| 12:1 | XIIΔαυείδ, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δύο ἦσαν ἤδρες ἐν πόλει μιᾷ, εἶς πλούσιος καὶ εἶς πένης. |
| 12:2 | καὶ τῷ πλουσίῳ ἦν ποίμνια καὶ βουκόλια πολλὰ σφόδρα· |
| 12:3 | καὶ τῷ πένητι οὐδὲν ἀλλ’ ἢ ἀμνὰς μία μικρά, ἣν ἐκτήσατο καὶ περιεποιήσατο καὶ ἐξέθρεψεν αὐτήν, καὶ ἡδρύνθη μετ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ μετὰ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό· ἐκ τοῦ ἅρτου αὐτοῦ ἥσθιεν καὶ ἐκ τοῦ ποτηρίου αὐτοῦ ἕπινεν καὶ ἐν τῷ κόλπῳ αὐτοῦ ἐκάθευδεν καὶ ἦν αὐτῷ ὡς θυγάτηρ. |
| 12:4 | καὶ ἦλθεν πάροδος τῷ ἀνδρὶ τῷ πλουσίῳ, καὶ ἐφείσατο λαβεῖν ἐκ τὼν ποιμνίων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκ τῶν βουκολίων αὐτοῦ τοῦ ποιῆσαι τῷ ξένῳ ὁδοιπόρῳ ελθόντι πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ ἔλαβεν τὴν άμνάδα τοῦ πένητος καὶ έποίησεν αὐτὴν τῷ ἀνδρὶ τῷ ἐλθόντι πρὸς αὐτόν. |
| 12:5 | καὶ ἐθυμώθη ὀργῇ Δαυεὶδ σφόδρα τῷ ἀνδρί, καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ πρὸς Ναθάν Ζῇ Κύριος, ὅτι υἱὸς θανάτου ὁ ἀνὴρ ὁ ποιήσας τοῦτο, |
| 12:6 | καὶ τὴν ἀμνάδα ἀποτίσει ἑπταπλασίονα ἀνθ’ ὦν ὅτι ἐποίησεν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο καὶ περὶ οὖ οὐκ ἐφείσατο. |
| 12:7 | Καὶ εἶπεν Ναθὰν πρὸς Δαυείδ Σὺ εἶ ὁ ἀνὴρ ὁ ποιήσας τοῦτο· ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ Ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ χρίσας σε εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ἐρυσάμην σε ἐκ χειρὸς Σαούλ. |
| 12:8 | καὶ ἔδωκά σοι τὸν οἶκον τοῦ κυρίου σου καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας τοῦ κυρίου σου έν τῷ κόλπῳ σου, καὶ ἔδωκά σοι τὸν οἶκον Ἰσραὴλ καὶ Ἰούδα· καὶ εἰ μικρόν ἐστιν, προσθήσω σοι κατὰ ταὺτα. |
| 12:9 | ὅτι ἐφαύλισας τὸν λόγον Κθρίου τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ· τὸν Οὐρείαν τὸν Χετταῖον ἐπάταξας ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ, καὶ τὴν γυναὶκα αὐτοῦ ἕλαβες σεαυτῷ εἰς γυναὶκα, καὶ αὐτὸν ἀπέκτεινας ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ υἱῶν Ἀμμών· |
| 12:10 | καὶ νῦν οὐκ ἀποστήσεται ῥομφαία ἐκ τοῦ οἵκου σου ἕως αἰῶνος, ἀνθ’ ὦν ὄτι ἐξουδένωσας, καὶ ἕλαβες τὴν γυναὶκα τοῦ Οὐρείου τοῦ Χετταίου τοῦ εἶναί σοι εἰς γυναὶκα. |
| 12:11 | τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐξεγείρω ἐπὶ σὲ κακὰ έκ τοῦ οἴκου σου, καὶ λήμψομαι τὰς γυναῖκάς σου κατ’ ὀφθαλμούς σου καὶ δώσω τῷ πλησίον σου, καὶ κοιμηθήσεται μετὰ τῶν γυναικῶν σου ἐναντίον τοῦ ἡλίου τούτου· |
| 12:12 | ὅτι σὺ ἐποίησας κρυβῇ, κἀγὼ ποιήσω τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ἐναντίον παντὸς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἀπέναντι τούτου τοῦ ἡλίου. |
| 12:13 | Καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ τῷ Ναθάν Ἡμάρτηκα τῷ κυρίῳ. καὶ εἶπεν Ναθὰν πρὸς Δαυείδ Καὶ Κύριος παρεβίβασεν τὸ ἁμάρτημά σου· οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃς. |
| 12:14 | πλὴν ὅτι παροξύνων παρώξυνας τοὺς ἐχθροὺς Κυρίου έν τῷ ῥήματι τούτῳ, καί γε ὁ υἱός σου ὁ τεχθείς σοι θανάτῳ ἀποθανεῖται. |
| 12:15 | Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν Ναθὰν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἔθραυσεν Κύριος τὸ παιδίον ὃ ἔτεκεν ἡ γυνὴ Οὐρείου τῷ Δαυείδ, καὶ ἠρρώστησεν. |
| 12:16 | καὶ ἐζήτησεν Δαυεὶδ τὸν θεὸν περὶ τοῦ παιδαρίου, καὶ ἐνήστευσεν Δαυεὶδ νηστείαν καὶ εἰσὴλθεν καὶ ηὐλίσθη ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς. |
| 12:17 | καὶ ἀνέστησαν ἐπ’ αὐτὸν οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ οἴκου ἐγεῖραι αὐτὸν ἀπὸ τῆς γᾶς, καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησεν· καὶ οὐ συνέφαγεν αὐτοῖς ἄρτον. |
| 12:18 | καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ καὶ ἀπέθανε τὸ παιδάβιον· καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν οἱ δοῦλοι Δαυεὶδ ἀναγγεῖλαι αὐτῷ ὅτι τέθνηκεν τὸ παιδάριον, ὅτι εἶπαν Ἰδοὺ ἐν τῷ ἔτι τὸ παιδάριον ζῇν ἐλαλήσαμεν πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσεν τῆς φωνῆς ἡμῶν· καὶ πῶς εἴπωμεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὅτι τέθνηκεν τὸ ππαιδάριον ; καὶ ποιήσει κακά. |
| 12:19 | καὶ συνῆκεν Δαυεὶδ ὅτι οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ ψιθυρίζουσιν, καὶ ἐνόησεν Δαυεὶδ ὅτι τέθνηκεν το παιδάριον· καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ πρὸς τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ Εἰ τέθνηκεν τὸ παιδάριον ; καὶ εἶπαν Τέθηνκεν. |
| 12:20 | και ἀνέστη Δαυεὶδ ἐκ τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἐλούσατο καὶ ἠλείψατο καὶ ἤλλαξεν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ· καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ᾔτησεν ἄρτον φαγεῖν, καὶ παρέθηκαν αὐτῷ ἄρτον καὶ ἔφαγεν. |
| 12:21 | καὶ εἶπαν οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ πρὸς αὐτόν Τί τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ὅ ἐποίησας ; ἕνεκα τοῦ παιδαρίου ἔτι ζῶνντος ἐνήστευες καὶ ἔκλαιες καὶ ἠγρύπνεις καὶ ἣμίκα ἀπέθανεν τὸ παιδάριον, ἀνέστης καὶ ἔφαγες ἄρτον καὶ πέωκας. |
| 12:22 | καὶ εἶπεν Δαυείδ Ἐν τῷ τὸ παιδάριον ἔτι ζῇν ἐνήστευσα καὶ ἔκλαυσα, ὅτι εἶπα Τίς οἶδεν εἰ έλεήσει με Κύριος, καῖ ζήσεται τὸ παιδάριον ; |
| 12:23 | καὶ νῦν τέθνηκεν, ἴνα τί τοῦτο ἐγὼ νηστεύω ; μὴ δυνήσομαι αὐτὸ ἐπιστρέψαι ἔιτ; ἐγὼ πορεύσομαι πρὸς αὐτον, καὶ αὐτὸς οὐκ ἀναστρέψει πρὸς μέ. |
| 12:24 | καὶ παρεκάλεσεν Δαυεὶδ Βηρσάβεε τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτὴν καὶ ἐκοιμήθη μετ’ αὐτῆς· καὶ συνέλαβεν καὶ ἔτεκεν υἱόν, καὶ ἐκάλεσεςν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Σαλωμών, καὶ Κύριος ἠγάπησεν αὐτόν. |
| 12:25 | καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἐν χειρὶ Ναθὰν τοῦ προφήτου, καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἰδεδεί, ἕνεκεν Κυρίου. |
| 12:26 | Καὶ ἐπολέμησεν Ἰωὰβ ἐν Ῥαββὰθ υἱῶν Ἀμμών, καὶ κατέλαβεν τὴν πόλιν τῆς βασιλείας. |
| 12:27 | καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰωὰβ ἀγγέλους πρὸς Δαυεὶδ καὶ εἶπεν Ἐπολέμησα ἐν Ῥαββὰθ καὶ κατελαβόμην τὴν πόλιν τῶν ὑδάτων· |
| 12:28 | καὶ νῦν συνάγαγε τὸ κατάλοιπον τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ παρέμηυλισθη βαλε ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν καὶ προκαταλαβοῦ αὐτήν· ἴνα μὴ προκαταλάβεμαι ἐγὼ πόλιν καὶ κληθῇ τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐπ’ αὐτήν. |
| 12:29 | καὶ συνήγαγεν Δαυεὶδ πάντα τὸν λαὸν καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς Ῥαββάθ, καὶ ἐπολέμησεν μησεν ἐν αὐτῇ καὶ κατελάβετο αὐτήν. |
| 12:30 | καὶ ἔλαβεν τὸν στέφανον Μελχὸλ τοῦ βασιλέως αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὁ σταθμὸς αὐτοῦ τάλαντον χρυσίου καὶ λίθου τιμίου, καὶ ἦν ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς Δαυείδ· καὶ σκῦλα τῆς πόλεως ἐξήνεγκεν πολλὰ σφόδρα. |
| 12:31 | καὶ τὸν λαὸν τὸν ὄντα ἐν αὐτῇ ἐξήγαγεν καὶ ἔθξκεν ἐν τῷ πρίονι καὶ ἐν ιριβόλοις τοῖς σιδηροῖς καὶ διήγαγεν αὐτοὺς διὰ τοῦ πλινθείου· καὶ οὕτως ἐποίησεν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν εἱῶν Ἀμμών. καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Δαυεὶδ καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ. |

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.
