EN AI · OpenAI gpt-4o-mini (from scholarly German)
Year 34 under the Majesty of the King of Upper and Lower Egypt, Kheper-ka-Re, the good god, Lord of the Two Lands, lord of ritual practice, beloved of all gods, son of Re, Senwosret, who lives for ever and ever. An offering which the king gives (and) Osiris, Lord of Busiris, Khentamenti, the great god, lord of Abydos: an invocation offering (of) bread, beer, oxen, fowl, a thousand of linen, and all good and pure things of which god lives, to the one dignified in front of the great god, lord of the sky, to the steward Djedj-iqu. As one whom the king knows, one who does all that he praises, did I come from Thebes, commanding troops of recruits, in order to secure the land of the oasis-dwellers, as an efficient official, one known to his lord, one excellent of counsel in the presence (of the king), one whom the officials of the palace distinguished. Then I built this tomb at the Terrace of the Great God, so that I could be in his following, and the soldiers who belong to His Majesty brought offerings to my ka, from his $aq$-loaves and the best of his $hezmen$-loaves, like one does for the emissar of the king, who came to secure the boundaries of His Majesty. The dignified Djedj-iqu. His beloved wife, Qehi, dignified. his beloved son Amenemhat.
