[...] the king of Upper and Lower Egypt 𓍹Osiris(𓍺) speaks to the vizier Chontamenti, to [...] work (?), sent (?) to the earth, to eliminate the male and female enemy. [...] make against (?) me [...] [u]nd (?) you take (?) from it with your left hand [...] the $nsy.t$-demon. Good! Good! Remedy for eliminating the $mḥꜣ$ skin rashes (?) on [any (?)] limbs [of man (?)] [...]: [...] thereupon, and you give cattle dung, and you give the lower [on top (?)] [...] him / it, until he / it becomes warm. Remedy for eliminating an injury on any limbs: $jbsꜣ$-fruit/plant from the field: 1, $šꜣšꜣ$-fruit/plant: 1, fruits of the $ḥbt$-plant: 1, sweet (i.e., fragrant) fat: 1, ointment oil of the best quality: 1, honey: 1; be connected with this; for four days. Good! Good! Scroll for eliminating a $nsy$-demon and a $nsy.t$-demoness: Back you! Fall 〈upon〉 your face. You shall not be in the sky. You shall not be in the earth. You are not in the underworld. You are not in the primeval flood. You are not in living beings. You are not in a god (or) a goddess. You shall not come against NN., born of NN., nor shall you attack him. You shall not do your usual things to him. Beware, to consume his limbs, on the NN., born of NN. Another spell: Oh, you four $ꜣḫ$-spirits, who are those that watch over Osiris: As for the watching that you do over Osiris, do this also over NN., born of NN., to prevent any dead person, any dead woman, any adversary (or) any adversary woman from killing him, who is on any limb of NN., born of NN. Fourfold (?) is the name of you four (?).

[...] der König von Ober- und Unterägypten 𓍹Osiris(𓍺) spricht zum Wesir Chontamenti, zu [...] Arbeit (?), gesandt (?) zur Erde, um zu beseitigen den männlichen und weiblichen Feind. [...] machen gegen (?) mich [...] [u]nd (?) du nimmst (?) daraus mit deiner linken Hand [...] den $nsy.t$-Dämon. Gut! Gut! Heilmittel zum Beseitigen der $mḥꜣ$-Hautausschläge (?) an [jedweden (?)] Gliedern [des Mannes (?)] [...]: [...] daran, und du gibst Rinderkot, und du gibst das Untere [zuoberst (?)] [...] ihn / es, bis er / es warm wird. Heilmittel zum Beseitigen einer Verletzung an jedweden Gliedern: $jbsꜣ$-Frucht/Pflanze vom Feld: 1, $šꜣšꜣ$-Frucht/Pflanze: 1, Früchte der $ḥbt$-Pflanze: 1, süßes (d.h. wohlriechendes) Fett: 1, Salböl bester Qualität: 1, Honig: 1; werde damit verbunden; vier Tage lang. Gut! Gut! Buchrolle zum Beseitigen eines $nsy$-Dämons und einer $nsy.t$-Dämonin: Zurück du! Falle 〈auf〉 dein Gesicht. Du sollst nicht sein im Himmel. Du sollst nicht sein in der Erde. Nicht bist du in der Unterwelt. Nicht bist du in der Urflut. Nicht bist du in Lebewesen. Nicht bist du in einem Gott (oder) einer Göttin. Du sollst nicht kommen gegen NN., den geboren hat die NN., noch sollst du über ihn herfallen. Du sollst nicht tun deine üblichen Dinge an ihm. Hüte dich, zu fressen seine Gliedmaße, an dem NN., den geboren hat die NN. Ein anderer Spruch: Oh, ihr vier $ꜣḫ$-Geister, die es sind, die über Osiris wachen: Was das Wachen betrifft, das ihr über Osiris macht, macht dies auch über NN. den geboren hat die NN., um zu verhindern, dass ihn tötet irgendein Toter, irgendeine Tote, irgendein Widersacher (oder) irgendeine Widersacherin, die sind an irgendeinem Körperglied des NN., den geboren hat die NN. Vierheit (?) ist der Name von euch vier (?).
