| 48:1 | καὶ ἀνέστη Ἠλίας προφήτης ὡς πῦρ, καὶ ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ ὡς λαμπὰς ἐκαίετο· |
| 48:2 | ὃς ἐπήγαγεν ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς λιμόν, καὶ τῷ ζήλῳ αὐτοῦ ὠλιγοποίησεν αὐτούς· |
| 48:3 | ἐν λόγῳ Κυρίου ἀνέσχεν οὐρανόν, κατήγαγεν οὕτως τρὶς πῦρ. |
| 48:4 | ὡς ἐδοξάσθης, Ἠλεία, ἐν τοῖς θαυμασίοις σου· καὶ τίς ὅμοιός σοι καυχᾶσθαι; |
| 48:5 | ὁ ἐγείρας νεκρὸν ἐκ θανάτου καὶ ἐξ ᾅδου ἐν λόγῳ Ὑψίστου· |
| 48:6 | ὁ καταγαγὼν βασιλεῖς εἰς ἀπωλίαν καὶ δεδοξασμένους ἀπὸ κλίνης αὐτῶν· |
| 48:7 | ἀκούων ἐν Σεινὰ ἐλεγμὸν καὶ ἐν Χωρὴβ κρίματα ἐκδικήσεως· |
| 48:8 | ὁ χρίων βασιλεῖς εἰς ἀνταπόδομα, καὶ προφήτας διαδόχους μετʼ αὐτόν· |
| 48:9 | ὁ ἀναλημφθεὶς ἐν λαίλαπι πυρὸς ἐν ἄρματι ἵππαων πυρίνων· |
| 48:10 | ὁ καταγραφεὶς ἐν ἐλεγμοῖς εἰς καιρούς, κοπάσαι ὀργὴν πρὸ θυμοῦ καὶ ἐπιστρέψαι καρδίαν πατρὸς πρὸς υἱὸν καὶ καταστῆσαι φυλὰς Ἰακώβ. |
| 48:11 | ¹¹μακάριοι οἱ ἰδόντες σε καὶ οἱ ἐν ἀγαπήσει κεκοσμημένοι, (12)καὶ γὰρ ἡμεῖς ζωῇ ζησόμεθα. |
| 48:12 | Ἠλείας ὃς ἐν λαίλαπι ἐσκεπάσθη· καὶ Ἐλεισαῖε ἐνεπλήσθη πνεύματος αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐσαλεύθη ὑπὸ ἄρχοντος, καὶ οὐ κατεδυνάστευσεν αὐτὸν οὐδείς. |
| 48:13 | πᾶς λόγος οὐχ ὑπερῆρεν αὐτόν, καὶ ἐν κοιμήσει ἐπροφήτευσεν τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ· |
| 48:14 | καὶ ἐν ζωῇ αὐτοῦ ἐποίησεν τέρατα, καὶ ἐν τελευτῇ θαυμάσια τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ. |
| 48:15 | ἐν πᾶσιν τούτοις οὐ μετενόησεν ὁ λαός, καὶ οὐκ ἀπέστησαν ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν, ἕως ἐπρονομεύθησαν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐσκορπίσθησαν ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ, (17) καὶ κατελείφθη ὁ λαὸς ὀλιγοστός, καὶ ἄρχων τῷ οἴκῳ Δαυείδ. |
| 48:16 | τινὲς μὲν αὐτῶν ἐποίησαν τὸ ἀρεστόν, τινὲς δὲ ἐπλήθυναν ἁμαρτίας. |
| 48:17 | Ἑζεκίας ὠχύρωσεν τὴν πόλιν αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἰσήγαγεν εἰς μέσον αὐτῶν τὸν Γώγ· ὤρυξεν σιδήρῳ ἀκρότομον, καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν κρήνας εἰς ὕδατα. |
| 48:18 | ἐν ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ἀνέβη Σενναχηρεὶμ καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ῥαψάκην, καὶ ἀπῆρεν· καὶ ἐπῆρεν ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Σειών, καὶ ἐμεγαλαύχησεν ὑπερηφανίᾳ αὐτοῦ. |
| 48:19 | τότε ἐσαλεύθησαν καρδίαι καὶ χεῖρες αὐτῶν, καὶ ὠδίνησαν ὡς αἱ τίκτουσαι· |
| 48:20 | καὶ ἐπεκαλέσαντο τὸν κύριον τὸν ἐλεήμονα, ἐκπετάσαντες τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν πρὸς αὐτόν. καὶ ὁ ἅγιος ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ταχὺ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτῶν, (23)καὶ ἐλυτρώσατο αὐτοὺς ἐν χειρὶ Ἠσαίου· |
| 48:21 | ἐπάταξεν τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν Ἀσσυρίων, καὶ ἐξέτριψεν αὐτοὺς ὁ ἄγγελος αὐτοῦ. |
| 48:22 | ἐποίησεν γὰρ Ἑζεκίας τὸ ἀρεστὸν Κυρίῳ, καὶ ἐνίσχυσεν ἐν ὁδοῖς Δαυεὶδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, ἃς ἐνετείλατο Ἠσαίας ὁ προφήτης ὁ μέγας καὶ πιστὸς ἐν ὁράσει αὐτοῦ. |
| 48:23 | ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ἀνεπόδισεν ὁ ἥλιος, καὶ προσέθηκεν ζωὴν βασιλεῖ· |
| 48:24 | πνεύματι μεγάλῳ ἴδεν τὰ ἔσχατα, καὶ παρεκάλεσεν τοὺς πενθοῦντας ἐν Σειών· |
| 48:25 | ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος ὑπέδειξεν τὰ ἐσόμενα καὶ τὰ ἀπόκρυφα πρὶν ἢ παραγενέσθαι αὐτά. |

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.
