| 46:1 | κραταιὸς ἐν πολέμοις Ἰησοῦς Ναυῆ, καὶ διάδοχος Μωσῇ ἐν προφητείαις, ὃς ἐγένετο κατὰ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ (2)μέγας ἐπὶ σωτηρίᾳ ἐκλεκτῶν αὐτοῦ, ἐκδικῆσαι ἐπεγειρομένους ἐχθρούς, ὅπως κληρονομήσῃ τὸν Ἰσραήλ. |
| 46:2 | ὡς ἐδοξάσθη ἐν τῷ ἐπᾶραι χεῖρας αὐτοῦ καὶ τῷ ἐκκλῖναι ῥομφαίαν ἐπὶ πόλεις. |
| 46:3 | τίς πρότερον αὐτοῦ οὕτως ἔστη; τοὺς γὰρ πολεμίους Κύριος αὐτὸς ἐπήγαγεν. |
| 46:4 | οὐχὶ ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἀνεπόδισεν ὁ ἥλιος, καὶ μία ἡμέρα ἐγενήθη πρὸς δύο; |
| 46:5 | ἐπεκαλέσατο τὸν ὕψιστον δυνάστην ἐν τῷ θλίψαι αὐτὸν ἐχθροὺς κυκλόθεν καὶ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτῶν μέγας Κύριος ἐν λίθοις χαλάζης δυνάμεως κραταιᾶς· |
| 46:6 | κατέρραξεν ἐπ᾿ ἔθνος πόλεμον, καὶ ἐν καταβάσει ἀπώλεσεν ἀνθεστηκότας, (8)ἵνα γνῶσιν ἔθνη πανοπλίαν αὐτῶν, ὅτι ἐναντίον Κυρίου ὁ πόλεμος αὐτοῦ· καὶ γὰρ ἐπηκολούθησεν ὀπίσω Δυνάστου. |
| 46:7 | καὶ ἐν ἡμέραις Μωυσέως ἐποίησεν ἔλεος, αὐτὸς καὶ Χαλὲβ υἱὸς Ἰεφοννή, ἀντιστῆναι ἔναντι ἐχθροῦ, κωλῦσαι λαὸν ἀπὸ ἁμαρτίας καὶ κοπάσαι γογγυσμὸν πονηρίας. |
| 46:8 | καὶ αὐτοὶ δύο ὄντες διεσώθησαν ἀπὸ ἑξακοσίων χιλιάδων πεζῶν, εἰσαγαγεῖν αὐτοὺς εἰς κληρονομίαν, εἰς γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι. |
| 46:9 | καὶ ἔδωκεν ὁ κύριος τῷ Χαλὲβ ἰσχύν. καὶ ἕως γήρους διέμεινεν αὐτῷ, ἐπιβῆναι αὐτὸν ἐπὶ ὕψος τῆς γῆς. καὶ τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ κατέσχεν κληρονομίαν· |
| 46:10 | ὅπως ἴδωσιν πάντες οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ὅτι καλὸν τὸ πορεύεσθαι ὀπίσω Κυρίου. |
| 46:11 | καὶ οἱ κριταί, ἕκαστος τῷ αὐτοῦ ὀνόματι, ⁽¹4)ὅσων οὐκ ἐξεπόρνευσεν ἡ καρδία καὶ ὅσοι οὐκ ἀπεστράφησαν ἀπὸ Κυρίου, εἴη τὸ μνημόσυνον αὐτῶν ἐν εὐλογίαις· |
| 46:12 | τὰ ὀστᾶ αὐτῶν ἀναθάλοι ἐκ τοῦ τόπου, αὐτῶν, ⁽¹⁵)καὶ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῶν ἀντικαταλλασσόμενον ἐφʼ υἱοῖς δεδοξασμένων αὐτῶν. |
| 46:13 | ἠγαπημένος ὑπὸ κυρίου αὐτοῦ προφήτης Κυρίου κατέστησεν βασιλέα, καὶ ἔχρισεν ἄρχοντας ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ· |
| 46:14 | ἐν νόμῳ Κυρίου ἔκρινεν συναγωγήν, καὶ ἐπεσκέψατο Κύριος τὸν Ἰακώβ. |
| 46:15 | ἐν πίστει αὐτοῦ ἠκριβάσθη προφήτης, (18)καὶ ἐγνώσθη ἐν πίστει αὐτοῦ πιστὸς ὁράσεως. |
| 46:16 | καὶ ἐπεκαλέσατο τὸν κύριον δυνάστην, ἐν τῷ θλίψαι ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν, ἐν προσφορᾷ ἀρνὸς γαλαθηνοῦ· |
| 46:17 | καὶ ἐβρόντησεν ἀπʼ οὐρανοῦ Κύριος, καὶ ἐν ἤχῳ μεγάλῳ ἀκουστὴν ἐποίησεν τὴν φωνὴν αὐτοῦ, |
| 46:18 | καὶ ἐξέτριψεν ἡγουμένους Τυρίων καὶ πάντας ἄρχοντας Φυλιστιείμ. |
| 46:19 | καὶ πρὸ καιροῦ κοιμήσεως αἰῶνος ἐπεμαρτύρατο ἔναντι Κυρίου καὶ χριστοῦ Χρήματα καὶ ἕως ὑποδημάτων ἀπὸ πάσης σαρκὸς οὐκ εἴληφα·Β καὶ οὐκ ἐνεκάλεσεν αὐτῷ ἄνθρωπος. |
| 46:20 | καὶ μετὰ τὸ ὑπνῶσαι αὐτὸν προεφήτευσεν καὶ ὑπέδειξεν βασιλεῖ τὴν τελευτὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀνύψωσεν ἐκ γῆς τὴν φωνὴν αὐτοῦ ἐν προφητεία, ἐξαλεῖψαι ἀνομίαν λαοῦ. |

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.
