| 24:1 | διὰ τί δὲ Κύριον ἔλαθον ὦραι, |
| 24:2 | ἀσεβεῖς δὲ ὅριον ὑπερέβησαν, ποίμνιον σὺν ποιμένι ἁρπάσαντες ; |
| 24:3 | ὑποζύγιον ὀρφανῶν ἀπήγαγον, καὶ βοῦν χήρας ἠνεχύρασαν. |
| 24:4 | ἐξέκλιναν ἀδυνάτους ἐξ ὁδοῦ δικαίας, ὁμοθυμαδὸν δὲ ἐκρύβησαν πρᾳεῖς γῆς. |
| 24:5 | ἀπέβησαν δὲ ὥσπερ ὄνοι ἐν ἀγρῷ, ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ ἐξελθόντες τὴν ἑαυτῶν τάξιν· ἡδύνθη αὐτῷ ἄρτος εἰς νεωτέρους. |
| 24:6 | ἀγρὸν πρὸ ὥρας οὐκ αὐτῶν ὄντα ἐθέρισαν· ἀδύνατοι ἀμπελῶνας ἀσεβῶν ἀμισθὶ καὶ ἀσιτὶ ἠργάσαντο. |
| 24:7 | ⁷γυμνοὺς πολλοὺς ἐκοίμισαν ἄνευ ἱματίων, ἀμφίασιν δὲ ψυχῆς αὐτῶν ἀφείλαντο· |
| 24:8 | ἀπὸ ψεκάδων ὀρέων ὑγραίνονται, παρὰ τὸ μὴ ἔχειν ἑαυτοὺς σκέ πην πέτραν περιεβάλοντο. |
| 24:9 | ἥρπασαν ὀρφανὸν ἀπὸ μαστοῦ, ἐκπεπτωκότα δὴ ἐταπείνωσαν. |
| 24:10 | γυμνοὺς δὲ ἐκοίμισαν ἀδίκως, πεινώντων δὲ τὸν ψωμὸν ἀφείλαντο. |
| 24:11 | ἐν στενοῖς ἀδίκως ἐνήδρευσαν, ὁδὸν δὲ δικαίων οὐκ ᾔδεισαν. |
| 24:12 | οἱ ἐκ πόλεως καὶ σἴκων ἰδίων ἐξεβάλλοντο, ψυχὴ δὲ νηπίων ἐστέναξεν μέγα. |
| 24:13 | αὐτὸς δὲ διὰ τί τούτων ἐπισκοπὴν οὐ πεποίηται ; (1³)ἐπὶ γῆς ὄντων αὐτῶν καὶ οὐκ ἐπέγνωσαν, ὁδὸν δὲ δικαιοσύνης οὐκ ᾔδεισαν, οὐδὲ ἀτραποὺς αὐτῶν ἐπορεύθησαν. |
| 24:14 | γνοὺς δὲ αὐτῶν τὰ ἔργα παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς εἰς σκότος, καὶ νυκτὸς ἔσται ὡς κλέπτης. |
| 24:15 | καὶ· ὀφθαλμὸς μοιχοῦ ἐφύλαξεν σκότος, λέγων Οὐ προσνοήσει με ὀφθαλμός, καὶ ἀποκρυβὴν προσώπου ἔθετο. |
| 24:16 | διώρυξεν ἐν σκότει οἰκίας· ἡμέρας ἐσφράγισαν ἑαυτούς, οὐκ ἐπέγνωσαν φῶς· |
| 24:17 | ὅτι ὁμοθυμαδὸν αὐτοῖς τὸ πρωὶ σκιὰ θανάτου, ὅτι ἐπιγνώσεται τάραχος σκιᾶς θανάτου. |
| 24:18 | ἐλαφρός ἐστιν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον ὕδατος· καταραθείη ἡ μερὶς αὐτῶν ἐπὶ γῆς, |
| 24:19 | ἀναφανείη δὲ τὰ φυτὰ αὐτῶν 19ἐπὶ γῆς ξηρά· ἀγκαλίδα γὰρ ὀρφανῶν ἥρπασαν. |
| 24:20 | εἶτ᾿ ἀνεμνήσθη αὐτοῦ ἡ ἁμαρτία· ὥσπερ δέ ὁμίχηλ δρόσου ἀφανὴς ἐγένετο· ἀποδοθείη δε αὐτῷ ἃ ἔπραξεν, συντριβείη δὲ πᾶς ἄδικος ἴσα ξύλῳ ἀνιάτῳ. |
| 24:21 | στεῖραν δὲ οὐκ εὖ ἐποίησεν, καὶ ἀγύναιον οὐκ ἠλέησεν. |
| 24:22 | Θυμῷ δὲ κατέστρεψεν ἀδυνάτους. ἀναστὰς τοιυαροῦν οὐ μὴ πισεύσῃ κατὰ τῆς ἑαυτοῦ ζωῆς· |
| 24:23 | μαλακισθεὶς μὴ ἐλπιζέτω ὑγιασθῆναι, ἀλλὰ πεσεῖται ωόσῳ. |
| 24:24 | πολλοὺς γὰρ έκάκωσεν τὸ ὕψωμα αὐτοῦ· ἐμαράνθη σὲ ὥσπερ μολόχη ἐν καύματι, ἢ ὥσπερ στάχυς ἀπὸ καλάμης αὐτόματος ἀποπεσών. |
| 24:25 | εἰ σὲ μή, τίς ἐστιν ὁ φάμενος ψευδῆ με λέγειν, καὶ Θήσει εὶς οὑδὲν τὰ ῥήματά μου; |

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.
