17:1Καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωσαφὰτ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ κατίσχυσεν Ἰωσαφὰτ ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰσραήλ.
17:2καὶ ἔδωκεν δύναμιν ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν Ἰούδα ταῖς ἀχυροῖς, καὶ κατέστησεν ἡγουμένους ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν Ἰούδα καὶ ἐν πόλεσιν Ἐφράιμ ἂς προκατελάβετο Ἀσὰ ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ.
17:3καὶ ἐγένετο Κύριος μετὰ Ἰωσαφάτ, ὅτι ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδοῖς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ταῖς πρώταις· καὶ οὐκ ἐξεζήτησεν τὰ εἴδωλα,
17:4ἀλλὰ Κύριον τὸν θεὸν τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ἐξεζήτησεν, καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἐντολαῖς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ἐπορεύθη, καὶ οὐχ ὡς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ τὰ ἔργα.
17:5καὶ κατηύθυνεν Κύριος τὴν βασιλείαν ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔδωκεν πᾶς Ἰουδὰ δῶρα τῷ Ἰωσαφάτ, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ πλοῦτος καὶ δόξα πολλή.
17:6καὶ ὑψώθη καρδία αὐτοῦ ἐν ὁδῷ Κυρίου, καὶ ἐξῆρεν τὰ ὑψηλὰ καὶ τὰ ἄλση ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς Ἰούδα.
17:7καὶ ἐν τῷ τρίτῳ ἔτει τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ ἀπέστειλεν τοὺς ἡγουμένους αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν δυνατῶν, τὸν Ἀβίαν καὶ Ζαχαρίαν καὶ Ναθαναὴλ καὶ Μειχαίαν, διδάσκειν ἐν πόλεσιν Ἰούδα.
17:8καὶ μετʼ αὐτῶν οἱ Λευεῖται Σαμούας καὶ Μανθανίας καὶ Ζαβδείας καὶ Ἰασειὴλ καὶ Σαμειραμὼθ καὶ Ἰωναθὰν καὶ Ἀδωνιὰν καὶ Τωβαδωβειά, Λευεῖται· οἱ μετʼ αὐτῶν, Ἐλεισαμὰ καὶ Ἰωρὰν οἱ ἱερεῖς.
17:9καὶ ἐδίδασκον ἐν Ἰούδα, καὶ μετʼ αὐτῶν βύβλος νόμου Κυρίου, καὶ διῆλθον ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν Ἰούδα καὶ ἐδίδασκον τὸν λαόν.
17:10καὶ ἐγένετο ἔκστασις Κυρίου ἐπὶ πάσαις ταῖς βασιλείαις τῆς γῆς κύκλῳ Ἰούδα, καὶ οὐκ ἐπολέμουν πρὸς Ἰωσαφάτ.
17:12καὶ ἦν Ἰωσαφὰτ πορευόμενος μείζων ἕως εἰς ὕψος, καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν οἰκήσεις ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ καὶ πόλεις ὀχυράς.
17:13καὶ ἔργα πολλὰ ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαία, καὶ ἄνδρες πολεμισταὶ δυνατοὶ ἰσχύοντες ἐν Ἰερουσαλήμ.
17:14καὶ οὗτος ἀριθμὸς αὐτῶν κατʼ οἴκους πατριῶν αὐτῶν· καὶ τῷ Ἰούδᾳ χιλίαρχοι. Ἐδνάας ὁ ἄρχων, καὶ μετʼ αὐτοῦ υἱοὶ δυνατοὶ δυνάμεως τριακόσιαι χιλιάδες·
17:15καὶ μετʼ αὐτὸν Ἰωανάν ὁ ἡγούμενος, καὶ μετʼ αὐτοῦ διακόσιαι ὀγδοήκοντα χιλιάδες·
17:16καὶ μετʼ αὐτὸν Μασαίας τοῦ Ζαρεὶ ὁ προθυμούμενος τῷ κυρίῳ, καὶ μετʼ αὐτοῦ διακόσιαι χιλιάδες δυνατοὶ δυνάμεως.
17:17καὶ ἐκ τοῦ Βενιαμεὶν δυνατὸς δυνάμεως καὶ Ἐλειδά, καὶ μετʼ αὐτοῦ τοξόται καὶ πελτασταὶ διακόσιαι χιλιάδες·
17:18καὶ μετʼ αὐτὸν Ἰωζαβάδ, καὶ μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἑκατὸν ὀγδοήκοντα χιλιάδες δυνατοὶ πολέμου.
17:19οὗτοι οἱ λειτουργοῦντες τῷ βασιλεῖ, ἐκτὸς ὧν ἔδωκεν ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν ταῖς ἀχυροῖς ἐν πάσῃ τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ.
17:111καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων ἔφερον πρὸς Ἰωσαφὰτ δῶρα καὶ ἀργύριον καὶ δόματα, καὶ οἱ Ἁραβες ἔφερον αὐτῷ κριοὺς προβάτων ἑπτακισχιλίους ἑπτακοσίους.

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.
