ÅB

du som sender bud over havet[^2] og i rørbåter over vannene! Gå avsted, dere raske sendebud, til det ranke folk med den glinsende hud, til det folk som er fryktet viden om, det folk som stadig bruker målesnor[^3] og treder ned, det folk hvis land gjennomskjæres av strømmer!

OTB

som sender budbærere over havet i papyrusbåter over vannene. Gå, raske sendebud, til et høyt og glattfolket folk, til et folk fryktet vidt og bredt, et mektig og aggressivt folk hvis land er delt av elver.
