| 21:1 | Καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων Εἰπὸν τοῖς ἱερεῦσιν τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἀαρὼν καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς Ἐν ταῖς ψυχαῖς οὐ μιανθήσονται ἐν τῷ ἔθνει αὐτῶν, |
| 21:2 | ἀλλ᾿ ἢ ἐν τῷ οἰκείῳ τῷ ἔγγιστα ἐπὶ πατρὶ καὶ μητρί, καὶ υἱοῖς καὶ θυγατράσιν, ἐπ’ ἀδελφῷ |
| 21:3 | καὶ ἀδελφῇ παρθένῳ τῇ ἐγγιζούσῃ αὐτῷ τῇ μὴ ἐκδεδομένῃ ἀνδρί, ἐπὶ τούτοις μιανθήσεται. |
| 21:4 | οὐ μιανθήσεται ἐξάπινα ἐν τῷ λαὼ αὐτοῦ εἰς βεβήλωσιν αὐτοῦ. |
| 21:5 | καὶ φαλάκρωμα οὐ ξυρηθήσεσθε τὴν κεφαλὴν ἐπὶ νεκρῷ, καὶ τὴν ἄψιν τοῦ πώγωνος οὐ ξυρήσονται, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς σάρκας αὐτῶν οὐ κατατεμοῦσιν ἐντομίδας. |
| 21:6 | ἅγιοι ἔσονται τῷ θεῷ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτῶν· τὰς γὰρ θυσίας κυρίου δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτῶν αὐτοὶ προσφέρουσιν, καὶ ἔσονται ἅγιοι. |
| 21:7 | γυναῖκα πόρνην καὶ βεβηλωμένην οὐ λήμψονται, καὶ γυναῖκα ἐκβεβλημένην ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς. ἅγιός ἐστιν τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἁγιάσει αὐτόν· |
| 21:8 | τὰ δῶρα κυρίου θεοῦ ὑμῶν οὗτος προσφέρει· ἅγιος ἔσται, ὅτι ἅγιος ἐγὼ Κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς. |
| 21:9 | καὶ θυγάτηρ ἀνθρώπου ἱερέως ἐὰν βεβηλωθῇ τοῦ ἐκπορνεῦσαι, τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ πατμὸς αὐτῆς αὐτὴ βεβηλοῖ· |
| 21:10 | ἐπὶ πυρὸς κατακαυθήσεται. Καὶ ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ μέγας ἀπὸ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ, τοῦ ἐπικεχυμένου ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν τοῦ ἐλαίου τοῦ χριστοῦ καὶ τετελειωμένου ἐνδύσασθαι τὰ ἱμάτια, τὴν κεφαλὴν οὐκ ἀποκιδαρώσει καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια οὐ διαρρήξει, |
| 21:11 | καὶ ἐπὶ πάσῃ ψυχῇ τετελευτηκυίᾳ οὐκ εἰσελεύσεται, ἐπὶ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ ἐπὶ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ οὐ μιανθήσεται, |
| 21:12 | καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἁγίων οὐκ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ ἡγιασμένον τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι τὸ ἅγιον ἔλαιον τὸ χριστὸν τοῦ θεοῦ ἐπ’ αὐτῷ· ἐγὼ κύριος. |
| 21:13 | οὗτος παρθένον ἐκ τοῦ γένους αὐτοῦ λήμψεται · |
| 21:14 | χήραν δὲ καὶ ἐκβεβλημένην καὶ βεβηλωμένην καὶ πόρνην, ταύτας οὐ λήμψεται, ἀλλ’ ἢ παρθένον ἐκ Τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ λήμψεται γυναῖκα· |
| 21:15 | καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ· ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτόν. |
| 21:16 | Καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων |
| 21:17 | Εἰπὸν Ἀαρών Ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ γένους σου εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν, τίνι ἐὰν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος, οὐ προσελεύσεται προσφέρειν τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ. |
| 21:18 | πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ᾧ ἂν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος οὐ προσελεύσεται· ἄνθρωπος χωλὸς ἢ τυφλὸς ἢ κολοβόριν ἢ ὠτότμητος, |
| 21:19 | ἄνθρωπος ᾧ ἐστὶν ἐν αὐτῷ σύντριμμα χειρὸς ἢ σύντριμμα ποδός, |
| 21:20 | ἢ κυρτὸς ἢ ἔφηλος ἢ πτίλος τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς, ἢ ἄνθρωπος ᾧ ἂν ᾖ ἐν αὐτῷ ψώρα ἀγρία ὴ λιχὴν ἢ μόνορχις, |
| 21:21 | πᾶς ᾧ ἐστὶν ἐν αὐτῷ μῶμος ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος Ἀαρὼν τοῦ ἱερέως οὐ προσεγγιεῖ τοῦ προσενεγκεῖν τὰς θυσίας τῷ θεῷ σου, ὅτι μῶμος ἐν αὐτῷ· τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ οὐ προσελεύσεται τᾶι προσενεγκεῖν. |
| 21:22 | τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ τὰ ἅγια τῶν ἁγίων καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἁγίων φάγεται· |
| 21:23 | πλὴν πρὸς τὸ καταπέτασμα οὐ προσελεύσεται, καὶ πρὸς τὸ θυσιαστήριον οὐκ ἐγγιεῖ, ὅτι μῶμον ὦι· καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσει τὸ ἅγιον τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος ὁ ἁγιάζων αὐτούς. |
| 21:24 | καὶ ἐλάλησεν Μωυσῆς πρὸς Ἀαρὼν καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ πρὸς πάντας υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ. |

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.
