| 40:1 | Ἔτι δὲ ὑπολαβὼν ὁ κύριος εἶπεν τῷ Ἰὼβ ἐκ τοῦ νέφους |
| 40:2 | Μή, ἀλλὰ ζῶσαι ὥσπερ ἀνὴρ τὴν ὀσφύν σου. ἐρωτήσω δέ σε, σὺ δέ μοι ἀπόκριναι· |
| 40:3 | μὴ ἀποποιοῦ μου τὸ κρίμα. οἴει δέ με ἄλλως σοι κεχρηματικέναι ἡ ἵνα ἀναφανῇς δίκαιος |
| 40:4 | ἣ βραχίων σοί ἐστιν κατὰ τοῦ κυρίου, ἢ φωνῇ κατʼ αὐτοῦ βροντᾶς; |
| 40:5 | ἀνάλαβε δὴ ὕψος καὶ δύναμιν. δόξαν δὲ καὶ τιμὴν ἀμφίεσαι. |
| 40:6 | ἀπόστειλον δὲ ἀγγέλους ὀργῇ. πᾶν δὲ ὑβριστὴν ταπείνωσον, |
| 40:7 | ὑπερήφανον δὲ σβέσον· σῆψον δὲ ἀσεβεῖς παραχρῆμα. |
| 40:8 | κρύψον δὲ εἰς γῆν ὁμοθυμαδόν, τὰ δὲ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν ἀτιμίας ἔμπλησον· |
| 40:9 | ὁμολογήσω ὅτι δύναται ἡ δεξιά σου σῶ |
| 40:10 | ἀλλὰ δὴ ἰδοὺ δὴ θηρία παρὰ σοί, χόρτον ἴσα βουσὶν ἐσθίουσιν. |
| 40:11 | ἰδοὸ δὴ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ ἐπʼ ὀσφύι. ἡ δὲ δύναμις ἐπʼ ὀμφαλοῦ γαστρός· |
| 40:12 | ἔστησεν οὐρὰν ὡς κυπάρισσον, τὰ δὲ νεῦρα αὐτοῦ συμπέπλεκται· |
| 40:13 | αἱ πλευραὶ αὐτοῦ πλευραὶ χάλκειαι, ἡ δὲ ῥάχις αὐτοῦ σίδηρος χυτός. |
| 40:14 | τοῦτ᾿ ἔστιν ἀρχὴ πλάσματος Κυρίου, πεποιημένον ἐνκαταπαίζεσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν ἀγγέλων αὐτοῦ. |
| 40:15 | ἐπελθὰλν δὲ ἐπʼ ὄρος ἀκρότομον ἐποίησεν χαρμονὴν τετράποσιν ἐν τῷ ταρτάρῳ· |
| 40:16 | ὑπὸ παντοδαπὰ δένδρα κοιμᾶται. παρὰ πάπυρον καὶ κάλαμον καὶ βούτομον· |
| 40:17 | σκιάζονται δὲ ἐν αὐτῷ δένδρα μεγάλα σὺν ῥαδάμνοις. καὶ κλῶνες ἀγροῦ. |
| 40:18 | ἐὰν γένηται πλήμμυρα. οὐ μὴ ασθηθῆ, πέποιθευ ὅτι προσκρούσει ὁ Ἰορδάνης εἰς τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ· |
| 40:19 | ἐν τῷ ὀφθαλμῷ αὐτοῦ δέξεται αὐτόν ἐνσκολιευόμενος τρήσει ῤῖνα; |
| 40:20 | ἄξεις δὲ δράκοντα ἐν ἀγκίστοῳ. περιθήσεις δὲ φορβεάν περὶ ῥἴνα αὐτοῦ; |
| 40:21 | εἰ δήσεις κρίκον ἐν τῷ μυκτῆρι αὐτοῦ, ψελίῳ δὲ τρυπήσεις τὸ χεῖλος αὐτοῦς |
| 40:22 | λαλήσει δέ σοι δεήσει, ἱκετηρίᾳ μαλακῶς |
| 40:23 | θήσεται διαθήκην μετὰ σοῦ; λήμψῃ δὲ αὐτὸν δοῦλον αἰώνιον; |
| 40:24 | παίξῃ δὲ ἐν αὐτῷ ὥσπερ ὀρνέῳ, ἢ δήσεις αὐτὸν ὥσπερ στρουθίον παιδίῳς |
| 40:25 | ἐνσιτοῦνται δὲ ἐν αὐτῷ ἔθνη, μεριτεύονται δὲ αὐτὸν Φοινίκων ἔθνη; |
| 40:26 | χῆν δὲ πλωτὸν συνελθὸν οὐ μὴ ἐνέγκαοσιν βύρσαν μίαν οὐρᾶς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν πλοίοις ἀλιέαων κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ. |
| 40:27 | ἐπιθήσει δὲ αὐτῷ χείρα, μνησθεὶς πόλεμον τὸν γινόμενον ἐν σώματι αὐτοῦ. |

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.
