| 11:1 | ΛΟΓΟΙ Νεεμία υἱοῦ Χελκειά. Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν μηνὶ Σεχεηλοὺ ἔτους εἰκοστοῦ καὶ ἐγὼ ἤμην ἐν Σουσὰν ἁβειρά· |
| 11:2 | καὶ ἦλθεν Ἁνανὶ εἷς ἀπὸ τῶν ἀδελφῶν μου, αὐτὸς καὶ ἄνδρες Ἰούδα, καὶ ἠρώτησα αὐτοὺς περὶ τῶν σωθέντων οἳ κατελίπησαν ἀπὸ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας καὶ περὶ Ἰερουσαλήμ. |
| 11:3 | καὶ εἴποσαν πρὸς μέ Οἱ καταλειπόμενοι οἱ καταλειφθέντες ἀπὸ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας ἐκεῖ ἐν τῇ χώρᾳ, ἐν πόλει, ἐν πονηρίᾳ μεγάλῃ καὶ ἐν ὀνειδισμῷ, καὶ τείχη Ἰερουσαλὴμ καθῃρημένα, καὶ αἱ πύλαι αὐτῆς ἐνεπρήσθησαν ἐν πυρί. |
| 11:4 | καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἀκοῦσαί με τοὺς λόγους τούτους ἐκάθισα καὶ ἔκλαυσα καὶ ἐπένθησα ἡμέρας, καὶ ἤμην νηστεύων καὶ προσευχόμενος ἐνώπιον θεοῦ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ. |
| 11:5 | καὶ εἶπα Μὴ δή, Κύριε ὁ θεὸς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ὁ ἰσχυρὸς ὁ μέγας καὶ φοβερός, φυλάσσων τὴν διαθήκην καὶ τὸ ἔλεός σου τοῖς ἀγαπῶσιν αὐτὸν καὶ τοῖς φυλάσσουσιν τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ· |
| 11:6 | ἔστω δὴ τὸ οὗς σου προσέχον καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοίσου ἀνεῳγμένοι τοῦ ἀκοῦσαι προσευχὴν δούλου σου, ἣν ἐγὼ προσεύχομαι ἐνώπιόν σου σήμερον ἡμέραν καὶ νύκτα περὶ υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ δούλων σου, καὶ ἐξαγορεύων ἐπὶ ἁμαρτίαις υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἂς ἡμάρτομέν σοι, καὶ ἐγὼ καὶ ὁ οἶκος πατρός μου ἡμάρτομεν. |
| 11:7 | διαλύσει διελύσαμεν, καὶ οὐκ ἐφυλάξαμεν τὰς ἐντολὰς καὶ τὰ προστάγματα καὶ τὰ κρίματα ἃ ἐνετείλω τῷ Μωυσῇ παιδί σου. |
| 11:8 | μνήσθητι δὴ τὸν λόγον ὃν ἐνετείλω τῷ Μωυσῇ παιδί σου λέγων Ὑμεῖς ἐὰν ἀσυνθετήσητε, ἐγὼ διασκορπιῶ ὑμᾶς ἐν τοῖς λαοῖς· |
| 11:9 | καὶ ἐὰν ἐπιστρέψητε πρὸς μέ, καὶ φυλάξητε τὰς ἐντολάς μου καὶ ποιήσητε αὐτάς, ἐὰν ᾖ ἡ διασπορὰ ὑμῶν ἀπʼ ἄκρου τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, ἐκεῖθεν συνάξω αὐτούς, καὶ εἰσάξω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν ἐξελεξάμην κατασκηνῶσαι τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐκεῖ |
| 11:10 | καὶ αὐτοὶ παῖδές σου καὶ λαός σου, οὓς ἐλυτρώσω ἐν τῇ δυνάμει σου τῇ μεγάλη καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρί σου τῇ κραταιᾷ. |
| 11:11 | μὴ δή, ἀλλ᾿ ἔστω τὸ οὖς σου προσέχον εἰς τὴν προσευχὴν τοῦ δούλου σου καὶ εἰς τὴν προσευχὴν παίδων σου τῶν θελόντων φοβεῖσθαι τὸ ὄνομά σου· καὶ εὐόδωσον δὴ τῷ παιδί σου σήμερον καὶ δὸς αὐτὸν εἰς οἰκτειρμοὺς ἐνώπιον τοῦ ἀνδρὸς τούτου. καὶ ἐγὼ ἤμην εὐνοῦχος τῷ βασιλεῖ. |

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.
