| 23:1 | Καὶ ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ ὀγδόῳ ἐκραταίωσεν Ἰωδᾶε καὶ ἔλαβεν τοὺς ἑκατοντάρχους, τὸν Ἀζαρίαν υἱὸν Ἰωρὰμ καὶ τὸν Ἰσμαὴλ υἱὸν Ἰωανάν καὶ τὸν Ἀζαρίαν υἱὸν Ὠβὴδ καὶ τὸν Μασσαίαν υἱὸν Ἀζειὰ καὶ τὸν Ἐλεισαφὰν υἱὸν Ζαχαριά, μετʼ αὐτοῦ εἰς οἶκον. |
| 23:2 | καὶ ἐκύκλωσαν τὸν Ἰούδαν, καὶ συνήγαγεν τοὺς Λευείτας ἐκ πασῶν τῶν πόλεων Ἰούδα καὶ ἄρχοντες πατριῶν τοῦ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ. |
| 23:3 | καὶ διέθεντο πᾶσα ἐκκλησία Ἰούδα διαθήκην ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ θεοῦ μετὰ τοῦ βασιλέως· καὶ ἔδειξεν αὐτοῖς τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ἰδοὺ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ βασιλέως βασιλευσάτω, καθὼς ἐλάλησεν Κύριος, ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Δαυείδ. |
| 23:4 | νῦν ὁ λόγος οὗτος ὃν ποιήσετε· τὸ τρίτον ἐξ ὑμῶν εἰσπορευέσθωσαν τὸ σάββατον, τῶν ἱερέων καὶ τῶν Λευειτῶν, καὶ εἰς τὰς πύλας τῶν εἰσόδων, |
| 23:5 | καὶ τρίτον ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ τὸ τρίτον ἐν τῇ πύλῃ τῇ μέσῃ, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἐν αὐλαῖς οἴκου Κυρίου. |
| 23:6 | καὶ μὴ εἰσελθέτω εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου ἐὰν μὴ οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λευεῖται καὶ οἱ λειτουργοῦντες τῶν Λευειτῶν· αὐτοὶ εἰσελεύσονται, ὅτι ἅγιοί εἰσιν· καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς φυλασσέτω φῦλάκας Κυρίῳ. |
| 23:7 | καὶ κυκλώσουσιν τὸν βασιλέα οἱ Λευεῖται κύκλῳ ἀνδρὸς σκεῦος σκεῦος ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὁ εἰσπορευόμενος εἰς τὸν οἴκον ἀποθανεῖται· καὶ ἔσονται μετὰ τοῦ βασιλέως εἰσπορευομένου καὶ ἐκπορευομένου. |
| 23:8 | καὶ ἐποίησαν οἱ Λευεῖται καὶ πᾶς Ἰούδα κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐνετείλατο Ἰωδᾶε ὁ ἱερεύς· καὶ ἔλαβον ἕκαστος τοὺς ἄνδρας αὐτοῦ ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς τοῦ σαββάτου ἕως ἐξόδου τοῦ σαββάτου, ὅτι οὐ κατέλυσεν Ἰωδᾶε τὰς ἐφημερίας. |
| 23:9 | καὶ ἔδωκεν τὰς μαχαίρας καὶ τοὺς θυρεοὺς καὶ τὰ ὅπλα ἃ ἦν τοῦ βασιλέως Δαυεὶδ ἐν οἴκῳ τοῦ θεοῦ. |
| 23:10 | καὶ ἔστησεν πάντα τὸν λαόν, ἕκαστον ἐν τοῖς ὅπλοις αὐτοῦ, ἀπὸ τῆς ὠμίας τοῦ οἴκου τῆς δεξιᾶς ἕως τῆς ὠμίας τῆς ἀριστερᾶς τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ τοῦ οἴκου ἐπὶ τὸν βασιλέα κύκλῳ. |
| 23:11 | καὶ ἐξήγαγεν τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἔδωκεν ἐπʼ αὐτὸν τὸ βασί λειον καὶ τὰ μαρτύρια· καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν καὶ ἔχρισαν αὐτὸν Ἰωδᾶε καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπαν Ζήτω ὁ βασιλεύς. |
| 23:12 | καὶ ἤκουσεν Γοθολία τὴν φωνὴν τοῦ λαοῦ τρεχόντων καὶ ἐξομολογουμένων καὶ αἰνούντων τὸν βασιλέα, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου. |
| 23:13 | καὶ εἶδεν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐπὶ τῆς στάσεως αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς εἰσόδου οἱ ἄρχοντες καὶ αἱ σάλπιγγες, ἄρχοντες περὶ τὸν βασιλέα, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ηὐφράνθη καὶ ἐσάλπισαν ταῖς σάλπιγξιν, καὶ οἱ ἄδοντες ἐν τοῖς ὀργάνοις, ᾠδοὶ καὶ ὑμνοῦντες αἶνον· καὶ διέρρηξεν Γοθολία τὴν στολὴν αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐβόησεν Ἐπιτιθέμενοι ἐπιτίθεσθε. |
| 23:14 | καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ἰωδᾶε ὁ ἱερεύς· καὶ ἐνετείλατο Ἰωδᾶε ὁ ἱερεὺς τοῖς ἑκατοντάρχοις καὶ τοῖς ἀρχηγοῖς τῆς δυνάμεως καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ἐκβάλετε αὐτὴν ἐκτὸς τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ εἰσέλθατε ὀπίσω αὐτῆς, καὶ ἀποθανέτω μαχαίρᾳ· ὅτι εἶπεν ὁ ἱερεύς Μὴ ἀποθανέτω ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου. |
| 23:15 | καὶ ἔδωκαν αὐτῇ ἄνεσιν, καὶ διῆλθεν διὰ τῆς πύλης τῶν ἱππέων τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἐθανάτωσαν αὐτὴν ἐκεῖ |
| 23:16 | Καὶ διέθετο Ἰωδᾶε διαθήκην ἀνὰ μέσον αὐτοῦ καὶ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ τοῦ βασιλέως, εἶναι λαὸν τῷ κυρίῳ. |
| 23:17 | καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πᾶς ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς εἰς οἶκον Βάαλ, καὶ κατέσπασαν αὐτὸν καὶ τὰ θυσιαστήρια καὶ τὰ εἶδωλα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλέπτυναν, καὶ τὸν Ματθὰν ἱερέα τῆς Βάαλ ἐθανάτωσαν ἐναντίον τῶν θυσιαστηρίων αὐτοῦ. |
| 23:18 | καὶ ἐνεχείρησεν Ἰωδᾶε ὁ ἱερεὺς τὰ ἔργα οἴκου Κυρίου διὰ χειρὸς ἱερέων καὶ Λευειτῶν, καὶ ἀνέστησεν τὰς ἐφημερίας τῶν ἱερέων καὶ τῶν Λευειτῶν, ἃς διέ. στειλεν Δαυεὶδ ἐπὶ τὸν οικον Κυρίου καὶ ἀνενέγκαι ὁλοκαυτώματα Κυρίῳ, καθὼς γέγραπται ἐν νόμῳ Μωυσῆ, ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ καὶ ἐν ᾠδαῖς διὰ χειρὸς Δαυείδ. |
| 23:19 | καὶ ἔστησαν οἱ πυλωροὶ ἐπὶ τὰς πύλας οἴκου Κυρίου, καὶ οὐκ εἰσελεύσεται ἀκάθαρτος εἰς πᾶν πραγμα. |
| 23:20 | ὺς καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἐπεβίβασαν τὸν βασιλέα εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν διὰ τῆς πύλης της ἐσωτέρας εἰς τὸν οἰκον τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ ἐκάθισαν τὸν βασιλέα ἐπὶ τὸν θρόνον τῆς βασιλείας. |
| 23:21 | καὶ ηὐφράνθη πᾶς ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἡ πόλις ἡσύχασεν· καὶ τὴν Γοθολία ἐθανάτωσαν. |

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.
