, he, the son of Ra, proceeding from Tum. The royal Osiris is
thy son, thou communicatest thy orders to him, thou permittest him
to shine like An of the heavens, the great star who creates his
names,(660) who knows the empyrean and who traverses the interior
of it, he the son of Ra, proceeding from Tum. He rests in the
empyrean, he rejoices in the dusk, he enters in there and comes
forth, the arms of Tonen receive him, the blessed lift him, they
stretch out their hands toward him, the ...(661) guide him. Praise
him ye blessed, exalt the royal Osiris, ye blessed! Rejoice over
him, as over Ra, extol him like Osiris, he has placed your
offerings before you, he accords you the favor of receiving your
portion as his father Ra commanded. He is his darling, he is his
descendant upon the earth, and the blessed show him the way. Let
him arrive in the empyrean, and let him penetrate into the good
Ament. The royal Osiris fixes the crown upon the head of Osiris,
he offers his casket to Seb, he presents Sah with the sceptre, he
gives the royal diadem to him whose name is Ammon.
5 Look at him, ye blessed, let him receive a perfect intelligence,
let him shine like the god of mysteries, deliver him from the gods
of the pillory who fasten to their posts. May they never bind
Osiris to their posts, may they never put him in the place of
destruction, for he is the descendant of Osiris who permits him to
receive the diadem in the empyrean.
6 He is sublime, the spirit of Ra in the Ament, his body is
blessed there, the spirits rejoice when they develop their forms
in the zones of the empyrean, before the soul of Ra, the
inhabitant of the empyrean, and Teb Temt who rests in his
covering. Hail, yes, hail! Hail spirit of Ra, hail, spirit of the
royal Osiris like Temt! Hail, royal Osiris who art Ra, and
reciprocally! O Temt who art Ra, and reciprocally, hail!
7 The royal Osiris is one of you. He gives birth to you, he gives
you your names, he makes you perfect; ha! he sends his body into
you; ha! he is your creator. Look at him, he shines like him who
proceeds from you; he honors his father, perfect, blessed,
blessing his mother; look at him, make his essence sublime and
make him like him who destroys his forms;(662) show the way to his
spirit, set him upon your pedestals, make him rest in his member
