An offering which the king gives and Anubis who is upon his mountain, who is in the embalming place, Lord of the Sacred Land: an invocation offering [of ... ...] and of every good and pure [thing] (to) the seal-bearer of the king, the sole friend (of the king), the trusted one of his lord, great in the secret place of joy, the dignified royal chamberlain, Heny, who says: I spent a period long of years following my lord, Horus Wahankh, King of Upper and Lower Egypt, son of Re, Antef the Elder, born (of) Neferut, to all his beautiful places. There never happened anything (bad) in it, because of my knowing things. I am a character beloved in the house of his lord, one respectful (lit. who bends (his) arm) among his dependants. I did not slander a man to the ruler, I did not create any disturbance (?) at the double gate. I was indeed a servant excellent of (his) personal affairs, one beloved of his lord, his praised one, one foremost of place in the house of his lord. I followed him, night and day, to his every good place, because he loved me. I was his trusted servant in the secret hall of solitude. Never did a man act as my mouth there, I reported to my lord myself. O you living ones who are upon the earth, who love life and hate passing, who shall pass by this tomb, may you say: "A thousand of bread and beer, a thousand of bulls and fowl, a thousand of alabaster and clothing, a thousand of all things for the dignified royal chamberlain Heny. Giving an entitlement (lit. document) to the choice pieces of meat and necessary offerings provided on the monthly and half-monthly festival and on all festivals for the ka of the dignified royal chamberlain and sealer Heny, born of Khuy[t]. Giving a foreleg of a bull to the dignified Heny by his funerary foundation servant Heny. To your ka, lord of charm, dignified and beloved one! Giving incense to his ka by the servant of his funerary estate $Nḫt-mnzꜣ$.
