| 1:1 | ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ τριακοστῷ ἔτει τετάρτῳ μηνὶ πέμπτη τοῦ μηνὸς καὶ ἐγὼ ἤμην ἐν μέσῳ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας ἐπὶ τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ Κοβάρ, καὶ ἠνοίχθησαν οἱ οὐρανοί, καὶ εἶδον ὁράσεις θεοῦ. |
| 1:2 | πέμπτῃ τοῦ μηνός, τοῦτο τὸ ἔτος τὸ πέμπτον τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας τοῦ βασιλέως Ἰωακείμ, (3)καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Ἰεζεκιὴλ υἱὸν Βουζεὶ τὸν ἱερέα ἐν γῇ Χαλδαίων ἐπὶ τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ Κοβάρ. |
| 1:3 | καὶ ἐγένετο ἐπʼ ἐμέ χεὶρ Κυρίου, |
| 1:4 | καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ πνεῦμα ἐξαῖρον ἤρχετο ἀπὸ βορᾶ, καὶ νεφέλη μεγάλη ἐν αὐτῷ, καὶ φέγγος κύκλῳ αὐτοῦ καὶ πῦρ ἐξαστράπτον, καὶ ἐν τῷ μέσῳ αὐτοῦ ὡς ὄρασις ἠλέκτρου ἐν μέσα τοῦ πυρὸς καὶ φέγγος ἐν αὐτῷ. |
| 1:5 | καὶ ἐν τῷ μέσῳ ὡς ὁμοίωμα τεσσάρων ζώων· καὶ αὕτη ἡ ὅρασις αὐτῶν· ὁμοίωμα ἀνθρώπου ἐπʼ αὐτοῖς. |
| 1:6 | καὶ τέσσαρα πρόσωπα τῷ ἑνί, καὶ τέσσαρες πτέρυγες τῷ ἑνί |
| 1:7 | καὶ τὰ σκέλη αὐτῶν ὀρθά, καὶ πτερωτοὶ οἱ πόδες αὐτῶν, καὶ σπινθῆρες ὡς ἐξαστράπτων χαλκός· καὶ ἐλαφραὶ αἱ πτέρυγες αὐτῶν, |
| 1:8 | καὶ χεὶρ ἀνθρώπου ὑποκάτωθεν τῶν πτερύγων αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσαρα μέρη αὐτῶν· καὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶυ τῶν τεσσάρων |
| 1:9 | οὺκ ἐπεστρέφοντο ἐν τῷ βαδίζειν αὐτά, ἕκαστον ἀπέναντι τοῦ προσώπου αὐτῶν ἐπορεύοντο. |
| 1:10 | καὶ ὁμοίωσις τῶν προσώπων αὐτῶν· πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπου καὶ πρόσωπον λέοντος ἐκ δεξιῶυ τοῖς τέσσαρσιν, καὶ πρόσωπον μόσχου ἐξ ἀριστερῶν τοῖς τέσσαρσιν, καὶ πρόσωπον ἀετοῦ τοῖς τέσσαρσιν, |
| 1:11 | καὶ αἱ πτέρυγες αὐτῶν ἐκτεταμέναι ἄνωθεν τοῖς τέσσαρσιν, ἑκατέρῳ δύο συνεζευγμέναι πρὸς ἀλλήλας, καὶ δύο ἐπεκάλυπτον ἐπάνω τοῦ σώματος αὐτῶν. |
| 1:12 | καὶ ἑκάτερον κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐπορεύετο· οὗ ἄυ ἦν τὸ πνεῦμα πορευόμενον ἐπορεύοντο, καὶ οὐκ ἐπέστρεφον. |
| 1:13 | καὶ ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ζήων θρασις ὡς ἀνθράκων πυρὸς καιομέναον, ὡς ὄψις λαμπάδων συστρεφομένων ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ζᾠων καὶ φέγγος τοῦ πυρός, καὶ ἐκ τοῦ πυρὸς ἐξεπορεύετο ἀστραπή. |
| 1:15 | καὶ ἵδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ τροχὸς εἰς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἐχόμενος τῶν ζήων τοῖς τέσσαρσιν. |
| 1:16 | καὶ τὸ εἶδος τῶν τροχῶν ὡς εἶδος θαρσείς, καὶ ὁμοίωμα ἕν τοῖς τέσσαρσιν· καὶ τὸ ἔργον αὐτῶν ἦν καθὸς ἂν εἴη τροχὸς ἐν τροχῷ· |
| 1:17 | ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσερα μέρη αὐτῶν ἐπορεύοντο. οὐκ ἐπέστρεφον ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτά, |
| 1:18 | οὸδʼ οἱ νώτοι αὐτῶν, καὶ ὕψος ἤν αὐτοῖς· καὶ ἴδον αὐτά, καὶ οἱ νῶτοι αὐτῶν πλήρεις ὀφθαλμῶν κυκλόθεν τοῖς τέσσαρσιν. |
| 1:19 | καὶ ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι τὰ ζῷα, ἐπορεύοντο οἱ τροχοὶ ἐχόμενοι αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐξαίρειν τὰ ζῷα ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, ἐξήροντο οἱ τροχοί. |
| 1:20 | οὖ ἂν ἦν ἡ νεφέλη, ἐκεῖ τὸ πνεῦμα ποῦ πορεύεσθαι· ἐπορεύοντο οἱ τροχοὶ καὶ ἐξήροντο σὺν αὐτοῖς, διότι πυεῦμα ζωῆς ἐν τοῖς τροχοῖς. |
| 1:21 | ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτὰ ἐπορεύοντο, καὶ ἐν τῷ ἑστάναι αὐτὰ ἱστήκεισαν, καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐξαίρειν αὐτὰ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἐξήροντο σὺν αὐτοῖς, ὅτι πνεῖμα ζωῆς ἤν ἐν τοῖς τροχοῖς. |
| 1:22 | καὶ ὁμοίωμα ὑπέρ κεφαλῆς αὐτοῖς τῶν ζήων ὡσεὶ στερέωμα. ὁς δρφσις κρυστάλλου, ἐκτεταμένον ἐπὶ τῶν πτερύγων αὐτῶν ἐπάνωθεν· |
| 1:23 | καὶ ὑποκάτω τοῦ στερεώματος αί πτέρυγες αὐτῶν ἐκτεταμέναι, πτερυσσόμεναι ἑτέρα τῇ ἑτέρᾳ, ἑκάστῳ δύο ἐπικαλύπτουσμι τὰ σώματα αὐτῶν. |
| 1:24 | καὶ ἤκουον τὴν φωνὴν τῶν πτερύγων αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτὰ ὡς φωνὴν ὕδατος πολλοῦ· καὶ ἐν τῷ ἑστάναι αὐτὰ κατέπαυον αἱ πτέρυγες αὐτῶν. |
| 1:25 | καὶ ἰδοὺ φωνὴ ὑπεράνωθεν τοῦ στερεώματος τοῦ ὄντος ὑπέρ κεφαλῆς οὕτων· |
| 1:26 | ὡς ὄρασις λίθου σαπφείρου, ὁμοίωμα θρόνου ἐπʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπὶ τοῦ ὁμοιώματος τοῦ θρόνου ὁμοίωμα ὡς εἶδος ἀνθρώπου ἄνωθεν. |
| 1:27 | καὶ ἴδον ὡς ὄψιν ἠλέκτρου ἀπὸ ὁράσεως ὀσφύος καὶ ἐπάναω, καὶ ἀπὸ ὁράσεως ὀσφύος καὶ ἕως κάτω ἴδον ὡς ὄρασιν πυρός, καὶ τὸ φέγγος αὐτοῦ κύκλῳ. |
| 1:28 | ὡς ὅρασις τόξου, ὅτου ᾐ ἐν τῇ νεφέλῃ ἐν ἡμέραις ὑετοῦ, οὕτως ἡ στάσις τοῦ φέγγους κυκλόθεν. |

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.
