The multiwavelenth 0.2-200 μm ionic emission line spectrum of the prototypical Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068 is modeled using a two component AGN plus starburst photoionization model. The agreement between the composite model and the observed spectrum is very satisfactory. Far-infrared OH emission lines have also been detected in NGC 1068 with the ISO-LWS spectrometer. This emission has been modeled using a radiative transfer code for both the continuum and the lines. The origin of these lines from both the nucleus and the extended starburst is investigated and discussed.
