9:1	Καὶ ἀναστὰς Ἔσρας ἀπὸ τῆς αὐλῆς τοῦ ἱεροῦ ἐπορεύθη εἰς τὸ παστοφόριον Ἰωνᾶ τοῦ Νασείβου,
9:2	καὶ αὐλισθεὶς ἐκεῖ ἄρτου οὐκ ἐγεύσατο οὐδὲ ὕδωρ ἔπιεν, πενθῶν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀνομιῶν τῶν μεγάλων τοῦ πλήθους.
9:3	καὶ ἐγένετο κήρυγμα ἐν ὁλῃ τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ καὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ πᾶσι τοῖς ἐκ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας, συναχθῆναι εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ·
9:4	καἰ ὅσοι ἅν μὴ ἀπαντἠσουσιν ἐν δυσὶν ἢ τρισὶν ἡμέραις κατὰ τὸ κρίμα τῶν προκαθημένων πρεσβυτέρων, ἀνιερωθήσονται τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν, καὶ αὐτὸς ἀλλοτριωθήσεται ἀπὸ τοῦ πλήθους τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας.
9:5	Καὶ ἐπισυνήχθησαν οἱ ἐκ τῆς φυλῆς Ἰούδα καὶ Βενιαμεὶν ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ· οὗτος ὁ μὴν ἔνατος τῇ εἰκάδι τοῦ μηνός.
9:6	καὶ συνεκάθισαν πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος ἐν τῇ εὐρυχώρῳ τοῦ ἱεροῦ τρέμοντες τὸν ἐνεστῶτα χειμῶνα.
9:7	καὶ ἀναστὰς Ἐσρας εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ὑμεῖς ἠνομήσατε καὶ συνοικήσατε γυναιξὶν ἀλλογενέσιν, προσθεῖναι ἁμαρτίαν τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
9:8	καὶ νῦν δότε ὁμολογίαν δόξαν τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν,
9:9	καὶ ποιήσατε τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ καὶ χωρίσθητε ἀπὸ τῶν ἐθνῶν τῆς γῆς καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀλλογενῶν.
9:10	καὶ ἐφώνησαν πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος καὶ εἶπον μεγάλῃ τῇ φωνῇ Οὕτως ὡς εἴρηκας ποιήσομεν.
9:11	ἀλλὰ τὸ πλῆθος πολὺ καὶ ὥρα χειμερινή, καὶ οὐκ ἰσχύσομεν στῆναι αἴθριοι καὶ οὐχ εὕρομεν· καὶ τὸ ἔργον ἡμῖν οὐκ ἔστιν ἡμέρας μιᾶς οὐδὲ δύο, ἐπὶ πλεῖον γὰρ ἡμάρτομεν ἐν τούτοις.
9:12	στήτωσαν δὲ οἱ προηγούμενοι τοῦ πλήθους, καὶ πάντες οἱ ἐκ τῶν κατοικιῶν ἡμῶν ὅσοι ἔχουσιν γυναῖκας ἀλλογενεῖς (13)παραγενηθήτωσαν λαβόντες χρόνον·
9:13	ἑκάστου τόπου τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους καὶ τοὺς κριτάς, ἕως τοῦ λῦσαι τὴν ὀργὴν Κυρίου ἀφʼ ἡμῶν τοῦ πράγματος τούτου.
9:14	Ἰνάθας Ἀζαήλου καὶ Ἑζείας Θοκάνου ἐπεδέξαντο κατὰ ταῦτα, καὶ Μοσόλλαμος καὶ Λευεὶς καὶ Σαββαταῖος συνεβράβευσαν αὐτοῖς.
9:15	καὶ ἐποί ησαν κατὰ πάντα ταῦτα οἱ ἐκ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας.
9:16	Καὶ ἐπελέξατο αὐτῷ Ἐσρας ὁ ἱερεὺς ἄνδρας ἡγουμένους τῶν πατριῶν αὐτῶν πάντας κατʼ ὄνομα, καὶ συνεκλείσθησαν τῇ νουμηνίᾳ τοῦ μηνὸς τοῦ δεκάτου ἐτάσαι τὸ πρᾶγμα.
9:17	καὶ ἤχθη ἐπὶ πέρας τὰ κατὰ τοὺς ἄνδρας τοὺς ἐπισυναχθέντας γυναῖκας ἀλλογενεῖς ἕως τῆς νουμηνίας τοῦ πρώτου μηνός.
9:18	καὶ εὑρέθησαν τῶν ἱερέων οἱ ἐπισυναχθέντες ἀλλογενεῖς γυναῖκας ἔχοντες
9:19	ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰησοῦ τοῦ Ἰωσεδὲκ καὶ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ Μαεήλας καὶ Ἐλεάζαρος καὶ Ἰώριβος καὶ Ἰώδανος·

9:37	Καὶ κατῴκησαν οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λευεῖται καὶ οἱ ἐκ τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ ἐν τῇ χώρᾳ τῇ νουμηνίᾳ τοῦ ἑβδόμου μηνός, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν ταῖς κατοικίαις αὐτῶν.
9:38	Καὶ συνήχθη πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος ὁμοθυμαδὸν ἐπὶ τὸ εὐρύχωρον τοῦ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἱεροῦ πυλῶνος,
9:39	καὶ εἶπεν Ἐσρᾳ τῷ ἱερεῖ καὶ ἀναγνώστῃ κομίσαι τὸν νόμον Μωσέως τὸν παραδοθέντα ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
9:40	καὶ ἐκόμισεν Ἔσρας ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς τὸν νόμον παντὶ τῷ πλήθει ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπου ἕως γυναικὸς καὶ πᾶσιν τοῖς ἱερεῦσι, ἀκοῦσαι τὸν νόμον, νουμηνίᾳ τοῦ ἑβδόμου μηνός·
9:41	καὶ ἀνεγίνωσκεν ἐν τῷ πρὸ τοῦ ἱεροῦ πυλῶνος εὐρυχώρου ἀπὸ ὄρθρου ἕως μεσημβρινοῦ ἐνώπιον τῶν ἀνδρῶν καὶ γυναικῶν· καὶ ἐπέδωκαν πάντα τὸν νοῦν εἰς τὸν νόμον.
9:42	καὶ ἔστη Ἔσρας ὁ ἱερεὺς καὶ ἀναγνώστης τοῦ νόμου ἐπὶ τοῦ ξυλίνοῦ νοῦ βήματος τοῦ κατασ κευασθέντος·
9:43	καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτῷ Ματταθίας, Σαμμού, Ἀνανίας, Ἀζαρίας, Οὐρείας, Ἐζεκίας, Βαάλσαμος ἐκ δεξιῶν.

9:45	καὶ ἀναλαβὼν Ἔσρας τὸ βιβλίον τοῦ πλήθους ἐνώπιον, προεκάθητο γὰρ ἐπιδόξως ἐνώπιον πάντων,
9:46	καὶ ἐν τῷ λῦσαι τὸν νόμον πάντες ὀρθοὶ ἔστησαν· καὶ εὐλόγησεν Ἀζαρίας τῷ ὑψίστῳ θεῷ Παντοκράτορι,
9:47	καὶ ἐφώνησεν πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος Ἀμήν, ἀμήν· καὶ ἄραντες ἄνω τὰς χεῖρας προσπεσόντες ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν προσεκύνησαν τῷ θεῷ.

9:49	Καὶ εἶπεν Ἀτταρατὴ Ἔσρᾳ τῷ ἀρχιερεῖ καὶ ἀναγνώστῃ καὶ τοῖς Λευείταις τοῖς διδάσκουσι τὸ πλῆθος ἐπὶ πάντας
9:50	Ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη ἐστὶν ἁγία τῷ κυρίῳ· καὶ πάντες ἔκλαιον ἐν τῷ ἀκοῦσαι τὸν νόμον·
9:51	βαδίσαντες οὖν φάγετε λιπάσματα καὶ ἀποστείλατε ἀποστολὰς τοῖς μὴ ἔχουσιν.
9:52	ἁγία γὰρ ἡ ἡμέρα τῷ κυρίη, καὶ μὴ λυπεῖσθε· ὁ γὰρ κύριος δοξάσει ὑμᾶς.
9:53	καὶ οἱ Λευεῖται ἐκέλευον τῷ δήμῳ πάντα λέγοντες Ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη ἁγία, μὴ λυπεῖσθε.
9:54	καὶ ᾤχοντο πάντες φαγεῖν καὶ πιεῖν καὶ εὐφραίνεσθαι, καὶ δοῦναι ἀποστολὰς τοῖς μὴ ἔχουσιν, καὶ εὐφρανθῆναι μεγάλως·
9:55	ὅτι καὶ ἐνεφυσιώθησαν ἐν τοῖς ῥήμασιν οἷς ἐδιδάχθησαν. καὶ ἐπισυνήχθησαν.

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.
