2:0	ψαλμος τῷ Σαλωμὼν περὶ Ἰερουσαλήμ.
2:1	Ἐν τῷ ὑπερηφανεύεσθαι τὸν ἁμαρτωλὸν ἐν κριῷ κατέβαλλε τείχη ὐχυρά. καὶ οὐκ ἐκώλυσας.
2:2	ἀνέβησαν ἐπί τὸ θυσιαστήριόν σου ἔθνη ἀλλότρια, κατεπατοῦσαν ἐν ὑποδήμασιν οὕτων ἐν ὑπερηφανία.
2:3	ἀνθʼ ὧν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἐμίαναν τὰ ἅγια Κυρίου, ἐβεβηλοῦσαν τὰ δῶρα τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν ἀνομίαις·
2:4	ἕνεκεν τούτων εἶπεν Ἀπορίψατε αὐτα μακρὰν ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ, οὐκ εὐόδωκεν αὐτοῖς τὸ κάλλος τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ·
2:5	ἐξουθενώθη ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ, ἠτιμώθη ἕως εἰς τέλος.
2:6	υἱοὶ καὶ θυγατέρες ἐν αἰχμαλαωσίᾳ πονηρά. ἐν σφραγῖδι ὁ τράχηλος αὐτῶν, ἐν ἐπισήμῳ ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν·
2:7	κατὰ τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν ἐποίησεν αὐτοὶς, ὅτι ἐγκατέλειπεν αὐτοὺς εἰς χεῖρας κατισχυόντων·
2:8	ἀπέστρεψεν γὰρ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ ἐλέους αὐτῶν, νέον καὶ πρεσβύτην καὶ τέκνα αὐτῶν εἰς ἅπαξ·
2:9	ὅτι πονηρὰ ἐποίησαν εἰς ἅπαξ, τοῦ μὴ ἀκούειν.
2:10	καὶ ὁ οὐρανὸς ἐβαρυθύμησε, καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐβδελύξατο αὐτούς,
2:11	ὅτι οὐκ ἐποίησεν πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ἐπʼ αὐτῆς ὅσα ἐποίησαν.
2:12	καὶ γνώσεται ἡ γῆ τὰ κρίματά σου πάντα τὰ δίκαια, ὁ θεός.
2:13	ἔστησαν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰερουσαλὴμ εἰς ἐμπαιγμόν, ἀντὶ πορνῶν ἐν αὐτῇ· πᾶς ὁ πορευομενος είσεπορεύετο κατέναντι τοῦ ἡλίου· ἐνέπαιζον ταῖς ἀνομίαις αὐτῶν·
2:14	καθὰ ἐποίουν αὐτοί, ἀπέναντι τοῦ ἡλίου παρεδειγμάτισαν ἀδικίας αὐτῶν. καὶ θυγατέρες Ἰερουσαλὴμ βέβηλοι κατὰ τὸ κρίμα σου,
2:15	ἀυθʼ ἰὧν αὐταὶ ἐμιαίωσαν αὑτὰς ἐν φυρμῷ ἀναμίξεως τὴν κοιλίαν μου καὶ τὰ σπλάγχνα μου πονῶ ἐπὶ τούτοις.
2:16	ἐγὼ δικαιώσω σε, ὁ θεός, ἐν εὐθύτητι καρδίας· ὅτι ἐν τοῖς κρίμασίν σου ἡ δικαιοσύνη σου, ὁ θεός.
2:17	ὅτι ἀπέδωκας τοῖς ἁμαρτωλοῖς κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν, καὶ κατὰ τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν τὰς πονηρὰς σφόδρα.
2:18	ἀνέκαλυψας τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν, ἵνα φανῇ τὸ κρίμα σου·
2:19	ἐξήλειψας τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς. ὁ θεὸς κριτὴς δίκαιος, καὶ οὐ θαυμάσει πρόσαωσον.
2:20	ἐλνείδισαν γὰρ ἔθνη Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἐν καταπατήσει· κατέσπασεν τὸ κάλλος αὐτῆς ἀπὸ θρόνου δόξης.
2:21	περιεζώσατο σάκκον ἀντὶ ἐνδύματος εὐπρεπείας, σχοινίον περὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτῆς ἀντὶ στεφάνου.
2:22	περιείλατο μίτραν δόξης ἣν περιέθηκεν αὐτή ὁ θεός
2:23	ἐν ἀτιμίᾳ τὸ κάλλος αὐτῆς ἀπερρίφη ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.
2:24	καὶ ἐγὼ εἶδον, καὶ ἐδεήθην τοῦ προσώπου Κυρίου καὶ εἶπον Ἱκάνωσον, Κύριε, τοῦ βαρύνεσθαι χεῖράς σου ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν ἐπαγωγῇ ἐθνῶν.
2:25	ὑτι ἐνέπαιξαν καὶ οὐκ ἐφείσαντο, ἐν ἀργῇ καὶ θυμῷ μετὰ μηνίσεως
2:26	καὶ συντελεσθήσονται, ἐὰν μὴ σύ, Κύριε, ἐπιτιμήσεις αὐτοῖς ἐν ὀργή σου.
2:27	ὅτι οὐκ ἐν ζήλει ἐποίησαν, ἁλλ’ ἐν ἐπιθυμίᾳ ψυχῆς.
2:28	ἐκχέαι τὴν ὀργὴν αὐτῶν εἰς ἡμᾶς ἐν ἁρπάγματι. καὶ μὴ χρονίσῃς, ὁ θεός, τοῦ ἀποδοῦναι αὐτοῖς εἰς κεφαλάς,
2:29	τοῦ εἰπεῖν τὴν ὑπερηφανίαν τοῦ δράκοντος ἐν ἀτιμίᾳ.
2:30	καὶ οὐκ ἐχρόνισα ἕως ἔδειξέν μοι ὁ θεὸς τὴν ὕβριν αὐτοῦ, ἐκκεκεντημένον ἐπὶ τῶν ἀρέων Αἰγύπτου, ὑπέρ ἐλαχίστου ἐξουδενωμένον ἐπὶ γῆς καὶ θαλάσσης·
2:31	τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ διαφερόμενον ἐπὶ κυμάτων ἐν ὕβρει πολλῇ, καὶ οὐκ ἧυ ὸ θάπτων·
2:32	ὅτι ἐξουθένωσεν αὐτὸν ἐν ἀτιμίᾳ· οὐκ ἐλογίσατο ὅτι ἄνθρωπός ἐστιν, καὶ τὸ ὕστερον οὐκ ἐλογίσατο.
2:33	εἶπευ Ἐγὼ κύριος γῆς καὶ θαλάσσης ἔσομαι καὶ οὐκ ἐπέγνω ὅτι ὁ θεὸς μέγας, κραταιὸς ἐν ἰσχύι αὐτοῦ τῇ μεγὶλῃ.
2:34	αὺτὸς βασιλεὺς ἐπὶ τῶν οὐρανῶον καὶ κρίνων βασιλεῖς καὶ ἀρχάς·
2:35	ἀνιστῶν ἐμὲ εἰς δόξαν, καὶ κοιμίζων ὑπερηφάνους εἰς ἀπωλίαν αἰῶνος ἐν ἀτιμίᾳ. v ὅτι οὐκ ἔγναωσαν αὐτόν.
2:36	καὶ νῦν ἴδετε, οἱ μεγιστᾶνες τῆς γῆς, τὸ κρίμα τοῦ κυρίου· ὅτι μέγας βασιλεὺς καὶ δίκαιος, κρίνων τὴν ὑπʼ οὐρανόν.
2:37	εὺλογεῖτε τὸν θεόν, οἱ φοβούμενοι τὸν κύριον ἐν ἐπιστήμη. ὅτι τὴ ἔλεος Κυρίου ἐπὶ τοὺς φοβουμένους αὐτόν, μετὰ κρίματος,
2:38	τηοῦ διαστεῖλαι ἀνὰ μέσον δικαίου καὶ ἁμαρτωλοῦ, ἀποδοῦναι ἁμαρτωλοῖς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν·
2:39	καὶ ἐλεῆσαι δίκαιον ἀπὸ ταπεινώσεως ἁμαρτωλοῦ, καὶ ἀποδοῦναι ἁμαρτωλῷ ἀνθʼ ὦν ἐποίησεν δικαίῳ.
2:40	ὅτι χρηστὸς ὁ κύριος τοῖς ἐπικαλουμένοις αὐτὸυ ἐν ὑπομονή, ποθῆσαι κατὰ τὴ ἔλεος αὐτοῖῖ τοῖς ὁσίοις αὐτοῦ, παρεστάναι διὰ παντὸς ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ ἐν ἰσχύι.
2:41	εὺλογητὸς Κύριος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐνώπιον δούλων αὐτοῦ.

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.
