11:1	Καὶ Ἰερθάε ὁ Γαλααδείτης ἐπηρμένος δυνάμει· καὶ αὐτὸς υἱὸς γυναικὸς πόρνης, ἣ ἐγέννησεν τῷ Γαλαὰδ τὸν Ἰεφθάε.
11:2	καὶ ἔτεκεν ἡ γυνὴ Γαλαὰδ αὐτῷ υἱούς· καὶ ἡδρύνθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ τῆς γυναικός, καὶ ἐξέβαλον τὸν Ἰεφθάε καὶ εἶπον αὐτῷ Οὑ κληρονομήσεις ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν, ὅτι υἱὸς γυναικὸς ἑταίρας σύ.
11:3	καὶ ἔφυγεν Ἰεφθάε ἀπὸ προσώπου ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ᾤκησεν ἐν γῇ Τώβ· καὶ συνεστραφησαν πρὸς Ἰεφθάε ἄνδρες κενοί, καὶ ἐξῆλθον μετ’ αὐτοῦ.
11:4	Καὶ ἐγένετο ἡνίκα παρετάξαντο οἱ υἱοὶ Ἄμμων μετὰ Ἰσραήλ,
11:5	καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν οἱ πρεσβύτεροι Γαλαὰδ λαβεῖν τὸν Ἰεφθάε ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς Τώβ·
11:6	καὶ εἶπαν τῷ Ἰεφθάε Δεῦρο καὶ ἔσῃ ἡμὶν εἰς ἀρχηγόν, καὶ παραταξώμεθα πρὸς υἱοὺς Ἀμμών.
11:7	καὶ εἶπεν Ἰεφθάε τοῖς πρεσβυτέροις Γαλαάδ Οὐχὶ ὑμεῖς ἐμισήσατέ με, καὶ ἐξεβάλετέ με ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ πατρός μου, καἱ ἐξαπεστείλατέ με ἀφ᾿ ὑμῶν; καὶ διὰ τί ἤλθατε πρὸς μὲ νῦν ἡνίκα χρῄζετε;
11:8	καὶ εἶπαν οἱ πρεσβύτεροι Γαλαὰδ πρὸς Ἰεφθάε Διὰ τοῦτο νῦν ἐπεστρέψαμεν πρὸς σέ, καὶ πορεύση μεθ’ ἡμῶν καὶ παρατάξῃ πρὸς υἱοὺς Ἄμμων· καὶ ἔσῃ ἡμῖν εἰς ἄρχοντα, πᾶσιν τοῖς οἰκοῦσιν Γαλαάδ.
11:9	καὶ εἶπεν Ἰεφθάε πρὸς τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους Γαλαάδ Εἰ ἐπιστρέφετέ με ὑμεῖς παρατάξασθαι ἐν υἱοῖς Ἄμμων καὶ παραδῷ κύριος αὐτοὺς ἐνώπιον ἐμοῦ, καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι ὑμῖν εἰς ἄρχοντα;
11:10	καὶ εἶπαν οἱ πρεσβύτεροι Γαλαὰδ πρὸς Ἰεφθάε κύριος ἔστω ἀκούων ἀνὰ μέσον ἡμῶν εἰ μὴ κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμά σου οὕτως ποιήσομεν.
11:11	καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἰεφθάε μετὰ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων Γαλαάδ, καὶ ἔθηκαν αὐτὸν ὁ λαὸς ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς εἰς κεφαλὴν καὶ εἰς ἀπχηγόν· καὶ ἐλάλησεν Ἰεφθάε τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ πάντας ἐνώπιον κυρίου ἐν Μασσηφά.
11:12	Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰεφθάε ἀγγέλους πρὸς βασιλέα υἱῶν Ἄμμων λέγων Τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί, ὅτι ἦλθες πρὸς μὲ τοῦ παρατάξασθαι ἐν τῇ γῆ μου;
11:13	καὶ εἶπεν βασιλεὺς υἱῶν Ἄμμων πρὸς τοὺς ἀγγέλους Ἰεφθάε Ὅτι ἔλαβεν Ἰσραὴλ τὴν γῆν μου ἐν τῷ ἀναβαίνειν αὐτὸν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου ἀπὸ Ἀρνῶν καὶ ἕως Ἰαβὸκ καὶ ἕως τοῦ Ἰορδάνου· καὶ νῦν ἐπίστρεψον ἀυτὰς ἐν εἰρήνη, καὶ πορεύσομαι.
11:14	καὶ προσέθηκεν ἔτι Ἰεφθάε καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἀγγέλους πρὸς βασιλέα υἱῶν Ἄμμων,
11:15	καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Οὕτω λέγει Ἰεφθάε Οὐκ ἔλαβεν Ἰσραὴλ τὴν γῆν Μωὰβ καὶ τὴν γῆν υἱῶν Ἄμμων.
11:16	ὅτι ἐν τῷ ἀναβαίνειν αὐτοὺς ἐξ Αἰγύπτου ἐπορεύθη Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῆ ἐρήμῳ ἕως θαλάσσης Σείφ, καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Καδής.
11:17	καὶ καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰσραὴλ ἀγγέλους πρὸς βασιλέα Ἐδὼμ λέγων Παρελεύσομαι δὴ ἐν τῇ γῇ σου· καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσεν βασιλεὺς Ἐδώμ·
11:18	καὶ πρὸς βασιλέα Μωὰβ ἀπέστειλεν, καὶ οὐκ εὐδόκησεν. καὶ ἐκάθισεν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν Καδής, καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, καὶ ἐκύκλωκαὶ σεν τὴν γῆν Ἐδὼμ καὶ τὴν γῆν Μωάβ· καὶ ἦλθεν ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν ἡλίου τῇ γῇ Μωὰβ καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν πέραν Ἀρνῶν, καὶ οὐκ εἰσῆλθεν ἐν ὁρίοις Μωάβ, ὅτι Ἀρνῶν ὅριον Μωάβ.
11:19	καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἀλλέλους πρὸς Σηὼν βασιλέα τοῦ Ἀμορραίου βασιλέα Εσεβών, αὐτῷ Ἰσραήλ Παρέλθωμεν δὴ ἐν τῇ γῇ σου ἕως τοῦ τόπου
11:20	καὶ οὐκ ἐνεπίστευσεν Σηὼν τῷ Ἰσραὴλ παρελθεῖν ἐν ὁρίῳ αὐτοῦ· καὶ συνῆξεν Σηὼν τὸν πάντα λαὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ παρενέβαλον εἰς Ἰάσα, καὶ παρετάξατο πρὸς Ἰσραήλ.
11:21	καὶ παρέδωκεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ τὸν Σηὼν καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν χειρὶ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτόν· καὶ ἐκληρονόμησεν Ἰσραὴλ τὴν πᾶσαν γῆν τοῦ Ἀμορραίου τοῦ κατοικοῦντος τὴν γῆν ἐκείνην,
11:22	ἀπὸ Ἀρνῶν καὶ ἕως τοῦ Ἰαβὸκ καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρήμου ἕως τοῦ Ἰορδάνου.
11:23	καὶ νῦν Κύριος ὁ θεός Ἰσραὴλ ἐξῆρεν τὸν Ἀμορραῖον ὀπὸ προσώπου λαοῦ αὐτοῦ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ σὺ κληρονομήσεις αὐτόν ;
11:24	οὐχὶ ἃ ἐὰν κληρονομήσει σε Ἁμὼς ὁ θεός σου, αὐτὰ κληρονομήσεις; καὶ τοὺς πάντας οὓς ἐξῆρεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἀπὸ προσώπου ἡμῶν, αὐτοὺς κληρονομήσομεν.
11:25	καὶ νῦν μὴ ἐν ἀγαθῷ ἀγαθώτερος σὺ ὑπὲρ Βαλὰκ υἱὸν Σεπφὼρ βασιλέα Μωάβ; μὴ μαχόμενος ἐμαχέσ ατο μετὰ Ἰσραὴλ ἢ πολεμῶν ἐπολέμησεν αὐτὸν
11:26	ἐν τῷ οἰκῆσαι ἐν Ἑσεβὼν καὶ ἐν τοῖς ὁρίοις αὐτῆς καὶ ἐν γῇ Ἀροὴρ καὶ ἐν τοῖς ὁρίοις αὐτῆς καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν ταῖς παρὰ τὸν Ἰορδάνην τριακόσια ἔτη ; καὶ διὰ τί οὐκ ἐρρύσω αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ;
11:27	καὶ νῦν ἐγώ εἰμι οὐχ ἥμαρτόν σοι, καὶ σύ ποιεῖς μετ’ ἐμοῦ πονηρίαν τοῦ παρατάξασθαι ἐν ἐμοί· κρίναι κύριος κρίνων σήμερον ἀνὰ μέσον υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον υἱῶν ’
11:28	καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσεν βασιλεὺς υἱῶν Ἄμμων τῶν λόγων λόγων ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτόν.
11:29	Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ Ἰεφθάε Κθρίου, καὶ παρῆλθεν τὸν Γαλαὰδ καὶ τὸν Μανασσή, καὶ παρῆλθεν τὴν σκοπιὰν Γαλαὰδ εἰς τὸ πέραν υἱῶν Ἄμμων.
11:30	καὶ ηὔξατο Ιεφθάε εὐχὴν τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ εἶπεν Ἐὰν διδοὺς δῷς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἄμμων ἐν τῇ χειρί μου,
11:31	καὶ ἔσται ὁ ἐκπορευόμενος ὃς ἐὰν ἐξέλθῃ ἀπὸ τῆς θύρας τοῦ οἴκου μου εἰς συνάντησίν μου ἐν τῷ ἐπιστρέφειν με ἐν εἰρήνη ἀπὸ υἱῶν Ἀμμών, καὶ ἔσται τῶ κυρίῳ· ἀνοίσω αὐτὸν ὁλοκαύτωμα.
11:32	καὶ παρῆλθεν Ἰεφθάε πρὸς υἱοὺς Ἄμμων παρατάξασθαι πρὸς αὐτούς, καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς κύριος ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ.
11:33	καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ Ἀροὴρ ἕως θεῖν ἄχρις Ἀρνῶν, ἐν ἀριθμῷ ἐν κοσι πόλεις, καὶ ἕως Ἐρελχαρμείν, πληγὴν μεγάλην σφόδρα· καὶ συνεστάλησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἀμμὼν ἀπὸ προσώπου υἱῶν Ἰσραάλ.
11:34	Καὶ ἦλθεν Ἰεφθάε εἰς Μασσηφὰ εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἡ θυγάτηρ αὐτοῦ ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς ὑπάντησιν ἐν τυμπάνοις καὶ χοροῖς· καὶ ἢν αὕτη μονογενής, οὐκ ἦν αὐτῷ ἕτερος υἱὸς ἢ θυγάτηρ. τὸ
11:35	καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἶδεν αὐτὴν αὐτός, διέρρηξεν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν Ἆ ἆ θυγάτηρ μου, ταραχῇ ἐτάραξάς με, καὶ σὺ ἦς ἐν τῷ ταράχῳ μου· καὶ ἐγώ εἰμι ἤνοιξα κατὰ σοῦ τὸ στόμα μου πρὸς Κύριον, καὶ οὐ δυνήσομαι ἐπιστρέψαι.
11:36	ἡ δὲ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν Πάτερ, ἤνοιξας τὸ στόμα σου πρὸς κύριον· ποίησόν μοι ὃν τρόπον ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ στόματός σου, ἐν τῷ ποιῆσαί σοι κύριον ἐκδίκησιν ἀπὸ τῶν ἐχθρῶν σου, ἀπὸ υἱῶν Ἀμμών.
11:37	καὶ ἥδε εἶπεν πρὸς τὸν πατέρα αὐτῆς Ποιησάτω δὴ ὁ πατήρ μου τὸν λόγον τοῦτον· ἔασόν με δύο μῆνας καὶ πορεύσομαι καὶ καταβήσομαι ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη, καὶ κλαύσομαι ἐπὶ τὰ παρθένιά μου, ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ αἱ συνεταιρίδες μου.
11:38	καὶ εἶπεν Πορεύου· καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτὴν δύο μῆνας. καὶ ἐπορεύθη αὐτὴ καὶ αἱ συνεταιρίδες αὐτῆς, καὶ ἔκλαυσεν ἐπὶ τὰ παρθένια αὐτῆς ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη.
11:39	καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τέλει τῶν δύο μηνῶν καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν πρὸς τὸν πατέρα αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐποίησεν ἐν αὐτῇ τὴν εὐχὴν αὐτοῦ ἢν ηὔξατο· καὶ αὕτη οὐκ ἔγνω ἄνδρα. καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς πρόσταγμα ἐν Ἰσραήλ·
11:40	ἀπὸ ἡμερῶν εἰς ἡμέρας ἐπορεύοντο θυγατέρες Ἰσραὴλ θρηνεῖν τὴν θυγατέρα Ἰεφθάε Γαλααδ ἐπὶ τέσσαρες ἡμέρας ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ. καὶ ἐβόησεν ἀνὴρ Ἐφράιμ, καὶ παρῆλθαν εἰς XII

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.
