EN AI · OpenAI gpt-4o-mini (from scholarly German)
Praise to Amun-Re-Harachte when he rises {as the Horizontal} 〈in〉 the eastern 〈Horizon〉, [to] fill every land with his perfection by appearing at dawn. The two lands [are illuminated by] his [color]: [The land was] r[ewashed], (shortly) after he had appeared in Egypt (?). He made it shine (brighter) than gold; he illuminated the (earth) circle for the Rechyt people. Everyone blossoms at his sight: The Ancients break into rejoicing before him. The common people dance before his face. His love overflows (the land) like the Nile flood and is intertwined with every body. (He is) gracious to everyone who names him. (Long) ago (???) his fame had hastened. The breath of his nostrils reaches to the end of the (earth) circle - all lands are enclosed in him. To live, one calls his name - never is the land (Egypt) without his call. Rejoice to the Ancestor of the two lands, the life-giver of all people! Come [indeed or similar], that you may save the representative Hay! He is 〈your〉 lustful jackal. [At ___ he is great]. [---] crush the caves (?), which are in [---] [---] stones beneath me; the morning (?) [---] [---]; I want to eat of the bread [---] sacrificial bread [---] [---]

Lobpreis auf Amun-Re-Harachte, wenn er {als Horizontischer} 〈am〉 östlichen 〈Horizont〉 aufgeht, [um] jedes Land mit seiner Vollkommenheit zu erfüllen, indem er im Morgengrauen erscheint. Die beiden Länder [sind erhellt durch] seine [Farbe]: [Das Land wurde] r[eingewaschen], (kurz) nachdem er in Ägypten (erschienen) war (?). Er ließ es (hell)er leuchten als Gold; er erhellte den (Erd)kreis für die Rechyt-Leute. Jedermann blüht bei seinem Anblick auf: Die Altehrwürdigen brechen ihm gegenüber in Jauchzen aus. Die kleinen Leute tanzen vor seinem Antlitz. Seine Liebe überströmt (das Land) wie die Nilflut und ist mit jedem Leib verquickt. (Er ist) ein Gnädiger zu jedermann, der seinen Namen nennt. (Schon) vor langer Zeit (???) war sein Ruhm herbeigeeilt. Der Hauch seiner Nase reicht bis zum Ende des (Erd)kreises - alle Länder sind in ihn eingeschlossen. Um zu leben, nennt man seinen Namen - nie ist das Land (Ägypten) ohne seinen Ruf. Jubelt dem Altvorderen der beiden Länder zu, dem Lebensspender aller Menschen! Komm [doch o.ä.], damit du den Stellvertreter Hay rettest! Er ist 〈dein〉 lüsterner Schakal. [Beim ___ ist er groß]. [---] zerschlagen die Höhlen (?), die im [---] sind [---] [---] Steine unter mir; der Morgen (?) [---] [---]; ich will von dem Brot essen [---] Opferbrot [---] [---]
