27:1Ἔτι δὲ προσθεὶς Ἰὼβ εἶπεν τῷ προομίῳ
27:2Ζῇ ὁ θεὸς ὃς οὕτω με κέκρικεν, καὶ ὁ παντοκράτωρ ὁ πικράνας μου τὴν ψυχήν,
27:3εἰ μὴν ἔτι τῆς πνοῆς μου ἐνούσης, πνεῦμα δὲ θεῖον τὸ περιόν μοι ἐν ῥινί,
27:4μὴ λαλήσειν τὰ χείλη μου ἄνομα, οὐδὲ ἡ ψυχή μου μελετήσει ἄδικα.
27:5μή μοι εἴη δικαίους ὑμᾶς ἀποφῆναι ἕως ἂν ἀποθάνω, οὐ γὰρ ἀπαλλάξω μου τὴν ἀκακίαν·
27:6δικαιοσύνῃ δέ προσέχων οὐ μὴ προῶμα, οὐ γὰρ σύνοιδα ἐμαυπῷ ἄτοπα πράξας.
27:7οὐ μὴν δὲ ἀλλὰ εἴησαν οἱ ἐχθροί μου ὥσπερ ἡ καταστροφὴ τῶν ἀσεβῶν, καὶ οἱ ἐπʼ ἐμὲ ἐπανιστανόμενοι ὥσπερ ἡ ἀπώλεια τῶν παρανόμων.
27:8καὶ τίς γάρ ἐστιν ἐλπὶς ἀσεβεῖ ὅτι ἐπέχεις ; πεποιθὼς ἐπὶ κύριον ἆρα σωθήσεται ;
27:9ἢ τὴν δέησιν αὐτοῦ εἰσακούσεται ὁ θεός; ἢ ἐπελθούσης αὐτῷ ἀνάγκης
27:10μὴ ἔχει τινὰ παρρησίαν ἔναντι αὐτοῦ; ἢ ὡς ἐπικαλεσαμένου αὐτοῦ εἰσακούσεται αὐτοῦ;
27:11ἀλλὰ δὴ ἀναγγελῶ ὑμῖν τί ἐστιν ἐν χειρὶ Κυρίου, ἅ ἐστιν παρὰ Παντοκράτορι οὐ ψεύσομαι.
27:12ἰδοὺ πάντες οἴδατε ὅτι κενὰ κενοῖς ἐπιβάλλετε.
27:13αὕτη ἡ μερὶς ἀνθρώπου ἀσεβοῦς παρὰ Κυρίου, κτῆμα δέ δυναστῶν ἐλεύσεται παρὰ Παντοκράτορος ἐπʼ αὐτούς.
27:14ἐὸν δὲ πολλοὶ γένωνται οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν, εἰς σφαγὴν ἔσονται· ἐὰν δὲ καὶ ἀνδρωθῶσιν, προσαιτήσουσιν·
27:15χήρας δὲ αὐτῶν οὐθεὶς ἐλεήσει.
27:16ἐὰν συναγάγῃ ὥσπερ γῆν ἀργύριον, ἴσα δὲ πηλῷ ἑτοιμάσῃ χρυσίον,
27:17ταῦτα πάντα δίκαιοι περιποιήσονται, τὰ δέ χρήματα αὐτοῦ ἀληθινοὶ καθέξουσιν.
27:18ἀπέβη δὲ ὁ οἶκος αὐτοῦ ὅσπερ σῆτες καὶ ὅσπερ ἀράχνη.
27:19πλούσιος κοιμηθεὶς καὶ οὐ προσθήσει, ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ διήνοιξεν καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν.
27:20συνήντησαν αὐτῷ ὥσπερ ὕδωρ αἱ ὀδύναι, νυκτὶ δὲ ὑφείλατο αὐτὸν γνόφος·
27:21ἀναλήμψεται δὲ αὐτὸν καύσων καὶ ἀπελεύσεται. καὶ λικμήσει αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ.
27:22καὶ ἐπιρίψει αὐτὸν καὶ οὐ φείσεται· ἐκ χειρὸς αὐτοῦ φυγῇ φεύξεται
27:23κροτήσει ἐπʼ αὐτοῦ χεῖρας αὐτῶν, καὶ συριεῖ αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ.

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.
