It is the servant of the foundation Netjeri-uhem who speaks: Your condition is like life a million times. May Harsaphes, lord of Herakleopolis, act for you, as 〈the servant there〉 wishes. May Ptah, who is south of his wall, greatly refresh your heart with life and a (beautiful) old age! May your reputation be good with the Ka of Harsaphes, lord of Herakleopolis! All gods - may they act for you for millions of years in life, health, and well-being, as the servant there wishes! I say: Let the lord, l.h.g., know that my assistant Netjeri-iam has come, so that he brings 2 Egyptian geese and Greylag geese(?) together with 100 Petech birds and together with 100 plucked Greylag geese. And inform the lord, l.h.g., that one has sent to [...] Sen-meri regarding the delivery of this strong(?) water to me [...].

Es ist der Diener der Stiftung Netjeri-uhem, der spricht: Dein Befinden ist wie das Leben millionenmal. Möge Harsaphes, Herr von Herakleopolis, für dich tätig sein, wie 〈der Diener dort〉 wünscht. Möge Ptah, der südlich von seiner Mauer ist, dein Herz sehr erquicken durch Leben und ein (schönes) Alter! Möge dein Ansehen gut sein beim Ka von Harsaphes, Herr von Herakleopolis! Alle Götter - mögen sie tätig sein für dich Millionen Jahre in Leben, Heil und Gesundheit, wie es der Diener dort wünscht! Ich sage: Lasse den Herrn, l.h.g., wissen, daß mein Gehilfe Netjeri-iam gekommen ist, damit er 2 Bläßgänse und Graugänse(?) bringt zusammen mit 100 Petech-Vögeln und zusammen mit 100 ausgenommenen Graugänsen. Und erstatte Mitteilung dem Herrn, l.h.g., daß man ausgesandt hat zu [...] Sen-meri bezüglich der Übergabe dieses starken(?) Wassers an mich [...].
