Third month of the summer season, day 23. The following: I have been told that you have abandoned the writing (literally: thrown away, laid down) and that you have rolled around in pleasures (?). You have turned your back to the words of the god (literally: thrown your back to the words of the god); you have forsaken this office of Thoth. Your heart ignores me. You are too confused (?) / foolish to lead others. [You ... ... ...], to create the sound of the uproar. [... ... ..., ... ... ... (a wooden object)]. You flee/hasten (on all fours) before the youths (or: at the head of the youths), [... ... ...] [... ... ...] one is heated (?), after having given your [... ... ...]. [... ... ...]. You/your [...] fish of the Nubian, as your [... ... ...] [... ... ...] apes touch (?) you, on the road [... ... ... ... ... ...] there in/among birds (?) [... ... ... [... ... ...] 〈You〉 have not captured them/him at all / 〈You〉 cannot capture them/him at all (?). You are on your way, equipped with your ignorance, as a leader at their head. The rejoicing/lamenting troop (?) passes by. You look astonished (?); your hand is at your temple. You have lent (literally: laid down, entrusted) your ear to the lamenter, without [... ...] descending today (?) with you. The sun disk will rise and it will set (in) its mountain; and 〈you〉 will continue to walk around empty, without your commission. You are like Sul/Suneru, the fool. 〈End.〉

Dritter Monat der Sommerzeit, Tag 23. Folgendes: Man hat mir gesagt, daß du das Schreiben aufgegeben (wörtl.: weggeworfen, abgelegt) hast und daß du dich in Vergnügungen herumgewälzt (?) hast. Du hast deinen Rücken den Gottesworten zugewandt (wörtl.: deinen Hinterkopf den Gottesworten zugeworfen); Du hast dieses Amt des Thoth verlassen. Dein Herz ignoriert mich. Du bist zu verwirrt(?)/töricht, um andere zu führen. [Du ... ... ...], um das Geräusch des Aufruhrs zu erzeugen. [... ... ..., ... ... ... (ein hölzerner Gegenstand)]. Du fliehst/eilst (auf allen Vieren) vor den Jünglingen (oder: an der Spitze der Jünglinge), [... ... ...] [... ... ...] man ist erhitzt (?), nachdem man deinen [...] gegeben hat. [... ... ...]. Du/deine [...] Fische des Nubiers, indem dein [... ... ...] [... ... ... Af]fen berühren(?) dich, auf der Straße [... ... ... ... ... ...] dort in/unter Vögeln(?) [... ... ... [... ... ...] 〈Du〉 hast sie/ihn überhaupt nicht erbeutet / 〈Du〉 kannst sie/ihn überhaupt nicht erbeuten.(?) Du bist unterwegs, ausgestattet mit deiner Unwissenheit, als Führer auf dem Weg an ihrer Spitze. Die jubelnde/klagende Truppe (?) zieht vorbei. Du blickst erstaunt(?); deine Hand liegt an deiner Schläfe. Du hast der Klagefrau (dein) Ohr geliehen (wörtl.: hingelegt, überlassen), ohne daß [... ...] heute (?) bei/mit dir hinab[steigen(?) wird]. Die Sonnenscheibe wird aufgehen und sie wird (in) ihrem Berg untergehen; und 〈du〉 wirst (weiterhin) leer (umher)gehen, ohne deinen Auftrag. Du bist wie Sul/Suneru, der Dummkopf. 〈Ende.〉
