| 21:1 | Ὁ λόγος ὁ γενόμενος παρὰ Κυρίου πρὸς Ἰερεμίαν, ὅτε ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὀ βασιλεὺς Σεδεκίας τὸν Πασχὼρ υἱὸν Μελχίου καὶ Σοφονίαν υἱὸν Μανασσαίου τὸν ἱερέα λέγων |
| 21:2 | Ἐπερώτησον περὶ ἡμῶν τὸν κύριον, ὅτι βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐφέστηκεν ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς, εἰ ποιήσει Κύριος κατὰ πάντα τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀπελεύσεται ἀφʼ ἡμῶν. |
| 21:3 | Καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς Ἰερεμίας Οὕτως ἐρεῖτε πρὸς Σεδεκίαν βασιλέα Ἰούδα |
| 21:4 | Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ μεταστρέφω τὰ ὅπλα τὰ πολεμικὰ ἐν οἷς ὑμεῖς πολεμεῖτε ἐν αὐτοῖς πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους τοὺς συνκεκλεικότας ὑμᾶς ἔξωθεν τοῦ τείχους εἰς τὸ μέσον τῆς πόλεως ταύτης, |
| 21:5 | καὶ πολεμήσω ἐγὼ ὑμᾶς ἐν χειρὶ ἐκτεταμένῃ καὶ ἐν βραχίονι κραταιῷ μετὰ θυμοῦ καὶ ἀργῆς μεγάλης· |
| 21:6 | καὶ πατάξω πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ, τοὺς ἀνθρώπους καὶ τὰ κτήνη, ἐν θανάτῳ μεγάλῳ, καὶ ἀποθανοῦνται. |
| 21:7 | καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα οὕτως λέγει Κύριος Δώσω τὸν Σεδεκίαν βασιλέα Ἰούδα καὶ τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν λαὸν τὸν καταλειφθέντα ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ ἀπὸ τοῦ θανάτου καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ λιμοῦ καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς μαχαίρας εἰς χεῖρας ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν τῶν ζητούντων τὰς ψυχὰς αὐτῶν, καὶ κατακόψουσιν αὐτοὺς ἐν στόματι μαχαίρας· οὐ φείσομαι ἐπʼ αὐτοῖς, καὶ οὐ μὴ οἰκτειρήσω αὐτούς. |
| 21:8 | καὶ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ἐρεῖς Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δέδωκα πρὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς ζωῆς καὶ τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ θανάτου· |
| 21:9 | ὁ καθήμενος ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ ἀποθανεῖται ἐν μαχαίρᾳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ, καὶ ὁ ἐκπορευὀμενος προσχωρῆσαι πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους τοὺς συνκεκλεικότας ὑμᾶς ζήσεται, καὶ ἔσται ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ εἰς σκῦλα καὶ ζήσεται. |
| 21:10 | διότι ἐστήρικα τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ταύτην εἰς κακὰ καὶ οὐκ εἰς ἀγαθά· εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος παραδοθήσεται, καὶ κατακαύσει αὐτὴν ἐν πυρί. |
| 21:11 | Ὁ οἰκος βασιλέως Ἰούδα, ἀκούσατε λόγον Κυρίου· |
| 21:12 | οἶκος Δαυείδ, τάδε λέγει Κύριος Κρίνατε πρωὶ κρίμα καὶ κατευθύνατε, καὶ ἐξέλεσθε διηρπασμένον ἐκ χειρὸς ἀδικοῦντος αὐτόν, ὅπως μὴ ἀναφθῇ ὡς πῦρ ἡ ὀργὴ μου καὶ καυθήσεται, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ σβέσων. |
| 21:13 | ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ πρὸς σὲ τὸν κατοικοῦντα τὴν κοιλάδα Σὸρ τὴν πεδινήν, τοὺς λέγοντας Τίς πτοήσει ἡμᾶς; ἢ τίς εἰσελεύσεται πρὸς τὸ κατοικητήριον; |
| 21:14 | καὶ ἀνάψω πῦρ ἐν τῷ δρυμῷ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἔδεται πάντα τὰ κύκλῳ αὐτῆς. |

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.
