The servant Mersuitef greets his mistress, the singer of Isis Tener, l.h.g.: In the favor of Amun-Re, the king of the gods. I pray to Re-Harachte, to Amun of Piramesse, l.h.g., to Ptah of Piramesse, l.h.g., to Re of Piramesse, l.h.g., to Seth, who is great in strength from Piramesse, l.h.g., to all gods and goddesses of Piramesse, l.h.g., to the great Ka of Re-Harachte (=Ramses II as a god): Grant that you are healthy, that you live, that you are unharmed, and that you are in the favor of Isis, your mistress - and then I would also like to see you healthy. Furthermore: the chief of the expedition is in good condition, his people are in good condition, and also his children are in good condition. Do not worry about them. We are also in good condition today, but I do not know how it will be for us tomorrow. Good be your well-being. (Sender): The servant Mer-su-itef to his exalted mistress Tel.

Und ferner: der Vorsteher der Expedition ist in gutem Zustand, seine Leute sind in gutem Zustand und auch seine Kinder sind in gutem Zustand. Mache dir keine Sorgen über sie Auch sind wir in guter Verfassung heute, aber ich weiß nicht, wie es uns morgen gehen wird. Gut sei dein Wohlergehen.
