| 39:1 | εἰ ἔγνως καιρὸν τοκετοῦ τραγελάφων πέτρας, ἐφύλαξας δὲ ὠδίνας ἐλάφων; |
| 39:2 | ἠρίθμησας δέ μῆνας αὐτῶν πλήρεις τοκετοῦ, ὠδίνας δὲ αὐτῶν ἔλυσας |
| 39:3 | ἐξέθρεψας δὲ αὐτῶν τὰ παιδἰα ἔξω φόβου ὠδῖνας αὐτῶν ἐξαποστελεῖς; |
| 39:4 | ἀπορρήξουσιν τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν, πληθυνθήσονται ἐν γενήματι· ἐξελεύσονται, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀνακάμψουσιν αὐτοῖς. |
| 39:5 | τς δέ ἐστιν ὁ ἀφεὶς ὄνον ἄγριον ἐλεύθερον, δεσμοὺς δὲ αὐτοῦ τἰς ἔλοσεν; |
| 39:6 | ἐθέμην δὲ τὴν δίαιταν αὐτοῦ ἔρημον, καὶ τὰ σκηνώματα αὐτοῦ ἁλμυρίδα. |
| 39:7 | καταγελῶν πολυοχλίας πόλεως, μέμψιν δὲ φορολόγου οὐκ ἀκούων, |
| 39:8 | κατασκέψεται ὄρη, νομὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὀπίσω παντὸς χλωροῦ ζητεῖ. |
| 39:9 | βουλήσεται δέ σοι μονόκερως δουλεῦσαι, ἢ κοιμηθῆναι ἐπὶ φάτνης σους; |
| 39:10 | δήσεις δὲ ἐν ἱμᾶσι ζυγὸν αὐτοῦ, ἢ ἑλκύσει σου αὔλακας ἐν πεδίῳ; |
| 39:11 | πέποιθας δὲ ἐπʼ αὐτῷ, ὅτι πολλὴ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ, ἐπαφήσεις δὲ αὐτῷ τὰ ἔργα σου; |
| 39:12 | πιστεύσεις δὲ ὅτι ἀποδώσει σοι τὸν σπόρον, εἰσοίσει δέ σου τὸν ἄλωνα; |
| 39:13 | πτέρυξ τερπομένων, ἐὰν συλλάβῃ ἀσίδα καὶ νεσσά· |
| 39:14 | ὅτι ἀφήσει εἰς γῆν τὰ ᾠὰ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐπὶ χοῦν θάλψει |
| 39:15 | καὶ ἐπελάθοντο ὅτι ποὺς σκορπιεῖ καὶ θηρία ἀγροῦ καταπατήσει. |
| 39:16 | ἀπεσκλήρυνεν τὰ τέκνα ἑαυτῆς, ὥστε μὴ ἑαυτήν· εἰς κενὸν ἐκοπίασεν ἄνευ φόβου. |
| 39:17 | ὅτι κατεσιώπησεν αὐτῇ ὁ θεὸς σοφίαν, καὶ οὐκ ἐμέρισεν αὐτῇ ἐν τῇ συνέσει. |
| 39:18 | κατὰ καιρὸν ἐν ὕψει ὑψώσει, καταγελάσεται ἵππου καὶ τοῦ ἐπιβάτου αὐτοῦ. |
| 39:19 | ἢ σὺ περιέθηκας ἵππῳ δύναμιν. ἐνέδυσας δὲ τραχήλῳ αὐτοῦ φόβον; |
| 39:20 | περιέθηκας δὲ αὐτῷ πανοπλίαν, δόξαν δὲ στηθέων αὐτοῦ τόλμης |
| 39:21 | ἀνορύσσων ἐν πεδίῳ γαυρξ. ἐκπορεύεται δὲ εἰς πεδίον ἐν ἰσχύι |
| 39:22 | συναντῶν βασιλεῖ καταγελῶ, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποστραφῇ ἀπὸ σιδήρου. |
| 39:23 | ἐπʼ αὐτῷ γαυριᾷ τόξον καὶ μάχαιρα. |
| 39:24 | καὶ ὀργῇ ἀφανιεῖ τὴν γῆν· καὶ οὐ μὴ πιστεύσῃ ἕως ἂν σημάνῃ σάλπιγξ. |
| 39:25 | σάλπιγγος δέ σημαινούσης λέγει Εὖγε· πόρρωθεν δὲ ὀσφραίνεται πολέμου σὺν ἄλματι καὶ κραυγῇ |
| 39:26 | ἐκ δὲ τῆς σῆς ἐπιστήμης ἔστηκεν ἱέραξ, ἀναπετάσας τὰς πτέρυγας ἀκίνητος, καθορῶν τὰ πρὸς νότον |
| 39:27 | ἐπὶ δὲ σῷ προστάγματι ὑψοῦται ἀετός, γὺψ δὲ ἐπὶ νοσσιᾶς αὐτου (28)καθεσθεὶς αὐλἰζεται, |
| 39:28 | ἐπ᾿ ἐξοχῇ πέτρας καὶ ἀποκρύφω; |
| 39:29 | ἐκεῖσε ὢν ζητεῖ τὰ σῖτα, πόρρωθεν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ σκοπεύουσιν· |
| 39:30 | νεοσσοὶ δὲ αὐτοῦ φύρονται ἐν αἵματι, οὗ δ᾿ ἂν ὦσι τεθνεῶτες παραχρῆμα εὑρίσκονται. |
| 39:31 | Καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Κύριος ὁ θεὸς τῷ Ἰὼβ καὶ εἶπεν |
| 39:32 | Μὴ κρίσιν μετὰ Ἱκανοῦ ἐκκλινεῖς ἐλέγχων δὲ θεὸν ἀποκριθήσεται αὐτήν; |
| 39:33 | Ὑπολαβὼν δὲ Ἰὼβ λέγει τῷ κυρίῳ |
| 39:34 | Τί ἔτι ἐγὼ κρίνομαι, νουθετούμενος καὶ ἐλέγχων Κύριων. ἀκούων τοιαῦτα οὐθὲν ὤν; ἐγὼ δὲ τίνα ἀπόκρισιν δώσω πρὸς ταῦτα; χεῖρα θήσω ἐπὶ στόματί μου. |
| 39:35 | ἅπαξ λελάληκα, ἐπὶ δὲ τῷ δευτέρῳ οὐ προσθήσω. |

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.
