(412) 721 To say: The Great One is fallen on his side; 721 he who is in Ndi.t stirs; 721 his head is lifted up by R`; 721 his abomination is to sleep, he hates to be tired. 722 Flesh of N., 722 rot not, decay not, let not thy smell be bad. 722 Thy foot shall not pass over, thy step shall not stride through, 722 thou shalt not tread upon the (corpse)-secretion of Osiris. 723 Thou shalt tiptoe heaven like (the toe-star); thy soul shall be pointed like Sothis (the pointed-star). 723 Soul shalt thou be and soul thou art; honoured shalt thou be and honoured thou art. 723 Thy soul stands there (like a king(?)) among the gods, like Horus who lives in 'Irw. 724 Thy dread gets into the heart of the gods, 724 like (the dread) of the red crown which is on the head of the king of Lower Egypt, like the white crown which is on the head of the king of Upper Egypt, 724 like the lock (of hair) which is upon the head of Mnti.w. 724 Thou layest hold of the hand (lit. arm) of the imperishable stars. 725 Thy bones will not be destroyed; thy flesh will not sicken, N.; 725 thy limbs will not be distant from thee, 725 for thou art as one among the gods. 725 Buto ferries up to thee; Hierakonpolis ferries down to thee, 726 the mnt.t-woman mourns for thee; the 'imi-nt-priest robes himself for thee. 726 A welcome comes out for thee, O N., on the part of thy father; a welcome comes out for thee on the part of R`. 727 The double doors of heaven are open for thee; the double doors of the d.w-stars are open for thee, 727 after thou art descended (in the grave) as the jackal of Upper Egypt, 727 as Anubis on his belly, as Wpi.w who resides in Heliopolis. 728 The great damsel who lives in Heliopolis has given her arm to thee, 728 for thou hast no mother among mankind who has borne thee, 728 for thou hast no father among men who has conceived thee. 729 Thy mother is the great wild-cow who lives in el-K�b, the white crown, the royal head-dress, 729 she with the long feathers, she with the two hanging breasts; 729 she will nurse thee; she will not wean thee. 730 Get up (from) on thy left side, sit (put thyself) on thy right side, O N. 730 Thy places among the gods will remain, while R` leans upon thee with his arm; 730 thy fragrance is as their fragrance; 730 thy sweetness is as the sweetness of the Two Enneads. 731 Thou appearest, N., in the royal head-dress (the things of the forehead), 731 thy hand seizes the Horus-weapon (m), thy fist grasps the dmace, 731 thou standest, N., as he who is in (or, who is chief of) the two 'itr.t-palaces, who judges the words of the gods. 732 Thou belongest to the n.w (-stars), the servants, of R`, who are before the morning star. 732 Thou wilt be born (again) at thy new moons (feasts) like the moon 732 while R` leans upon thee in the horizon, N., 733 and the imperishable stars serve (follow) thee. 733 Command thyself until R` comes, N.; 733 purify thyself; ascend to R`. 733 Heaven will not be empty of thee, N., for ever.

(470) 910 To say: N. knows his mother; N. forgets not his mother; 910 the white crown, the shining, the broad, which dwells in el-K�b, the lady of the great house, 910 the lady of the land worthy of honour, the lady of the secret land, 910 the lady of the marsh of fishermen, the lady of the valley of tp.tiw, 911 the red-coloured, the red crown, the lady of the lands of Buto. 911 "Mother of N.," so said I, 911 "give thy breast to N., that N. may suck therewith." 912 "(My) son N.," so said she, "take to thee my breast; that thou mayest suck it" said she, 912 "that thou mayest live again," so said she, "that thou mayest be (again) small," so said she. 913 "Thou shalt ascend to heaven as a falcon, 913 thy feathers shall be as those of a goose," so said she. 913 Hdhd, bring this to N.; 913 he is the great wild-bull. 914 "Bull of offerings, bow thy horn, 914 let N. pass by; it is N." 914 "Where goest thou?" "N. goes to heaven, in possession of life and joy, 915 that N. may see his, father; that N. may see R`." 915 "Thou are on the way to the high places, to the places of Set." 916 The high places will put him on the places of Set; 916 (even) on that high sycamore cast of the sky, it having bent down, on which the gods sit; 917 for N. is indeed the living falcon, who has explored b.w; 917 for N. is indeed the great helmsman, who has voyaged over the two t-parts of heaven; 917 for N. is indeed he of the great foot, with long stride. 918 N. purifies himself in the Marsh of Reeds; 918 N. dresses himself in the field of Khepri; 918 N. finds R` there. 919 If R` comes forth in the East, he finds N. in the horizon; 919 if R` comes to the West, he finds N. in the possession of life and endurance; 919 every beautiful place where R` goes, he finds N. there.

(674) 1994 To say: I have come to thee, I am thy son; I have come to thee, I am Horus; 1994 I give to thee thy mdw-staff before the spirits and thy nb.tsceptre before the imperishable stars. 1995 [I have found thee assembled], [thy (lit. his) face] like (that of) a jackal, thy (lit. his) seat like (that of) b.wt; 1995 she refreshes thy heart in thy body, in the house of her (lit. thy) father Anubis. 1996 Be pure and sit at the head of those greater than thou. 1996 Thou art seated on thy firm throne, on the throne of the First of the Westerners; 1996 thy tis.w, they are young. 1997. mnt.t salutes thee, like Isis; Hn.t acclaims thee like Nephthys. 1998 Thou standest at the head of the n.wt, of the double palace, like Min; 1998 thou standest at the head of Egyptians (km.tiw), like api; 1998 thou standest at Pdw-s, like Seker. 1999 Thou standest before the Rd-wr-lake. 1999 Thou hast thy 'b-sceptre, thy wire, thy fingernails; which are at hand (lit. "at thy fingers"); 1999 those who are before Thot are slain with the knife, coming from Set. 1999 Thou givest thine arm to the dead, to the spirits, who will take thine arm to the First of the Westerners.

(415) 738 To say: Greetings to thee Ti.t, 738 thou wast on the edge of the great nest which united the god with his brother. 738 Thou wilt be or not be; thou wilt be or not be. 739 Protect the head of N., that it may not detach itself; 739 collect the bones of N., that they may not separate. 739 Mayest thou put the love for N. in the body of every god who will see him.

(675) 2000 To say: O N., "come in peace," says Osiris to thee; 2000 messenger of the Great God, "come in peace," says the Great God to thee. 2001 The double doors of heaven are open for thee; the (double doors of the) d.w-stars are open for thee, 2001 after thou art descended (into the grave) as the jackal of Upper Egypt, 2001 as Anubis on his belly (side), as Hpi.w who resides in Heliopolis. 2002 The great damsel who lives in Heliopolis has given her arm to thee. 2002 O N., thou hast [no] father, among men, who conceived thee; 2002 thou hast no mother, among mankind, who bore thee. 2003 Thy mother is the great wild-cow who lives in el-K�b, 2003 the white crown, the royal head-dress, she with the long feathers (hair?), she with the two hanging breasts, 2003 she will nurse thee; she will not wean thee. 2004 Raise thyself up, N., dress thyself in thy fringed-vestment, the first (best) in the house, 2004 thy d-mace on thine arm, thy Horus-weapon (m) in thy hand, thine m-sceptre on thine arm, thy d-mace in thy hand. 2005 Thou standest as he who is chief of the double 'itr.t-palace, who, judges the words of the gods. 2005 O N., thou belongest to the n.w (-stars), when R` shines behind the morning star. 2006 Lo, no god escapes from what he has said; 2006 he will offer thee thy thousand (loaves) of bread, thy thou sand (mugs) of beer, thy thousand of oxen, thy thousand of geese, 2006 thy thousand of everything on which a god lives. 53. RESURRECTION, TRANSFIGURATION, AND LIFE OF THE KING IN HEAVEN,

(35) And he said : "I will do all that thou hast told me, and I shall bury thee on the day thou diest near Sarah, my father's mother, as thou hast desired thather bones may be near thy bones.

(482) 1002 To say: O father, Osiris N., 1002 raise thyself from thy left side, put thyself on thy right side, 1002 toward this fresh water, which I have given to thee. 1003 O father, Osiris N., 1003 raise thyself from thy left side, put thyself on thy right side, 1003 toward this warm bread, which I have made for thee. 1004 O father, Osiris N., 1004 the double doors of heaven are open for thee; the double doors of the bows are open for thee. 1004 The gods of Buto are filled with compassion 1004 when they come to Osiris at the voice of lamentation of Isis and Nephthys. 1005 The Souls of Buto dance for thee; 1005 they beat their flesh for thee; they smite their arms for thee; 1005 they dishevel their hair for thee; 1005 they say to Osiris: 1006. "Thou art gone, thou art come; thou art awake, thou wast asleep; thou remainest alive. 1007 Stand up, see this; stand up, hear this, 1007 what thy son has done for thee, what Horus has done for thee. 1007 He beats him who beats thee; he binds him who binds thee; 1008 he puts him under his great daughter who is in dm. 1008 (it is) thy great sister who collected thy flesh, who gathered thy hands, 1008 who sought thee, who found thee upon thy side on the shore of Ndi.t, 1009 so that mourning ceased in the two 'itr.t-palaces." 1009 Ye gods, speak to him, bring him to you. 1009 But thou shalt ascend to heaven; thou shalt become Wp.w.wt. 1010 Thy son Horus leads thee on the ways of heaven. 1010 Heaven is given to thee; earth is given to thee; the Marsh of Reeds is given to thee, 1010 together with those two great gods who come from Heliopolis.

(5) it out of the æons of the Fate and lead it up into all the æons [above], it giving to every region its apology and the apology of all the regions and the seals to the tyrants of the king, the Adamas. And it giveth the apology of all the rulers of all the regions of the Left,--whose collective apologies and seals I will one day tell you when I shall tell you the expansion of the universe. "And moreover those receivers lead that soul to the Virgin of Light and that soul giveth the Virgin of Light the seals and the glory of the songs of praise. And the Virgin of Light and also the seven other virgins of the Light together prove that soul and find together their signs in it and their seals and their baptisms and their chrism. And the Virgin of Light sealeth that soul and the receivers of the Light baptize that soul and give it the spiritual chrism; and every one of the virgins of the Light sealeth it with her seals. "And moreover the receivers of the Light hand it over to the great Sabaōth, the Good, who is at the gate of the Life in the region of those of the Right, who is called 'Father.' And that soul giveth him the glory of his songs of praise and his seals and his apologies. And Sabaōth, the Great and Good, sealeth it with his seals. And the soul giveth its science and the glory of the songs of praise and the seals to the whole region of those of the Right. They all seal it with their seals; and Melchisedec, the great Receiver of the Light who is in the region of those of the Right, sealeth that soul and all the receivers of Melchisedec seal that soul and lead it into the Treasury of the Light. "And it giveth the glory and the honour and the laud of the songs of praise and. all the seals of all the regions of the Light. And all those of the region of the Treasury of the Light seal it with their seals and it goeth unto the region of the Inheritance."

(508) 1107 To say: He ascends, who ascends; N. ascends. 1107 Let the lady of Buto rejoice; let the heart of her who dwells in el-K�b be glad 1107 the day that N. ascends there in the place of (or, as representative of) R`. 1108 N. has trodden down for himself thy splendour, 1108 as stairs under his feet, 1108 that N. may ascend thereon to his mother, the living uraeus which is on the head of R`. 1109 Her heart has pity for him; she gives her breast to him, that he may suck it. 1109 "My son," says she, "take to thee my breast, that thou mayest suck it," says she, 1109 "since thou comest not on every one of thy days." 1110 Heaven speaks, the earth quakes; the gods, of Heliopolis shudder 1110 at the voice of the wdn.t-offering (made) before N. 1111 His mother has nourished him-she of Bubastis; 1111 she who dwells in el-K�b has reared him; 1111 she who dwells in Buto has given him her arm. 1112 Behold, he is come; behold, he is come; 1112 behold, N. is come, for life and joy, 1112 and he makes his repast on figs 1112 and on wine which is in the divine vineyard. 1113 The chef who is beside him, he prepares a repast of it for him. 1113 N. runs; his herdsman runs; 1113 his sweetness is the sweetness of Horus; his fragrance is the fragrance of Horus. 1114 To heaven, to heaven, together with the gods of the house of the lion and the falcon; 1114 to heaven, together with the gods of the house of the lion and the falcon, 1114 those at my side accompanying me! 1115 So says Geb, as he seizes N. by his arm, 1115 and as, he guides him through the portals of heaven. 1115 The god is on his throne; it is well that the god is on his throne. 1116 Satis has washed him 1116 with her four bt-pitchers from Elephantin�. 1116 Ho, whence, pray, art thou come, my son, O king? 1116 He is come to the Ennead, to heaven, that he may eat of its bread. 1117 Ho, whence, pray, art thou come, my son, O king? 1117 He is come to the Ennead, to the earth, that he may eat of its bread. 1117 Ho, whence, pray, art thou come, my son, O king? 1117 He is come to the dnddndr-boat. 1118 Ho, whence, pray, art thou come, my son, O king? 1118 He is come to these his two mothers, the two vultures, 1118 They of the long hair and hanging breasts, 1118 who are on the hill of . 1119 They draw their breasts over the mouth of N., 1119 but they do not wean him for ever.

(14) Yet, if one do not recognize them, the obscurations of evil deeds being too great, and flee from them through terror and awe, then, on the Tenth Day, the blood-drinking [deities] of the [Precious]-Gem Order will come to receive one. Thereupon the setting-face-to-face is, calling the deceased by name, thus: O nobly- born, listen. On the Tenth Day, the blood-drinking [deity] of the [Precious] -Gem Order named Ratna-Heruka, yellow of colour; [having] three faces, six hands, four feet firmly postured; the right [face] white, the left, red, the central darkish yellow; enhaloed in flames; in the first of the six hands holding a gem, in the middle [one], a trident-staff, in the last [one], a baton; in the first of the left [hands], a bell, in the middle [one], a skull-bowl, in the last [one], a trident-staff; his body embraced by the Mother Ratna-Krotishaurima, her right [hand] clinging to his neck, her left offering to his mouth a red shell [filled with blood], will issue from the southern quarter of thy brain and come to shine upon thee. Fear not. Be not terrified. Be not awed. Know them to be the embodiment of thine own intellect. [They] being thine own tutelary deity, be not terrified. In reality [they are] the Father-Mother

(422) 752 To say: O N., 752 thou art departed that thou mayest become a spirit, that thou mayest become mighty as a god, an enthroned one like Osiris, 753 since thou hast thy soul in thy body, since thou hast thy might behind thee, 753 since thou hast thy wrr.t-crown on thy head, since thou hast thy misw.t-crown before thee (at hand). 753 Thy face is before thee, thy homage is before thee; 754 the followers of a god are behind thee, the nobles of a god are before thee; 754 they recite: "A god comes, a god comes, N. comes (who shall be) on the throne of Osiris, 754 that spirit comes who is in Ndi.t, that power which is in the Thinite nome." 755 Isis speaks to thee; Nephthys laments for thee. 755 The spirits come to thee, bowing down; they kiss the earth at thy feet, 755 because the terror of thee, N., is in the cities of i. 756 Thou ascendest to thy mother Nut; she lays hold of thine arm; 756 she shows thee the way to the horizon, to the place where R` is. 756 The double doors of heaven are opened for thee, the double doors of b.w are opened for thee. 757 Thou findest R` standing, while he waits for thee. 757 He lays hold of thy hand, he leads thee into the double 'itr.tpalace of heaven, 757 he places thee on the throne of Osiris. 758 O N., the eye of Horus comes to thee, it addresses thee: 758 "Thy soul which is among the gods comes to thee; thy might which is among the spirits comes to thee. 758 A son has avenged his father; Horus has avenged Osiris." 758 Horus has avenged N. on his enemies. 759 Thou standest, N., avenged, equipped as a god, 759 endued with the form of Osiris; on the throne of him who is First of the Westerners, 759 and doest what he was accustomed to do among the spirits, the imperishable stars. 760 Thy son stands on thy throne endued with thy form; 760 he does what thou wast accustomed to do formerly at the head of the living 760 by the command of R`, the Great God. 761. He tills barley, he tills spelt, that he may present thee therewith. 762 O N., all life and health are given to thee, eternity is thine, saith R` to thee, 762 that thou thyself mayest speak after thou hast taken the form of a god, 762 wherewith thou shalt be great among the gods who are over the lake (nti.w-s). 763 O N., thy soul. stands among the gods, among the spirits, 763 it is thus that thy fear is in their hearts. 763 O N., N. stands upon thy throne at the head of the living, 763 it is thus that thy terror is in their hearts. 764 Thy name which is upon the earth lives; thy name which is upon the earth endures; 764 thou wilt not perish; thou wilt not pass, away for ever and ever.

(450) 832 To say: He is gone, who went to his ka; Osiris is gone to his ka; Set is gone to his ka; 832 Mnti-'irti is gone to his ka; N. is gone to his ka. 833 O N., thou art gone, that thou mayest live; thou art gone, that thou mayest not die; 833 thou art gone, that thy spirit may be at the head of the spirits, that thou mayest be powerful at the head of the living; 833 that thou mayest be mighty (a soul), and thou art mighty (a soul); that thou mayest be honoured, and thou art honoured. 834 He who comes, comes; thou shalt not be in need. 834 Thy mother comes to thee, thou shalt not be in need; Nut comes to thee, thou shalt not be in need; 834 the protectress of the great comes to thee, thou shalt not be in need. 835 She protects thee, she prevents thy need, she gives back thy head to thee; 835 she assembles thy bones for thee, she unites thy limbs for thee; 835 she brings thy heart into thy body for thee. 836 Thou art (henceforth?) chief of those who were before thee; 836 thou commandest those who were before thee; 836 thou protectest thy children from sorrow. 836 Thy purity is the purity of the gods, 836 the lords of want, who have gone to their kas.

(96) 1 let it pass, and it is true, that she may be in Heaven with Body and Soul; but with such a Body as Moses and Elias had upon Mount Tabor, in the Apparition before Christ [at his Transfiguration,] viz. that new Body out of the Element; the transitory [corruptible Body] belongs to the Earth, for if we could have subsisted in God, with this [transitory and corruptible] Body, God would not have become Man, and have died for us. Even as all the Apostles of Christ are dead, and yet live; and so may it also be, that the Body of the Virgin was changed into a heavenly, and laid off the earthly. What does that avail us? She is no Goddess.

(12) Again, calling the deceased by name, [address him] thus: O nobly-born, listen undistractedly. Not having been able to recognize when the Peaceful [Deities] shone upon thee in the Bardo above, thou hast come wandering thus far. Now, on the Eighth Day, the blood-drinking Wrathful Deities will come to shine. Act so as to recognize them without being distracted.

(138) For the Goddess bringeth forth the Vast Sun, and the lucent Moon.

(366) 626 To say: O Osiris N., stand up, lift thyself up; 626 thy mother Nut has brought thee forth; Geb has wiped thy mouth for thee. 626 The Great Ennead avenge thee; 626 they put for thee thine enemy under thee. 627 Carry thou (him who is) greater than thou, said they to him, in thy name of "He of the Great Saw Palace." 627 Lift (him up who is) greater than thou, said they, in thy name of "He of the Great Land Nome." 628 Thy two sisters Isis and Nephthys come to thee; they heal thee 628 complete and great, in thy name of "Great Black," 628 fresh and great, in thy name of "Great Green." 629 Behold, thou art great and round like the "Great Round"; 629 behold, thou are bent around, and art round like the "Circle which encircles the nb.wt"; 629 behold, thou art round and great like the "Great Circle which sets." 630 Isis and Nephthys protected thee in Si�t, 630 even their lord in thee, in thy name of "Lord of Si�t"; 630 even their god in thee, in thy name of "God." 631 a. They adore thee, so that thou shalt not (again) withdraw from them, in thy name of "Dw-ntr" (or, "divine Dw"); 631 they take care of thee, so that thou mayest not (again) be angry, in thy name of "Dndr.w-boat." 632 Thy sister comes to thee, rejoicing for love of thee. 632 Thou hast placed her on thy phallus, 632 that thy seed may go into her, (while) it is pointed like Sothis. 632 Horus the pointed has come forth from thee as Horus who was in Sothis. 633 Thou art pleased with him, in his name of "Spirit who was in the Dndr.w-boat"; 633 he avenges thee, in his name of "Horus, the son, who avenges his father."

(417) 741 To say: A Great One slept on his mother, Nut. 741 Thy mother Ti.t clothed thee; 741 she carried thee to heaven, in her name of "Kite," 741 the fondling whom she found, her Horus. 741 Thy Horus is this one, O Isis; mayest thou bring his certificate (lit. arm) to R`, to the horizon.

(362) 605 To say: Father of N., father of N. in darkness, 605 father of N., Atum, in darkness, bring N. to thy side, 606 that he may kindle the light for thee and protect thee, 606 as Nun protected these four goddesses, 606 the day they protected the throne (bed 606 Isis, Nephthys, Neit, rt-tw.

(265) 351 To say: The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for R` that he may ferry over therewith to the horizon, to Harachte. 351 The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for Harachte that he may ferry over therewith to the horizon to R`. 351 The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for N. himself 351 that he may ferry over therewith to the horizon, to R`, to Harachte. 352 The mn`-canal is open; the Winding Watercourse is inundated; 352 the Marshes of Reeds are filled (with water). 353 N. will certainly ferry over to the eastern side of heaven, 353 to the place where the gods will be born, 353 where N. will certainly be born with them, like Horus, like him of the horizon. 354 N. is justified. 354 Praise be to N.; praise be to the ka of N.! 355 Let them be called to N.; 355 let them be brought to N., those four traffic-guards, the wearers of side-locks, 355 who stand on their d`m-sceptres, on the eastern side of the sky, 356 that they may speak the name of N., the good, to R`, 356 (and) that they may proclaim the name of N., the good, to Nbk.w. 356 N. is justified. 356 Praise be to N.; praise be to the ka of N.! 357 The sister of N. is Sothis; the mother of N. is the morning star. 357 N. is that (star) which is with R` on the under (side) of the body of the sky. 357 N. is justified. 357 Praise be to N.; praise be to the ka of N.!

On account of this it is said concerning her that she said, I am part of my mother, and I am the mother. I am the wife, I am the virgin. I am pregnant. I am the midwife. I am the one who comforts during labor pains. My husband produced me, and I am his mother, and he is my father and my lord. He is my potency; what he desires he speaks with reason. I am becoming, but I have borne a lordly man. Now these things were revealed by the will of Sabaoth and his Christ to the souls who will come to the fashioned bodies of the authorities. Concerning these the holy voice said, “Multiply and flourish to rule over all the creatures.” And these are the ones who are taken captive by the chief creator according to their destinies, and thus they were locked in the prisons of the fashioned bodies until the consummation of the age.
