| 2:1 | Ἐπὶ τῆς φυλακῆς μου στήσομαι καὶ ἐπιβήσομαι ἐπὶ πέτραν, καὶ ἀποσκοπεύσω τοῦ ἰδεῖν τί λαλήσει ἐν ἐμοί, καὶ τί ἀποκριθῶ ἐπὶ τὸν ἔλεγχόν μου. |
| 2:2 | καὶ ἀπεκρίθη πρὸς μέ Κύριος καὶ εἶπεν Γράψον ὅρασιν καὶ σαφῶς εἰς πυξίον, ὅπως διώκῃ ὁ ἀναγινώσκων αὐτά. |
| 2:3 | διότι ἔτι ὅρασις εἰς καιρόν, καὶ ἀνατελεῖ εἰς πέρας καὶ οὐκ εἰς κενόν· ἐὰν ὑστερήσῃ, ὑπόμεινον αὐτόν, ὅτι ἐρχόμενος ἥξει καὶ οὐ μὴ χρονίσῃ. |
| 2:4 | ἐὰν ὑποστείληται, οὐκ εὐδοκεῖ ἡ ψυχὴ μου ἐν αὐτῷ· ὁ δὲ δίκαιος ἐκ πίστεως μου ζήσεται. |
| 2:5 | δὲ κατοιόμενος καταφρονητής· οὐδέν μὴ περάνῃ· ὃς ἐπλάτυνεν καθὼς ᾅης τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὗτος ὡς θάνατος οὐκ ἐμπιπλάμενος, καὶ ἐπισυνάξει ἐπʼ αὐτὸν πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, καὶ εἰσδέξεται πρὸς αὐτὸν πάντας τοὺς λαούς. |
| 2:6 | οὐχὶ ταῦτα πάντα παραβολὴν κατʼ αὐτοῦ λήμψονται καὶ πρόβλημα εἰς διήγησιν αὐτοῦ; καὶ ἐροῦσιν Οὐαὶ ὁ πληθύνων ἑαυτῷ τὰ οὐκ ὄντα αὐτοῦ· ἕως τίνος; καὶ βαρύνων τὸν κλοιὸν αὐτοῦ στιβαρῶς. |
| 2:7 | ὅτι ἐξαίφνης ἀναστήσονται δάκνοντες αὐτόν, καὶ ἐκνήψουσιν οἱ ἐπίβουλοί σου, καὶ ἔσῃ εἰς διαρπαγὴν αὐτοῖς. |
| 2:8 | διότι ἐσκύλευσας ἔθνη πολλά, σκυλεύσουσιν πάντες οἱ ὑπολελιμμένοι λαοί, δι᾿ αἵματα ἀνθρώπων καὶ ἀσεβείας γῆς καὶ πόλεως καὶ πάντων τῶν κατοικούντων αὐτήν. |
| 2:9 | Ὢ ὁ πλεονεκτῶν πλεονεξίαν κακὴν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ, τοῦ τάξαι εἰς ὕψος νοσσιὰν αὐτοῦ, τοῦ ἐκσπασθῆναι ἐκ χειρὸς κακῶν· |
| 2:10 | ἐβουλεύσω αἰσχύνην τῷ οἴκῳ σου, συνεπέρανας λαοὺς πολλούς, καὶ ἐξήμαρτεν ἡ ψυχή σου· |
| 2:11 | διότι λίθος ἐκ τοίχου βοήσεται, καὶ κάνθαρος ἐκ ξύλου φθέγξεται αὐτά. |
| 2:12 | Οὐαὶ ὁ οἰκοδομῶν πόλιν ἐν αἵμασιν, καὶ ἑτοιμάζων πόλιν ἐν ἀδικίαις. |
| 2:13 | οὐ ταῦτά ἐστιν παρὰ Κυρίου Παντοκράτορος ; καὶ ἐξέλιπον λαοὶ ἱκανοὶ ἐν πυρί, καὶ ἔθνη πολλὰ ὠλιγοψύχησαν. |
| 2:14 | ὅτι ἐμπλησθήσεται ἡ γῆ τοῦ γνῶναι τὴν δόξαν Κυρίου, ὡς ὕδωρ κατακαλύψει αὐτούς. |
| 2:15 | Ὢ ὁ ποτίζων τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ ἀνατροπῇ θολερῷ, καὶ μεθύσκων, ὅπως ἐπιβλέπῃ ἐπὶ τὰ σπήλαια αὐτῶν. |
| 2:16 | πλησμονὴν ἀτιμίας ἐκ δόξης πίε καὶ σύ· καρδίᾳ σαλεύθητι καὶ σείσθητι· ἐκύκλωσεν ἐπὶ σέ ποτήριον δεξιᾶς Κυρίου, καὶ συνήχθη ἀτιμία ἐπὶ τὴν δόξαν σου. |
| 2:17 | διότι ἀσέβεια τοῦ Λιβάνου καλύψει σε, καὶ ταλαιπωρία θηρίων πτοήσει σε, διὰ αἵματα ἀνθρώπων καὶ ἀσεβείας γῆς καὶ πόλεως καὶ πάντων τῶν κατοικούντων αὐτήν. |
| 2:18 | Τί ὠφελεῖ γλυπτόν, ὅτι ἔγλυψαν αὐτό; ἔπλασεν αὐτὸ χώνευμα, φαντασίαν ψευδῆ, ὅτι πέποιθεν ὁ πλάσας ἐπὶ τὸ πλάσμα αὐτοῦ τοῦ ποιῆσαι εἴδωλα κωφά. |
| 2:19 | οὐαὶ ὁ λέγων τῷ ξύλῳ Ἔκνηψον ἐξεγέρθητι, καὶ τῷ λίθῳ Ὑψώθητι καὶ αὐτό ἐστιν φαντασία, τοῦτο δέ ἐστιν ἔλασμα χρυσίου καὶ ἀργυρίου, καὶ πᾶν πνεῖμα οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν αὐτῷ. |
| 2:20 | ὁ δὲ κύριος ἐν ναῷ ἁγίῳ αὐτοῦ· εὐλαβείσθω ἀπὸ προσώπου πᾶσα ἡ γῆ. |

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.
