| 13:1 | Ὁ ἁπτόμενος πίσσης μολυνθήσεται, καὶ ὁ κοινωνῶν ὑπερηφάνῳ ὁμοιωθήσεται αὐτῷ. |
| 13:2 | βάρος ὑπέρ σέ μὴ ἄρης. καὶ ἰσχυροτέρῳ σου καὶ πλουσιαωτέρῳ μὴ κοινώνει. (³)τί κοινωνήσει χύτρα πρὸς λέβητα; αὕτη προσκρούσει, καὶ αὕτη συντριβήσεται. |
| 13:3 | πλούσιος ἠδίκησεν, καὶ αὐτὸς προσενεβριμήσατο· πτωχὸς ἠδίκηται, καὶ αὐτὸς προσδεηθήσεται. |
| 13:4 | ἐὰν χρησιμεύσῃς. ἐργᾶται ἐν σοί καὶ ἐὰν ὑστερήσῃς, καταλείψει σε· |
| 13:5 | ἐὸν ἔχῃς. συμβιώσεταί σοι καὶ ἀποκενώσει σε, καὶ αὐτὸς οὐ πονέσει· |
| 13:6 | χρείαν ἔσχηκέν σου, καὶ ἀποπλανήσει σε, καὶ προσγελάσεταί σοι καὶ δώσει σοι ἐλπίδαλαλήσει σοι καλὰ καὶ ἐρεῖ Τίς ἡ χρεία σου; |
| 13:7 | καὶ αἰσχυνεῖ σε ἐν τοῖς βρώμασιν αὐτοῦ, ἕως οὗ ἀποκενώσῃ σε δὶς ἢ τρίς, καὶ ἐπʼ ἐσχάτῳ καταμωκήσεταί σου· μετὰ ταῦτα ὄψεταί σε καὶ καταλείψει σε, καὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ κινήσει ἐπὶ σοί. |
| 13:8 | πρόσεχε μὴ ἀποπλανηθῇς, καὶ μὴ ταπεινωθῇς ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ σου. |
| 13:9 | προσκαλεσαμένου σε δυνάστου ὑποχωρῶν γίνου, καὶ τόσῳ μᾶλλον προσκαλέσεταί σε· |
| 13:10 | μὴ ἔμπιπτε, ἵνα μὴ ἀπωσθῇς, καὶ μὴ μακρὰν ἀφιστῶ, ἵνα μὴ ἐπιλησθῇς. |
| 13:11 | μὴ ἔπεχε ἰσηγορεῖσθαι μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ μὴ πίστευε τοῖς πλείοσιν λόγοις αὐτοῦ· ἐκ πολλῆς γὰρ λαλιᾶς πειράσει σε, καὶ ὡς προσγελῶν ἐξετάσει σε· |
| 13:12 | ἀνελεήμων ὁ μὴ συντηρῶν λόγους, καὶ οὐ μὴ φείσηται περὶ κακώσεως καὶ δεσμῶν. |
| 13:13 | συντήρησον καὶ πρόσεχε σφοδρῶς, ὅτι μετὰ τῆς πτώσεως σου περιπατεῖς. |
| 13:15 | πᾶν ζῷον ἀγαπᾷ τὸ ὅμοιον αὐτῷ, καὶ πᾶς ἄνθρωπος τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ· |
| 13:16 | πᾶσα σὰρξ κατὰ γένος συνάγεται, καὶ τῷ ὁμοίῳ αὐτοῦ προσκολληθήσεται ἀνήρ. |
| 13:17 | τί κοινωνήσει λύκος ἀμνῷ ; οὕτως ἁμαρτωλὸς πρὸς εὐσεβῆ. |
| 13:18 | τίς εἰρήνη ὑαίνῃ πρὸς κύνα; καὶ τίς εἰρήνη πλουσίῳ πρὸς πένητα; |
| 13:19 | κυνήγια λεόντων ὄναγροι ἐν ἐρήμῳ· οὕτως νομαὶ πλουσίων πτωχοί. |
| 13:20 | βδέλυγμα ὑπερηφάνῳ ταπεινότης, οὕτως βδέλυγμα πλουσίῳ πτωχός. |
| 13:21 | πλούσιος σαλευόμενος στηρίζεται ὑπὸ φίλων, ταπεινὸς δὲ πεσὼν προσαπωθεῖται ὑπὸ φίλαων. |
| 13:22 | πλουσίου σφαλέντος πολλοὶ ἀντιλήμπτορες, ἐλάλησεν ἀπόρρητα καὶ ἐδικαίωσαν αὐτόν· (27)ταπεινὸς ἔσφαλεν καὶ προσεπετίμησαν αὐτῷ, ἐφθέγξατο σύνεσιν καὶ οὐκ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ τόπος. |
| 13:23 | ετλούσιος ἐλάλησεν καὶ πάντες ἐσίγησαν, καὶ τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ ἀνύψωσαν ἕως τῶυ νεφελῶν· (29) πτωχὸς ἐλάλησεν καὶ εἶπαν Τίς οὗτος; κἂν προσκόψῃ, προσανατρέψουσιν αὐτόν. |
| 13:24 | ἀγαθὸς ὁ πλοῦτος ᾧ μή ἐστιν ἁμαρτία, καὶ πονηρὰ ἡ πτωχεία ἐν στόμασιν εὐσεβοῦς. |
| 13:25 | καρδία ἀνθρώπου ἀλλοιοῖ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ, ἐὰν εἰς ἀγαθὰ ἐάν τε εἰς κακά. |
| 13:26 | ἴχνος καρδίας ἐν ἀγαθοῖς πρόσωπον ἱλαρόν, καὶ εὕρεσις παραβολῶν διαλογισμοὶ μετὰ κόπου. |

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.
