Description	P.Bouriant 2; P. Sorbonne 827; inv. Rahlfs 2050; van Haelst 145: Codex page containing Psalms 39–41 This sheet of a single-column codex (21 x 14.5 cm) contained 27 lines per page. The recto features Psalm 39,15–40,7, the verso Psalm 40,7–41,5. Due to a vertical strip of papyrus missing, the beginnings on the recto and ends of the verso are extant (1–4 characters). Verses 11 and 12 of Ps. 40 are omitted, a scribal error caused by verse 10 and 12 both ending with the words ἐπ' ἐμί due to an inversion. The start of a psalm is clearly marked: at the beginning of Psalm 41, the number ΜΑ remains, protruding on the left of the text block, as well as the psalm title. Nomina sacra: κς, κε, θς, θν.
