Yes, I have heard it. Yes, the steward of the god's offering Sobeknacht has sent out to have him brought ... the share (?) [from] the (pyramid complex) 'Sesostris, the Justified, is satisfied' 〈saying〉 I will arrange for this one bull to be brought to you. But this temple worker did not obey, to bring it. But they may be brought to you in [Month 2 of the Shemu season, on the day] 12. Yes, I have understood. Have you (then) sent the workers - 〈they〉 were not received? Take half of it from the (mortuary temple) 'Sesostris, the Justified, is powerful'. May you send the corresponding workers.
Ja, ich habe es gehört. Ja, der Hausvorsteher des Gottesopfers Sobeknacht hat ausgesandt, ihn darbringen zu lassen ... den Anteil (?) [aus] der (Pyramidenanlage) 'Sesostris, der Gerechtfertigte, ist zufrieden' 〈sagend〉 Ich werde veranlassen, daß man dir diesen einen Stier bringt. Aber dieser Tempelarbeiter hat nicht gehorcht, es zu bringen. Aber sie mögen dir gebracht werden im [Monat 2 der Schemu-Zeit, am Tag] 12. Ja, ich habe es verstanden. Hast du (denn) die Arbeiterin(nen) geschickt - 〈sie〉 wurden nicht empfangen ? Nimm die Hälfte davon vom (Totentempel) 'Sesostris, der Gerechtfertigte, ist mächtig'. Mögest Du die zugehörigen Arbeiterin(nen) schicken.

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by ORAEC (Online Resource for Ancient Egyptian Corpus).
- AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
- Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
