2 Corinthians 11
1 I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness, but indeed you do bear with me.
ⲁ̅ⲛⲁⲛⲟⲩⲥ ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲁⲛⲉⲭⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲓ ⲙⲙⲛⲧⲁⲑⲏⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁⲛⲉⲭⲉ
2 For I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy. For I married you to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Meshikha.
ⲃ̅ϯⲕⲱϩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲱϩ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲁⲓⲥⲃⲧⲱⲧ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲡⲁⲣϩⲓⲥⲧⲁ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲑⲉⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲛⲟⲩϩⲁⲓ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ
3 But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Khawa in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the sincerity and purity that is in the Meshikha.

4 For if he who comes preaches another Yeshua, whom we did not preach, or if you receive a different spirit, which you did not receive, or a different "good news", which you did not accept, you put up with that well enough.

5 For I reckon that I am not at all behind the very best apostles.

6 Even though I am unskilled in speech, I am not unskilled in knowledge. But in every way we have made this known to you in all things.

7 Or did I commit a sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached to you God's Good News free of charge?

8 I robbed other congregations, taking wages from them that I might serve you.

9 When I was present with you and was in need, I was not a burden on anyone, for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, supplied the measure of my need. In everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and I will continue to do so.

10 As the truth of Meshikha is in me, no one will stop me from this boasting in the regions of Achaia.

11 Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ϯⲙⲉ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ
12 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them that desire an occasion, that in which they boast, they may be found even as we.

13 For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as Meshikha's apostles.

14 And no wonder, for even Satana masquerades as an angel of light.

15 It is no great thing therefore if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

16 I say again, let no one think me foolish. But if so, yet receive me as foolish, that I also may boast a little.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ϯⲛⲁϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲟⲛ ⲙⲡⲣⲧⲣⲉ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲅ ⲟⲩⲁⲑⲏⲧ ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲕⲁⲛ ϣⲟⲡⲧ ⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ ϩⲱⲥ ⲁⲑⲏⲧ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲓⲉϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲛⲟⲩϣⲏⲙ
17 That which I speak, I do not speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this confidence of boasting.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲡⲉϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲉⲓϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲱⲥ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲛⲧⲁⲑⲏⲧ ϩⲙ ⲡⲧⲁϫⲣⲟ ⲙⲡϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ
18 Seeing that many boast after the flesh, I will also boast.

19 For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.

20 For you put up with it if someone makes slaves of you, if someone exploits you, if someone takes advantage of you, if someone exalts himself, if someone strikes you on the face.

21 I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet however any is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.

23 Are they servants of Meshikha? (I speak as one beside himself) I am more so; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths often.

26 I have been in travels often, perils of rivers, perils of robbers, perils from my countrymen, perils from those who are not Jews, perils in the city, perils in the wilderness, perils in the sea, perils among false brothers;
