6:1	Καὶ ἐποίησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον κυρίου, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοὺς κύριος ἐν χειρὶ Μαδιὰμ ἑπτὰ ἔτη.
6:2	καὶ ἴσχυσεν χεὶρ Μαδιὰμ ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἐποίησαν ἑαυτοῖς οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ προσώπου Μαδιὰμ τὰς τρυμαλιὰς τὰς ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσιν καὶ τὰ σπήλαια καὶ τὰ κρεμαστά.
6:3	καὶ ἐγένετο ἐὰν ἔσπειραν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ, Μαδιὰμ καὶ Ἀμαλήκ, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ ἀνατολῶν συνανέβαινον αὐτοῖς· καὶ παρενέβαλον εἰς αὐτούς,
6:4	καὶ κατέφθειραν τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτῶν ἴνως ἐλθεῖν εἰς Γάζαν, καὶ οὐ κατέλιπον ὑπόστασιν ζωῆς ἐν τῇ γῇ Ἰσραὴλ οὐδὲ ἐν τοῖς ποιμνίοις ταῦρον καὶ ὄνον.
6:5	ὅτι αὐτοὶ καὶ αἱ κτήσεις αὐτῶν ἀνέβαινον, καὶ αἱ σκηναὶ αὐτῶν παρεγίνοντο, καθὼς ἀκρὶς εἰς πλῆθος, καὶ αὐτοῖς καὶ τοῖς καμήλοις αὐτῶν οὐκ ἦν ἀριθμός· καὶ εἰς τὴν γῆν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ διέφθειρον αὐτήν,
6:6	καὶ ἐπτώχευσεν ὴλ σφόδρα ἀπὸ προσώπου Μαδιάμ.
6:7	Καὶ ἐβόησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς κύριον ἀπὸ προσώπου Μαδιάμ.
6:8	καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν κύριος ἄνδρα προφήτην πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς τάδε λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ Ἐγώ εἰμι ὃς ἀνήγαγον ὑμᾶς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου, καὶ ἐξήγαγον ὑμᾶς ἐξ οἴκου δουλίας ὑμῶν,
6:9	καὶ ἐρρυσάμην ὑμᾶς ἐκ χειρὸς Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς πάντων τῶν θλιβόντων ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἐξέβαλον αὐτοὺς ἐκ προσώπου ὑμῶν, καὶ ἔδωκα ὑμῖν τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν·
6:10	καὶ εἶπα ὑμῖν Ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν, οὐ φοβηθήσεσθε τοὺς θεοὺς τοῦ Ἀμορραίου, ἐν οἷς ὑμεῖς καθήσεσθε ἐν τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν· καὶ οὐκ εἰσηκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς μου.
6:11	Καὶ ἦλθεν ἄγγελος Κυρίου καὶ ἐκάθισεν ὑπὸ τὴν τερέμινθον τὴν ἐν Ἐφραθὰ ἐν τῇ Ἰωὰς πατρὸς τοῦ ’Eσδρεί· καὶ Γεδεὼν υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ῥαβδίζων σῖτον ἐν ληνῷ εἰς ἐκφυγεῖν ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ Μαδιάμ.
6:12	καὶ ὤφθη αὐτῷ ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν Κύριος μετὰ σοῦ, ἰσχυρὸς τῶν δυνάμεων.
6:13	καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν Γεδεών Ἐν ἐμοί, κύριέ μου, καὶ εἰ ἔστιν Κύριος μεθ’ ἡμῶν, εἰς τί εὗρεν ἡμᾶς τὰ κακὰ ταῦτα; καὶ ποῦ ἐστιν πάντα τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ ἃ διηγήσαντο ἡμῖν οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν λέγοντες Μὴ οὐχὶ ἐξ Αἰγύπτου ἀνήγαγεν ἡμᾶς Κύριος; καὶ νῦν ἐξέρριψεν ἡμᾶς καὶ ἔδωκεν ἡμᾶς ἐν χειρὶ Μαδιάμ.
6:14	καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ ἄγγελος κυρίου καὶ εἶπεν Πορεύου ἐν ἰσχύι σου ταύτῃ, καὶ σώσεις τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ χειρὸς Μαδιάμ·
6:15	ἰδοὺ ἐξαπέστειλά σε. καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν Γεδεών Ἐν ἐμοί, κύριέ μου, ἐν τίνι σώσω τὸν Ἰ ἰδοὺ ἡ χιλιάς μου ἠσθένησεν ἐν Μανασσή, καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ἐν οἴκῳ πατρός μου.
6:16	καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ ἄγγελος Τυρίου κύριος ἔσται μετὰ σοῦ, καὶ πατάξεις τὴν Μαδιὰμ ὡσεὶ ἄνδρα ἕνα.
6:17	καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν Γεδεών Εἰ δὲ εὗρον ἔλεος ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου καὶ ποιήσεις μοι σήμερον πᾶν ὅ τι ἐλάλησας μετ’ ἐμοῦ,
6:18	μὴ χωρισθῇς ἐντεῦθεν ἕως τοῦ ἐλθεῖν με πρὸς σέ· καὶ ἐξοίσω τὴν θυσίαν καὶ θήσω ἐνώπιόν σου. καὶ εἶπεν Ἐγώ εἰμι καθίσομαι ἕως τοῦ ἐπιστρέψαι σε.
6:19	καὶ Γεδεὼν εἰσῆλθεν καὶ ἐποίησεν ἔριφον αἰγῶν καὶ οἰφὶ ἀλεύρου, ἄζυμα, καὶ τὰ κρέα ἔθηκεν ἐν τῷ κοφίνῳ, καὶ τὸν ζωμὸν ἔβαλεν ἐν τῇ χύτρᾳ, καὶ ἐξήνεγκεν αὐτὰ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὑπὸ τὴν τερέμινθον· καὶ προσήηισεν.
6:20	καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ ἄγγελος τοῦ θεοῦ λάβε τὰ κρέα καὶ τὰ ἄζυμα καὶ θὲς πρὸς τὴν πέτραν ἐκείνην, καὶ τὸν ζωμὸν ἐχόμενα ἔκχεε. καὶ ἐποίησεν οὕτως.
6:21	καὶ ἐξέτεινεν ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου τὸ ἄκρον τῆς ῥάβδου τῆς ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἥψατο τῶν κρεῶν καὶ τῶν ἀζύμων, καὶ ἀνέβη πῦρ ἐκ τῆς πέτρας καὶ κατέφαγεν τὰ κρέα καὶ τοὺς ἀζύμους· καὶ ὁ ἄγγελος κυρίου ἐπορεύθη ἀπὸ ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτοῦ.
6:22	καὶ εἶδεν Γεδεὼν ὅτι ἄγγελος κυρίου οὗτός ἐστιν· καὶ εἶπεν Γεδεών Ἆ ἆ, κύριέ μου κύριε, ὅτι εἶδον ἄηελον κυρίου πρόσωπον πρόσωπον.
6:23	καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ κύριος Εἰρήνη σοι, μὴ φοβοῦ, οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃς.
6:24	καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐκεῖ Γεδεὼν θυσιαστήριον τῷ κυρίῳ, καὶ ἐπεκάλεσεν αὐτῷ Εἰρήνη κυρίου, ἴως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης ἔτι αὐτοῦ ὄντος ἐν Ἐφραθὰ πατρὸς τοῦ Ἐσδρεί.
6:25	Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ κύριος λάβε τόν μόσχον τὸν ταῦρον δς ἐστιν τῷ πατρί σου καὶ μόσχον δεύτερον ἑπταετῆ, καὶ καθελεῖς τὸ θυσιαστήριον τοῦ Βάαλ ὅ ἐστιν τῷ πατρί σου, καὶ τὸ ἄλσος τὸ ἐπ’ αὐτὸ ὀλεθρεύσεις·
6:26	καὶ καὶ οἰκοδομήσεις θυσιαστήριον τῷ κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ σου ἐπὶ κορυφὴν τοῦ Μαουὲκ τούτου ἐν τῇ παρατάξει, καὶ λήμψῃ τὸν μόσχον τὸν δεύτερον καὶ ἀνοίσεις ὁλοκαύτωμα ἐν τοῖς ξύλοις τοῦ ἄλσους οὗ ἐξολεθρεύσεις.
6:27	καὶ ἔλαβεν Γεδεὼν δέκα ἄνδρας ἀπὸ τῶν δούλων ἑαυτοῦ, καὶ ἐποίησεν ὃν τρόπον ἐλάλησεν πρὸς αὐτὸν κύριος· καὶ ἐγενήθη ὡς ἐφοβήθη τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς ἄνδρας τῆς . πόλεως τοῦ ποιῆσαι(ἡμέρας,) καὶ ἐποίησεν νυκτός.
6:28	καὶ ὤρθρισαν οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς πόλεως τὸ πρωί, καὶ ἰδοὺ καθῄρητο τὸ θυσιαστήριον τοῦ Βάαλ, καὶ τὸ ἄλσος τὸ ἐπ’ αὐτῷ ὠλέθρευτο· καὶ εἰν τὸν μόσχον τὸν δεύτερον, ὃν ἀνήνεγκεν ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ ᾠκοδομημένον.
6:29	καὶ εἶπεν ἀνὴρ πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ τίς ἐποίησεν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο; καὶ ἐπεζήτησαν καὶ ἠρεύνησαν, καὶ ἔγνωσαν ὅτι Γεδεὼν υἱὸς Ἰωὰς ἐποίησεν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο.
6:30	καὶ εἶπον οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς πόλεως πρὸς ἰωάς Ἐξένεγκε τὸν υἱόν σου καὶ ἀποθανέτω, ὅτι καθεῖλεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον τοῦ Βάαλ, καὶ ὅτι ὠλέθρευσεν τὸ ἄλσος τὸ ἐπ’ αὐτῷ.
6:31	καὶ εἶπεν Γεδεὼν υἱὸς Ἰωὰς τοῖς ἀνδράσιν πᾶσιν οἳ ἐπανέστησαν αὐτῷ Μὴ ὑμεῖς νῦν δικάζεσθε ὑπὲρ τοῦ Βάαλ; ἢ ὑμεῖς σώσετε αὐτόν; ὃς • ἐὰν δικάσηται αὐτῷ, θανατωθήτω ἕως πρωί· εἰ θεός ἐστιν, δικαζέσθω αὐτῷ, ὅτι καθεῖλεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον αὐτοῦ.
6:32	καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ Ἀρβάαλ, λέγων Δικασάσθω ἐν αὐτῶ ὁ Βάαλ, ὅτι καθῃρέθη τὸ θυσιαστήριον αὐτοῦ.
6:33	Καὶ πᾶσα Μαδιὰμ καὶ καὶ υἱοὶ ἀνατολῶν συνήχθησαν ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό, καὶ παρενέβαον ἐν κοιλάδι Ἐζερεἑλ.
6:34	καὶ πνεῦμα κυρίου ἐνεδυνάμωσεν τὸν Γεδεών, καὶ ἐσάλπισεν ἐν κερατίνῃ, καὶ ἐφοβήθη Ἀβιέζερ ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ.
6:35	καὶ ἀγγέλους ἀπέστειλεν εἰς πάντα Μανασσὴ καὶ ἐν ’ καὶ ἐν Σαβουλὼν καὶ Νεφθαλεί, καὶ ἀνέβη εἰς συνάντησιν
6:36	καὶ εἶπεν Γεδεὼν πρὸς τὸν θεόν Εἰ σὺ σώζεις ἐν χειρί μου τὸν Ἰσραὴλ καθὼς ἐλάλησας,
6:37	ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ τίθημι τὸν πόκον τοῦ ἐρίου ἐν τῇ ἅλωνι· ἐὰν δρόσος γένηται ἐπὶ τὸν πόκον μόνον καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ξηρασία, γνώσομαι ὅτι σώσεις ἐν χειρί μου τὸν Ἰσραὴλ καθὼς ἐλάλησας.
6:38	καὶ ἐγένετο οὕτως· καὶ ὤρθρισεν τῇ ἐπαύριον καὶ ἐξεπίασεν τὸν πόκον, καὶ ἔσταξεν δρόσος ἀπὸ τοῦ πόκου, πλήρης λεκάνη ὕδατος.
6:39	καὶ εἶπεν Γεδεὼν πρὸς τὸν θεόν Μὴ δὴ ὀργισθήτω ὁ θυμός σου ἐν ἐμοί, καὶ λαλήσω ἔτι ἅπαξ· πειράσω δὲ καί γε ἔτι ἅπαξ ἐν τῷ πόκῳ, καὶ γενέσθω ἡ ξηρασία ἐπὶ τὸν πόκον μόνον, καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν γενηθήτω δρόσος.
6:40	καὶ ἐποίησεν οὕτως ὁ θεὸς ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ· καὶ ἐγένετο ξηρασία ἐπὶ τὸν πόκον VII

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.
