| 36:1 | Ἐλέησον ἡμᾶς, δέσποτα ὁ θεὸς πάντων, |
| 36:2 | καὶ ἐπίβλεψον, (2)καὶ ἐπίβαλε τὸν φόβον σου ἐπὶ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη· |
| 36:3 | ἔπαρον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ ἔθνη ἀλλότρια, καὶ ἰδέτωσαν τὴν δυναστείαν σου. |
| 36:4 | ὥσπερ ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν ἡγιάσθης ἐν ἡμίν, οὕτως ἐνώπιον ἡμῶν μεγαλυνθείης ἐν αὐτοῖς· |
| 36:5 | καὶ ἐπιγνώτωσάν σε καθάπερ καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐπέγνωμεν, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν θεὸς πλὴν σοῦ, Κύριε. |
| 36:6 | ἐγκαίνισον σημεῖα καὶ ἀλλοίωσον θαυμάσια, |
| 36:7 | δόξασον χεῖρα καὶ βραχίονα δεξιόν· |
| 36:8 | ἔγειρον θυμὸν καὶ ἔκχεον ἀργήν, |
| 36:9 | ἔξαρον ἀντίδικον καὶ ἔκτριψον ἐχθρόν. |
| 36:10 | σπεῦσον καιρὸν καὶ μνήσθητι ὁρκισμοῦ, καὶ ἐκδιηγησάσθωσαν τὰ μεγαλεῖά σου. |
| 36:11 | ἐν ἀργῇ πυρὸς καταβρωθήτω ὁ σωζόμενος, καὶ οἱ ἀδικοῦντες τὸν λαόν σου εῦροισαν ἀπώλειαν. |
| 36:12 | σύντριψον κεφαλὰς ἀρχόντων ἐχθρῶν, λεγόντων Οὐκ ἔστιν πλὴν ἡμῶν. |
| 36:13a | σύναγε πάσας φυλὰς Ἰακώβ, |
| 36:16b | bκαὶ κατακληρονομήσεις αὐτοὺς καθὼς ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς. |
| 36:17 | ἐλέησον λαόν, Κύριε, κεκλημένον ἐπʼ ὀνόματί σου, καὶ Ἰσραὴλ ὃν πρωτογόνῳ ὡμοίωσας. |
| 36:18 | οἰκτείρησον πόλιν ἁγιάσματός σου, Ἰερουσαλήμ, πόλιν καταπαύματός σου· |
| 36:19 | πλῆσον Σιὼν ἀρεταλογίας σου, καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς δόξης σου τὸν λαόν σου. |
| 36:20 | δὸς μαρτύριον τοῖς ἐν ἀρχῇ κτίσμασίν σου, καὶ ἔγειρον προφητείας τὰς ἐπʼ ὀνόματί σου· |
| 36:21 | δὸς μισθὸν τοῖς ὑπομένουσίν σε, καὶ οἱ προφῆταί σου ἐμπιστευθήταωσαν. |
| 36:22 | κἰσάκουσον, Κύριε, δεήσεως τῶν ἱκετῶν σου (19)κατὰ τὴν εὐλογίαν Ἀαρὼν περὶ τοῦ λαοῦ σου, καὶ γνώσονται πάντες οἱ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ὅτι Κύριος εἶ, ὁ θεὸς τῶν αἰώνων. |
| 36:23 | Τᾶν βρῶμα φάγεται κοιλία, ἔστιν δὲ βρῶμα βρώματος κάλλιον. |
| 36:24 | φάρυγξ γεύεται βρώματα θήρας. οὕτως καρδία συνετὴ λόγους ψευδεῖς. |
| 36:25 | καρδία στρεβλὴ δώσει λύπην, καὶ ἄνθρωπος πολύπειρος ἀνταποδώσει αὐτῷ. |
| 36:26 | πάντα ἄρρενα ἐπιδέξεται γυνή, ἔστιν δὲ θυγάτηρ θυγατρὸς κρεῖσσον. |
| 36:27 | κάλλος γυναικὸς ἱλαρύνει πρόσωπον, καὶ ὑπέρ πᾶσαν ἐπιθυμίαν ἀνθρώπου ὑπεράγει· |
| 36:28 | τἰ ἔστιν ἐπὶ γλώσσης αὐτῆς ἔλεος καὶ πρᾳύτης. οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς καθʼ υἱοὺς ἀνθρώπων. |
| 36:29 | ὁ κτώμενος γυναῖκα ἐνάρχεται κτήσεως, βοηθὸν κατʼ αὐτὸν καὶ στύλον ἀναπαύσεως. |
| 36:30 | οὖ οὐκ ἔστιν φραγμός, διαρπαγήσεται κτῆμα· καὶ nὗ οὐκ ἔστιν γυνή, στενάξει πλανώμενος. |
| 36:31 | τίς γὰρ πιστεύσει εὐζώνῳ λῃστῇ σφαλλομένῳ ἐκ πόλεως εἰς πόλιν; οὕτως ἀνθρώπῳ μὴ ἔχοντι νοσσιὰν καὶ καταλύοντι οὄ ἐὰν ὀψίσῃ. |

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.
