| 2:1 | Ὅτε δὲ κατῆλθον εἰς τὸν οἶκόν μου καὶ ἀπεδόθη μοι Ἅννα ἡ γυνὴ μου καὶ Τωβίας ὁ υἱός μου, ἐν τῇ πεντηκοστῇ ἑορτῇ ἥ ἐστιν ἁγία ἑπτὰ ἑβδομάδων, ἐγενήθη ἄριστον καλόν μοι· ἀνέπεσα τοῦ φαγεῖν. |
| 2:2 | καὶ ἐθεασάμην ὄψα πολλά, καὶ εἶπα τῷ υἱῷ μου Βάδισον καὶ ἄγαγε ὃν ἐὰν εὕρῃς τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν ἐνδεῆ ὃς μέμνηται τοῦ κυρίου, καὶ ἰδοὺ μένω σε. |
| 2:3 | καὶ ἐλθὼν εἶπεν Πάτερ, εἰς ἐκ τοῦ γένους ἡμῶν ἐστραγγαλωμένος ἔρριπται ἐν τῇ ἀγορῷ. |
| 2:4 | κἀγὼ πρὶν ἢ γεύσασθαί με ἀναπηδήσας (4)ἀνειλόμην αὐτὸν εἰς τι οἴκημα ἕως οὗ ἔδυ ὁ ἥλιος. |
| 2:5 | καὶ ἐπιστρέψας ἐλουσάμην, καὶ ἤσθιον τὸν ἄρτον μου ἐν λύπῃ· |
| 2:6 | καὶ ἐμνήσθην τῆς προφητείας Ἀμώς, καθὼς εἶπεν Στραφήσονται αἱ ἑορταὶ ὑμῶν εἰς πένθος, καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ εὐφροσύναι ὑμῶν εἰς θρῆνον. |
| 2:7 | καὶ ἔκλαυσα. (7)καὶ ὅτε ἔδυ ὁ ἥλιος. ᾠχόμην καὶ ὀρύξας ἔθαψα αὐτόν. |
| 2:8 | καὶ οἱ πλησίον ἐπεγέλων λέγοντες Οὐκέτι φοβεῖται φονευθῆναι περὶ τοῦ πράγματος τούτου· καὶ ἀπέδρα, καὶ ἰδοὺ πάλιν θάπτει τοὺς νεκρούς. |
| 2:9 | καὶ ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ νυκτὶ ἀνέλυσα θάψας, καὶ ἐκοιμήθην μεμιαμμένος παρὰ τὸν τοῖχον τῆς αὐλῆς, καὶ τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἀκάλυπτον ἦν. |
| 2:10 | καὶ οὐκ ᾔδειν ὅτι στρουθία ἐν τῷ τοίχῳ ἐστίν· καὶ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν μου ἀνεῳγότων, ἀφώδευσαν τὰ στρουθία θερμὸν εἰς τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, καὶ ἐγενήθη λευκώματα εἰς τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου· καὶ ἐπορεύθην πρὸς ἰατρούς, καὶ οὐκ ὠφέλησάν με· Ἀχιάχαρος δὲ ἔτρεφέν με ἕως οὗ ἐπορεύθην εἰς τὴν Ἐλλυμαίδα. |
| 2:11 | Καὶ ἡ γυνή μου Ἅννα ἠριθεύετο ἐν τοῖς γυναικείοις· |
| 2:12 | καὶ ἀπέστελλε τοῖς κυρίοις, καὶ ἀπέδωκαν αὐτῇ καὶ αὐτοὶ τὸν μισθόν, προσδόντες καὶ ἔριφον. |
| 2:13 | ὅτε δὲ ἦλθεν πρὸς μέ, ἤρξατο κράζειν· καὶ εἶπα αὐτῇ Πόθεν τὸ ἐρίφιον; μὴ κλεψιμαῖόν ἐστιν; ἀπόδος αὐτὸ τοῖς κυρίοις· οὐ γὰρ θεμιτόν ἐστιν φαγεῖν κλεψιμαῖον. |
| 2:14 | ἡ δὲ εἶπεν Δῶρον δέδοταί μοι ἐπὶ τῷ μισθῷ. καὶ οὐκ ἐπίστευον αὐτῇ, καὶ ἔλεγον ἀποδιδόναι αὐτὸ τοῖς κυρίοις, καὶ ἠρυθρίων πρὸς αὐτήν· (²²)ἡ δὲ ἀποκριθεῖσα εἶπέν μοι Ποῦ εἰσιν αἱ ἐλεημοσύναι σου καὶ αἱ δικαιοσύναι σου; ἰδοὺ γνωστὰ πάντα μετὰ σοῦ. |

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.
