The one of Behdet. The one of Behdet. King of Upper and Lower Egypt 𓍹Kha-kheper-re𓍺, one strong of arm, lord of ritual practices. Horus Seshemu-tawi, given life like Re forever. (Sesostris II.), beloved of (Sopdu) Sopdu, Lord of Ta-shezmet, Lord of the East. Recitation: Herewith I give you all joy. Recitation: Herewith I give you all health before me. All life, stability and power are for your nostrils, good god! Year 1: establishing his monument in the God's Land. The seal-bearer of god, true acquaintance of the king, his beloved and trusted, one who is in the heart of his lord, one who knows the laws, experienced in action, loyal to the one who promoted him, who does not transgress the instruction of the palace and the utterance of the palace, the unique one of the king, who was transformed in the palace, a pupil of Horus (or: whom Horus educated), Lord of the Two Lands, one who presents the courtiers to the king, truly accurate like Thoth, the chamberlain Khnumhotep. Der Vorsteher des Per-qa, Neferhotep. Der Verwalter der Kammer, Nebschabet.
