... [to the Vizier] Nefer-renpet: In life, health, and prosperity. This is a message to inform my lord. It is also another communication to my lord that we are working very diligently for the Pharaoh in perfect work and in excellent work [as] work of eternity. And we also do not demand any items. ... to inform my lord about: the wood, the herb, the olive oil, the fish, these clothes, this ointment, this provision, which my lord himself has arranged for us as a livelihood.
... [an den Wesir] Nefer-renpet: In Leben-Heil-und-Gesundheit. Eine Sendung ist dies um meinen Herrn in Kenntnis zu setzen. Eine weitere Mitteilung an meinen Herrn darüber ist es, daß wir für den Pharao sehr ordentlich arbeiten in vollkommener Arbeit und in vortrefflicher Arbeit [als] Arbeit der Ewigkeit. Und wir fordern auch keinerlei Sachen. ... um meinen Herrn darüber in Kenntnis zu setzen: über das Holz, das Kraut, das Olivenöl, den Fisch, diese Kleidung, diese Salbe, diese Provision, die mein Herr selbst für uns angeordnet hat als ein Lebensunterhalt.
