| 14:1 | Καὶ ἐπαύσατο ἐξομολογούμενος Γωβείτ. |
| 14:2 | καὶ ἦν ἐτῶν πεντήκοντα ὀκτὼ ὅτε ἀπώλεσεν τὰς ὄψεις, καὶ μετὰ ἔτη ὀκτὼ ἀνέβλεψεν· καὶ ἐποίει ἐλεημοσύνας, (4)καὶ προσέθετο φοβεῖσθαι Κύριον τὸν θεὸν καὶ ἐξωμολογεῖτο αὐτῷ. |
| 14:3 | μεγάλως δὲ ἐγήρασεν· καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Τέκνον, λάβε τοὺς υἱούς σου· ἰδοὺ γεγήρακα, καὶ πρὸς τὸ ἀποτρέχειν ἐκ τοῦ ζῆν εἰμί. |
| 14:4 | ἄπελθε εἰς τὴν Μηδείαν, τέκνον, ὅτι πέπεισμαι ὅσα ἐλάλησεν Ἰωνᾶς ὁ προφήτης περὶ Νινευὴ ὅτι καταστραφήσεται, ἐν δὲ τῇ Μηδείᾳ ἔσται εἰρήνη μᾶλλον ἕως καιροῦ· καὶ ὅτι οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἡμῶν ἐν τῇ γῇ σκορπισθήσονται ἀπὸ τῆς ἀγαθῆς γῆς, καὶ Ἰεροσόλυμα ἔσται ἔρημος καὶ ὁ οἶκος τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν αὐτῇ κατακαήσεται, καὶ ἔρημος ἔσται μέχρι χρόνου. |
| 14:5 | καὶ πάλιν ἐλεήσει αὐτοὺς ὁ θεὸς καὶ ἐπιστρέψει αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν, καὶ οἰκοδομήσουσιν τὸν οἶκον, οὐχ οἷος ὁ πρότερος, ἕως πληρωθῶσιν καιροὶ τοῦ αἰῶνος. καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐπιστρέψουσιν ἐκ τῶν αἰχμαλωσιῶν καὶ οἰκοδομήσουσιν Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἐντίμως, καὶ ὁ οἶκος τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν αὐτῇ οἰκοδομηθήσεται ἐνδόξως, καθὼς ἐλάλησαν περὶ αὐτῆς οἱ προφῆται. |
| 14:6 | καὶ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ἐπιστρέψουσιν ἀληθινῶς φοβεῖσθαι Κύριον τὸν θεόν· κατορύξουσιν τὰ εἴδωλα αὐτῶν· |
| 14:7 | καὶ εὐλογήσουσιν πάντα τὰ ἔθνη Κύριον. καὶ ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ ἐξομολογήσεται τῷ θεῷ, καὶ ὑψώσει Κύριος τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ· καὶ χαρήσονται πάντες οἱ ἀγαπῶντες Κύριον τὸν θεὸν ἐν ἀληθείᾳ καὶ δικαιοσύνῃ, ποιοῦντες ἔλεος τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς ἡμῶν. |
| 14:8 | καὶ νῦν, τέκνον, ἄπελθε ἀπὸ Νινευή, ὅτι πάντως ἔσται ἃ ἐλάλησεν ὁ προφήτης Ἰωνᾶς. |
| 14:9 | σὺ δὲ τήρησον τὸν νόμον καὶ τὰ προστάγματα, καὶ γενοῦ φιλελεήμων καὶ δίκαιος, ἵνα σοι καλῶς ἦν. |
| 14:10 | καὶ θάψον με καλῶς, καὶ τὴν μητέρα σου μετʼ ἐμοῦ, καὶ μηκέτι αὐλισθῆτε εἰς Νινευή. τέκνον, ἴδε τί ἐποίησεν Ἀδὰμ Ἀχιαχάρῳ τῷ θρέψαντι αὐτόν, ὡς ἐκ τοῦ φωτὸς ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ σκότος καὶ ὅσα ἀνταπέδωκεν αὐτῷ· καὶ Ἀχιάχαρον μὲν ἔσωσεν, ἐκείνῳ δὲ τὸ ἀνταπόδομα ἀπεδόθη, καὶ αὐτὸς κατέβη εἰς τὸ σκότος. Μανασσῆς ἐποίησεν ἐλεημοσύνην, καὶ ἐσώθη ἐκ παγίδος θανάτου ἧς ἔπηξεν αὐτῷ, Ἀδὰμ δὲ ἐνέπεσεν εἰς τὴν παγίδα καὶ ἀπώλετο. |
| 14:11 | καὶ νῦν, παιδία, ἴδετε τί ἐλεημοσύνη ποιεῖ καὶ δικαιοσύνη ῥύεται. καὶ ταῦτα αὐτοῦ λέγοντος ἐξέλιπεν αὐτοῦ ἡ ψυχὴ ἐπὶ τῆς κλίνης· ἦν δὲ ἐτῶν ἑκατὸν πεντήκοντα ὀκτώ· καὶ ἔθαψεν αὐτὸν ἐνδόξως. |
| 14:12 | Καὶ ὅτε ἀπέθανεν Ἅννα, ἔθαψεν αὐτὴν μετὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ· ἀπῆλθεν δὲ Τωβίας μετὰ τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ εἰς Ἐκβάτανα πρὸς Ῥαγουὴλ τὸν πενθερὸν αὐτοῦ. |
| 14:13 | καὶ ἐγήρασεν ἐντίμαως, καὶ ἔθαψεν τοὺς πενθεροὺς αὐτοῦ ἐνδόξως, καὶ ἐκληρονόμησεν τὴν οὐσίαν αὐτῶν καὶ Τωβεὶτ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ. |
| 14:14 | καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐτῶν ἑκατὸν ἑπτὰ ἐν Ἐκβατάνοις τῆς Μηδείας. |
| 14:15 | καὶ ἤκουσεν πρὶν ἢ ἀποθανεῖν αὐτὸν τὴν ἀπωλίαν Νινευὴ ἣν ᾐχμαλώτισεν Ναβουχοδονοσὸρ καὶ Ἀσύηρος· ἐχάρη πρὸ τοῦ ἀποθανεῖν ἐπὶ Νινευή. ἀμήν. |

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.
