APIS Translation (English)

P. OIM 14066, recto: (Sp.953) (247)O you tribunal which sits in front of the Great One--and vice versa--if you send your messengers for me, I will not come to you. If I move about, (248)I will move about as Min, I will travel as Horus who is in Ut, I have opened up my path as Wepwawet. My face is Sekhmet, (249)...is Nekhbet, my nails are the pigeon of the gods; I will not come to you, I will not return to you until I act the fighter(?) (250)...me--and vice versa; I go all over the Two Lands, I possess my river-banks, I will point a finger to Wadjet. (Sp.954) (251)...Nekhbet, evil... (252)...there is made for me... (253)...I am in the dark, I am allotted into the hand of the Great Lady, I am Hor[us(?)...alive] and young on the night (254)when I departed and returned in the bark of Re that I might give thrones to Nehebkaw. My utterance is made, earth is upon me, Geb is on my vertex, (255)and I will be Wadjet; I WILL SPEAK ABOUT wood for the fire, incense, myrrh, ladanum(?), hekenew-oil, shesat-oil, 'vulture-dirt', 'feather-of-the-field', all heaped together, so that [my] flesh may be anointed with it, and that the Great Lady may be pure. (Sp.955) (256)...Wadjet who lives on...with the Mistress of Pe there; (257)[I am Sekhmet], Bastet the beloved(?)... (258)I am Wadjet when she is sick(?), she who guards the seasons(?) on the day of...[living and] (259)equipped on the vertex of the silent ones from whom I have flown up. The gods have served me, they have seen my soul at my throat as the Mistress of All Years. (260)[BECOMING] A VULTURE.
