Description	Rahlfs 2182: Fragment containing Psalm 77,48b-52 and 61b-66 The small fragment (4,5 x 2,7 cm) belonged to a codex page, with 11 lines still being visible on the recto and 12 lines on the verso, at a line height of 2 mm. Written in black ink on dark-brown sheep parchment, the codex originally contained ca. 13 x 10 cm text, at 28-30 lines per page. The number of letters per line differed widely, between 22 and 38 letters. At the transition to the verso, verse 61b (και την καλλονην αυτ]ων εις χ[ειρας εχθρου) may have been omitted, with line 13 instead containing 61a (και παρεδωκεν εις αιχμαλωσιαν τη]ν εισχ[υν αυτων). In line 22, the use of αὐτοῦ correlates with the Codex Sinaiticus, contrary to the use of αὐτῶν in Codex Vaticanus.
