Bohairic Habakkuk 3 (Digital Edition) — bohairic-habakkuk. Coptic SCRIPTORIUM corpus "bohairic-habakkuk", document bohairic.Habakkuk_03. Layers as published by the Kemetic project (Yousef Hanna), 2026: Coptic · Cairene · Kemetic, /doc/bible/old-testament/habakkuk/03.bohairic.scriptorium-gold/. Bohairic Habakkuk 3 (Digital Edition) from Coptic SCRIPTORIUM (https://copticscriptorium.org), corpus bohairic-habakkuk, document bohairic.Habakkuk_03, version 6.2.0 (2025-11-25), annotations by Nina Speranskaja, Nicholas Wagner, Amir Zeldes; source edition Hany Takla, Marcion Project.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.

L0.5 transliteration
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).

L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.

L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.

English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
