Theoretical energy levels of the n = 1 and n = 2 states of hydrogen-like atoms with the nuclear charge numbers 1 ≤ Z ≤ 110 are tabulated. The tabulation is based on ab initio quantum electrodynamics calculations performed to all orders in the nuclear binding strength parameter Zα, where α is the fine structure constant. Theoretical errors due to various effects are critically examined and estimated.
