English: But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, 'Why did you make me like this?'
Coptic: ημντη πκεραμευσ τεξουσια εταμιο εβολ hμπιομε νουωτ νουhνααυ ευταειο . κεουα δε ευσωs .
English: Or hasn't the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor?
Coptic: εsjε πνουτε δε εfουωs εουωνh εβολ ντεfοργη . αυω εταμον ετεfcομ . αfεινε hνουνοc μμντhαρshητ νhενσκευη νοργη ευσβτωτ επτακο .
English: What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath made for destruction,
Coptic: jεεfεουωνh εβολ ντμντρμμαο μπεfεοου εjνhενσκευη ννα . ναι ενταfσβτωτου jιννsορπ επεοου .
English: and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory,
Coptic: ναι ον ενταfταhμου ανον . ου μονον εβολ hννιουδαι . αλλα εβολ hννκεhεθνοσ .
English: us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles?
Coptic: ντhε ον εsαfjοοσ νωσηε jεtναμουτε επετεμπαλαοσ αν πε jεπαλαοσ . αυω ταμεριτ αν jεταμεριτ .
English: As he says also in Hosea, 'I will call them 'my people,' which were not my people; and her 'beloved,' who was not beloved.'
Coptic: νσsωπε hμπμα ενταυjοοσ ναυ jεντετνπαλαοσ αν σεναμουτε εροου μμαυ jενsηρε μπνουτε ετονh .
English: 'It will be that in the place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,' There they will be called 'children of the living God.''
Coptic: ησαιασ δε jιsκακ εβολ hαπισραηλ . jεερsαντηπε ννsηρε μπισραηλ ρτhε μπsω ντθαλασσα ουsωjπ πετναουjαι .
English: Isaiah cries concerning Israel, 'If the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea, it is the remnant who will be saved;
Coptic: ουsαjε γαρ εfjωκ εβολ αυω εfsωωτ πετερε πνουτε ναααf hιjμπκαh .
English: for He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth.'
Coptic: κατατhε ον ενταησαιασ jοοσ jενσαβηλ jεαπjοεισ σαβαωθ sωjπ ναν νουσπερμα . νενναsωπε πε ντhε νσοδομα . ντνεινε νγομορρα .
English: As Isaiah has said before, 'Unless the Lord of Armies
Coptic: ενναjοοσ cε jεου jενhεθνοσ ετενσεπητ αν νσατδικαιοσυνη αυταhετ δικαιοσυνη . τδικαιοσυνη δε τεβολ hντπιστισ .
English: What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn't follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;
Coptic: πισραηλ δε εfπητ νσαπνομοσ ντδικαιοσυνη μπfταhε πνομοσ .
English: but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn't arrive at the law of righteousness.
Coptic: ετβεου jεεβολ hντπιστισ αν . αλλα hωσ εβολ hννεhβηυε . αυω αυjωρπ επωνε νjροπ
English: Why? Because they didn't seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone;
Coptic: κατατhε ετσηh jεεισhηητε tνακω hνσιων νουωνε νjροπ μνουπετρα νσκανδαλον . αυω πετναπιστευε εροf νfναjιsιπε αν .
English: even as it is written, 'Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offense; and no one who believes in him will be disappointed.'
Coptic: νασνηυ πουωs μεν ντεπαhητ μνπασοπσ sοοπ εhραι επνουτε hαροου ευουjαι
English: Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.
Coptic: tρμντρε γαρ ναυ jεουνταυ μμαυ νουκωh ντεπνουτε . αλλα καταουσοουν αν .
English: For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
Coptic: ευο γαρ νατσοουν ετδικαιοσυνη μπνουτε . ευsινε νσαταhε τωου ερατσ μμινμμοου . μπουhυποτασσε ντδικαιοσυνη μπνουτε .
English: For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn't subject themselves to the righteousness of God.
Coptic: πjωκ γαρ μπνομοσ πε πεχριστοσ ετδικαιοσυνη νουον νιμ ετπιστευε .
English: For Christ is the fulfillment of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
Coptic: αμωυσησ γαρ σhαι jετδικαιοσυνη τεβολ hμπνομοσ πρωμε ετναασ fναωνh νhητσ .
English: For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, 'The one who does them will live by them.'
Coptic: τδικαιοσυνη δε τεβολ hντπιστισ jω μμοσ ντειhε . jεμπρjοοσ hμπεκhητ jενιμ πετναβωκ εhραι ετπε ετεπαι πε εμπεχριστοσ επεσητ .
English: But the righteousness which is of faith says this, 'Don't say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?' (that is, to bring Christ down);
Coptic: ηνιμ πετναβωκ επεσητ επνουν ετεπαι πε εμπεχριστοσ εhραι hννετμοουτ .
English: or, 'Who will descend into the abyss?' (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)'
Coptic: αλλα ου πετfjω μμοf jεπsαjε hην εhουν εροκ hντεκταπρο . αυω hραι hμπεκhητ ετεπαι πε πsαjε ντπιστισ ετνταsεοειs μμοf .
English: But what does it say? 'The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart;' that is, the word of faith, which we preach:
Coptic: jεεκsανhομολογει μπsαjε hντεκταπρο jεπjοεισ πε ιησουσ . αυω νγπιστευε hμπεκhητ jεπνουτε αfτουνοσf εβολ hννετμοουτ κναωνh .
English: that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Coptic: ευπιστευε γαρ εροf hμπhητ ευδικαιοσυνη ευhομολογει δε μμοf hντταπρο ευουjαι .
English: For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Coptic: sαρετεγραφη γαρ jοοσ jεουον νιμ ετπιστευε εροf νfναjιsιπε αν .
English: For the Scripture says, 'Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.'
Coptic: μνπωρj γαρ sοοπ μπιουδαι μνπουεειενιν . πιjοεισ γαρ νουωτ πε μμοου τηρου εfο νρμμαο εουον νιμ . εουον νιμ ετναεπικαλει μμοf .
English: For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.
Coptic: ουον γαρ νιμ ετναεπικαλει μπραν μπjοεισ fναουjαι .
English: For, 'Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.'
Coptic: ναs δε νhε ευναεπικαλει μπετε μπουπιστευε εροf . ναs δε νhε ευναπιστευε επετε μπουσωτμ εροf . ναs δε νhε ευνασωτμ νουεs μπετταsεοειs .
English: How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?
Coptic: ναs δε νhε ευναταsεοειs ευτμjοουσε . κατατhε ετσηh jεεsjε νεσενουερητε ννετευαγγελιζε νμπετνανουf
English: And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: 'How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!'
Coptic: αλλα μπουσωτμ τηρου νσαπευαγγελιον . sαρεησαιασ γαρ jοοσ jεπjοεισ νιμ πενταfπιστευε επενhροου .
English: But they didn't all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, 'Lord, who has believed our report?'
Coptic: αρα cε τπιστισ ουεβολ hμπσωτμ τε . πσωτμ δε hιτμπsαjε μπεχριστοσ .
English: So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Coptic: αλλα ταjοοσ jεετεμπουσωτμ . εsωπε cε απευhροου ει εβολ επκαh τηρf . αυω ανευsαjε πωh sααρηjσ ντοικουμενη .
English: But I say, didn't they hear? Yes, most certainly, 'Their sound went out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.'
Coptic: αλλα ταjοοσ jεετεμπεπισραηλ ειμε . sαρεμωυσησ jοοσ jιννsορπ jεανοκ tναtκωh νητν εjμπετενουhεθνοσ αν πε . tναtνουcσ νητν εjνουhεθνοσ νατhητ .
English: But I ask, didn't Israel know? First Moses says, 'I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, with a nation void of understanding I will make you angry.'
Coptic: sαρεησαιασ δε τολμα νfjοοσ jεαυhε εροι hννετενσεsινε νσωι αν . αιουωνh εβολ ννετενσεjνου μμοι αν .
English: Isaiah is very bold, and says, 'I was found by those who didn't seek me. I was revealed to those who didn't ask for me.'
Coptic: sαfjοοσ δε επισραηλ jεαιπρs ναcιj εβολ μπεhοου τηρf ευλαοσ νατναhτε αυω εfουωhμ .
English: But as to Israel he says, 'All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.'
Coptic: ταjοοσ cε jεμη απνουτε κα πεfλαοσ νσωf ννεσsωπε . και γαρ ανοκ hω ανγ ουεβολ hμπισραηλ εβολ hμπεσπερμα ναβραhαμ τεφυλη νβενιαμειν .
English: I ask then, did God reject his people? May it never be! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
Coptic: μπεπνουτε κα πεfλαοσ νσωf πενταfσουωνf jιννsορπ . ηντετν σοουν αν jεsαρετεγραφη jοοσ jεου hνhηλειασ . ντhε εsαfσμμε εhραι επνουτε επισραηλ .
English: God didn't reject his people, which he foreknew. Or don't you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:
Coptic: jεπjοεισ νεκπροφητησ αυμοουτου νεκθυσιαστηριον αυsρsωρου ανοκ πενταιsωjπ μαυαατ αυω σεsινε νσαταψυχη .
English: 'Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have broken down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.'
Coptic: αλλα εsαρε πsαjε jοοσ ναf jεου jεαιsωjπ ναι νσαsf νsο νρωμε ναι ετεμπουκλjπατ ντβαhαλ .
English: But how does God answer him? 'I have reserved for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.'
Coptic: ται cε ον τε τhε hμπεικεουοειs ουsωjπ πενταfsωπε καταουμντσωτπ νχαρισ .
English: Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Coptic: ει τε εsjε hνουχαρισ ειε ουεβολ cε αν πε hννεhβηυε μμον τεχαρισ cε ναρχαρισ αν .
English: And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
Coptic: ου cε πετερε πισραηλ sινε νσωf παι μπfματε μμοf ατμντσωτπ δε ματε μμοf απκεσεεπε δε τωμ νhητ .
English: What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn't obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.
Coptic: κατατhε ετσηh jεαπνουτε tναυ νουπνευμα νμκαh νhητ hενβαλ ετμναυ εβολ . αυω hενμααjε ετμσωτμ sαhραι επhοου νhοου .
English: According as it is written, 'God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day.'
Coptic: sαρεδαυειδ ον jοοσ jεμαρετευτραπεζα sωπε ναυ ευcορcσ μνουπαs . αυω ουσκανδαλον μνουτωωβε ναυ
English: David says, 'Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, a stumbling block, and a retribution to them.
Coptic: μαρουρκακε νcινευβαλ ετμναυ εβολ . αυω τευjισε νγολκσ νσηυ νιμ .
English: Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see. Bow down their back always.'
Coptic: ταjοοσ cε jενταυjωρπ jεευεhε ννεσsωπε . αλλα hμπευhε απευjαι sωπε ννhεθνοσ επtκωh ναυ .
English: I ask then, did they stumble that they might fall? May it never be! But by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
Coptic: εsjε απευhε δε ρμντρμμαο μπκοσμοσ . αυω απευsωωτ ρμντρμμαο ννhεθνοσ ειε ουηρ νhουο πε πευjωκ .
English: Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fullness?
Coptic: tjω δε μμοσ νητν νhεθνοσ επhοσον γαρ ανγ παποστολοσ ννhεθνοσ . ttεοου νταδιακονια
English: For I speak to you who are Gentiles. Since then as I am an apostle to Gentiles, I glorify my ministry;
Coptic: jεειεtκωh ντασαρξ τατουjε hοινε εβολ νhητου .
English: if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and may save some of them.
Coptic: εsjε απευτστο γαρ εβολ ρhωτπ μπκοσμοσ . ειε ουηρ πε πευsοπου εhουν νσαπτωουν εβολ hννετμοουτ .
English: For if the rejection of them is the reconciling of the world, what would their acceptance be, but life from the dead?
Coptic: εsjε πεθαβ γαρ ουααβ . ειε πκεουωsμ ουααβ . αυω εsjε τνουνε ουααβ ειε νεσκεκλαδοσ .
English: If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump. If the root is holy, so are the branches.
Coptic: εsjε hοινε δε ννεκλαδοσ αυsαατου . ντοκ δε ντκ ουβω νjιτhοουτ αυτοcκ hραι νhητου . αυω ακsωπε νκοινωνοσ επκννε ντνουνε ντβω νjοειτ .
English: But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them, and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree;
Coptic: μπρsουsου μμοκ εjννεκλαδοσ εsjε κsουsου δε μμοκ ντοκ αν ετfι hατνουνε αλλα τνουνε τετfι hαροκ
English: don't boast over the branches. But if you boast, it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.
Coptic: κναjοοσ cε ναι jενταυsετ hενκλαδοσ jεκαασ ευετοcτ
English: You will say then, 'Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.'
Coptic: καλωσ hνουμνταπιστοσ αυsαατου ντοκ δε εκαhερατκ hντπιστισ μπρjισε cε νhητ αλλα αριhοτε .
English: True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Don't be conceited, but fear;
Coptic: εsjε μπεπνουτε γαρ tσο ενεκλαδοσ ετεhωου νε . νfναtσο hωωκ αν εροκ
English: for if God didn't spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.
Coptic: αναυ cε ετμντχρηστοσ αυω τμντρεfsωωτ μπνουτε τμντρεfsωωτ μεν εjννενταυhε . τμντχρηστοσ δε μπνουτε εjωκ εκsανcω hντμντχρηστοσ . εsωπε μμον hωωκ σεναsαατκ .
English: See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
Coptic: νκοουε hωου ευsαντμcω hντευμντατναhτε σενατοcου . ουνcομ γαρ ον μπνουτε ετοcου .
English: They also, if they don't continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
Coptic: εsjε ντοκ γαρ νταυ sαατκ εβολ hνουβω νjιτhοουτ ναμε αυω παρατεκμινε αυτοcκ ευβω νjιτνουτμ . ποσω μαλλον ναι εhοινε ρω νε σενατοc ου ετευβω νjοειτ μμινμμοου .
English: For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
Coptic: tουωs δε ετρετνειμε νασνηυ επειμυστηριον jεκαασ εννετνsωπε νητν νσαβε jενταουτωμ νhητ sωπε νhοινε μπισραηλ sαντεπjωκ ννhεθνοσ ει εhουν .
English: For I don't desire you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery, so that you won't be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in,
Coptic: αυω ται τε τhε ντεπισραηλ τηρf ουjαι . κατατhε ετσηh jεfνηυ εβολ hνσιων νcιπετνουhμ νfκτεμμντsαfτε εβολ hνιακωβ .
English: and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written, 'There will come out of Zion the Deliverer, and he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
Coptic: αυω ται τε τδιαθηκη ετsοοπ ναυ εβολ hιτοοτειsανκω εβολ ννευνοβε
English: This is my covenant to them, when I will take away their sins.'
Coptic: καταμεν μπευαγγελιον αυρjαjε ετβετηυτν . κατατε τμντσωτπ hενμεριτ νε ετβενευειοτε .
English: Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sake.
Coptic: hενατρhτηf γαρ νε νεχαρισμα μπνουτε μνπεfτωhμ .
English: For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
Coptic: ντhε γαρ ντωτν μπιουοειs εντατετνρατναhτε επνουτε τενου δε αυνα νητν hντμντατναhτε νναι .
English: For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
Coptic: ται τε τhε νναι hωου τενου εαυρατναhτε επετννα jεκαασ hωου ευενα ναυ μννσωσ .
English: even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may also obtain mercy.
Coptic: απνουτε γαρ ετπουον νιμ εhουν ευμντατναhτε jεκαασ εfενα ναυ τηρου .
English: For God has shut up all to disobedience, that he might have mercy on all.
Coptic: ωπsικ ντμντρμμαο μντσοφια αυω πσοουν μπνουτε . ντhε ετενευεsμεsτ νhαπ μπνουτε . αυω ετενευεsνρατου ννεfhιοουε .
English: Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!
Coptic: νιμ γαρ πενταfειμε επhητ μπjοεισ παι ετνατσαβε ειατf εβολ . ηνιμ πενταfsωπε ναf νρεfjιsοjνε .
English: 'For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?'
Coptic: ηνιμ πενταfειρε ναf νsορπ ταρεfτουειο ναf .
English: 'Or who has first given to him, and it will be repaid to him again?'
Coptic: jεπτηρf hενεβολ μμοf νε αυω εβολ hιτοοτf αυω ευνακοτου εροf πωf πε πεοου sανιενεh hαμην .
English: For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever! Amen.
Coptic: tπαρακαλει cε μμωτν νασνηυ hιτνμμντsανhτηf μπνουτε . επαρhιστα ννετνσωμα νουθυσια εσονh εσουααβ εσραναf μπνουτε . πετνsμsε νρμνhητ .
English: Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.
Coptic: ντετντμjιhρβ μπειαιων . αλλα ντετνjι μπhρβ ντμντβρρε μπετνhητ ετρετνδοκιμαζε jεου πε πουωs μπνουτε ετνανουf ετραναf ετjηκ εβολ .
English: Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
Coptic: tjω γαρ μμοσ hιτντεχαρισ ενταυταασ ναι νουον νιμ ετνhητ τηυτν ετμjισε νhητ παρατhε ετsε εμεευε αλλα εμεευε ντοf ενρμνhητ πουα πουα ντhε ενταπνουτε τωs ναf νουsι μπιστισ .
English: For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.
Coptic: κατατhε γαρ ετεουνταν hαh μμελοσ hνουσωμα νουωτ εμπιhωβ αν νουωτ πετεουντε μμελοσ τηρου
English: For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don't have the same function,
Coptic: ται τε τενhε τηρν ανον ουσωμα νουωτ hμπεχριστοσ . πουα δε πουα ανον μμελοσ ννενερηυ .
English: so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
Coptic: εουνταν δε μμαυ νhενhμοτ ευsοβε . κατατεχαρισ ενταυταασ ναν . ειτε ουπροφητεια καταπsι ντπιστισ .
English: Having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, if prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;
Coptic: ειτε ουδιακονια hντδιακονια . ειτε πετtσβω hντεσβω .
English: or service, let us give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;
Coptic: ειτε πετπαρακαλει hμπσοπσ πετt hνουμντhαπλουσ πετπροhιστα hνουσπουδη πετνα hνουουροτ .
English: or he who exhorts, to his exhorting: he who gives, let him do it with liberality; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
Coptic: ταγαπη αjνhυποκρινε . ετετνμοστε μππετhοου . ετετντωcε μμωτν εππετνανουf .
English: Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.
Coptic: hντμντμαισον ετετνοκνεκ εhουν ενετνερηυ ετετνjισε ννετνερηυ ερωτν hμπταειο .
English: In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate one to another; in honor preferring one another;
Coptic: ντετνjνααυ αν hντεσπουδη . ετετνβρβρ hμπεπνευμα . ετετνο νhμhαλ μπjοεισ .
English: not lagging in diligence; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
Coptic: ετετνραsε hντhελπισ . ετετνhυπομινε hντεθλιψισ . ετετνπροσκαρτερει επεsληλ .
English: rejoicing in hope; enduring in troubles; continuing steadfastly in prayer;
Coptic: ετετνκοινωνι ενεχρεια ννετουααβ . ετετνπητ νσατμντμαι sμμο .

Coptic: σμου ενετπητ νσωτν σμου εροου μπρσhουωρου .
English: Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don't curse.

English: Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep.
Coptic: ετετνμεευε ευμεευε νουωτ ενετνερηυ εντετνcωsτ αν ενιμντjασιhητ . αλλα ετετνμοοsε μννετθββιηυ . μπρsωπε νσαβε νναhρητν ουαττηυτν .
English: Be of the same mind one toward another. Don't set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don't be wise in your own conceits.
Coptic: ντετντωωβε αν νουπετhοου hαουπετhοου νλααυ . ετετνfι μπροουs νμπετνανουf μπεμτο εβολ νρωμε νιμ .
English: Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men.
Coptic: εsjε ουνscομ ετετνειρε νατοτ τηυτν ερειρηνη μνρωμε νιμ
English: If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
Coptic: εντετνειρε αν μπετνκβα ναμερατε . αλλα κα πμα ντοργη . fσηh γαρ jενεj πhαπ εροι αυω ανοκ tνατωωβε πεjεπjοεισ .
English: Don't seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God's wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'
Coptic: αλλα ερsανπεκjαjε hκο ματμμοf αυω εfsανειβε ματσοf . εκειρε γαρ μπαι κναπρs hενjββεσ νκωhτ εjντεfαπε .
