| 89:0 | ΙΙροσευχὴ τοῦ Μωυσῆ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ θεοῦ. |
| 89:1 | Κύριε, καταφυγὴ ἡμῖν ἐγενήθης ἐν γενεᾷ καὶ γενεᾷ· |
| 89:2 | πρὸ τοῦ ὄρη γενηθῆναι καὶ πλασθῆναι τὴν γῆν καὶ τὴν οἰκουμένην, καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος σὺ εἶ |
| 89:3 | μὴ ἀποστρέψῃς ἄνθρωπον εἰς ταπείνωσιν, καὶ εἶπας Ἐπιστρέψατε υἱοὶ ἀνθρώπων; |
| 89:4 | ὅτι χίλια ἔτη ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου ὡς ἡ ἡμέρα ἡ ἐχθὲς ἥτις διῆλθεν, καὶ φυλακὴ ἐν νυκτί. |
| 89:5 | τὰ ἐξουδενώματα αὐτῶν ἔτη ἔσονται, τὸ πρωὶ ὡσεὶ χλόη παρέλθοι· |
| 89:6 | τὸ πρωὶ ἀνθήσαι καὶ παρέλθοι, τὸ ἑσπέρας ἀποπέσοι, σκληρυνθείη καὶ ξηρανθείη. |
| 89:7 | ὅτι ἐξελίπομεν ἐν τῆ ὀργῇ σου. καὶ ἐν τῷ θυμῷ σου ἐταράχθημεν· |
| 89:8 | ἔθοῦ τὰς ἀνομίας ἡμῶν ἐνώπιόν σου, ὁ αἰὼν ἡμῶν εἰς φωτισμὸν τοῦ προσώπου σου. |
| 89:9 | ὅτι πᾶσαι αἱ ἡμέραι ἡμῶν ἐξέλιπον, καὶ ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ σου ἐξελίπομεν· τὰ ἔτη ἡμῶν ὡς ἀράχνην ἐμελέτων. |
| 89:10 | αἱ ἡμέραι τῶν ἐτῶν ἡμῶν ἐν ἐνιαυτοῖς ἑβδομήκοντα ἔτη, ἐὸν δὲ ἐν δυναστείαις, ὀγδοήκοντα ἔτη, καὶ τὸ πλεῖον αὐτῶν κόπος καὶ πόνος· ὅτι ἐπῆλθεν πραύτης ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς, καὶ παιδευθησόμεθα. |
| 89:11 | τίς γινώσκει τὸ κράτος τῆς ἀργῆς σου, καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ φόβου τοῦ θυμοῦ σου ἐξαριθμήσασθαι; |
| 89:12 | τὴν δεξιάν σου γνώρισον, καὶ τοὺς πεπαιδευμένους τῇ καρδίᾳ ἐν σοφίᾳ. |
| 89:13 | ἐπίστρεψον, Κύριε· ἕως πότε; καὶ παρακλήθητι ἐπὶ τοῖς δούλοις σου. |
| 89:14 | ἐνεπλήσθημεν τὸ πρωὶ τοῦ ἐλέους σου, καὶ ἠγαλλιασάμεθα καὶ εὐφράνθημεν ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἡμέραις ἡμῶν, |
| 89:15 | ἀνθʼ ὧν ἡμερῶν ἐταπείνωσας ἡμᾶς, ἐτῶν ὧν εἴδομεν κακά. |
| 89:16 | καὶ ἴδε ἐπὶ τοὺς δούλους σου καὶ τὰ ἔργα σου, καὶ ὁδήγησον τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτῶν. |
| 89:17 | καὶ ἔστω ἡ λαμπρότης Κυρίου θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς. καὶ τὰ ἔργα τῶν χειρῶν ἡμῶν κατεύθυνον ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς. |

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.
