥⲱⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲧϣⲉⲉⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲕⲗⲱⲡⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲧⲙⲁⲅⲇⲁⲗⲏⲛⲏ.
26 When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, “Mother, this is your son.”
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉϥⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉϥⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ. ⲉⲓⲥⲡⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲉ.
27 Then he said to the disciple, “This is your mother.” From then on the disciple took her into his home.
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲉ͡ⲓⲧⲁ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲥⲧⲉⲕⲙⲁⲁⲩ. ϫⲓⲛⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲡⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲓⲧⲥ̅ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲏⲉ͡ⲓ.
28 Jesus now realized that he had finished all that he had come to do. In fulfillment of Scripture, he said, “I'm thirsty.”
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲁϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ ϫⲱⲕ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϯⲟⲃⲉ.
29 A jar of wine vinegar was standing there, so they soaked a sponge in the vinegar, put it on a hyssop stick, and held it to his lips.
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲛⲁⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲕⲏ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉϥⲙⲉϩ ⲛ̅ϩⲙ̅ϫ. ⲟⲩⲥⲡⲟⲅⲅⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲙⲉϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϩⲙϫ ⲁⲩⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲩⲥⲥⲱⲡⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲥⲟⲟⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲉϥⲧⲁⲡⲣⲟ.
30 After he'd had the vinegar, Jesus said, “It's finished!” Then he bowed his head and breathed his last.
ⲗ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϫⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲡ̅ϩⲙϫ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲩϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲣⲓⲕⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϥⲁⲡⲉ ⲁϥϯ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡⲛ̅ⲁ.
31 It was preparation day, and the Jewish leaders didn't want to leave the bodies on the crosses during the Sabbath day (in fact this was a special Sabbath), so they asked Pilate to break the legs, so that the bodies could be removed.
ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲡⲁⲣⲁⲥⲕⲉⲩⲏ ⲧⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲛⲥⲱⲙⲁ ϭⲱ ϩⲓⲡⲉⲥxⲟ̅ⲥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ. ⲛⲉⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡ̅ⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲟⲛ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ. ⲁⲩⲥⲉⲡⲥ̅ⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉⲟⲩⲱϭⲡ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϥⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ.
32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first one and then the other of those crucified with Jesus,
ⲗ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲉϭⲡⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲛⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥxⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ.
33 but when they came to Jesus they saw he was already dead, so they didn't break his legs.
ⲗ̅ⲅ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉϫⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲁϥⲟⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲩ. ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲟⲩⲉϭⲡⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ.
34 However, one of the soldiers stuck a spear into his side, and blood mixed with water came out.
ⲗ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲁϥⲕⲱⲛⲥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲥⲡⲓⲣ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲗⲟⲅⲭⲏ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲟⲩⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩ.
35 The one who saw this has given this evidence, and his evidence is true. He's certain that what he says is true so you can believe it too.
ⲗ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲁϥⲣ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲙⲉ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲉϥⲙⲛⲧ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲣⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉϥϫⲉⲙⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ.
36 It happened like this so Scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken,”
ⲗ̅ⲋ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲅⲁⲣ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲕⲁⲥ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲟⲩⲱϣϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅.
37 and as another Scripture says, “They will look at the one they pierced.”
ⲗ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ⲧⲉⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲕⲟⲛⲥϥ̅.
38 After this Joseph of Arimathea asked Pilate if he could take down the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave his permission. Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but in secret because he feared the Jews. So Joseph came and took the body away.
ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲁϥⲥⲉⲡⲥ̅ⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̈ⲱⲥⲏⲫ ⲡⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲁⲣⲓⲙⲁⲑⲁⲓⲁ ⲉⲩⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉϥϩⲏⲡ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲑⲟⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉϥⲓⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ. ⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϥⲓⲡⲉϥⲥⲱⲙⲁ.
39 He was joined by Nicodemus, the man who had first visited Jesus at night. He brought with him a mixture of myrrh and aloes weighing about seventy-five pounds.
ⲗ̅ⲑ̅ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲇⲉ ϩⲱⲱϥ ⲟⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲓⲕⲟⲇⲏⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ϣⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩϣⲏ ⲁϥⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲓⲅⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ϣⲁⲗ ϩⲓⲁⲗⲗⲱⲓ̈ ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲣ̅ϣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲗⲓⲧⲣⲁ.
40 They took Jesus' body and wrapped it in linen cloth together with the mixture of spices, in accordance with Jewish burial customs. There was a garden near where Jesus was crucified;
ⲙ̅ⲁⲩϫⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲣϥ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϩⲃⲱⲱⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲛⲉ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲡⲥⲱⲛⲧ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲕⲟⲟⲥⲟⲩ.
41 and in the garden was a new, unused tomb.

42 Since it was the Jewish day of preparation and the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus to rest there.
