| 9:1 | ῾γπολαβὼν δὲ Ἰὼβ λέγει |
| 9:2 | Ἐπ᾿ ἀληθεἰς οἶδα ὅτι οὕτως ἐστίν. πῶς γὰρ ἔσται δίκαιος βροτὸς παρὰ Κυρίῳ; |
| 9:3 | ἐὰν γὰρ βούληται κριθῆναι αὐτῷ, οὐ μὴ ὑπακούσῃ αὐτῷ, ἳνα μὴ ἀντείπῃ πρὸς ἔνα λόγον αὐτοῦ ἐκ χιλίων. |
| 9:4 | σοφὸς γάρ ἐστιν διανοίᾳ, κραταιός τε καὶ μέγας· τίς σκληρὸς γενόμενος ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ ὑπέμεινεν; |
| 9:5 | ὁ παλαιῶν ὄρη, οὐκ οἴδασιν, ὁ καταστρέφων αὐτὰ ὀργῇ· |
| 9:6 | ὁ σείων τὴν ὑπʼ οὐρανὸν ἐκ θεμελίων, οἱ δὲ στύλοι αὐτῆς σαλεύονται· |
| 9:7 | ὁ λέγων τῷ ἡλίῳ καὶ οὐκ ἀνατέλλει, κατὰ δὲ ἄστρων κατασφραγίζει, κατὰ δὲ ἀγγέλων αὐτοῦ σκόλιόν τι ἐπενόησεν, |
| 9:8 | ὁ τανύσας τὸν οὐρανὸν μόνος, περιπατῶν ὡς ἐπʼ ἐδάφους ἐπὶ θαλάσσης· |
| 9:9 | ὁ ποιῶν Πλειάδα καὶ Ἕσπερον καὶ Ἀρκτοῦρον καὶ ταμεῖα Νότου· |
| 9:10 | ὁ ποιῶν μεγάλα καὶ ἀνεξιχνίαστα, ἔνδοξά τε καὶ ἐξαίσια, ὦν οὐκ ἔστιν ἀριθμός. |
| 9:11 | ἐὸν ὑπερβῇ με. οὐ μὴ ἴδω· καὶ ἐὰν παρέλθῃ με, οὐδʼ ὣς ἔγνων. |
| 9:12 | ἐὰν ἀπαλλάξῃ, τίς ἀποστρέψεις ἤ τίς ἐρεῖ αὐτῷ Τί ἐποίησας; |
| 9:13 | αὐτὸς γὰρ ἀπέστραπται ὀργήν, ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ ἐκάμφθησαν κήτη τὰ ὑπʼ οὐρανόν. |
| 9:14 | ἐὸν δέ μου ὑπακούσεται, ἦ διακρινεῖ τὰ ῥήματά μου. |
| 9:15 | ἐὰν γὰρ δίκαιος, οὐκ εἰσακούσεταί μου, τοῦ κρίματος αὐτοῦ δεηθήσομαι· |
| 9:16 | ἐάν τε καλέσαν καὶ μὴ ὑπακούσῃ, οὐ πιστεύω ὅτι εἰσακήκοεν μου. |
| 9:17 | μὴ γνόφῳ με ἐκτρίψῃς πολλὰ δέ μου τὰ συντρίμματα πεποίηκεν διά κενῆς. |
| 9:18 | οὐκ ἐῷ γάρ με ἀναπνεῦσαι, ἐνέπλησεν δέ με πικρίας. |
| 9:19 | ὅτι μέν γὰρ ἰσχύει, κρατεῖ τίς οὗν κρίματι αὐτοῦ ἀντιστήσεται; |
| 9:20 | ἐὰν γὰρ ὦ δίκαιος, τὸ στόμα μου ἀσεβήσει· ἐάν τε ὦ ἄμεμπτος, σκολιὸς ἀποβήσομαι. |
| 9:21 | εἴτε γὰρ ἠσέβησα, οὐκ οἶδα τῆ ψυχῇ. πλὴν ἀφαιρεῖταί μου ἡ ζωή. |
| 9:22 | διὸ εἶπον Μέγαν καὶ δυνάστην ἀπολλύει ὀργή, |
| 9:23 | ὅτι φαῦλοι ἐν θανάτῳ ἐξαισίῳ, ἀλλὰ δίκαιοι καταγελῶνται· |
| 9:24 | παραδέδονται γὰρ εἰς χεῖρας ἀσεβοῦς. πρόσωπα κριτῶν αὐτῆς συνκαλύπτει· εἰ δὲ μὴ αὐτός ἐστιν, τίς ἐστιν; |
| 9:25 | ὁ δὲ βίος μού ἐστιν ἐλαφρώτερος δρομέως· ἀπέδρασαν, καὶ οὐκ εἴδοσαν. |
| 9:26 | ἢ καὶ ἔστιν ναυσὶν ἴχνος ὁδοῦ, ἢ ἀετοῦ πετομένου ζητοῦντος βοράν |
| 9:27 | ἐάν τε γὰρ εἴπω, ἐπιλήσομαι λαλῶν, συνκύψας τῷ προσώπῳ στενάξω. |
| 9:28 | σείομαι πᾶσιν τοῖς μέλεσιν, οἶδα γὰρ ὅτι οὐκ ἀθῷόν με ἐάσεις. |
| 9:29 | ἐπειδὴ δέ εἰμι ἀσεβῆς, διὰ τί οὐκ ἀπέθανον; |
| 9:30 | ἐὰν γὰρ ἀπολούσωμαι χιόνι, καὶ ἀποκαθάρωμαι χερσὶν καθαραῖς, |
| 9:31 | ἱκανῶς ἐν ῥύπῳ με ἔβαψας, ἐβδελύξατο δέ με ἡ στολή. |
| 9:32 | οὐ γὰρ εἶ ἄνθρωπος κατʼ ἐμὲ ᾧ ἀντικρινομαι, ἳνα ἔλθωμεν ὁμοθυμαδὸν εἰς κρίσιν. |
| 9:33 | εἲθε ἦν ὁ μεσίτης ἡμῶν καὶ ἐλέγχων καὶ διακούων ἀνὰ μέσον ἀμφοτέρων· |
| 9:34 | ἀπαλλαξάτω ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ τὴν ῥάβδον, ὁ δὲ φόβος αὐτοῦ μή με στροβείτω, |
| 9:35 | καὶ οὐ μὴ φοβηθῶ ἀλλὰ λαλήσω· οὐ γὰρ οὕτω συνεπίσταμαι, |

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.
