| 78:0 | Ψαλμὸς τῷ Ἀσάφ. |
| 78:1 | Ὁ θεός, ἤλθοσαν ἔθνη εἰς τὴν κληρονομίαν σου, ἐμίαναν τὸν ναὸν τὸν ἅγιόν σου, ἔθεντο Ἰερουσαλὴμ εἰς ὀπωροφυλάκιον· |
| 78:2 | ἔθεντο τὰ θνησιμαῖα τῶν δούλων σου βρώματα τοῖς πετεινοῖς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, τὰς σάρκας τῶν ὁσίων σου τοῖς θηρίοις τῆς γῆς· |
| 78:3 | ἐξέχεαν τὸ αἷμα αὐτῶν ὡς ὕδωρ κύκλῳ Ἰερουσαλήμ, καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ θάπτων. |
| 78:4 | ἐγενήθημεν εἰς ὄνειδος τοῖς γείτοσιν ἡμῶν. μυκτηρισμὸς καὶ χλευασμὸς τοῖς κύκλῳ ἡμῶν. |
| 78:5 | ἕως πότε, Κύριε, ὀργισθήσῃ εἰς τέλος; ἐκκαυθήσεται ὡς πῦρ ὁ ζῆλός σου; |
| 78:6 | ἔκχεον τὴν ὀργήν σου ἐπὶ ἔθνη τὰ μὴ ἐπεγνωκότα σε, καὶ ἐπὶ βασιλείας αἱ τὸ ὄνομά σου οὐκ ἐπεκαλέσαντο· |
| 78:7 | ὅτι κατέφαγον τὸν Ἰακώβ, καὶ τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ ἠρήμωσαν. |
| 78:8 | μὴ μνησθῇς ἡμῶν ἀνομιῶν ἀρχαίων· ταχὺ προκαταλαβέτωσαν ἡμᾶς οἱ οἰκτειρμοί σου, ὅτι ἐπτωχεύσαμεν σφόδρα. |
| 78:9 | βοήθησον ἡμῖν, ὁ θεὸς ὁ σωτὴρ ἡμῶν, ἕνεκα τῆς δόξης τοῦ ὀνόματός σου· Κύριε, ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἱλάσθητι ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ἡμῶν ἕνεκα τοῦ ὀνόματός σου· |
| 78:10 | μή ποτε εἵπωσιν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν Ποῦ ἐστιν ὁ θεὸς αὐτῶν; καὶ γνωσθήτω ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἐνώπιον τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν ἡμῶν ἡ ἐκδίκησις τοῦ αἵματος τῶν δούλων σου τοῦ ἐκκεχυμένου. |
| 78:11 | εἰοηλθάτω ἐνώπιόν σου ὁ στεναγμὸς τῶν πεπεδημέναων, κατὰ τὴν μεγαλωσύνην τοῦ βραχίονός σου, περιποίησαι τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν τεθαναταομέναων. |
| 78:12 | ἀπόδος τοῖς γείτοσιν ἡμῶν ἑπταπλάσια εἰς τὸν κόλπον αὐτῶν, τὸν ὀνειδισμὸν αὐτῶν ὃν ὠνείδισάν σε, κύριε. |
| 78:13 | ἡμεῖς γὰρ λαός σου καὶ πρόβατα τῆς νομῆς σου ἀνθομολογησόμεθά σοι εἰς τὸν αἰώνα, εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεὰν ἐξαγγελοῦμεν τὴν αἴνεσίν σου. |

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.
