I had some nice English stationery on hand, so I decided to try to make something similar in Greek! It’s not quite the same, but pretty close, eh?

Here’s a clearer view:

Download the full PDF here, so you can print it off yourself!

Printing instructions:
The PDF is formatted as letter size (11×8.5 inches).
Print in horizontal layout and set the scale to “None” or 100%.
Do NOT select “fit to page” or you’ll get the fine print at the bottom of the page.

Enjoy! If you’d like to receive an email when I post things like this in the future, scroll to the bottom of the page, and sign up!

If you’d like to see some more stationery like this feel free to leave a comment below with suggestions for Bible verses, etc, and I’ll see what I can do.

It is unfortunate that Greek fonts which are completely compatible with all the polytonic characters are so hard to find! This post is an attempt to list some of my favorites. It is by no means exhaustive, (see the links at the end of this post for more) but is just a resource to help those looking to replace Times New Roman or Arial with something that looks a little more “fresh”.

These recordings of the Greek New Testament are excellent, but unfortunately only the gospels of Mark and Luke are complete at the time of this writing. Hopefully the rest of the New Testament will follow soon! There are also a smattering of chapters from Acts, 1 Timothy, and even the LXX (Genesis 1).

Buth’s recording of the Gospel of John and 1-3 John are my favorite GNT recordings so far. Buth’s accent and pronunciation is extremely clear and easy to understand. (Here’s a page with sample recordings.) This recording is a bit slower as well, so it’s easier for beginner Greek students to follow along. Highly recommended! I only wish that he would make more CDs!

Ecumenical Patriarchal Text 1904

I just recently ran across the vivlos.net site, and was intrigued because it features both the Old and New Testaments in Greek in a modern pronunciation very similar to what I learned at Greek class! Unfortunately, they are encased in Adobe Flash which has been deprecated… The good news is that there is a NT recording available at YouTube.com (Majority Text)! Beware that this guy can read very fast!! You’ll need your speed-reading glasses to keep up with him. The 1904 Ecumenical Patriarchal Text is available to read along and listen at Bible.is in both Old and New Testaments. You can also download the audio for offline listening, (search for “Greek”, and fill out the form).

You can find a recording of the entire Septuagint (LXX) on YouTube from the “Orthodox Media Network” channel.

Good news! If you have the popular YouVersion Bible app on your phone, then you have free access to these recordings already! Just go the “Languages” option, and select “Ελληνιστική Κοινή”, then BYZ04 and start listening!

Textus Receptus

I just recently heard of these recordings! His pronunciation is very close to π. Ραφαήλ’s (above) and either of these would be a good option in my opinion. If the π. Ραφαήλ’s recording above is too fast for you, then check this one out; he reads at a more “measured” pace. See also this YouTube playlist with the same audio where you can read along as you listen! If you want higher quality audio, check out the 160 kbs download here. The source for these files, as far as I can tell, is: https://christthetruth.net/2012/06/23/free-greek-audio-bible/

Majority Text(?)

Yet another reading of the Greek New Testament with good pronunciation, and a very nice reading voice! (Sounds like a basically modern pronunciation to me). The reader makes it clear that this is not a professional/polished recording, but that they “are meant for my own use, and for my practice in reading the language aloud; if they prove helpful to anyone else, thanks be to God.” Unfortunately you’ll have to download the chapters one by one from his blog post.

The pronunciation in these recordings is a bit different; not quite reconstructed, and not quite modern. Just thought I’d give you one more option to check out if you haven’t found your favorite Greek voice yet!

These recordings are technically Erasmian pronunciation, but still much better than most Englishized “Erasmian” pronunciations out there. Here’s a YouTube playlist with the same recordings.

Interestingly, many Greek NT manuscripts don’t include “all” of the Lord’s Prayer as we usually think of it. The last sentence, “ὅτι σοῦ ἐστιν ἡ βασιλεία καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας. ἀμήν.” is missing from several important witnesses. (The NA28 lists them in the apparatus as: ℵ B D Z 0170 ƒ1 ℓ 2211 lat mae bo^pt; Or). I thought it would be interesting to track down a manuscript that does have it however, so I picked the first one from the list (K) that does include it, and looked it up online. The relevant part of the page is shown below.

As you can see, the whole thing is there. (With an interesting variant of “ἀφίεμεν” instead of “ἀφήκαμεν” as well!)

Here’s the Greek text in Unicode, as found in the 2018 Robinson-Pierpont Byzantine Text.

οὕτως οὖν προσεύχεσθε ὑμεῖς·
Πάτερ ἡμῶν ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς, ἁγιασθήτω τὸ ὄνομά σου· ἐλθέτω ἡ βασιλεία σου· γενηθήτω τὸ θέλημά σου, ὡς ἐν οὐρανῷ, καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς· τὸν ἄρτον ἡμῶν τὸν ἐπιούσιον δὸς ἡμῖν σήμερον· καὶ ἄφες ἡμῖν τὰ ὀφειλήματα ἡμῶν, ὡς καὶ ἡμεῖς ἀφήκαμεν τοῖς ὀφειλέταις ἡμῶν· καὶ μὴ εἰσενέγκῃς ἡμᾶς εἰς πειρασμόν, ἀλλὰ ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ τοῦ πονηροῦ. ὅτι σοῦ ἐστιν ἡ βασιλεία καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας. ἀμήν.
