My mouth is opened by Ptah,
My mouth's bonds are loosed by my city-god.
Djehuty has come fully equipped with spells,
He looses the bonds of Set from my mouth.
Atum has given me my hands,
They are placed as guardians.
My mouth is given to me,
 
My mouth is opened by Ptah,
With that chisel of metal
With which he opened the mouth of the gods.
I am Sekhmet-Wadjet who dwells in the west of heaven,
I am Sahyt among the souls of On.
