1.1 The dispute between Horus and Seth took place. They had hidden forms and were great and powerful princes, the greatest who had ever existed.
1.2 A young god was before the Lord of All, asking for the office of his father Osiris, whose appearances were beautiful, the son of
1.3 Ptah, who lights up the west with his being. Thoth brought the Eye of Horus to the high prince in Heliopolis. Then
1.4 Shu, son of Re, spoke before Atum, the high prince in Heliopolis: “Justice is strong in every case. Do what is right. Say: ‘Give the office to Horus!’”
1.5 Thoth said to the group of gods: “That is right a million times over!” Isis cried out loudly because she was very happy.
1.6 She was very, very happy. She came before the Lord of All and said: “North wind, go west and cheer the heart of Onnophris—may he live, be well, and be healthy!” Then
1.7 Shu, son of Re, said: “Bringing the Eye of Horus is right in the eyes of the group of gods.” The Lord of All said: “Why are you making plans on your own, without me?”
1.8 Then Onuris said: “He has taken Horus's cartouche, and they have put the White Crown on his head.” The Lord of All fell silent for
1.9 a long time, angry with the group of gods. Then Seth, son of Nut, said: “Let Horus go outside
1.10 with me! I'll show you my hand taking his hand before the group of gods, since no one knows another way
1.11 to expose him.” Thoth said to him: “No, we cannot accept this wrong. Should the office of
1.12 Osiris go to Seth when Osiris's son Horus is standing here?” Re-Harakhty became very angry. He wanted the office to go to Seth, the powerful son of Nut.

2.1 He wanted to give the office to Seth, the powerful son of Nut. Onuris cried out loudly before the group of gods,
2.2 saying: “What should we do?” Atum, the high prince in Heliopolis, said: “Send for Ba-neb-Djed, the great living god.
2.3 Let him judge between the two young men!” They brought Ba-neb-Djed, the great god who lives on Sehel Island, and Ptah-Tatenen before Atum.
2.4 Atum said to them: “Judge between the two young men. Stop them from fighting every day.” Ba-neb-Djed, the great living god, answered him:
2.5 “Let's not decide anything when we don't know the facts. Send a letter

2.8 Thoth before the Lord of All: “Please write to Neith, the Great One, mother of the gods, in the name of the Lord of All, the bull in Heliopolis.” Then

2.11 the river rises, Re-Harakhty, writes to Neith, the Great One, mother of the gods, who lit up the first face—may she live, be well, and stay young. The living spirit of
2.12 the Lord of All, the bull in Heliopolis, the good king of Egypt, says this: Your servant is working for Osiris to care for

3.1 we cannot decide between them. Please send us word of what we should do.” Neith, the Great One, mother of the gods,
3.2 sent a letter to the group of gods saying: “Give the office of Osiris to his son Horus. Don't commit these serious
3.3 wrongs that have no place here, or I will get angry and the sky will touch the earth. Tell the Lord of All,
3.4 the bull in Heliopolis: ‘Give Seth more property. Give him Anat and Astarte, your two daughters, and
3.5 put Horus in the place of his father Osiris!’” Neith's letter reached the group of gods while they sat
3.6 in the hall called “Horus Before the Horns.” They put the letter in Thoth's hand, and Thoth read it aloud before the Lord of All
3.7 and the entire group of gods. They said together: “This goddess is right.” The Lord of All grew angry with Horus and said to him: “You
3.8 are weak in body. This office is too big for you, boy with bad breath!” Onuris became angry
3.9 a million times over, as did the whole group of gods, the Court of Thirty. The god Baba stood up and
3.10 said to Re-Harakhty: “Your shrine is empty.” Re-Harakhty was hurt by what Baba said to him.
3.11 He lay on his back, deeply upset. The group of gods went outside and
3.12 shouted loudly at the god Baba. They said to him: “Get out! The wrong
3.13 you have done is very serious.” They went to their lodgings. The great god spent a whole day

4.1 lying on his back in his pavilion. He was deeply upset and alone. After a long time,
4.2 Hathor, lady of the southern sycamore, came. She stood before her father, the Lord of All, and exposed her vulva in front of him. The great god
4.3 laughed at her. He got up and sat with the great group of gods. He said to Horus and Seth: “Both of you, speak!” Then
4.4 Seth, the powerful son of Nut, said: “As for me, I am Seth, strong among the group of gods. Every day I kill the
4.5 enemy of Re while I stand at the front of the Boat of Millions. No other god can do that. I will take over the office of Osiris.”
4.6 The group of gods said: “Seth, son of Nut, is right.” Onuris and Thoth cried out loudly: “Will you give the
4.7 office to Osiris's brother from the same mother when his own son is standing here?” Ba-neb-Djed, the great living god, said: “Will you give the office to
4.8 this boy when Seth, Osiris's older brother, is standing here?” The group of gods cried out loudly before the Lord of All and said to him: “What
4.9 are these things you're saying? They aren't worth listening to!” Horus, son of Isis, said: “It isn't right to treat me this way in front of
4.10 the group of gods and take my father Osiris's office away from me.” Isis became angry with the group of gods. She swore an oath by a god
4.11 before them: “As my mother Neith the goddess lives, and as Ptah-Tatenen lives, with his two tall feathers, who bends the two horns
4.12 of the gods, these words will be placed before Atum, the high prince in Heliopolis, and Khepri, who is in his boat!” The group of gods said to her:
4.13 “Don't be angry. Right decisions will be made for the one who is right. We will do everything you said.” Then Seth,

5.1 son of Nut, grew angry with the group of gods when they said this to Isis, the Great One, mother of the gods. Seth told them: “I will
5.2 take my djam-scepter, which weighs 4500 nemset units, and kill one of you every day.” Then Seth swore
5.3 by the Lord of All: “I won't argue my case in court while Isis is there.” Re-Harakhty said to them:
5.4 “Cross over to the island in the middle and judge between the two of them there. Tell Nemty, the ferryman: ‘Don't
5.5 ferry across any woman who looks like Isis!’” The group of gods crossed to the island in the middle and sat down to
5.6 eat their food. Then Isis came to Nemty, the ferryman, as he was about to approach his
5.7 boat. She had changed herself into an old woman. She walked bent over,
5.8 with a small gold seal ring on her hand. She said to him: “I've come to you so you'll take me to
5.9 the island in the middle. I'm carrying a jar of flour for the little boy.
5.10 He has been looking after the herds on the island in the middle for 5 days now, and he's hungry.” Nemty said to her:
5.11 “I've been told: ‘Don't ferry any woman across!’” She told him: “They only told you that because of Isis.”
5.12 He said to her: “What will you give me to take you to the island in the middle?” Isis said to him:
5.13 “I'll give you this cake.” He said to her: “What use is your cake to me? Would I
5.14 ferry you to the island in the middle, after they told me, ‘Don't ferry any woman across,’ just in exchange for your cake?”

6.1 Then she said to him, “I'll give you the gold seal ring on my hand.” He said to her, “Give me the gold seal ring.” And she gave it to him.
6.2 Then he ferried her to the island in the middle. As she walked among the trees, she looked around. She saw
6.3 the council of nine gods sitting and eating in the presence of the Lord of All, in his pavilion. Then Seth looked up.
6.4 He saw her coming from far away. She used her magic and changed her appearance
6.5 into that of a girl with a beautiful body. There was no one like her in the whole land. Seth wanted her very badly.
6.6 Seth got up from where he was sitting and eating with the great council of nine gods. He went to intercept her,
6.7 though no one else had seen her. He stood behind a sycamore tree, called to her, and said, “I'm here with you,
6.8 beautiful girl.” She said to him, “Think about this, my great lord. I was married to a cattle herder, and
6.9 I gave birth to his son. My husband died, and the boy began to look after his father's herds.
6.10 Then a stranger came and sat down in my cattle pen. He said this to my son:
6.11 ‘I will beat you, take away your father's herds, and throw you out.’ That's what he said to him. So I want you to
6.12 stand up for my son.” Seth said to her, “Should the herds be given to the stranger while the man's son
6.13 is standing right there?” Then Isis changed into a kite. She flew up and landed on
6.14 the top of an acacia tree. She called to Seth and said, “You should be ashamed! Your own mouth said it. Your own good judgment

7.1 has judged you. What more do you want?” Seth began to feel ashamed. He went to Re-Harakhty, still ashamed.
7.2 Re-Harakhty said to him, “What do you want now?” Seth replied, “That wicked woman came to me again.
7.3 She made a racket there again after changing into a beautiful girl right in front of me. She said to me,

7.9 “I said to her, ‘Should the cattle be given to that stranger when the man's son is standing right there?’

7.12 What more do you want?” Seth said, “Have Nemty the ferryman brought here and punished severely. Ask him,
7.13 ‘Why did you let her cross?’” They brought Nemty the ferryman before the council of nine gods. Then they cut off the tips of his feet. And

8.3 Atum, lord of the Two Lands and Heliopolis, sent a message to the council: “Why are you still sitting here doing nothing? Are you going to make the two young men
8.4 spend their whole lives in court? When my letter reaches you, put the White Crown on the head of Horus, son of Isis, and appoint him to the position of his father,
8.5 Osiris.” Seth became extremely angry. The council of nine gods asked him, “Why are you angry? Shouldn't we do what Atum,
8.6 lord of the Two Lands and Heliopolis, and Re-Harakhty have said?” Then they placed the White Crown on Horus's head. Seth shouted loudly in front of the council,
8.7 because he was angry. He said, “Should my young nephew get the office when I, his grown uncle, am standing right here?” Then he swore an oath:
8.8 “Take the White Crown off the head of Horus, son of Isis, and throw him into the water. I will compete with him in court for the office of ruler, life, health, and prosperity.”
8.9 Re-Harakhty did as he asked. Seth said to Horus, “Come, let's both turn into hippos and sink into
8.10 the floodwater in the middle of the great green sea. Whoever comes up within exactly three months must not
8.11 be given the office.” They both sank under the water. Isis began to cry: “Seth will kill my son Horus!”
8.12 She got a length of rope measuring one hapat, made a loop, and got one deben of copper. She melted the copper down to make a weapon for
8.13 the water. She attached the loop to it and threw it into the water where Horus and Seth had dived.

9.1 The copper weapon struck her son Horus. Horus shouted loudly, “Come to me, my mother Isis, my mother!
9.2 Call out to your copper weapon and tell it to let go of me! I am Horus, son of Isis!” Isis shouted loudly and said to her weapon, “Let go of him!
9.3 That is my son Horus, my boy!” Her weapon released him. Then she threw it into the water again.
9.4 It struck Seth. Seth shouted loudly, “What have I done to you, my sister Isis?
9.5 Call out to your copper weapon and tell it to let go of me! I am your brother by the same mother, Isis!” She felt very sorry for him. Seth called to her,
9.6 “Do you really want to act against Seth, your brother by the same mother?” Then Isis called to her weapon:
9.7 “Let go of him! You have struck Isis's brother by the same mother!” The weapon released him. Then Horus, son of Isis, grew angry with his mother Isis.
9.8 He came out of the water with a face as fierce as a leopard's. He held his knife,
9.9 weighing 16 deben, in his hand. He cut off his mother Isis's head, held it in his arms, and climbed the hill. Then Isis
9.10 changed into a headless figure of a woman made of flint. Re-Harakhty
9.11 said to Thoth, “What is that coming toward us without a head?” Thoth said to Re-Harakhty,
9.12 “My good lord, it is Isis the Great, the Mother of the God. Her son Horus cut off her head.” Then

10.1 Re-Harakhty cried out loudly and said to the council of gods, “Let's hurry and give him a severe punishment!” Then the council of gods climbed these mountains to look for Horus, son of Isis.
10.2 But Horus was lying under a sycamore in the oasis land.
10.3 Seth found him, grabbed him, and struck him on the back on the mountain. Then Seth removed Horus's two sound eyes from their places.
10.4 He buried them on the mountain to light up the earth. The two eyeballs became two buds
10.5 that grew into lotus flowers. Then Seth went away. He lied to Re-Harakhty, saying, “I haven't found Horus,” though he had found him.
10.6 Hathor, lady of the southern sycamore, went out. She found Horus lying on the mountainside, crying.
10.7 She caught a gazelle and milked it. Then she said to Horus,
10.8 “Open your eyes. I'll put this milk in them.” He opened his eyes, and she put the milk in. She put some on the right eye and
10.9 some on the left eye. Then she said to him, “Open your eyes.” He opened them. She looked at him and found that he was healed. Then she
10.10 went to tell Re-Harakhty, “Horus has been found. Seth had injured his eyes, but I've got him back on his feet.
10.11 Look, here he is!” The council of gods said, “Call Horus and Seth so they can be judged.” They were brought before
10.12 the council of gods. The Lord of All said to Horus and Seth before the great council of gods, “Go, but listen first to what I say to you: you must eat

11.3 They lay down together. In the night Seth made his penis stiff and put it between Horus's thighs.
11.4 Horus put his two hands between his thighs and caught Seth's semen. Then Horus went
11.5 to tell his mother Isis, “Come to me, Isis, my mother! Come and see what Seth has done to me!” He opened his hands
11.6 and showed her Seth's semen. She cried out loudly, took her spear, cut off Horus's hands, and
11.7 threw them into the water. She provided him with replacement hands. Then she fetched some sweet-smelling ointment and put it on Horus's penis.
11.8 She made it stiff and held it over a cup. Horus let his semen fall into the cup. In the morning Isis took Horus's semen

12.1 Horus, “Come, let's hurry! I'll go to court with you.” Horus told him, “I'll do it. Yes, I'll do it, I really will.” They went to court together.
12.2 They stood before the great council of gods. Someone said to them, “Speak now!” Seth said, “Give me
12.3 the office of ruler, may he live, prosper, and be healthy. As for Horus standing here, I have done a man's act to him!” The council of gods cried out
12.4 loudly and spat in Horus's face. Horus laughed at them and swore an oath by the god, saying,
12.5 “Everything Seth has said is false. Call Seth's semen so we can see where it answers from,
12.6 and call mine so we can see where it answers from.” Thoth, lord of the gods' words
12.7 and scribe of the council of gods' truth, put his hand on Horus's shoulder. He said, “Come out, semen of Seth!” It answered
12.8 him from the water in the area of the cucumber patch. Thoth put his hand on Seth's shoulder and said, “Come
12.9 out, semen of Horus!” It asked him, “Where should I come out?” Thoth told it, “Come
12.10 out of his ear!” It said to him, “Should I come out of his ear when I am divine water?”
12.11 Thoth told it, “Come out of the top of his head!” It came out as a golden disk on the head of
12.12 Seth. Seth grew extremely angry. He reached out to grab the golden disk, but Thoth took it away

13.1 from him and put it on his own head as a crown. The council of gods said, “Horus is right. Seth is wrong.” Seth became extremely angry.
13.2 He cried out loudly when they said, “Horus is right. Seth is wrong.” Then Seth swore a solemn oath by the god, saying,
13.3 “He will not be given the office until he has been sent out with me, we have made ourselves some
13.4 stone boats, and we have raced each other, the two of us. Whoever beats his opponent will
13.5 be given the office of ruler, may he live, prosper, and be healthy.” Horus made himself a boat of fir wood and coated it with plaster.
13.6 In the evening he put it in the water, without anyone in the whole country seeing it. Then
13.7 Seth saw Horus's boat. He said, “It's stone.” He went to the mountain and cut off a
13.8 rocky projection. He shaped it into a stone boat 138 cubits long. They went down to their boats
13.9 in front of the council of gods. Seth's boat sank in the water. Seth changed himself into a hippopotamus
13.10 and caused Horus's boat to sink. Horus took his spear and threw it toward Seth himself. Then
13.11 the council of gods told him, “Don't throw it at him!” Horus fetched equipment for the water and put it in his boat. Then he sailed downstream
13.12 to Sais to tell Neith the Great, mother of the god, “Have the dispute between Seth and me judged. We have been in court for 80 years now.”

14.1 “We cannot be separated. Yet no one has ever ruled in his favor against me. They have ruled in my favor against him a thousand times by now, day after day, but he pays no attention to anything
14.2 the council of gods says. I argued my case with him in the hall called the Path of Truth. They ruled in my favor against him. I argued my case with him in the hall called
14.3 Horus Before the Horns. They ruled in my favor against him. I argued my case with him in the hall called the Field of Reeds. They ruled in my favor against him. I argued my case
14.4 with him in the hall called the Pool of the Field. They ruled in my favor against him.” Then the council of gods said to Shu, the son of Re, “Horus, son of Isis, is right in everything he has said.”
14.5 Then Thoth said to the Lord of All, “Have a letter sent to Osiris so he can judge the two young men.” Shu, the son of Re, said, “Right a million times over is
14.6 what Thoth told the council of gods.” Then the Lord of All said to Thoth, “Sit down and write a letter to Osiris. Let's hear what he has to say.” So Thoth sat down
14.7 to write the letter to Osiris. It said: “Bull, Lion Who Hunts for Himself; He of the Two Ladies, Protector of the Gods, He Who Subdues the Two Lands; Golden Horus, He Who Created People in the Beginning;
14.8 King of Upper and Lower Egypt, Bull Who Is in Heliopolis, may you live, prosper, and be healthy; Son of Ptah, He Who Makes the Two Banks Fertile, Who Appears as Father of His Council of Gods, Who Feeds on Gold and All Kinds of Fine Faience,
14.9 may you live, prosper, and be healthy: Please send us word of what we should do with Horus and Seth so we do not make plans without knowing what we are doing.” Many days after this,
14.10 the letter reached the king, the son of Re, Great in Abundance, Lord of Food. He gave a loud shout when the letter was read aloud to him. Then he
14.11 sent an answer very quickly to where the Lord of All was with the council of gods. It said: “Why are you harming my son Horus, when I am the one who made you powerful?
14.12 I am also the one who made barley and emmer to feed the gods, and likewise the small livestock after the gods, when no other god or goddess was able to do it.” Then the

15.1 letter of Osiris reached Re-Harakhty, who was sitting with the council of gods in the White Field at Xois. Then it was read aloud in his presence
15.2 and in the presence of the council of gods. Re-Harakhty said, “Quickly send Osiris a reply to the letter for me. Tell him in reply, ‘Even if you had never come into being, even if you had never been born,
15.3 barley and emmer would still have come into being.’” Then the Lord of All's letter reached Osiris. It was read aloud to him, and he sent another message to Re-Harakhty: “It is very good indeed—
15.4 all that you have done and all that the council of gods found already made, even though justice was allowed to sink into the underworld. Now look at your own situation! As for
15.5 the land where I am, it is full of messengers with fierce faces. They fear no god or goddess. I will let them come out and take the heart of anyone who does evil deeds,
15.6 and they will be here with me. What good is my being here, resting in the west, while absolutely all of you are outside? Which one of them is stronger than I am? Look,
15.7 they have made up a lie! When Ptah the Great, Who Is South of His Wall, Lord of Ankh-Tawy, made the sky, did he not say to the stars in it, ‘You shall rest in the west
15.8 every night where King Osiris is’? He also told me, ‘After the gods, the nobles and the common people will rest where you are.’” Many days
15.9 after this, Osiris's letter reached the Lord of All and the council of gods. Thoth received the letter and read it aloud before Re-Harakhty
15.10 and the council of gods. They said, “Great in Abundance, Lord of Food, may he live, prosper, and be healthy, is completely right in everything he said.” Then Seth said, “Take us to the island in the middle
15.11 so I can argue my case with him.” He went to the island in the middle, and Horus was declared right against him. Then Atum, Lord of the Two Lands and Heliopolis, sent for Isis and said, “Bring Seth, with
15.12 a wooden collar around his neck.” Isis brought Seth wearing a wooden collar, under guard as a prisoner. Atum said to him, “Why are you preventing us from deciding between you
15.13 by taking Horus's position for yourself?” Seth answered, “No, my good lord! Have Horus, son of Isis, summoned and give him the position of

16.1 his father Osiris.” Then they brought Horus, son of Isis, put the White Crown on his head, and placed him in the position of his father Osiris. They said to him, “You are the good king of Egypt. You are
16.2 the lord of life, prosperity, and health, the finest in every land forever and ever.” Then Isis gave a loud shout to her son Horus: “You are the good king! My heart is full of joy! You light up the land
16.3 with your being!” Then Ptah the Great, Who Is South of His Wall, Lord of Ankh-Tawy, said, “What shall we do with Seth? Look, Horus has been put in the position of his father Osiris.” Then
16.4 Re-Harakhty said, “Give Seth, the son of Nut, to me. Let him live with me as my son. Let him raise his voice in the sky and let people fear him.” Then they
16.5 went to tell Re-Harakhty, “Horus, son of Isis, has risen as ruler; may he live, prosper, and be healthy.” Re was very happy. He said to the council of gods,
16.6 “Cheer for Horus, son of Isis, and bow down to the ground!” Then Isis said, “Horus has risen as ruler; may he live, prosper, and be healthy. The council of gods is celebrating. The sky is full of joy. They took
16.7 garlands when they saw Horus, son of Isis, risen as the great ruler of Egypt; may he live, prosper, and be healthy. The hearts of the council of gods were glad. The whole land was celebrating
16.8 when they saw Horus, son of Isis, after the position of his father Osiris, Lord of Busiris, had been given to him.” It has come to a good end in the Place of Truth at Thebes.
