(Last line of section 12: Construction of a ramp): Each of its (the ramp's) compartments measures 30 cubits (in length) - the width is 7 cubits. (Oh) Mapu! Descend, (you) vigilant scribe, who stands at the head of the army, with an excellent position at the great double gate, (and) with a pleasing bow under the (appearance) window! An official letter (a dispatch) from the (crown) prince in (?) the area of the Ka Canal has arrived, to please the Gold Horus, to calm 〈him〉 in his wrath with the words: An obelisk has been newly made, inscribed with the name of His Majesty LHG, measuring 110 cubits (in length) at the edge of the pillar (lit.: pillar of the nose) - its base measures 10 cubits (in width?). The circumference of its lower end (i.e., the base) amounts to 7 cubits (in length) on all 〈its sides〉. With (a tapering of) 1 cubit, it runs along the slope up to the area of the peak. Its pyramidion measures 1 cubit 〈+x?〉 in height. Its tip/cap (?) measures 2 fingerbreadths. Third month of the summer season, day 16.

Steig hinab, (du) wachsamer Schreiber, der an der Spitze des Heeres steht, mit ausgezeichneter Stellung am großen Doppeltor, (und) mit wohlgefälliger Verbeugung unter dem (Erscheinungs)fenster! Ein amtliches Schreiben (eine Depesche) von Seiten des (Kron)prinzen in (?) der Gegend des Ka-Kanals ist angekommen, um den Goldhorus zu erfreuen, um 〈ihn〉 in seiner Wut zu beruhigen mit den Worten: Ein Obelisk ist neu hergestellt worden, graviert auf den Namen seiner Majestät LHG, von 110 Ellen (Länge) an der Pfeilerkante (wörtl.: Pfeiler der Nase) - sein Sockel beträgt 10 Ellen (in der Breite?). Der Umfang seines unteren Endes (d.h. die Grundfläche) beläuft sich auf 7 Ellen (Länge) an allen 〈seinen Seiten〉. Mit (einer Verjüngung von) 1 Elle geht es an der Böschung entlang bis zum Bereich der Spitze. Sein Pyramidion beträgt 1 Elle 〈+x?〉 in der Höhe. Seine Spitze/Haube (?) beträgt 2 Fingerbreite.
