An offering which the king gives and Osiris, lord of Busiris, foremost of the westerners, great god, lord of Abydos: an invocation offering of bread, beer, bulls and fowl of the king's acquaintance, one truly beloved of his lord, who fills the heart of the king with his splendour, his beloved of the day until nightfall, one who gives garments to beautiful (women), who gives ornaments to the (ladies) beloved of the king, overseer of precious $nwḏ.pl$-ointments, one who counts the herds of Upper Egypt, who gives meals to the dignitaries, who makes the provisions of the ka-chapels, one who is over the secrets of the morning house, overseer of the workplace Khety, who says: I am one exact, free from obscurity, wise of tongue in the hall of officials, one who performs a task with precision, without any interruption of it. I am one generous, who gives things from the possession of the estate which the Majesty of my lord had given to me. I never did the bidding of any man in counting the herds of the royal palace for the entire time when I performed my task. The revered one, overseer of the workplace, Khety. Der Opferbedarf für deinen Ka. Nimereni.
