| 22:1 | Λίθῳ ἠρδαλωμένῳ συνεβλήθη ὀκνηρός. καὶ πᾶς ἐκσυριεῖ ἐπὶ τῇ ἀτιμίᾳ αὐτοῦ. |
| 22:2 | βολβίτῳ κοπρίων συνεβλήθη ὀκνηρός. πᾶς ὁ ἀναιρούμενος αὐτὸν ἐκτινάξει χεῖρα. |
| 22:3 | αἰσχύνη πατρὸς ἐν γεννήσει ἀπαιδεύτου, θυγάτηρ δὲ ἐπʼ ἐλαττώσει γίνεται. |
| 22:4 | θυγάτηρ φρονίμη κληρονομήσει ἄνδρα αὐτῆς, καὶ ἡ καταισχύνουσα εἰς λύπην γεννήσαντος· |
| 22:5 | πατέρα καὶ ἄνδρα καταισχύνει ἡ θρασεῖα, καὶ ὑπὸ ἀμφοτέρων ἀτιμασθήσεται. |
| 22:6 | μουσικὰ ἐν πένθει ἄκαιρος διήγησις. μάστιγες καὶ παιδεία ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ σοφίας. |
| 22:7 | συνκολλῶν ὄστρακον ὁ διδάσκων μαορόν, (8)ἐξεγείρων καθεύδοντα ἐκ βαθέος ὕπνου· |
| 22:8 | διηγούμενος νυστάζοντι ὁ διηγούμενος μωράῷ. καὶ ἐπὶ συντελείᾳ ἐρεῖ Τί ἐστιν |
| 22:11 | ἐπὶ νεκρῷ κλαῦσον, ἐξέλιπεν γὰρ φῶς· καὶ ἐπὶ μωρῷ κλαῦσον, ἐξέλιπεν γὰρ σύνεσιν· (11)ἥδιον κλαῦσον ἐπὶ νεκρῷ, ὅτι ἀνεπαύσατο, (12)τοῦ δέ μωροῦ ὑπέρ θάνατον ἡ ζωὴ πονηρά. |
| 22:12 | ¹²πένθος νεκροῦ ἑπτὰ ἡμέραι, μωροῦ δὲ καὶ ἀσεβοῦς πᾶσαι αἱ ἡμέραι τῆς ζωῆς αὐτοῦ. |
| 22:13 | μετὰ ἄφρονος μὴ πληθύνῃς λόγον, καὶ πρὸς ἀσύνετον μὴ πορεύου· (15)φλύλαξαι ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ, ἴνα μὴ κόπον ἔχης καὶ οὐ μὴ μολυνθῇς ἐν τῷ ἐντιναγμῷ αὐτοῦ· (16)ἔκκλινον ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ καὶ εὑρήσεις ἀνάπαυσιν, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀκηδιάσῃς ἐν τῇ ἀπονοίᾳ αὐτοῦ. |
| 22:14 | ὑπέρ μόλβον τί βαρυνθήσεται; καὶ τί αὐτῷ ὄνομα ἀλλ᾿ ἦ μωρός |
| 22:15 | ἄμμον καὶ ἄλα καὶ βῶλον σιδήρου εὔκόπου ὑπενεγκεῖν ἡ ἄνθραωπον ἀσύνετον. |
| 22:16 | ἱμάντωσις ξυλίνη ἐνδεδεμένη εἰς οἰκοδομὴν ἐν συσσεισμῷ οὐ διαλυθήσεται, οὕτως καρδία ἐστηριγμένη ἐπὶ διανοήματος βουλῆς (20)ἐν καιρῷ οὐ δειλιάσει. |
| 22:17 | καρδία ἡδρασμένη ἐπὶ διανοίας συνέσεως ὡς κόσμος ψαμμωτὸς τοίχου ξυστοῦ. |
| 22:18 | χάρακες ἐπὶ μετεάρου κείμενοι κατέναντι ἀνέμου οὐ μὴ ὑπομείναωσιν· ,23) οὕτως καρδία δειλὴ ἐπὶ διανοήματος μωροί κατέναντι παντὸς φόβου οὐ μὴ ὑπομείνῃ. |
| 22:19 | ὁ νύσσων ὀφθαλμὸν κατάξει δάκρυα, καὶ νύσσων καρδίαν ἐκφαίνει αἴσθησιν. |
| 22:20 | ξΝάλλων λίθον ἐπὶ πετεινὰ ἀποσοβεῖ αὐτά, καὶ ὁ ὀνειδίζων φίλον διαλύσει φιλίαν. |
| 22:21 | ἐπὶ φίλον ἐὰν σπάσῃς όομφαίαν, μὴ ἀφελπίσῃς, ἔστιν γὰρ ἐπάνοδοςΣπὶ |
| 22:22 | φίλον (27)ἐὸν ἀνοίξῃς στόμα, μὴ εὐλαβηθῇς, ἔστιν γὰρ διαλλαγή· πλὴν ὀνειδισμοῦ καὶ ὑπερηφανίας καὶ μυστηρίου ἀποκαλύψεως καὶ πληγῆς δολίας· ἐν τούτοις ἀποφεύξεται πᾶς φίλος. |
| 22:23 | ςίστιν κτῆσαι ἐν πταωχείᾳ μετὰ τοῦ πλησίον, ἵνα ἐν τοῖς ἀγαθοῖς αὐτοῦ ὁμοῦ πλησθῇς· (29)ἐν καιρῷ θλίψεανς διάμενε αὐτῷ, ἵνα ἐν τῇ κληρονομίᾳ αὐτοῦ συνκληρονομήσῃς. |
| 22:24 | πρὸ πυρὸς ἀτμὶς καμίνου καὶ καπνός, οὕτως πρὸ αἱμάτων λοιδορίαι. |
| 22:25 | φίλον σκεπάσαι οὐκ αἰσχυνθήσομαι, καὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ οὐ μὴ κρυβῶ, |
| 22:26 | καὶ εἰ κακά μοι συμβήσεται δι᾿ αὐτόν, (32)πᾶς ὁ ἀκούων φυλάξεται ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ. |
| 22:27 | Τἰς δώσει μοι ἐπὶ στόμα μου φυλακὴν καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν χειλέων μου σφραγῖδα πανοῦργον. ἵνα μὴ πέσω ἀπʼ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἡ γλῶσσά μου ἀπολέσῃ 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.
