Abstract :
Publication of a hitherto unpublished Duke papyrus from sixth century AD Egypt containing, on the recto, LXX Ps. 90, the heading of Ps. 91 and, on the verso, a version of the Lord's Prayer and a doxology. The texts show a number of omissions and variations from the standard textual tradition which always offer inferior readings. Numerous spelling mistakes. The papyrus was probably used as an amulet. The text edition is accompanied by a complete list of papyrological parallels.
