| 2:1 | Ἐγένετο δὲ ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα αὕτη καὶ ἦλθον οἱ ἄγγελοι τοῦ θεοῦ παραστῆναι ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ ὁ διάβολος ἦλθεν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν παραστῆναι ἐναντίον τοῦ κυρίου. |
| 2:2 | καὶ εἶπεν ὁ κύριος τῷ διαβόλῳ Πόθεν σὺ ἔρχῃ; τότε εἶπεν ὁ διάβολος ἐνώπιον τοῦ κυρίου Διαπορευθεὶς τὴν ὑπʼ οὐρανὸν καὶ ἐμπεριπατήσας τὴν σύμπασαν πάρειμι. |
| 2:3 | εἶπεν δὲ ὁ κύριος πρὸς τὸν διάβολον Προσέσχες οὖν τῷ θεράποντί μου Ἰὼβ; ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν κατʼ αὐτὸν τῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ἄνθρωπος ἄκακος, ἀληθινός, ἄμεμπτος, θεοσεβής, ἀπεχόμενος ἀπὸ παντὸς κακοῦ. οὐ δὲ εἶπας τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ διὰ κενῆς ἀπολέοαι ἔτι δὲ ἔχεται ἀκακίας· σὺ δὲ εἶπας τὰ ἁπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ κενῆς ἀπολέσαι. |
| 2:4 | ὑπολαβὼν δὲ ὁ διάβολος εἶπεν τῷ κυρίῳ Δἐρμα ὑπέρ δέρματος· ὅσα ὑπάρχει ἀνθρώπῳ ὑπέρ τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ ἐκτίσει. |
| 2:5 | οὐ μὴν δὲ ἀλλὰ ἀποστείλας τὴν χεῖρά σου ἅψαι τῶν ὀστῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν σαρκῶν αὐτοῦεἰ lμὴν εἰς πρόσωπόν σε εὐλογήσει. |
| 2:6 | εἶνεν δὲ ὁ κύριος τῷ διαβόλῳ Ἰδοὺ παραδίδωμί σοι αὐμόνον τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ διαφύλαξον. |
| 2:7 | ἐξῆλθεν δὲ ὁ διάβολος ἀπὸ τοῦ κυρίου. καὶ ἔπαισεν τὸν Ἰὼβ ἕλκει πονηρῷ ἀπὸ ποδῶν ἕως |
| 2:8 | κμὶ ἔλαβεν ὄστρακον ἵνα τὸν χῶρα ξύῃ. κεφαλῆς. καὶ ἐκάθητο ἐπὶ τῆς κοπρίας ἔξω τῆς πόλεως. |
| 2:9 | χρόνου δὲ πολλοῦ προβεβηκότος εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ Μέχρι τίνος καρτερήσεις λέγων |
| 2:9a | ᵃἸδοὺ ἀναμένω χρόνον ἔτι μικρὸν προσδεχόμενος τὴν ἐλπίδα τῆς σωτηρίας μου |
| 2:9b | bἰβοὺ γὰρ ἠφάνισταί σου τὸ μνημόσυνον ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς. υἱοὶ καὶ θυγατέρες, ἐμῆς κοιλίας ὠδῖνες καὶ πόνοι. σὓς εἰς τὸ κενὸν ἐκοπίασα μετὰ μόχθων. |
| 2:9c | cσύ τε αὐτὸς ἐν σαπρίᾳ σκωλήκων κάθησαι διανυκτερεύων αἴδριος· |
| 2:9d | dκἀγὼ πλανωμένη καὶ λάτρις. τόπον ἐκ τόπου καὶ οἰκίαν ἐξ οἰκίας, προσδεχομένη τὸν ἥλιον πότε δύσεται, ἵνα ἀναπαύσωμαι τῶν μόχθων μου καὶ τῶν ὀδυνῶν αἵ με υῦν συνέχουσιν. ἀλλὰ εἰπόν τι ῥῆμα εἰς Κύριον, καὶ τελεύτα. |
| 2:10 | ὁ δὲ ἐμβλέψας εἶπεν αὐτῇ Ὤσπερ μία τῶν ἀφρόναν γυναικῶν ἐλάλησας· εἰ τὰ ἀγαθὰ ἐδεξάμεθα ἐκ χειρὸς Κυρίου, τὰ κακὰ οὐχ ὐποί σομεν ; ἐν πᾶσιν τούτοις τοῖς συμβεβηκόσαὶ αὐτῷ οὐδὲν ἥμαρτεν Ἰὼβ τοῖς χείλεσιν ἐναντίν τοῦ θεοῦ. |
| 2:11 | Ἀκούσαντες δὲ οἱ πρεῖς φίῦλοι αὐτοῦ τὰ κακὰ πάντα τὰ ἐπελθόντα αὐτῷ, παρεγένοντο ἕκαστος ἐκ τῆς ἰδίας χώρας πρὸς αὐτόν, Ἐλειφὰζ ὁ Θιμανῶν βασιλεύς, Βαλδὰδ ὁ Σαυχαίων τύραννος, Σωφὰρ ὁ Μειναίων βασιλεὺς· καὶ παρεγένοντο πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁμοθυμαδὸν τοῦ παρακαλέσαι καὶ ἐπισκέψασθαι αὐτόν. |
| 2:12 | ἰδόντες δὲ αὐτὸν πόρρωθεν οὐκ ἐπέγνωσαν, καὶ βοήσαντες φωνῇ μεγάλῃ ἔκλαυσαν, ῥήξαντες ἕκαστος τὴν ἑαυτοῦ στολήν, καὶ καταπασάμενοι γῆν. |
| 2:13 | παρεκάθισαν αὐτῷ ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας καὶ ἑπτὰ νύκτας, καὶ οὐδεὶς αὐτῶν ἐλάλησεν· ἑώρων γὰρ τὴν πληγὴν δεινοὴν οὖσαν καὶ μεγάλην σφόδρα. |

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.
