The singer of the overseer of the expedition Pa-en-ta-hut-resu ... (of) Amun, [to the] scribe Bu-teh-Imen ..., the confidant Ach-menu, the craftsman ..., [to?] the singer of Amun-Re, the king of the gods Hemet-scherit and the singer ...: In life-health-and-wellness and in the favor of Amun-Re, the king of the gods. The following: I pray daily to Amun-Re, Harachte, when he rises and sets, to Chnum, to Satet and Anukis, to all the gods of Elephantine: May you be granted life-health-and-wellness, a long life, a sublime and perfect old age. The following: And you (fem.) look after the little boys. Do not allow any injustice to be done against them and do not be negligent towards my father. And you (fem.) shall further arrange for this spear to be made, about which I said that it should be made. And you shall arrange for some sweets to be made, so that he fills a Medjeqet-jar (with them) before his 〈arrival〉. And to inform the scribe Bu-teh-Imen as follows: Your father had the letter brought to me with the words: 'Let them (the people) bring it (the letter) to you.' He sent to me the words: 'As for all the letters that your brother had brought to me - your name was on them' - so he said. Arrange for one to be made from there, so that it can be brought to him - so he said. Now - I have laid it (the matter) before Chnum (in the oracle) and he (Chnum) answered literally: 'He will be unharmed' - so he said to the singer of Amun Tuai and the scribe Hori. It is every brother of mine who has inclined his face to my ... because of them. Receive Tai-medja ... [and] send to me regarding the youths ... before Chnum. He (Chnum) says: [I will?] ... The singer Pa-en-ta-hut-resu ...
