Translation help for book transcription
« on: 13 November , 2011, 10:10:45 PM »
I'm working on incorporating the translation of The Ancient Coptic Version of the Book of Job the Just by Henry Tattam into my interlinear project (http://xsrc.in/),
I did my best at transcribing the Coptic words in the notes, but I need help knowing where they should be noted in the English text.
If someone could provide translations of these words, that would be very helpful. I've provided the page numbers of the notes which may be checked with the digitization of the book on Google Books. As a side note: does anyone know of any other Coptic to English translations I could put into the interlinear? Thanks!

You will make it much easier for us if u wrote down each verse (the complete verse) in Coptic while underlinging the word in question.
Anyway, for first statment
ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲉⲓ ⲙⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲟ(ⲩ)ϯϭⲓ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ
for this statment to be gramatically correct, I believe there is a missing ⲛ
ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲉⲓ ⲙⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ (ⲛ)ⲧⲟⲩϯϭⲓ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ
and so it becomes
ⲛⲏ-ⲉⲑ-ⲙⲉⲓ ⲙ-ⲫ-ⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲧⲟⲩ-ϯϭⲓ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲛ
ϯϭⲓ must be a verb (but I didnt find it in any dictionary), and so ϯ must mean (to give) and ϭⲓ must be a noun
when ϭⲓ is a noun it would mean "breast" or "nipple" and ϯϭⲓ  should mean suckle/breast feed
the weird translation would be
those who love/like death and/but not breast feeding it???
gramatically this is 100% correct, but the translation doesnt make much sense
I looked in Crum for any other possiblities but I couldn't find any
please provide the full verses of the remaining words maybe I can be more helpful

sorry for the delay
it is translated as "power" but not power as in strength but power as in authority
