The Papyrus of Ani, Chapter 10, aka Chapter 48

Text:

[This chapter has two numbers because it appears twice in the papyrus of Iwef-Ankh, upon which the numbering scheme is based.]

Another spell for a man to come forth by day against his enemies in the underworld.

I have cut heaven; I have broken through the horizon; I have travelled the earth to his footsteps.

I have taken the great glorified spirits because I am prepared with his millions of words of power.

I eat with his mouth; I chew with my jaw.

I am the god, lord of the netherworld. I have given these things to establish this Ani as Osiris without his rising[?].
