16:1	Καὶ σὺ μὴ λάβῃς γυναῖκα, λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ,
16:2	καὶ οὐ γεννηθήσεταί σοι υἱὸς οὐδὲ θυγάτηρ ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ.
16:3	ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος περὶ τῶν υἱῶν καὶ περὶ τῶν θυγατέρων τῶν γεννωμένων ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ, καὶ περὶ τῶν μητέρων αὐτῶν τῶν τετοκυιῶν αὐτούς, καὶ περὶ τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν τῶν γεγεννηκότων αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ
16:4	Ἐν θανάτῳ νοσερῷ ἀποθανοῦνται, οὐ κοπήσονται καὶ οὐ ταφήσονται· εἰς παράδειγμα ἐπὶ προσώπου τῆς γῆς ἔσονται, καὶ τοῖς θηρίοις τῆς γῆς ἔσονται καὶ τοῖς πετεινοῖς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ· ἐν μαχαίρᾳ πεσοῦνται καὶ ἐν λιμῷ συντελεσθήσονται.
16:5	τάδε λέγει Κύριος Μὴ εἰσέλθῃς εἰς θίασον αὐτῶν, καὶ μὴ πορευθῇς τοῦ κόψασθαι, καὶ μὴ πενθήσῃς αὐτούς, ὅτι ἀφέστακα τὴν εἰρήνην μου ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου.
16:6	οὐ μὴ κόψονται αὐτοὺς οὐδὲ ἐντομίδας οὐ μὴ ποιήσουσιν καὶ οὐ ξυρηθήσονται,
16:7	καὶ οὐ μὴ κλασθῇ ἄρτος ἐν πένθει αὐτῶν εἰς παράκλησιν ἐπὶ τεθνηκότι· οὐ ποτιοῦσιν αὐτὸν ποτήριον εἰς παράκλησιν ἐπὶ πατρὶ καὶ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ.
16:8	εἰς οἰκίαν πότου οὐκ εἰσελεύσῃ συνκαθίσαι μετʼ αὐτῶν τοῦ φαγεῖν καὶ πιεῖν.
16:9	διότι τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ καταλύω ἐκ τοῦ τόπου τούτου ἐνώπιον τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν ὑμῶν καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ὑμῶν φωνὴν χαρᾶς καὶ φωνὴν εὐφροσύνης, φωνὴν νυμφίου καὶ φωνὴν νύμφης.
16:10	καὶ ἔσται ὅταν ἀναγγείλῃς τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ ἅπαντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, καὶ εἴπωσιν πρὸς σέ Διὰ τί ἐλάλησεν Κύριος ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς πάντα τὰ κακὰ ταῦτα; τίς ἡ ἀδικία ἡμῶν; καὶ τίς ἡ ἁμαρτία ἡμῶν ἣν ἡμάρτομεν ἔναντι Κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν;
16:11	καὶ ἐρεῖς αὐτοῖς Ἀνθʼ ὧν ἐνκατέλιπόν με οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν, λέγει Κύριος, καὶ ᾤχοντο ὀπίσω θεῶν ἀλλοτρίων καὶ ἐδούλευσαν αὐτοῖς καὶ προσεκύνησαν αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἐμέ ἐγκατέλιπον καὶ τὸν νόμον μου οὐκ ἐφυλάξαντο,
16:12	καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐπονηρεύσασθε ὑπέρ τοὺς πατέρας ὑμῶν· καὶ ἰδοὺ ὑμεῖς πορεύεσθε ἕκαστος ὀπίσω τῶν ἀρεστῶν τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν τῆς πονηρᾶς τοῦ μὴ ὑπακούειν μου.
16:13	καὶ ἀπορίψω ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ταύτης εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν οὐκ ῇδειτε ὑμεῖς καὶ οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν, καὶ δουλεύσετε ἐκεῖ θεοῖς ἑτέροις οἱ οὐ δώσουσιν ὑμῖν ἔλεος.
16:14	Διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται, λέγει Κύριος, καὶ οὐκ ἐροῦσιν ἔτι Ζῇ Κύριος ὁ ἀναγαγὼν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου,
16:15	ἀλλά Ζῇ Κύριος ὃς ἀνήγαγεν τὸν οἶκον Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ γῆς βορρᾶ καὶ ἀπὸ πασῶν τῶν χωρῶν οὗ ἐξώσθησαν ἐκεῖ· καὶ ἀποκαταστήσω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν ἣν ἔδωκα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν.
16:16	ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω τοὺς ἁλεεῖς τοὺς πολλούς, λέγει Κύριος, καὶ ἁλιεύσουσιν αὐτοὺς· καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἀποστελῶ τοὺς πολλοὺς θηρευτάς, καὶ θηρεύσουσιν αὐτοὺς ἐπάνω παντὸς ὄρους καὶ ἐπάνω παντὸς βουνοῦ καὶ ἐκ τῶν τρυμαλιῶν τῶν πετρῶν.
16:17	ὅτι οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου ἐπὶ πάσας τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῶν, καὶ οὐκ ἐκρύβη τὰ ἀδικήματα αὐτῶν ἀπέναντι τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν μου.
16:18	καὶ ἀνταποδώσω διὰ πάσας τὰς κακίας αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν, ἐφʼ αἷς ἐβεβήλωσαν τὴν γῆν μου ἐν τοῖς θνησιμαίοις τῶν βδελυγμάτων αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἀνομίαις αὐτῶν, ἐν αἷς ἐπλημμέλησαν τὴν κληρονομίαν μου.
16:19	Κύριε, σὺ ἰσχύς μου καὶ βοηθία μου καὶ καταφυγὴ μου ἐν ἡμέραις κακῶν· πρὸς σὲ ἔθνη ἥξουσιν ἀπʼ ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐροῦσιν Ὡς ψευδῆ ἐκτήσαντο οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν εἴδωλα, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν αὐτοῖς ὠφέλημα.
16:20	εἰ ποιήσει ἑαυτῷ ἄνθρωπος θεούς, καὶ οὗτοι οὐκ εἰσὶν θεοί;
16:21	διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δηλώσω αὐτοῖς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τούτῳ τὴν χεῖρά μου, καὶ γνωριῶ αὐτοῖς τὴν δύναμίν μου, καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι ὄνομά μοι 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.
