English: Because there is no contradiction made on the part of those who do evil quickly, therefore the heart of the children of men is fully determined in them to do evil.
Coptic: πενταfρ νοβε αfειρε μππονηρον jιννsορπ αυω sατευhαη αυω tσοουν ανοκ jεουναγαθον ναsωπε ννετο νhοτε hητf μπνουτε jεκασ ευρ hοτε hατεfhιη
English: He that has sinned has done evil from that time, and long from beforehand: nevertheless I know, that it is well with them that fear God, that they may fear before him:
Coptic: μναγαθον δε ναsωπε μπασεβησ αυω νfταsε νεfhοου αν hατhαιβεσ νcιπετενfο νhατ αν hητf μπνουτε
English: but it shall not be well with the ungodly, and he shall not prolong his days, which are as a shadow; forasmuch as he fears not before God.
Coptic: ουν ουπετsουειτ εαυαασ εβολ hμπκαh jεουνhενδικαιοσ ναι εfναταhοου νcιπhωβ μπασεβησ αυω ουν hενασεβησ hωου εfναταhοου νcιπhωβ ννδικαιοσ αυω αιjοοσ jεπεικε ουπετsουειτ πε
English: There is a vanity which is done upon the earth; that there are righteous persons to whom it happens according to the doing of the ungodly; and there are ungodly men, to whom it happens according to the doing of the just: I said, This is also vanity.
Coptic: αυω ανοκ αιτμαειε πνουβ αυω μναγαθον sοοπ μπρωμε hαροf μπρη νσαουωμ hισω hιευφρανε επαι πετναsωπε ναf hμπεfhισε hννεhοου μπεfωνh ναι νταπνουτε τααυ ναf hαροf μπρη
English: Then I praised mirth, because there is no good for a man under the sun, but to eat, and drink, and be merry: and this shall attend him in his labour all the days of his life, which God has given him under the sun.
Coptic: hνναι αιt μπαhητ ετσοφια αυω εναυ εππερισπασμοσ νταfsωπε hιjμπκαh jεhμπεhοου αυω hντκεουsη ενfναναυ αν εhινηβ hννεfβαλ
English: Whereupon I set my heart to know wisdom, and to perceive the trouble that was wrought upon the earth: for there is that neither by day nor night sees sleep with his eyes.
Coptic: αυω αιναυ ενταμιο τηρου μπνουτε αυω μπρωμε ναshε αν επταμιο νταfsωπε hαροf μπρη ερsανπρωμε hαστf εfsινε νfναcινε αν αυω νετερεπσοφοσ ναjοου εσουωνου νfναshε εροου αν jεπαι τηρf αιτααf εhραι επαhητ αυω απαhητ ναυ επαι τηρf
English: And I beheld all the works of God, that a man shall not be able to discover the work which is wrought under the sun; whatsoever things a man shall endeavour to seek, however a man may labour to seek it, yet he shall not find it; yea, how much soever a wise man may speak of knowing it, he shall not be able to find it: for I applied all this to my heart, and my heart has seen all this.
Coptic: ντhε ετερενδικαιοσ αυω νκεσοφοσ μννευhβηυε hννcιj μπνουτε αυω ουαγαπη μνουμοστε ευhν ουον νιμ μπρωμε σοουν αν μμοου hωβ νιμ ετμπευμτο εβολ ουπετsουειτ πε
English: I saw that the righteous, and the wise, and their works, are in the hand of God: yea, there is no man that knows either love or hatred, though all are before their face.
Coptic: ουτωμντ νουωτ πετναταhε πδικαιοσ μνπασεβησ πεττββηυ αυω πετjαhμ παγαθοσ αυω πετhοου αυω πετρα θυσια μνπετενfειρε αν κατατhε μπαγαθοσ ται τε τhε μπρεfρνοβε ντhε μπετρωκh ται τε τhε μπετρ hοτε hητf μπαναs
English: Vanity is in all: there is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked; to the good, and to the bad; both to the pure, and to the impure; both to him that sacrifices, and to him that sacrifice not: as is the good, so is the sinner: as is the swearer, even so is he that fears an oath.
Coptic: παι ουπονηρον πε εfsοοπ hνhωβ νιμ hαροf μπρη jεουτωμντ νουωτ πετναταhε ουον νιμ αυω πhητ ννsηρε ννρωμε αfμουh μπονηρον αυω ουsεει πετsοοπ hμπευhητ hμπευωνh jεευναβωκ ερατου ννετμοουτ ετhι παhου μμοου
English: There is this evil in all that is done under the sun, that there is one event to all: yea, the heart of the sons of men is filled with evil, and madness is in their heart during their life, and after that they go to the dead.
Coptic: jενιμ πετνακοινωνι μννετονh τηρου ουν hελπισ sοοπ ννετονh jεπευhορ ετονh νανουf εhουε πμουι ετμοουτ
English: for who is he that has fellowship with all the living? there is hope of him: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
