THE PAPYRUS OF ANI
THE EGYPTIAN BOOK OF THE DEAD
Translated by E.A. Wallis Budge
Part 78
[HERE] BEGIN THE CHAPTERS OF SEKHET-HETEPET, AND THE CHAPTERS OF
COMING FORTH BY DAY, OF ENTERING INTO AND COMING FORTH FROM
KHERT-NETER, OF ARRIVING IN SEKHET-AANRU, AND OF LIVING IN PEACE IN
THE GREAT CITY, THE LADY OF WINDS. [The Osiris the scribe Ani, whose
word is truth, saith:-] Let me be master there. Let me be a khu there.
Let me plough there. Let me reap there. Let me eat there. Let me drink
there. [Let me beget there]. Let me do there all the things which
one doeth upon earth. The Osiris Ani, whose word is truth, saith:-
Horus vanquished Set when [he] looked at the building of
Sekhet-Hetepet. [He] spread air over the Divine Soul in its Egg, in
its day. He delivered the interior of the body of Horus [from the
Akeru Gods]. I have crowned him in the House of Shu. His house is
the stars. Behold, I take up my place in its nomes. He hath guided the
hearts of the Company of the Firstborn Gods. He hath reconciled the
Two Fighters (Horus and Set), the guardians of life. He hath done what
is fair, bringing an offering. He hath reconciled the Two Fighters
with him that belongeth to them. He hath cut off the hairy scalp of
the Two Fighters. He hath destroyed the revolts of [their] children. I
have done away all the evil which attacked their souls. I am master in
[Sekhet-Hetepet]. I know it. I have sailed over its lakes that I might
arrive at the cities thereof. I have made strong my mouth. The
Spirit-souls are ready [to fight], but they shall not gain the mastery
over me. I am equipped in thy Fields, O god Hetep. What thou wishest
thou shalt do, [saith this god].
