| 8:1 | (1)Οὕτως ἔδειξέν μοι κύριος Κύριος, ¹καὶ ἰδοὺ ἄγγος ἰξευτοῦ· καὶ εἶπεν Τί οὺ βλέπεις, Ἀμώς; καὶ εἶπα Ἄγγος ἰξευτοῦ. |
| 8:2 | καὶ εἶπεν Κύριος πρὸς μέ Ἥκει τὸ πέρας ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ἰσραήλ, οὐ προσθήσω ἔτι τοῦ παρελθεῖν αὐτόν. |
| 8:3 | καὶ ὀλολύξει τὰ φατνώματα τοῦ ναοῦ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, λέγει κύριος Κύριος· πολὺς ὁ πεπτωκὼς ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ, ἐπιρρίψω σιωπήν. |
| 8:4 | ἀκούσατε δὴ ταῦτα οἱ ἐκτρίβοντες εἰς τὸ πρωὶ πένητα, καὶ καταδυναστεύοντες πτωχοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, |
| 8:5 | λέγοντες Πότε διελεύσεται ὁ μὴν καὶ ἐμπολήσομεν, καὶ τὰ σάββατα καὶ ἀνοίξομεν θησαυρὸν τοῦ ποιῆσαι μικρὸν μέτρον, καὶ τοῦ μεγαλῦναι στάθμιον καὶ ποιῆσαι ζυγὸν ἄδικον, |
| 8:6 | τοῦ κτᾶσθαι ἐν ἀργυρίῳ καὶ πτωχοὺς καὶ ταπεινὸν ἀντὶ ὑποδημάτων, καὶ ἀπὸ παντὸς γενήματος ἐμπορευσόμεθα; |
| 8:7 | ὀμνύει Κύριος κατὰ τῆς ὑπερηφανίας Ἰακώβ Εἰ ἐπιλησθήσεται εἰς νῖκος πάντα τὰ ἔργα ὑμῶν, |
| 8:8 | καὶ ἐπὶ τούτοις οὐ ταραχθήσεται ἡ γῆ, καὶ πενθήσει πᾶς ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ ἀναβήσεται ὡς ποταμὸς συντέλεια, καὶ καταβήσεται ὡς ποταμὸς Αἰγύπτου. |
| 8:9 | καὶ ἔσται ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, λέγει κύριος Κύριος, καὶ δύσεται ὁ ἥλιος μεσημβρίας. καὶ συσκοτάσει ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἐν ἡμέρᾳ τὸ φῶς· |
| 8:10 | καὶ μεταστρέψω τὰς ἑορτὰς ὑμῶν εἰς πένθος, καὶ πάσας τὰς ᾠδὰς ὑμῶν εἰς θρῆνον, καὶ ἀναβιβῶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν ὀσφὺν σάκκον, καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν κεφαλὴν φαλάκρωμα, καὶ θήσομαι αὐτὸν ὡς πένθος ἀγαπητοῦ, καὶ τοὺς μετʼ αὐτοῦ ὡς ἡμέραν ὀδύνης. |
| 8:11 | ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται, λέγει Κύριος. καὶ ἐξαποστελῶ λιμὸν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, οὐ λιμὸν ἄρτων οὐδὲ δίψαν ὕδατος, ἀλλὰ λιμὸν τοῦ ἀκοῦσαι λόγον Κύριου· |
| 8:12 | καὶ σαλευθἡσονται ὕδατα τῆς θαλάσσης, καὶ ἀπὸ βορρᾶ ἕως ἀνατολῶν περιδραμοῦνται ζητοῦντες τὸν λόγον Κυρίου καὶ οὐ μὴ εἰρωσιν. |
| 8:13 | ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐκλείψουσιν αἱ παρθένοι αἱ καλαὶ καὶ οἱ νεανίσκοι ἐν δίψει, |
| 8:14 | οἱ ὀμνύοντες κατὰ τοῦ ἱλασμοῦ Σαμαρείας, καὶ οἱ λέγοντες Ζῇ ὁ θεός σου, Δάν, καὶ ζῇ ὁ θεός σου, δηρσάβεε. καὶ πεσοῦνται καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀναστῶσιν ἔτι. |

What the layers are
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
