6:1	Ἐνισχύσατε, υἱοὶ Βενιαμείν, ἐκ μέσου τῆς Ἰερουσαλήμ, καὶ ἐν Θεκοῦε σημάνατε σάλπιγγι, καὶ ὑπέρ Βαιθθαχαρμὰ ἄρατε σημεῖον· ὅτι κακὰ ἐκκέκυφεν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ, καὶ συντριβὴ μεγάλη γίνεται,
6:2	καὶ ἀφαιρεθήσεται τὸ ὕψος σου, θυγάτηρ Σειών.
6:3	εἰς αὐτὴν ἥξουσιν ποιμένες καὶ τὰ ποίμνια αὐτῶν, καὶ πήξουσιν ἐπʼ αὐτὴν σκηνὰς κύκλῳ, καὶ ποιμανοῦσιν ἕκαστος τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ.
6:4	παρασκευάσασθε ἐπʼ αὐτὴν εἰς πόλεμον, ανάστητε καὶ ἀναβῶμεν ἐπʼ αὐτὴν μεσημβρἰας· οὐαὶ ἡμῖν, ὅτι κέκλικεν ἡ ἡμέρα, ὅτι ἐκλείπουσιν αἱ σκιαὶ τῆς ἡμέρας.
6:5	ἀνάστητε καὶ ἀναβῶμεν ἐπʼ αὐτὴν νυκτί, καὶ διαφθείρωμεν τὰ θεμέλια αὐτῆς.
6:6	ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἔκκοψον τὰ ξύλα αὐτῆς, ἕκχεον ἐπὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ δύναμιν· ὥ πόλις ψευδής, ὅλη καταδυναστεία ἐν αὐτῇ.
6:7	ὡς ψύχει λάκκος ὕδωρ, οὕτως ψύχει κακία αὐτῆς· ἀσέβεια καὶ ταλαιπωρία ἀκουσθήσεται ἐν αὐτῇ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῆς διὰ παντός. πόνῳ καὶ μάστιγι
6:8	παιδευθήσῃ, Ἰερουσαλήμ· μὴ ἀποστῇ ἡ ψυχὴ μου ἀπὸ σοῦ, μὴ ποιήσω σε ἄβατον γῆν ἥτις οὐ κατοικισθῇ.
6:9	Ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος Καλαμάσθε καλαμᾶσθε ὡς ἄμπελον τὰ κατάλοιπα τοῦ Ἰσραήλ, ἐπιστρέψατε ὡς ὁ τρυγῶν ἐπὶ τὸν κάρταλλον αὐτοῦ.
6:10	πρὸς τίνα λαλήσω καὶ διαμαρτύρωμαι, καὶ ἀκούσεται; ἰδοὺ ἀπερίτμητα τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν, καὶ οὐ δυνήσονται ἀκούειν· ἰδοὺ τὸ ῥῆμα Κυρίου ἐγένετο αὐτοῖς εἰς ὀνειδισμόν, οὐ μὴ βουληθῶσιν αὐτό.
6:11	καὶ τὸν θυμόν μου ἔπλησα καὶ ἐπέσχον, καὶ οὐ συνετέλεσα αὐτοὺς· ἐκχεῶ ἐπὶ νήπια ἔξωθεν, ἐπὶ συναγωγὴν νεανίσκων ἄμα, ὅτι ἀνὴρ καὶ γυνὴ συνλημφθήσονται, πρεσβύτερος μετὰ πλήρους ἡμερῶν·
6:12	καὶ μεταστραφήσονται αἱ οἰκίαι αὐτῶν εἰς ἑτέρους, ἀγροὶ καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό, ὅτι ἐκτενῶ τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν ταύτην, λέγει Κύριος.
6:13	ὅτι ἀπὸ μικροῦ αὐτῶν καὶ ἕως μεγάλου πάντες συνετελέσαντο ἄνομα, ἀπὸ ἱερέως ἕως ψευδοπροφήτου πάντες ἐποίησαν ψευδῆ.
6:14	καὶ ἰῶντο τὸ σύντριμμα τοῦ λαοῦ μου. ἐξουθενοῦντες καὶ λέγοντες Εἰρήνη εἰρήνη· καὶ ποῦ ἐστιν εἰρήνη;
6:15	κατῃσχύνθησαν ὅτι ἐξελίποσαν· καὶ οὐδʼ ὡς καταισχυνόμενοι κατῃσχύνθησαν, καὶ τὴν ἀτιμίαν αὐτῶν οὐκ ἔγνωσαν· διὰ τοῦτο πεσοῦνται ἐν τῇ πτώσει αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐν καιρῷ ἐπισκοπῆς ἀπολοῦνται, εἶπεν Κύριος.
6:16	Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Στῆτε ἐπὶ ταῖς ὁδοῖς καὶ ἴδετε καὶ ἐρωτήσατε τρίβους Κυρίου αἰωνίους, καὶ ἴδετε ποία ἐστὶν ἡ ὁδὸς ἡ ἀγαθή, καὶ βαδίζετε ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ εὑρήσετε ἁγνισμὸν ταῖς ψυχαῖς ὑμῶν· καὶ εἶπαν Οὐ πορευσόμεθα.
6:17	καθέστακα ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς σκοπούς, ἀκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς τῆς σάλπιγγος· καὶ εἶπαν Οὐκ ἀκουσόμεθα.
6:18	διὰ τοῦτο ἤκουσαν τὰ ἔθνη, καὶ οἱ ποιμαίνοντες τὰ ποίμνια αὐτῶν.
6:19	ἄκουε, γῆ· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπάγω ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον κακά, τὸν καρπὸν ἀποστροφῆς αὐτῶν· ὅτι τῶν λόγων μου οὐ προσέσχον, καὶ τὸν νόμον μου ἀπώσαντο.
6:20	ἴνα τί μοι λίβανον ἐκ Σαβὰ φέρετε καὶ κιννάμωμον ἐκ γῆς μακρόθεν; τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα ὑμῶν οὐκ εἰσὶν δεκτά, καὶ αἱ θυσίαι ὑμῶν οὐχ ἥδυνάν μοι.
6:21	διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δίδωμι ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ἀσθενίαν, καὶ ἀσθενήσουσιν πατέρες καὶ υἱοὶ ἄμα, γείτων καὶ ὁ πλησίον αὐτοῦ ἀπολοῦνται.
6:22	Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἰδοὺ λαὸς ἔρχεται ἀπὸ βορρᾶ, καὶ ἔθνη ἐγερθήσεται ἀπʼ ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς,
6:23	τόξον καὶ ζιβύνην κρατήσουσιν· ἰταμός ἐστιν, καὶ οὐκ ἐλεήσει· φωνὴ αὐτοῦ ὡς θάλασσα κυμαίνουσα, ἐφʼ ἵπποις καὶ ἅρμασιν παρατάξεται ὡς πῦρ εἰς πόλεμον πρὸς σέ, θύγατερ Σειών.
6:24	ἠκούσαμεν τὴν ἀκοὴν αὐτῶν, παρελύθησαν αἱ χεῖρες ἡμῶν, θλίψις κατέσχεν ἡμᾶς, ὠδῖωες ὡς τικτούσης.
6:25	μὴ ἐκπορεύεσθε εἰς ἀγρὸν καὶ ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς μὴ βαδίζετε, ὅτι ῥομφαία τῶν ἐχθρῶν παροικεῖ κυκλόθεν.
6:26	θυγάτηρ λαοῦ μου, περίζωσαι σάκκον, κατάπασαι ἐν σποδῷ, πένθος ἀγαπητοῦ ποίησαι σεαυτῇ κοπετὸν οἰκτρόν, ὅτι ἐξέφωης ἤξει ταλαιπωρία ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς.
6:27	δοκιμαστὴν δέδωκά σε ἐν λαοῖς δεδοκιμασμένοις καὶ γνώσῃ με ἐν τῷ δοκιμάσαι με τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτῶν·
6:28	πάντες ἀνήκοοι, πορευόμενοι σκολιῶς· χαλκὸς καὶ σίδηρος, πάντες διεφθαρμένοι εἰσίν.
6:29	ἐξέλιπεν φυσητὴρ ἀπὸ πυρός, ἐξέλιπεν μόλιβος· εἰς κενὸν ἀργυροκόπος ἀργυροκοπεῖ, πονηρία αὐτῶν οὐκ ἐτάκη.
6:30	ἀργύριον ἀποδεδοκιμασμένον καλέσατε αὐτοὺς, ὅτι ἀπεδοκίμασεν αὐτοὺς Κύριος.

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.
