About This Site

A research library for the Septuagint: the full Greek text in Swete's edition with Brenton's English alongside, each side in its own numbering. Every word popup shows a verified parse or says plainly that none is available yet. Nothing here is guessed, and no reading, parse, gloss, or attestation is invented.
