| 21:1 | Τὸ ὅραμα τῆς ἐρήμου. Ὡς καταιγὶς δι’ ἐρήμου διέλθοι, ἐξ ἐρήμου ἐρχομένη ἐκ γῆς, φοβερὸν |
| 21:2 | τὸ ὅραμα, καὶ σκληρὸν ἀνηγγέλη μοι. ὃ ἀθετῶν ἀθετεῖ, ὁ ἀνομῶν ἀνομεῖ. ἐπ’ ἐμοὶ οἶ Ἐλαμεῖται, καὶ οἱ πρέσβεις τῶν Περσῶν ἐπ’ ἐμὲ ἔρχονται. νῦν στενάξω καὶ παρακαλέσω ἐμαυτόν. |
| 21:3 | διὰ τοῦτο ἐνεπλήσθη ἡ ὀσφύς μου ἐκλύσεως, καὶ ὠδῖνες ἔλαβόν με ὡς τὴν τίκτουσαν· ἠδίκησα τὸ μὴ ἀκοῦσαι, ἐσπούδασα τὸ μὴ βλέπειν. |
| 21:4 | ἡ καρδία μου πλανᾶται καὶ ἡ ἀνομία με βαπτίζει, ἡ μου ἐφέστηκεν εἰς φόβον. |
| 21:5 | ἑτοίμασον τὴν τράπεζαν, πίετε, φάγετε· ἀνάσταντες οἱ ἄρχοντες ἑτοιμάσατε θυρεούς, |
| 21:6 | ὅτι οὕτως εἶπεν Κύριος πρὸς μέ Βαδίσας σεαυτῷ στῆσον σκοπόν, καὶ ὃ ἐὰν ἴδῃς ἀνάγγειλον. |
| 21:7 | καὶ ἴδον ἀναβάτας ἱππεῖς δύο, ἀναβάτην ὄνου καὶ ἀναβάτην καμήλου. ἀκρόασαι ἀκρόασιν πολλήν, |
| 21:8 | καὶ κάλεσον Οὐρείαν εἷς τὴν σκοπιὰν Κυρίου. καὶ εἶπεν Ἔστην διὸ. παντὸς ἡμέρας, καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς παρεμβολῆς ἔστην ὅλην τὴν νύκτα, |
| 21:9 | καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἔρχεται ἀναβάτης συνωρίδος. καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν Πέπτωκεν Βαβυλών, καὶ πάντα τὸ. ἀγάλματα αὐτῆς καὶ τὰ χειροποίητα αὐτῆς συνετρίβησαν εἷς τὴν γῆν. |
| 21:10 | ἀκούσατε οἱ καταλελιμμένοι καὶ ὀδυνώμενοι, ἀκούσατε ἃ ἤκουσα παρὰ Κυρίου σαβαώβ· ὃ θεὸς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἀνήγγειλεν ἡμῖν. Τὸ ὅραμα τῆς Ἰδουμαίας. |
| 21:11 | Πρὸς ἐμὲ καλεῖτε παρὰ τοῦ Σηείρ Φυλάξετε ἐπάλξεις. |
| 21:12 | φυλάσσω τὸ πρωὶ καὶ τὴν νύκτα· ἐὰν ζητῇς ζήτει, καὶ παρ’ ἐμοὶ οἴκει, |
| 21:13 | ἐν τῷ δρυμῷ ἑσπέρας κοιμηθήσῃ, ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ Δαιδάν, |
| 21:14 | εἰς συνάντησιν ὕδωρ διψῶντι φέρετε, οἱ ἐνοικοῦντες ἐν χώρᾳ. Θαιμάν, ἄρτοις συναντᾶτε τοῖς φεύγουσιν |
| 21:15 | διὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν φευγόντων καὶ διὸ. τὸ πλήθος τῶν πλανωμένων καὶ διὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς μαχαίρας καὶ διὸ, τὸ πλῆθος τῶν τοξευμάτων τῶν διατεταμένων καὶ διὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῶν πεπτωκότων ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ. |
| 21:16 | ὅτι οὕτως εἶπέν μοι Κύριος Ἔτι ἐνιαυτὸς ὡς ἐνιαυτὸς μισθωτοῦ, ἐκλείψει ἡ δόξα τῶν υἱῶν Κηδάρ, |
| 21:17 | καὶ τὸ κατάλοιπον τῶν τοξευμάτων τῶν ἰσχυρῶν υἱῶν Κηδὰρ ἔσται ὀλίγον, διότι Κύριος ἐλάλησεν ὃ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ. |

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.
