Words speak, continuously: O Trembler(?), ferryman of the $pꜣꜥ.t$-field! Pepi is the guardian of your cattle, he who is responsible for your birthplace. Pepi is your potter on earth, who broke the $(tj)tm.t$, whom Nut has borne. He has come and brings you this your house, which he has shaped for you in the night of your birth, on the day of your birthplace: This is a $ḏwj.w$-jug. You are a $bs$ one who does not know his father; you do not know your mother. May he not call you among those who do not know you, so that they may know you. Set him quickly over to the landing place of that field of the deeds of the gods, over which the gods rejoice on these their days of the New Year festivals.
Worte sprechen, fortlaufend: O Zitternder(?), Fährmann des $pꜣꜥ.t$-Gefildes! Pepi ist der Hüter deiner Rinder, der, der für deine Geburtsstätte zuständig ist. Pepi ist dein Töpfer auf Erden, der $(tj)tm.t$ zerbrach, den Nut geboren hat. Er ist gekommen und bringt dir dieses dein Haus, das er für dich geformt hat in der Nacht deiner Geburt, am Tag deiner Geburtsstätte: Das ist ein $ḏwj.w$-Krug. Du bist ein $bs$ einer, der seinen Vater nicht kennt; du kennst nicht deine Mutter. Möge er dich nicht denen nennen, die dich nicht kennen, so daß sie dich kennen. Setze ihn eilends über zu der Landungsstelle jenes Gefildes des Tuns der Götter, über das die Götter sich freuen an diesen ihren Tagen der Jahresanfangfeste.
