After I came out of my city and went out of my district, I was buried in this my tomb because I spoke the truth, which the god loves daily. This is a good thing. I spoke before the king, as it is useful for man. I never said any evil thing.
Nachdem ich aus meiner Stadt kam und aus meinem Gau herausging, wurde ich in diesem meinen Grab bestattet, weil ich die Wahrheit, die der Gott täglich liebt, sprach. Das ist ein Gutes. Ich sprach vor dem König, indem (es) nützlich für den Menschen ist. Niemals sagte ich irgendeine böse Sache.

- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
