Praise to you, worship to your majesty, kissing the earth of your secret statue, Horus the Behdetite, the great god, lord of the sky, him of the dappled plumage, who comes forth from the horizon, the foremost of the Double Sanctuary of the north; Dwn-ʿnwy who spreads his wing in the sky, flying the sky with his both wings, who belongs to Egypt; the noble sacred falcon image, he illuminates the two lands with his divine eyes; the divine falcon image of Horus stands upon his tail, his wings are opened behind him, his throne takes the form of a lion, sitting before him to the limit of Re, wearing the white crown united with the red crown, crowning his head with the double crown, sharp of horns, pointed of horns, his two-featherd crown, it reaches the sky, one of the raised arm, one who boasts of his 'beauty', who inspires fear with his own 'member'. The great vulture enclosing the back of his head and protecting his body with her wings, lady of Hehet. He rules Khet, gathering tribute from Teferret. His noble statue rests in the Great Place {Edfu}, enduring on his seat before Mesen, his favoured beloved son, King of Upper and Lower Egypt, making this monument as his house. ~translation by A.
