Saying, to breathe air in the realm of the dead and to have access to water From NN, justified, to speak: Oh, Hapi, Great One of the Sky in that your name "Sky Cutter," may you cause that I have access to water like Sekhmet, who cares for Osiris in that night of wrath! Behold, I have led the "Great Ones," who are at the place of abundance, as they always lead their noble god, whose name they do not know. May they lead me likewise! My nose is opened in Busiris. Variant: My mouth and my nose are opened in Busiris. May I rest in Heliopolis, (in) my house, which Seshat has built for me and for whose wall crowns Chnum has guaranteed for me! When this sky comes with a north wind, I sit to the south. When this sky comes with a south wind, I sit to the north. When this sky comes with a west wind, I sit to the east. When this sky comes with an east wind, I sit to the west. I sniff with my nose ("I draw the skin of my nose"); I penetrate to every place ("open every place") where I wish to settle.

Spruch, um im Totenreich Luft zu atmen und über Wasser zu verfügen Von NN, gerechtfertigt, zu sprechen: Oh, Hapi, Großer des Himmels in jenem deinen Namen "Himmelshacker", mögest du veranlassen, daß ich über Wasser verfüge wie Sachmet, die Osiris umsorgt in jener Nacht des Wütens! Siehe, ich habe die "Großen" geführt, die am Ort des Überflusses sind, wie sie stets jenen ihren vornehmen Gott führen, dessen Namen sie nicht kennen. Mögen sie mich genauso führen! Meine Nase ist geöffnet in Busiris. Variante: Mein Mund und meine Nase sind geöffnet in Busiris. Möge ich in Heliopolis ruhen, (in) meinem Haus, das mir Seschat gebaut hat und für dessen Mauerkronen mir Chnum eingestanden ist! Wenn dieser Himmel mit Nordwind kommt, setze ich mich nach Süden. Wenn dieser Himmel mit Südwind kommt, setze ich mich nach Norden. Wenn dieser Himmel mit Westwind kommt, setze ich mich nach Osten. Wenn dieser Himmel mit Ostwind kommt, setze ich mich nach Westen. Ich schnuppere mit meiner Nase ("ich ziehe die Haut meiner Nase"); Ich dringe an jeden Ort vor ("öffne jeden Ort"), wo ich mich niederlassen möchte.
