| 8:1 | Καὶ Ἐλεισαῖε ἐλάλησεν πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα ἦς ἐζωπύρησεν τὸν υἱὸν λέγων Ἀνάστηθι καὶ δεῦρο σὺ καὶ ὁ οἰκός σου καὶ παροίκει οὗ ἐὰν παροικήσῃς, ὄτι κέκληκεν Κύριος λιμὸν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καί γε ἦλθεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἑπτὰ |
| 8:2 | καὶ ἀνέστη ἡ γυνὴ καὶ ἐποίησεν κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα Ἐλεισαῖε, καὶ ἐπορεύθη αὐτὴ καὶ ὁ οἶκος αὐτῆς· καὶ παρῴκει ἐν γῇ ἀλλοφύλων ἑπτὰ ἔτη. |
| 8:3 | καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὸ τέλος τῶν ἑπτὰ ἐτῶν καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν ἡ γυνὴ ἐκ γῆς ἀλλοφύλων εἰς τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἦλθεν βοῆσαι πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα περὶ τοῦ οἴκου ἑαυτῆς καὶ περὶ τῶν ἀγρῶν ἑαυτῆς |
| 8:4 | καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐλάλει πρὸς Γιεζεὶ τὸ παιδάριον Ἐλεισαῖε τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ θεοῦ λέγων Διήγησαι δή μοι πάντα τὰ μεγάλα ἁ ἐποίησεν Ἐλεισαῖε. |
| 8:5 | καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῦ ἐξηγουμένου τῷ βασιλεῖ ὡς ἐζωπύρησεν υἱὸν τεθνηκότα, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἡ γυνὴ ἧς ἐζωπύρησεν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς Ἐλεισαῖε βοῶσα πρὸς τὸν έα τοῦ οἴκου ἑαυτῆς καὶ περὶ τῶν ἀγρῶν ἑαυτῆς· καὶ Κύριε βασιλεῦ, αὕτη ἡ γυνὴ καὶ οὗτος ὁ υἱὸς αὐτῆς ὄν Ἐλεισαῖε. |
| 8:6 | καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τὴν γυναῖκα, καὶ διηγήσατο αὐτῷ· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῇ ὁ βασιλεὺς εὐνοῦχον ἕνα λέγων Επίστρεψον πάντα πάντα αὐτῆς τὰ γενήματα τοῦ ἀγροῦ, ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ἦς κατέλιπεν τὴν γῆν ἕως τοῦ νῦν. |
| 8:7 | Καὶ ἦλθεν Ἐλεισαῖε εἰς Δαμασκόν· καὶ υἱὸς Ἀδὲρ βασιλεὺς Συρίας ἠρρώστησεν· καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν αὐτῷ λέγοντες Ἤκει ὁ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ θεοῦ ἕως ὦδε. |
| 8:8 | καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς πρὸς Ἀζαήλ Λάβε ἐν τῇ χειρί σου μαανά, καὶ δεῦρο εἰς ἀπαντὴν τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ ἐπιζήτησον τὸν κύριον παρ’ αὐτοῦ λέγων Εἰ ζήσομαι ἐκ τῆς ἀρρωστίας μου ταύτης ; |
| 8:9 | καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἁζαὴλ εἰς ἀπαντὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔάβεμ μαανὰ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὰ ἀγαθὰ Δαμασκοῦ, ἄρσιν τεσσεράκοντα καμήλων, δῶρα· καὶ ἦλθεν καὶ ἔστη ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Ἐλεισαῖε γἱός σου υἱὸς Ἁδὲρ βασιλεὺς Συρίας ἀπέστειλέν με πρὸς σὲ ἐπερωτῆσαι λέγων Εἰ ζήσομαι ἐκ τῆς ἀρρωστίας μου ταύτης; |
| 8:10 | καὶ εἶπεν Ἐλεισαῖε Δεῦρο εἰπόν Ζωῇ ζήσῃ· καὶ ἔδειξέν μοι Κύριος ὄτι θανάτῳ ἀποθανῇ. |
| 8:11 | καὶ παρέστη τῷ προσώπῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔθηκεν ἕως αἰσχύνης· καὶ ἔκλαυσεν ὁ ἄνθρωπος τοῦ θεοῦ. |
| 8:12 | καὶ Ἁζαήλ Τί ὄτι ὁ κύριός μου κλαίει; καὶ εἶπεν Ὅτι οἶδα ὄσα υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ κακά· τὰ ὀχυρώματα αὐτῶν ἐξαποστελεῖς ἐν πυρί, καὶ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς αὐτῶν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ ἀποκτενεῖς, καὶ τὰ νήπια αὐτῶν ἐνσείσεις, καὶ τὰς ἐν γαστρὶ ἐχούσας αὐτῶν ἀναρήξεις. |
| 8:13 | καὶ εἶπεν Ἀζαήλ Τίς ἐστιν ὁ δοῦλός σου, ὁ κύων ὁ τεθνηκώς, ὄτι τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο; καὶ εἶπεν Ἐλεισαῖε Ἔδειξέν μοι Κύριός σε βασιλεύοντα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ. |
| 8:14 | καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἀπὸ Ἐλεισαῖε, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς τὸν κύριον αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ὄ τι εἶπέν σοι Ἐλεισαῖε ; καὶ εἶπεν Εἶπέν μοι Ζωῇ ζήσῃ. |
| 8:15 | καὶ ἐγένετο τῇ ἐπαύριον καὶ ἔλαβεν τὸν χαββὰ καὶ ἔβαψεν τῷ ὕδατι καὶ περιέβαλεν ἐπὶ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀπέθανεν· καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἁζαὴλ ἀντ’ αὐτοῦ. |
| 8:16 | Ἐν ἔτει πέμπτῳ τῷ Ἰωρὰμ υἱῷ Ἀχαὰβ βασιλε Ἰωσαφὰθ βασιλεῖ Ἰούδα ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωρὰμ υἱὸς Ἰωσαφὰθ Ἰούδα. |
| 8:17 | υἱὸς τριάκοντα καὶ δύο ἐτῶν ἦν ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτόν, καὶ τεσσεράκοντα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἰερουσαλἠμ. |
| 8:18 | καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν σραὴλ καθὼς ἐποίησεν οἶκος Ἀχαάβ, ὄτι θυγάτηρ αὐτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα· καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου. |
| 8:19 | καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησεν Κύριος διαφθεῖραι τὸν Ἰούδαν διὰ Δαυεὶδ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ, καθὼς εἶπεν δοῦναι αὐτῷ λύχνον πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας. |
| 8:20 | ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ἠθέτησεν Ἐδὼμ ὑποκάτωθεν χειρὸς Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐβασίλευσαν ἐφ’ ἑαυτοὺς βασιλέα. |
| 8:21 | καὶ ἀνέβη Ἰωρὰμ εἰς Σειὼρ καὶ πάντα τὰ ἅρματα μετ’ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῦ ἀναστάντος, καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὸν Ἐδὼμ τὸν κυκλώσαντα ἐπ’ αὐτὸν καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας τῶν ἁρμάτων, καὶ ἔφυγεν ὁ λαὸς εἰ ς τὰ σκηνώματα αὐτῶν. |
| 8:22 | καὶ ἠθέτησεν Εδὼμ ὑποκάτω τῆς χειρὸς Ἰούδα ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης. τότε ἠθέτησεν Σεννὰ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ. |
| 8:23 | καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἰωρὰμ καὶ πάντα ὄσα ἐποίησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γέγραπται ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ἰούδα ; |
| 8:24 | καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωρὰμ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐτάφη μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυεὶδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ὀχοζείας υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ’ αὐτοῦ. |
| 8:25 | Ἑν ἔτει δωδεκάτῳ τῷ Ἰωρὰμ υἱῷ Ἀχαὰβ βασιλεῖ Ἰσραὴλ ἐβασίλευσεν Ὀχοζείας υἱὸς Ιωράμ. |
| 8:26 | υἱὸς εἴκοσι καὶ δύο ἐτῶν Ὀχοξείας ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτόν, καὶ ἐνιαυτὸν ἔνα ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν καὶ ὄνομα τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ Γοθολία θυγάτηρ Ἀμβρεὶ Ἰσραήλ. |
| 8:27 | καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν ὁδῷ οἴκου Ἀχαάβ, καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου κοθὼς ὁ οἶκος Ἀχαάβ. |
| 8:28 | καὶ ἐπορεύθη μετὰ Ἰωρὰμ υἱοῦ Ἀχαὰβ εἰς πόλεμον μετὰ Ἀζαὴλ βασιλέως ἀλλοφύλων ἐν Ῥεμμὼθ Γαλαάδ, καὶ ἐπάταξαν οἱ Σύροι τὸν Ἰωράμ. |
| 8:29 | καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰωρὰμ τοῦ ἰατρευθῆναι ἐν Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ τῶν ν ἐπάταξαν αὐτὸν ἐν Ῥεμμὼθ ἐν τῷ πολεμεῖν αὐτὸν μετὰ βασιλέως Συρίας· καὶ Ὀχοζεὶ υἱὸς Ἰωρὰμ κατέβη τοῦ ἰδεῖν τὸν υἱὸν Ἀχαὰβ ἐν Ἰσραήλ, ὄτι ἠρρώστει αὐτός. |

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.
