| 2:1 | Καὶ ἦρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου καὶ εἶδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ σχοινίον γεωμετρικόν. |
| 2:2 | καὶ εἶπα πρὸς αὐτόν Ποῦ σὺ πορεύῃς; καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς μέ Διαμετρῆσαι τὴν Ἰερουσαλήμ, τοῦ ἰδεῖν πηλίκον τὸ πλάτος αὐτῆς ἐστιν καὶ πηλίκον τὸ μῆκος. |
| 2:3 | καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ ἅγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ ἱστήκει, καὶ ἄγγελος ἕτερος ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ, |
| 2:4 | καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν λέγων Δράμε καὶ λάλησον πρὸς τὸν νεανίαν ἐκεῖνον λέγων Κατακάρπαως κατοικηθήσεται Ἰερουσαλὴμ ἀπὸ πλήθους ἀνθρώπων κμὶ κτηνῶν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς· |
| 2:5 | καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτῇ, λέγει Κύριος. τεῖχος πυρὸς κυκλόθεν, καὶ εἰς δόξαν ἔσομαι ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς. |
| 2:6 | ὢ ὢ φεύγετε ἀπὸ γῆς βορρᾶ, λέγει Κύριος, διότι ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων τοῦ οὐρανοῦ συνάξω ὑμᾶς, λέγει Κύριος· |
| 2:7 | εἰς Σειὼν ἀνασώζεσθε, οἱ κατοικοῦντες θυγατέρα Βαβυλῶνος. |
| 2:8 | διότι τάδε λέγει Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ Οπίσω δόξης ἀπέσταλκέν με ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη τὰ σκυλεύσαντα ὑμᾶς, διότι ὁ ἁπτόμενος ὑμῶν ὡς ἁπτόμενος τῆς κόρης τοῦ ὀφθαλμοῦ αὐτοῦ· |
| 2:9 | διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐπιφέρω τὴν χεῖρά μου ἐπʼ αὐτούς, καὶ ἔσονται σκῦλα τοῖς δουλεύουσιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ γνώσεσθε ὅτι Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ ἀπέσταλκέν με. |
| 2:10 | τέρπου καὶ εὐφραίνου, θύγατερ Σειών, διότι ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἔρχομαι καὶ κατασκηνώσω ἐν μέσῳ σου, λέγει Κύριος. |
| 2:11 | καὶ καταφεύξονται ἔθνη πολλὰ ἐπὶ τὸν κύριον ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ ἔσονται αὐτῷ εἰς λαόν, καὶ κατασκηνώσουσιν ἐν μέσῳ σου, καὶ ἐπιγνώσῃ ὅτι Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ ἐξαπέσταλκέν με πρὸς σέ. |
| 2:12 | καὶ κατακληρονομήσει Κύριος τὸν Ἰούδαν, τῇ μερίδι αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τὴν ἁγίαν, καὶ αἱρετιεῖ ἔτι τὴν Ἰερουσαλήμ. |
| 2:13 | εὐλαβείσθω πᾶσα σὰρξ ἀπὸ προσώπου Κυρίου, ὅτι ἐξεγήγερται ἐκ νεφελῶν ἁγίων αὐτοῦ. |

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.
