[Caption to large-format king figure on throne, left of Egyptian field camp:] (This is) the perfect god, with powerful strength and great victories, who slaughters all foreign lands, who causes a great bloodbath among their great ones (= rulers), the king of Upper and Lower Egypt Usermaatre-setepenre, the son of Re Ramses-meriamun, to whom eternal life has been granted. [Caption next to the motif of the beaten Hittite scouts, under the throne of the king figure] [§ 8] The scout of Pharaoh LHG came with two scouts of the miserable enemy of Chatti before Pharaoh LHG. Then they were beaten to make them reveal the (place) where the miserable great one (= prince) of Chatti is located. [Caption before Naruna relief troops, directly to the right outside the field camp] [§11] The Naruna of Pharaoh LHG came from the land of Amur. They found that the troops of the enemies of Chatti had surrounded the field camp of Pharaoh LHG, while His Majesty sat alone (in the field camp) and [his] army was not [with] him. ... and the Naruna fought with them as they (= Hittites) were just entering the camp, and the servants killed them.

[Beischrift zu großformatigen Königsfigur auf Thron, links von ägyptischem Feldlager:] (Das ist) der vollkommene Gott, mit machtvoller Kraft und großen Siegen, der alle Fremdländer schlachtet, der ein großes Blutbad unter ihren Großen (= Herrschern) anrichtet, der König von Ober- und Unterägypten Usermaatre-setepenre, der Sohn des Re Ramses-meriamun, dem ewiglich Leben gegeben ist. [Beischrift neben Motiv der verprügelten hethitischen Kundschafter, unter thronender Königsfigur] [§ 8] Der Kundschafter des Pharao LHG kam mit zwei Kundschaftern des elenden Feindes von Chatti vor Pharao LHG. Dann verprügelte man sie, um sie den (Ort) verraten zu lassen, an dem sich der elende Große (= Fürst) von Chatti aufhält. [Beischrift vor Naruna-Entsatztruppen, rechts direkt außerhalb des Feldlagers] [§11] Die Naruna des Pharao LHG kamen aus dem Land Amur. Sie stellten fest, dass die Truppen der Feinde von Chatti das Feldlager des Pharao LHG umzingelt hatten, während Seine Majestät allein (im Feldlager) saß (und) [sein] Heer nicht [be]i ihm war. ... und die Naruna kämpften mit ihnen, als sie (= Hethiter) (gerade) in das Heerlager eindrangen, Und die Diener töteten sie.
