Ephesians 6
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
ⲁ̅ⲛⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲓⲟϯ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡ⳪ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲟⲩϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏⲓ ⲡⲉ.
2 “Honour your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with a promise:
ⲃ̅ⲙⲁⲧⲁⲓ⳿ⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲓⲱⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲧⲉⲕⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ϯⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩⲓϯ ⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲱϣ.
3 “that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.”

4 You fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
ⲇ̅ⲛⲓⲓⲟϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣϯϫⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϣⲁⲛⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲕⲁϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡ⳪.
5 Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Messiah,
ⲉ̅ⲛⲓⲉⲃⲓⲁⲓⲕ ⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲓⲥⲉⲩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϩⲟϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲑⲉⲣⲧⲉⲣ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲁⲡⲗⲟⲩⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ ϩⲱⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ Ⲡ⳪.
6 not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers, but as servants of Messiah, doing the will of God from the heart,
ⲋ̅ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲃⲁⲗ ⳿ⲙⲃⲱⲕ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲣⲉϥⲣⲁⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲉⲃⲓⲁⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲉϩⲛⲉ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲯⲩⲭⲏ.
7 with good will doing service as to the Lord and not to men,

8 knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same good again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.

9 You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with him.
ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϧⲁ ⲛⲓϭⲓⲥⲉⲩ ⲁⲣⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲭⲱ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϫⲱⲛⲧ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳪ ϣⲟⲡ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲫⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ϫⲟⲩϣⲧ ⳿ⲉϩⲟ ⲛⲁϩⲣⲁϥ.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.
ⲓ̅⳿ⲡⲥⲉⲡⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ϫⲉⲙⲛⲟⲙϯ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡ⳪ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲁⲙⲁϩⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲧⲉϥϫⲟⲙ.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲙⲟⲓ ϩⲓ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϧⲱⲕ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ϣϫⲉⲙϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲛⲓⲕⲟⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲇⲓ⳿ⲁⲃⲟⲗⲟⲥ.
12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. (aiōn g165)
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲉⲛϯ ϣⲟⲡ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲥⲁⲣⲝ ϩⲓ ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲛⲓⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲛⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲕⲣⲁⲧⲱⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲛⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁ ⲛⲓⲫⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ. (aiōn g165)
13 Therefore put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲑⲃⲉⲫⲁⲓ ϭⲓ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϧⲱⲕ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ϣϫⲉⲙϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ.
14 Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

16 above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;

18 with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the holy ones.
