One day, one of the brothers asked,

2 ϫⲉⲁⲡⲁ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛ ⲟⲩϩⲟⲧⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲛⲟⲩϣⲡⲛϣⲱⲡ ϣⲁⲕⲣϩⲟⲧⲉ ϩⲱⲱⲕ .

Father, if fear suddenly occurs, do you feel afraid?'

3 ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡϩⲗⲗⲟ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲧⲡⲉ ⲧⲱϭⲉ ⲉⲡⲕⲁϩ ⲛⲑⲉⲱⲇⲱⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲣϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲁⲛ .

The father said to him, 'If heaven joins with the earth, Theodore will not be afraid.'

4 ⲛⲉⲁϥⲧⲱⲃⲁϩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϥⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧϭⲁⲃϩⲏⲧ .

For he had entreated the Lord to take fear away from him.
