| 7:1 | Ἔτους ἑνὸς καὶ πεντηκοστοῦ ἐξῆλθεν Δημήτριος ὁ τοῦ Σελεύκου ἐκ Ῥώμης, καὶ ἀνέβη σὺν ἀνδράσιν ὀλίγοις εἰς πόλιν παραθαλασσίαν, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐκεῖ. |
| 7:2 | καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἰσεπορεύετο εἰς οἶκον βασιλείας πατέρων αὐτοῦ, συνέλαβον αἱ δυνάμεις τὸν Ἀντίοχον καὶ τὸν Λυσίαν ἀγαγεῖν αὐτοὺς αὐτῷ. |
| 7:3 | καὶ ἐγνώσθη αὐτῷ τὸ πρᾶγμα καὶ εἰπεν Μή μοι δείξητε τὰ πρόσαωπα αὐτῶν. |
| 7:4 | καὶ ἀπέκτειναν αὐτοὺς αἱ δυνάμεις, καὶ ἐκάθισεν Δημήτριος ἐπὶ θρόνου βασιλείας αὐτοῦ. |
| 7:5 | καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς αὐτὸν πάντες ἄνδρες ἄνομοι καὶ ἀσεβεῖς ἐξ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ Ἄλκιμος ἡγεῖται αὐτῶν βουλόμενος ἱερατεύειν. |
| 7:6 | καὶ κατηγόρησαν τοῦ λαοῦ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα, λέγοντες Ἀπώλεσεν Ἰούδας καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ πάντας τοὺς φίλους σου, καὶ ἡμᾶς ἐσκόρπισεν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἡμῶν. |
| 7:7 | νῦν οὖν ἀπόστειλον ἄνδρα ᾧ πιστεύεις, καὶ πορευθεὶς ἰδέτω τὴν ἐξολέθρευσιν ἅπασαν ἣν ἐποίησεν ἡμῖν καὶ τῇ χώρᾳ τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἐκολάσατο αὐτοὺς καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἐπιβοηθοῦντας αὐτοῖς. |
| 7:8 | Καὶ ἐπέλεξεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὸν Βακχίδην τῶν φίλων τοῦ βασιλέως κυριεύοντα ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ καὶ μέγαν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ καὶ πιστὸν τῷ βασιλεῖ· |
| 7:9 | καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτὸν καὶ Ἄλκιμον τὸν ἀσεβῆ, καὶ ἔστησαν αὐτῷ τὴν ἱερωσύνην, καὶ ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ποιῆσαι τὴν ἐκδίκησιν ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ. |
| 7:10 | καὶ ἀπῆλθεν καὶ ἦλθεν μετὰ δυνάμεως πολλῆς εἰς γῆν Ἰούδα· καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἀγγέλους πρὸς Ἰούδαν καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ λόγοις εἰρηνικοῖς μετὰ δόλου. |
| 7:11 | καὶ οὐ προσεῖχον τοῖς λόγοις αὐτῶν· ἴδον γὰρ ὅτι ἦλθον μετὰ δυνάμεως πολλῆς. |
| 7:12 | καὶ ἐπισυνήχθησαν πρὸς Ἄλκιμον καὶ Βακχίδην συναγωγὴ γραμματέων, ἐκζητῆσαι δίκαια. |
| 7:13 | καὶ πρῶτοι οἱ Ἁσιδαῖοι ἦσαν ἐν υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐπεζήτουν παρʼ αὐτῶν εἰρήνην· |
| 7:14 | εἶπαν γάρ Ἄνθρωπος ἱερεὺς ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος Ἀαρὼν ἦλθεν ἐν ταῖς δυνάμεσιν, καὶ οὐκ ἀδικήσει ἡμᾶς. |
| 7:15 | καὶ ἐλάλησεν μετʼ αὐτῶν εἰρηνικοὺς λόγους, καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτοῖς λέγων Οὐκ ἐκζητήσομεν ὑμῖν κακόν, καὶ τοῖς φίλοις ὑμῶν. |
| 7:16 | καὶ ἐνεπίστευσαν αὐτῷ, καὶ συνέλαβεν ἐξ αὐτῶν ἑξήκοντα ἄνδρας, καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτοὺς ἐν ἡμέρᾳ μιᾷ κατὰ τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἔγραψεν |
| 7:17 | ¹⁷Σάρκας ὁσίων σου καὶ αἵματα αὐτῶν ἐξέχεαν κύκλῳ Ἰερουσαλήμ, καὶ οὐκ ἦν αὐτοῖς ὁ θάπτων. |
| 7:18 | Καὶ ἐπέπεσεν αὐτῶν ὁ φόβος καὶ ὁ τρόμος εἰς πάντα τὸν λαόν, ὅτι εἶπαν Οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἀλήθεια καὶ κρίσις· παρέβησαν γὰρ τὴν στάσιν καὶ τὸν ὅρκον ὃν ὤμοσαν. |
| 7:19 | καὶ ἀπῆρεν Βακχίδης ἀπὸ Ἰερουσαλήμ, καὶ παρενέβαλεν ἐν Βηζέθ, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν καὶ συνέλαβεν πολλοὺς ἀπὸ τῶν μετʼ αὐτοῦ αὐτομολησάντων ἀνδρῶν καί τινας τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ ἔθυσεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸ φρέαρ τὸ μέγα. |
| 7:20 | καὶ κατέστησεν τὴν χώραν τῷ Ἀλκίμῳ, καὶ ἀφῆκεν μετʼ αὐτοῦ δύναμιν τοῦ βοηθεῖν αὐτῷ· καὶ ἀπῆλθεν Βακχίδης πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα. |
| 7:21 | καὶ ἠγωνίσατο Ἄλκιμος περὶ τῆς ἀρχιερωσύνης. |
| 7:22 | καὶ συνήχθησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν πάντες οἱ ταράσσοντες τὸν λαὸν αὐτῶν, καὶ κατεκράτησαν γῆν Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐποίησαν πληγὴν μεγάλην ἐν Ἰσραήλ. |
| 7:23 | καὶ ἴδεν Ἰούδας πᾶσαν τὴν κακίαν ἣν ἐποίησεν Ἄλκιμος καὶ οἱ μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐν υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ ὑπὲρ τὰ ἔθνη· |
| 7:24 | καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἰς πάντα τὰ ὅρια τῆς Ἰουδαίας καὶ κυκλόθεν, καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐκδίκησιν ἐν τοῖς ἀνδράσιν καὶ τοῖς αὐτομολήσασιν, καὶ ἀνεστάλησαν τοῦ πορευθῆναι εἰς χώραν. |
| 7:25 | ὡς δὲ ἴδεν Ἅλκιμος ὅτι ἐνίσχυσεν Ἰούδας καὶ οἱ μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔγνω ὅτι δύναται ὑποστῆναι αὐτούς, καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα καὶ κατηγόρησεν αὐτῶν πονηρά. |
| 7:26 | Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Νικάνορα ἕνα τῶν ἀρχόντων αὐτοῦ τῶν ἐνδόξων, καὶ μισοῦντα καὶ ἐχθραίνοντα τῷ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ἐξᾶραι τὸν λαόν. |
| 7:27 | καὶ ἦλθεν Νικάνωρ εἰς Ἰερουσαλὴμ δυνάμει πολλῇ, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς Ἰούδαν καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ μετὰ δόλου λόγοις εἰρηνικοῖς λέγων |
| 7:28 | Μὴ ἔστω μάχη ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ ὑμῶν· ἥξω ἐν ἀνδράσιν ὀλίγοις, ἵνα ἴδω ὑμῶν τὰ πρόσωπα μετʼ εἰρήνης. |
| 7:29 | καὶ ἦλθεν πρὸς Ἰούδαν, καὶ ἠσπάσαντο ἀλλήλους εἰρηνικῶς· καὶ οἱ πολέμιοι ἦσαν ἕτοιμοι ἐξαρπάσαι τὸν Ἰούδαν. |
| 7:30 | καὶ ἐγνώσθη ὁ λόγος τῷ Ἰούδᾳ, ὅτι μετὰ δόλου ἦλθεν ἐπʼ αὐτόν· καὶ ἐπτοήθη ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἠβουλήθη ἔτι ἰδεῖν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ. |
| 7:31 | καὶ ἔγνω Νικάνωρ ὅτι ἀπεκαλύφθη ἡ βουλὴ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἰς συνάντησιν τῷ Ἰούδα κατὰ Χαρφαρσαραμά. |
| 7:32 | καὶ ἔπεσαν τῶν παρὰ Νικάνορος ὡς πεντακισχίλιοι ἄνδρες, καὶ ἔφυγον εἰς τὴν πόλιν Δαυείδ. |
| 7:33 | Καὶ μετὰ τοὺς λόγους τούτους ἀνέβη Νικάνωρ εἰς τὸ ὄρος Σιών· καὶ ἐξῆλθαν ἀπὸ τῶν ἱερέων ἐκ τῶν ἁγίων καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων τοῦ λαοῦ ἀσπάσασθαι αὐτὸν εἰρηνικῶς, καὶ δεῖξαι αὐτῷ τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν τὴν προσφερομένην ὑπὲρ τοῦ βασιλέως. |
| 7:34 | καὶ ἐμυκτήρισεν αὐτούς, καὶ κατεγέλασεν αὐτῶν καὶ ἐμίανεν αὐτούς, καὶ ἐλάλησεν ὑπερηφάνως. |
| 7:35 | καὶ ὤμοσεν μετὰ θυμοῦ λέγων Ἐὰν μὴ παραδοθῇ Ἰούδας καὶ ἡ παρεμβολὴ αὐτοῦ τὸ νῦν εἰς χεῖράς μου, καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν ἐπιστρέψω ἐν εἰρήνῃ, ἐνπυριῶ τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον. καὶ ἐξῆλθεν μετὰ θυμοῦ. |
| 7:36 | καὶ εἰσῆλθον οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ ἔστησαν κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ τοῦ ναοῦ, καὶ ἔκλαυσαν καὶ εἶπαν |
| 7:37 | Σὺ ἐξελέξω τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον ἐπικληθῆναι τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐπʼ αὐτόν, εἶναι οἶκον προσευχῆς καὶ δεήσεως τῷ λαῷ σου. |
| 7:38 | ποίησον ἐκδίκησιν ἐν τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τούτῳ καὶ ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πεσάτωσαν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ· μνήσθητι τῶν δυσφημιῶν αὐτῶν, καὶ μὴ δῷς αὐτοῖς μονὴν. |
| 7:39 | Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Νικάνωρ ἐξ Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν Βεθώρων, καὶ συνῆντησεν αὐτῷ δύναμις Συρίας. |
| 7:40 | καὶ Ἰούδας παρενέβαλεν ἐν Ἀδασὰ ἐν τρισχιλίοις ἀνδράσιν· καὶ προσηύξατο Ἰούδας καὶ εἶπεν |
| 7:41 | Οἱ παρὰ τοῦ βασιλέως ὅτε ἐδυσφήμησαν, ἐξῆλθεν ἄγγελός σου καὶ ἐπάταξεν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἑκατὸν ὀγδοήκοντα πέντε χιλιάδας. |
| 7:42 | οὕτως σύντριψον τὴν παρεμβολὴν ταύτην ἐνώπιον ἡμῶν σήμερον· καὶ γνώτωσαν οἱ ἐπίλοιποι ὅτι κακῶς ἐλάλησεν ἐπὶ τὰ ἅγιά σου, καὶ κρῖνον αὐτὸν κατὰ τὴν κακίαν αὐτοῦ. |
| 7:43 | καὶ συνῆψαν αἱ παρεμβολαὶ εἰς πόλεμον τῇ τρισκαιδεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς Ἄδάρ, καὶ συνετρίβη ἡ παρεμβολὴ Νικάνορος· καὶ ἔπεσεν αὐτὸς πρῶτος ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ. |
| 7:44 | ὡς δὲ ἴδεν ἡ παρεμβολὴ αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἔπεσεν Νικάνωρ, ῥίψαντες τὰ ὅπλα αὐτῶν ἔφυγον. |
| 7:45 | καὶ κατεδίωκον αὐτοὺς ὁδὸν ἡμέρας μιᾶς ἀπὸ Ἀδασὰ ἕως τοῦ ἐλθεῖν εἰς Γαζηρά, καὶ ἐσάλπισαν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν ταῖς σάλπιγξιν τῶν σημασιῶν. |
| 7:46 | καὶ ἐξῆλθον ἐκ πασῶν τῶν κωμῶν τῆς Ἰουδαίας κυκλόθεν, καὶ ὑπερεκέρων αὐτοὺς· καὶ ἀνέστρεφον οὖτοι πρὸς τούτους, καὶ ἔπεσαν πάντες ῥομφαίᾳ, καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐδὲ εἰς. |
| 7:47 | καὶ ἔλαβον τὰ σκῦλα καὶ τὴν προνομήν, καὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν Νικάνορος ἀφεῖλαν καὶ τὴν δεξιὰν αὐτοῦ, ἣν ἐξέτεινεν ὑπερηφάνως. καὶ ἤνεγκαν καὶ ἐξέτειναν παρὰ τὴν Ἰερουσαλήμ. |
| 7:48 | καὶ ηὐφράνθη ὁ λαὸς σφόδρα, καὶ ἤγαγον τὴν ἡμέραν ἐκείνην ἡμέραν εὐφροσύνης μεγάλην. |
| 7:49 | καὶ ἔστησαν τοῦ ἀγαγεῖν κατʼ ἐνιαυτὸν τὴν ἡμέραν ταύτην τῇ τρισκαιδεκάτῃ τοῦ Ἀδάρ. |
| 7:50 | καὶ ἡσύχασεν ἡ γῆ Ἰούδα ἡμέρας ὀλίγας. |

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.
