A message for the Lord, l.h.g., is as follows: The servant has said that the Lord, l.h.g., has reached (the mortuary temple named) 'Sesostris, the Justified, is powerful' in the 4th month of the season of Shemu, on the 10th day. How terrible it is that you have come safely and unharmed.
DE scholarly · TLA / ORAEC
Eine Mitteilung für den Herrn, l.h.g., ist es, wie folgt: Der Diener da hat gesagt, daß der Herr, l.h.g., (den Totentempel Namens) 'Sesostris, der Gerechtfertigte, ist mächtig' im 4. Monat der Schemu-Zeit, am 10. Tag erreicht hat. Wie übel ist, daß du wohlbehalten und unversehrt gekommen bist.
