Mark 8
1 Around this time there was another large crowd that had nothing to eat. Jesus called the disciples together and told them,
ⲁ̅ϩⲛⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲙⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁⲟⲩⲟⲙϥ̅ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ
2 “I feel for the crowd because they have already stayed with me for three days and they have nothing to eat.

3 If I send them home without food, they'll faint on the way. Some have come from a long way away.”
ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁⲛⲕⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲙⲡⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲥⲱϣⲙ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲉⲩⲛ̅ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲉ.
4 “Where could anybody find enough bread to feed them here in this wilderness?” answered his disciples.
ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲧⲥⲓⲉⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲟⲉⲓⲕ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲙⲁ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ̈ⲉ.
5 “How many loaves do you have?” he asked. “Seven,” they replied.
ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϫⲛⲟⲩⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲧⲏⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲏⲣ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲉⲓⲕ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲥⲁϣϥ.
6 He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then he took the seven loaves of bread, and gave thanks. He broke the bread and handed the pieces to his disciples to give to the crowd.
ⲋ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϩⲱⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲛⲟϫⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⲁϥϫⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲁϣϥ ⲛ̅ⲟⲉⲓⲕ ⲁϥϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲡⲟϣⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲉⲕⲁⲁⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲕⲁⲁⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲱϥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ
7 They had a few fish as well, so having blessed them, he said, “Take these and share them too.”
ⲍ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩϩⲉⲛⲕⲉϣⲏⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲃⲧ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲥⲙⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲉⲕⲁⲛⲉⲉⲓⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ.
8 They ate until they were full, and then collected up seven baskets of leftovers.
ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲓ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϥⲓ ⲛ̅ⲗ̅ⲗⲁⲕⲙ̅. ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲣ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲣ̅ⲥⲁϣϥ ⲃ̅ⲃⲓⲣ
9 There were four thousand people there. After sending them on their way,
ⲑ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲁⲣ̅ϩⲙⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϣⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲕⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ·
10 Jesus climbed into a boat with his disciples and went to the region of Dalmanutha.
ⲓ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲁⲗⲉ ⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛ̅ⲇⲁⲗⲙⲁⲛⲟⲩⲑⲁ.
11 The Pharisees arrived and began to argue with him, wanting him to give them a miraculous sign from heaven, trying to get him to prove himself.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲁⲣⲭⲉⲓ ⲉϯⲧⲱⲛ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ ⲉⲩⲕⲱⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲟⲩⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲉ ⲉⲩⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ.
12 Jesus sighed deeply, and asked, “Why do you people want a sign? I tell you the truth: I will not give you a sign.”
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲁϣⲁϩⲟⲙ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲉ͡ⲓⲅⲉⲛⲉⲁ ⲕⲱⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲟⲩⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϯⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲅⲉⲛⲉⲁ.
13 So he left them behind, climbed into the boat, and went back across the lake.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲗⲟ ϩⲁⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲗⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲣⲟ
14 But the disciples had forgotten to bring bread with them. All they had in the boat was one loaf.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ⲡⲱⲃϣ̅ ⲛ̅ϫⲓⲟⲉⲓⲕ ⲛⲁⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲙⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲥⲁⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓⲕ ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ
15 “Watch out—beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and of Herod!” he warned them.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϩⲱⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϭⲱϣⲧ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϯϩⲧⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲡⲉⲑⲁⲃ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲑⲁⲃ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲣⲱⲇⲏⲥ
16 “He's saying that because we don't have any bread,” they concluded.

17 Jesus knew what they were saying, and said, “Why are you talking about not having any bread? Are you still not thinking and not understanding? Have you closed your minds?

19 Don't you remember when I shared five loaves among five thousand? How many basketfuls of leftovers did you pick up?” “Twelve,” they replied.

20 “And the seven loaves divided among four thousand. How many basketfuls of leftovers did you pick up?” “Seven,” they answered.
ⲕ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲓⲡⲱϣ ⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲁϣϥ ⲛ̅ⲟⲉⲓⲕ ⲉⲡⲉϩⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ϣⲉ ⲣ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϥⲓⲟⲩⲏⲣ ⲃ̅ⲃⲓⲣ ⲉⲩⲙⲉϩ ⲗ̅ⲗⲁⲕⲙ̅. ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲁϣϥ.
21 “Do you still not understand?” he asked them.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲱⲥ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲉⲓⲉ ⲁⲛ·
22 They went to Bethsaida where some people brought a blind man to Jesus. They begged Jesus to touch him and heal him.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲃⲏⲇⲥⲁⲓ̈ⲇⲁⲛ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲃⲗ̅ⲗⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲉⲡⲥⲱⲡϥ̅ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉϫⲱϩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ
23 Jesus took the blind man by the hand and took him outside the village. Jesus spat on the man's eyes and touched him with his hands. Then Jesus asked him, “Can you see anything?”
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲃⲗ̅ⲗⲉ. ⲁϥⲛ̅ⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕⲱⲙⲏ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲛⲉϫⲡⲁϭⲥⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⲁϥⲕⲁⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ϩⲓϫⲱϥ ⲁϥϫⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲕⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲟⲩ.
24 The man looked around, and said, “I can see people, but they look like trees walking.”
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϥⲓⲓ̈ⲁⲧϥ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϣⲏⲛ.
25 So Jesus touched the man's eyes again. He could see properly—he was cured and his sight was clear.
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲡⲁⲗⲓⲛ ⲁϥⲕⲁⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ϩⲓϫⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲥⲱⲧϥ̅ ⲁϥⲉⲓⲱⲣϩ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲛⲕⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲕⲁⲗⲱⲥ.
26 Jesus sent the man home, and told him, “Don't go back through the village.”

27 Jesus and his disciples left to go to the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do people say I am?”
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲛⲕⲱⲙⲏ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕⲉⲥⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲫⲓⲗⲓⲡⲡⲟⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲁϥϫⲛⲟⲩⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲣ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲉⲣⲟⲉⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲅⲛⲓⲙ.
28 “Some say John the Baptist, some say Elijah, others say one of the prophets,” they replied.
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ϫⲉ ⲓ̈ⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲧⲏⲥ. ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ϫⲉ ϩⲏⲗⲉⲓⲁⲥ ⲡⲉ. ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
29 “But who do you say I am?” he asked them. “You are the Messiah!” Peter answered.
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϫⲛⲟⲩⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲉⲣⲟⲉⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲅⲛⲓⲙ. ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅
30 Jesus warned them not to tell anybody about him.

31 Then Jesus began to explain to them that the Son of man would suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and religious teachers. He would be killed, but three days later would rise again.
ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲩⲛⲉⲓ̈ⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉϥⲛⲁϫⲡⲓϣⲉⲡϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ϩⲓⲥⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲥⲧⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ. ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁϣⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛϥ̅ⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ.
32 Jesus explained this to them very clearly. But Peter took Jesus aside and started to reprimand him for what he said.

33 Jesus turned around and looking at his disciples, reprimanded Peter. “Get away from me, Satan,” he said. “You're not thinking as God thinks, but as human beings do.”
ⲗ̅ⲅ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲕⲧⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲁϥⲉⲡⲓⲧⲓⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲣⲟⲥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲡⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲛⲅ̅ⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲛⲁⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ.
34 Jesus called the crowd and his disciples over to him, and told them, “If you want to follow me, you must give up on yourselves, pick up your cross and follow me.
