| 85:2 | φύλαξον τὴν ψυχήν μου, ὅτι ὅσιός εἰμι σῶσον τὸν δοῦλόν σου, ὁ θεός μου, τὸν ἐλπίζοντα ἐπὶ σέ. |
| 85:3 | ἐλέησόν με, κύριε, ὅτι πρὸς σέ κεκράξομαι ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν. |
| 85:4 | εὔφρανον τὴν ψυχὴν τοῦ δούλου σου, ὅτι πρὸς σέ, κύριε, ἤρα τὴν ψυχὴν μου. |
| 85:5 | ὅτι σύ, κύριε. χρηστὸς καὶ ἐπιεικὴς καὶ πολυέλεος πᾶσι τοῖς ἐπικαλουμένοις σε. |
| 85:6 | ἐνώτισαι, Κύριε, τὴν προσευχὴν μου. καὶ πρόσχες τῇ φωνῇ τῆς δεήσεώς μου. |
| 85:7 | ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεως μου ἐκέκραξα πρὸς σέ, ὅτι εἰσήκουσάς μου. |
| 85:8 | οὐκ ἔστιν ὅμοιός σοι ἐν θεοῖς, κύριε. καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν κατὰ τὰ ἔργα σου. |
| 85:9 | πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ὅσα ἐποίησας ἥξουσιν καὶ προσκυνήσουσιν ἐνώπιόν σου, Κύριε, καὶ δοξάσουσιν τὸ ὄνομά σου· |
| 85:10 | ὅτι μέγας εἶ σὺ καὶ ποιὥν θαυμάσια, σὺ εἶ ὁ θεὸς μόνος ὁ μέγας. |
| 85:11 | δήγησόν με, Κύριε, τῇ ὁδῷ σου, καὶ πορεύσομαι τῇ ἀληθείᾳ σου· εὐφρανθήτω ἡ καρδία μου τοῦ φοβεῖσθαι τὸ ὄνομά σου. |

| 85:15 | καὶ σύ, Κύριε ὁ θεός, οἰκτίρμων καὶ ἐλεήμων, μακρόθυμος καὶ πολυέλεος καὶ ἀληθινός. |
| 85:16 | ἐπίβλεψον ἐπʼ ἐμὲ καὶ ἐλέησόν με, δὸς τὸ κράτος σου τῷ παιδί σου, καὶ σῶσον τὸν υἱὸν τῆς παιδίσκης σου. |
| 85:17 | ποίησον μετʼ ἐμοῦ σημεῖον εἰς ἀγαθόν, καὶ ἰδέτωσαν οἱ μισοῦντές με καὶ αἰσχυνθήτωσαν, ὅτι σύ, Κύριε, ἐβοήθησάς μοι καὶ παρεκάλεσάς με. |

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.
