7:54-55 According to the PSI reconstruction,^[1] the recto reads:

επ α̣υ̣τ̣ο̣[ν πληρηϲ
δε ϋπ̣[αρχων
πν̅ι α̣[γιω ατε-
νιϲα[ϲ ειϲ τον

demonstrating a transposition of πληρηϲ and ϋπ̣αρχων, and a change from the genitive πν̅ϲ α̣γιου to the dative πν̅ι α̣γιω, as compared to the reading in most manuscripts of Acts.

οµοθ]υµαδο[ν
επ αυ]τον εκ-
βαλον]τεϲ δε
εξω τη]ϲ πολε
ωϲ ελιθο]β̣[ολουν

showing the omission of και at the beginning of verse 58.
