| 21:1 | Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μέ λέγων |
| 21:2 | Διὰ τοῦτο προφήτευσον, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, στήρισον τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἐπὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ ἐπίβλεψον ἐπὶ τὰ ἅγια αὐτῶν, καὶ προφητεύσεις ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τοῦ Ἰσραήλ. |
| 21:3 | καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς τὴν γῆν τοῦ Ἰσραήλ Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ πρὸς σέ, καὶ ἐκσπάσω τὸ ἐγχειρίδιόν μου ἐκ τοῦ κολεοῦ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξολεθρεύσω ἐκ σοῦ ἄδικον καὶ ἄνομον. |
| 21:4 | ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐξολεθρεύσω ἐκ σοῦ ἄδικον καὶ ἄνομον, οὕτως ἐξελεύσεται τὸ ἐγχειρίδιόν μου ἐκ τοῦ κολεοῦ οἰτοῦ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν σάρκα ἀπὸ ἀπηλιώτου ἕως βορρᾶ, |
| 21:5 | καὶ ἐπιγνώσεται πᾶσα σὰρξ διότι ἐγὼ Κύριος ἐξέσπασα τὸ ἐγχειρίδιόν μου ἐκ τοῦ κολεοῦ αὐτοῦ, οὐκ ἀποστρέψει οὐκέτι. |
| 21:6 | καὶ σύ, υἱέ ἀνθρώπου, καταστέναξον ἐν συντριβῇ ὀσφύος σου, καὶ ἐν ὀδύναις στενάξεις κατʼ ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῶν. |
| 21:7 | καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν εἴπωσιν πρὸς σέ Ἕνεκα τίνος σὺ στενάζεις; καὶ ἐρεῖς Ἐπὶ τῇ ἀγγελίᾳ διότι ἔρχεται, καὶ θραυσθήσεται πᾶσα καρδία, καὶ πᾶσαι χεῖρες παραλυθήσονται, καὶ ἐκψύξει πᾶσα σὰρξ καὶ πᾶν πνεῦμα, καὶ πάντες μηροὶ μολυνθήσονται ὑγρασίᾳ· ἰδοὺ ἔρχεται, λέγει κύριος Κύριος. |
| 21:8 | Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μέ λέγων |
| 21:9 | Υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, προφήτευσον καὶ ἐρεῖς Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Εἰπόν Ῥομφαία ῥομφαία, ὀξύνου καὶ θυμώθητι, |
| 21:10 | ὅπως σφάξῃς σφάγια, ὀξύνου ὅπως γένῃ εἰς στίλβωσιν, ἑτοίμη εἰς παράλυσιν· σφάζε, ἐξουδένει, ἀπωθοῦ πᾶν ξύλον. |
| 21:11 | καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν ἑτοίμην τοῦ κρατεῖν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ· ἐξηκονήθη ἡ ῥομφαία, ἐστὶν ἑτοίμη τοῦ δοῦναι αὐτὴν εἰς χεῖρα ἀποκεντοῦντος. |
| 21:12 | ἀνάκραγε καὶ ὀλόλυξον, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ὅτι αὕτη ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ λαῷ μου, αὕτη ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἀφηγουμένοις τοῦ Ἰσραήλ· παροικήσουσιν, ἐπὶ ῥομφαίᾳ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ λαῷ μου· διὰ τοῦτο κρότησον ἐπὶ τὴν χεῖρά σου. |
| 21:13 | ὅτι δεδικαίωται· καὶ φυλὴ ἀπωσθῇ; οὐκ ἔσται, λέγει κύριος Κύριος. |
| 21:14 | καὶ σύ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, προφήτευσον καὶ κρότησον χεῖρα ἐπὶ χεῖρα καὶ διπλασίασον ῥομφαίαν· ἡ τρίτη ῥομφαία τραυματιῶν ἐστιν, ῥομφαία τραυματιῶν ἡ μεγάλη. καὶ ἐκστήσεις αὐτούς, |
| 21:15 | ὅπως μὴ θραυσθῇ ἡ καρδία, καὶ πληθυνθῶσιν οἱ ἀσθενοῦντες ἐπὶ πᾶσαν πύλην· παραδέδονται εἰς σφάγια ῥομφαίας, εὖ γέγονεν εἰς σφαγήν, εὗ γέγονεν εἰς στίλβωσιν. |
| 21:16 | διαπορεύου, ὀξύνου ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ ἐξ εὐωνύμων, οὗ ἂν τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἐξεγείρηται. |
| 21:17 | καὶ ἐγὼ δὲ κροτήσαω χεῖρά μου πρὸς χεῖρά μου καὶ ἐναφήσω θυμόν μου· ἐγὼ Κύριος λελάληκα. |
| 21:18 | Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μέ λέγων |
| 21:19 | Καὶ σύ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, διάταξον σεαυτῷ δύο ὁδοὺς |
| 21:20 | τοῦ εἰσελθεῖν ῥομφαίαν βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος· ἐκ χώρας μιᾶς ἐξελεύσονται αἱ δύο, καὶ χεὶρ ἐν ἀρχῇ ὁδοῦ πόλεως, ἐπʼ ἀρχῆς ²⁵δοῦ διατάξεις τοῦ εἰσελθεῖν ῥομφαίαν ἐπὶ Ῥαββὰθ υἱῶν Ἀμμῶν καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν Ἰουδαίαν καὶ ἐπὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς. |
| 21:21 | διότι στήσεται βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐπὶ τὴν ἀρχαίαν ὁδόν, ἐπʼ ἀρχῆς τῶν δύο ὁδῶν, τοῦ μαντεύσασθαι μαντείαν, τοῦ ἀναβράσαι ῥάβδον καὶ ἐπερωτῆσαι ἐν τοῖς γλυπτοῖς καὶ ἡπατοσκοπήσασθαι ἐκ δεξιῶν αὐτοῦ. |
| 21:22 | ἐγένετο τὸ μαντεῖον ἐπὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ τοῦ βαλεῖν χάρακα, τοῦ διανοῖξαι στόμα ἐν βοῇ, ὑψῶσαι φωνὴν μετὰ κραυγῆς, τοῦ βαλεῖν χάρακα ἐπὶ τὰς πύλας αὐτῆς καὶ βαλεῖν χῶμα καὶ οἰκοδομῆσαι βελοστάσεις. |
| 21:23 | καὶ αὐτὸς αὐτοῖς ὡς μαντευόμενος μαντείαν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν, καὶ αὐτὸς ἀναμιμνήσκων ἀδικίας αὐτοῦ μνησθῆναι. |
| 21:24 | διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἀνθʼ ὧν ἀνεμνήσατε τὰς ἀδικίας ὑμῶν ἐν τῷ ἀποκαλυφθῆναι τὰς ἀσεβείας ὑμῶν, τοῦ ὁραθῆναι ἁμαρτίας ὑμῶν ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἀσεβείαις ὑμῶν καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐπιτηδεύμασιν ὑμῶν· ἀνθʼ ὧν ἀνεμνήσατε, ἐν τούτοις ἁλώσεσθε. |
| 21:25 | καὶ σύ, ἄνομε βέβηλε ἀφηγούμενε τοῦ Ἰσραήλ, οὗ ἤκει ἡ ἡμέρα ἐν καιρῷ ἀδικίας πέρας, |
| 21:26 | τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἀφείλου τὴν κίδαριν καὶ ἐπέθου τὸν στέφανον· αὐτὴ οὐ τοιαύτη ἔσται· ἐταπείνωσας τὸ ὑψηλόν, καὶ ὕψωσας τὸ ταπεινόν. |
| 21:27 | ἀδικίαν ἀδικίαν ἀδικίαν θήσομαι αὐτήν, οὐαὶ αὐτῇ· τοιαύτη ἔσται ἕως οὖ ἔλθῃ ᾧ καθήκει, καὶ παραδώσω αὐτῷ. |
| 21:28 | Καὶ σύ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, προφήτευσον καὶ ἐρεῖς Τάδε λέγει Κύριος πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἄμμων καὶ πρὸς τὸν ὀνειδισμὸν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐρεῖς Ῥομφαία ῤομφαία ἐσπασμένη εἰς σφάγια καὶ ἐσπασμένη εἰς συντέλειαν, ἐγείρου ὅπως στίλβῃς. |
| 21:29 | ἐν τῇ ὁράσει σου τῇ ματαίᾳ, καὶ ἐν τῷ μαντεύεσθαί σε ψευδῆ, τοῦ παραδοῦναί σε ἐπὶ τραχήλους τραυματιῶν ἀνόμων, ἤκει ἡ ἡμέρα ἐν καιρῷ ἀδικίας πέρας. |
| 21:30 | ἀπόστρεφε, μὴ καταλύσῃς ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ ᾧ γεγέννησαι· ἐν τῇ γῇ τῇ ἰδίᾳ σου κρινῶ σε. |
| 21:31 | καὶ ἐκχεῶ ἐπὶ σέ ὀργήν μου, ἐν πυρὶ ὀργῆς μου ἐμφυσήσω ἐπὶ σέ, καὶ παραδώσω σε εἰς χεῖρας ἀνδρῶν βαρβάρων τεκταινόντων διαφθοράς. |
| 21:32 | ἐν πυρὶ ἔσῃ κατάβρωμα, τὸ αἶμά σου ἔσται ἐν μέσῳ τῆς γῆς σου· οὐ μὴ γένηταί σου μνεία, διότι ἐγὼ Κύριος λελάληκα. |

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.
