1.1 Year 5, fourth month of Shemu, day 16: the day Wenamun, elder of the hall of the temple of Amun, Lord of the Thrones of the Two Lands, departed

1.2 to obtain timber for the great and splendid sacred barque of Amun-Re, King of the Gods, which rests upon

1.3 [the Nile, whose name is] Userhat-Amun. The day I arrived at Tanis, where

1.4 [Smendes] and Tamounis resided, I gave them the decrees of Amun-Re, King of the Gods. They

1.5 had them read aloud before them. They said, “We shall indeed do as Amun-Re, King of the Gods, our

1.6 [lord], has said.” From the fourth month of Shemu onward, I remained in Tanis. Smendes

1.7 and Tamounis sent me out with the ship's captain Mengebet. I sailed down toward

1.8 the great sea of Syria on the first day of the first month of Shemu. I reached Dor, a town of the

1.9 Tjeker. Beder, its prince, sent me 50 loaves, wine in an msḫ jar—

1.10 1 jarful—and 1 leg of beef. Then a man from my ship fled, having stolen gold:

1.11 [one vessel] worth 5 deben; four silver vessels worth 20 deben; and a bag of silver weighing 11 deben.

1.12 [Total stolen:] 5 deben of gold and 31 deben of silver. I rose that morning and went to

1.13 where the prince was. I said to him, “I have been robbed in your harbor. You are the prince of this land, and

1.14 you are its judge. Find my silver! For this silver belongs to Amun-Re,

1.15 King of the Gods, lord of the Two Lands. It belongs to Smendes, to Herihor my lord, and to the other

1.16 great ones of Egypt. It belongs to you, to Weret, to Mekmer, and to Tjekerbaal,

1.17 the prince of Byblos.” He said to me, “Are you trying to seem important? Are you serious? I cannot

1.18 understand these words you have spoken to me. If the thief were from my land, one who had boarded

1.19 your ship and stolen your silver, I would have repaid you from my storehouse until they

1.20 found your thief by name. But the thief who robbed you belongs to you: he belongs to

1.21 your ship. Spend a few days here with me, and I shall look for him.” I spent 9 days moored

1.22 in his harbor. I went to him and said, “See, you have not found my silver! Let me […] with the captains and those who sail the sea.” He said, “Be silent! […] Hear [my words] and do [what] I say to you; do not […] where you shall be. You shall seize their ships and hold them until they go to seek the thief who stole [it] […] harbor. […] Tyre.” I left Tyre at daybreak. […] Tjekerbaal, the prince of Byblos […] their ship. I found 30 deben of silver aboard and seized it. I said […], “Your silver shall remain with me until you find [my silver or the thief who stole] it. You have not stolen it yourselves, but I shall keep it unless […].” They went away. I spent the night […] in a tent on the seashore, in the harbor of Byblos. […] Amun-of-the-Road; I placed his possessions inside it. The prince of Byblos sent word to me: “Get out of my harbor!” I sent word back: “[Where] should I go? […] carry me back to Egypt!” I spent 29 days in his harbor, while day after day he sent word: “Get out of my harbor!” While he was offering to his gods, the god seized one of his ecstatic priests and threw him into a frenzy. The god said to him, “Bring up [the god]! Bring the messenger who carries him! Amun sent him; Amun made him come!” That very night the ecstatic was seized by frenzy. I had found a ship bound for Egypt and loaded everything I owned onto it. I watched for darkness, thinking, “Once it falls, I shall load the god so that no other eye may see him.” But the harbor master came to me and said, “Wait until morning, says the prince!” I said, “Are you not the one who comes to me every day saying, ‘Get out of my harbor’? And tonight you say, ‘Wait,’ to let the ship I found depart, only to come back and say, ‘Go away’?” He went and told the prince. The prince sent word to the ship's captain: “Wait until morning, says the prince!” At morning he sent for me and had me brought up, while the god rested in his tent on the shore of the sea. I found the prince seated in his upper room, his back against a window, while the waves of the great Syrian sea beat behind his head. I said, “May Amun show favor!” He asked me, “How long has it been since you came from the place where Amun is?” I answered, “Exactly 5 months.” He asked, “Are you truthful? Where is Amun's decree that should be in your hand? Where is the high priest of Amun's letter that should be in your hand?” I said, “I gave them to Smendes and Tamounis.” He became exceedingly angry. He said, “Look: neither decree nor letter is in your hand. Where is the ship for the fir wood that Smendes gave you? Where is its Syrian crew? Did he entrust you to this foreign captain so that he might kill you and they might cast you into the sea? From whom would they seek the god then? And from whom would they seek you?” So he spoke to me. I said, “Is a ship sailing under Smendes not an Egyptian ship with an Egyptian crew? He has no Syrian crew!” He said, “Are there not 20 trading ships here in my harbor dealing with Smendes?

2.1 “And as for the other place you mentioned: are there not another 50 ships there trading

2.2 with Werekter, sailing to his house?” At that grave moment I fell silent.

2.3 He spoke again: “What mission brings you here?” I answered, “I have come for the timber

2.4 of the great and splendid sacred barque of Amun-Re, King of the Gods. What your father did

2.5 and your grandfather did, you shall do also,” I told him. He answered, “They indeed did so.

2.6 Give me what is due for the work, and I shall do it. My people carried out this mission only after

2.7 Pharaoh—life, prosperity, and health to him—sent 6 ships loaded with Egypt's products, and they had been unloaded into their

2.8 storehouses. And you—what have you brought me?” He had the records of his forefathers brought in

2.9 and read before me. In his records they found a total of 1,000 deben of silver.

2.10 He said, “If Egypt's ruler were lord of my possessions, so that I were his servant, would he have sent silver and gold with the command,

2.11 ‘Carry out Amun's mission’? It was no mere delivery of gifts that men made to my father.

2.12 But as for me, I tell you, I am not your servant!

2.13 Nor am I a servant of the man who sent you. If I call aloud to Lebanon, the trees will be cast down

2.14 upon the seashore when the sky opens. Give me the sails you brought

2.15 to bear your ships laden with your timber to Egypt.

2.16 Give me the ropes you brought [to bind the firs] I shall cut and supply to you […],

2.17 […] that I shall make for you for the sails of your

2.18 ships. Their upper beams will be heavy and break, and you will die in the heart of the sea.

2.19 Look: Amun thunders in the sky, having placed Seth beside him. Amun established

2.20 all the lands, but he first established Egypt, the land you came from.

2.21 Craftsmanship came forth from there and reached this place where I am. Wisdom came forth

2.22 from there and reached this place where I am. What are these foolish journeys they make you undertake?” I replied,

2.23 “False! These are not foolish journeys! There is not a ship upon the Nile

2.24 that does not belong to Amun. The sea is his, and Lebanon is his—the Lebanon of which you say, ‘It is mine.’ He has made

2.25 the coast ready for Userhat-Amun, mistress of [every] ship. For Amun-Re, King of the Gods, said

2.26 to Herihor my lord that he should send me, and caused me to come bearing this great god. Yet you have kept

2.27 this great god waiting 29 days, moored in your harbor, without learning whether he was here or not—he who was

2.28 here all along! You stand bargaining over Lebanon with Amun, its lord. As for your claim that the

2.29 former kings brought silver and gold: had they possessed life and health, they would not have brought these goods;

2.30 they brought them to your fathers in exchange for life and health. But Amun-Re, King of the Gods, is

2.31 lord of life and health, and lord of your forefathers. They spent their lives offering

2.32 to Amun. You too are Amun's servant. If you say, ‘I shall do it, I shall truly do it for Amun,’ and perform his

2.33 mission, you shall live, prosper, and be healthy, a blessing to all your land and your people. Do not covet

2.34 anything belonging to Amun-Re, King of the Gods: a lion loves what is his. Have your scribe brought to me, and I shall send him

2.35 to Smendes and Tamounis, the pillars Amun has set in the north of his land,

2.36 so that they may bring everything. I shall send him to them with these words: ‘Have it brought until I can go south and

2.37 repay you every expense, without fail.’” So I told him. He placed my letter in his messenger's hand and loaded

2.38 the keel beam, the bowpiece, the sternpiece, and 4 other worked timbers—7 pieces in all—and sent them

2.39 to Egypt. His messenger returned to me in Syria in the first month of Peret. Smendes and Tamounis had sent

2.40 4 ṯbw vessels and 1 kkmn vessel of gold, 5 ṯbw vessels of silver, 10 garments of royal linen, 10 cloths of fine Upper Egyptian linen,

2.41 500 bolts of fine cloth, 500 oxhides, 500 ropes, 20 sacks of lentils, and 30 baskets of fish. She also sent me

2.42 5 garments of fine Upper Egyptian linen, 5 cloths of fine Upper Egyptian linen, 1 sack of lentils, and 5 baskets of fish. The prince rejoiced and ordered

Timber for the Barque of Amun

2.43 300 men and 300 oxen. He placed heralds at their head to have them fell the trees. They felled them, and they lay there through Peret.

2.44 In the third month of Shemu, they hauled them to the seashore. The prince came out, stood beside them, and sent word to me:

2.45 “Come!” As I approached him, the shadow of his lotus fan fell over me. Penamun,

2.46 one of his servants, came up to me and said, “The shadow of Pharaoh—life, prosperity, and health to him—your lord, has fallen over you!” The prince grew angry with him

2.47 and said, “Leave him alone!” I approached, and he said to me, “See, the mission my forefathers performed

2.48 long ago: I shall carry it out, though you have not done for me what your forefathers once did. Look: the remainder

2.49 of your timber has arrived and lies here. Do as I wish: come and load it! Will they not give it to you?

2.50 Do not come to behold the terrors of the sea! If you behold the terrors of the sea, you will behold mine as well.

2.51 I have not done to you what was done to the envoys of Khaemwese, who spent 17 years

2.52 in this land and died here at their posts.” Then he said to his servant, “Take him and show him the tomb where they lie!”

2.53 I said, “Do not make me look at it! The men Khaemwese sent you as envoys were mortal, and he too was mortal.

2.54 But I am not one of his envoys, to whom you might say, ‘Go and see your companions!’ Why not rejoice and have a stela set up

2.55 and inscribe on it: ‘Amun-Re, King of the Gods, sent me Amun-of-the-Road, his divine envoy,

2.56 [life], prosperity, and health to him, with Wenamun his human envoy, to fetch timber for the great and splendid sacred barque of Amun-Re, King of the Gods. I cut

2.57 the timber, loaded it, and furnished my ships and crews for it. I brought [them] to Egypt, [to request]

2.58 50 years of life from Amun beyond the span allotted me.’ Then, if someday an envoy from Egypt who can read comes

2.59 and reads your name upon the stela, you shall receive the waters of the West like the gods who dwell there.”

2.60 He said, “What you have said to me is a great teaching!” I answered, “As for all the things you have said to me: when I reach

2.61 the place where Amun's high priest is, and he sees your work, it is your work that shall bring

2.62 you reward.” I went to the seashore, where the timbers lay, and saw 11 ships

2.63 coming over the sea, ships belonging to the Tjeker, with orders to “Seize him! Let no ship

2.64 carry him to Egypt!” I sat down and wept. The prince's letter-writer came out to me

2.65 and asked, “What troubles you?” I answered, “Do you not see the migrating birds making their flight down to Egypt for the second time?

2.66 See them crossing toward the waters! How long must I remain here? And do you not see the men who have come

2.67 to seize me?” He went and told the prince. The prince began to weep at these words, so full of sorrow.

2.68 He sent his letter-writer out to me with 2 msḫ jars of wine and 1 deer. He also sent for

2.69 Tanutniut, an Egyptian singer in his household, saying, “Sing for him; keep dark thoughts from his heart.” He sent word to me:

2.70 “Eat, drink, keep dark thoughts from your heart. Tomorrow you shall hear all I have to say.” When morning came,

2.71 he called his council together and stood among them. He asked the Tjeker, “What is the purpose of your voyages?”

2.72 They answered, “We have come after the wretched ships you send to Egypt for our opponents.”

2.73 He told them, “I cannot imprison Amun's envoy in my land. Let me send him away; then pursue him

2.74 and capture him.” He loaded me aboard and sent me out to the sea harbor. The wind drove me toward

2.75 the land of Alashiya. Its townspeople came out to kill me. I forced my way through them to Hatiba,

2.76 the princess of the town. I found her as she left one of her houses to enter another, and greeted her.

2.77 I said to the people standing beside her, “Is there no one among you who understands Egyptian?” One of them

2.78 said, “I understand it.” I told him, “Say to my lady that all the way to Thebes, the place where Amun dwells, I heard people say,

2.79 ‘Though injustice is done in every town, justice is done in Alashiya.’ Must injustice be done here every day?” She said to me, “What do you mean by this?”

2.80 I said, “If the sea rages and the wind drives me to the land where you dwell,

2.81 will you allow them to seize me before your eyes and kill me, though I am an envoy of Amun? Look: men will seek me day after day.

2.82 And this crew of the prince of Byblos, whom men are seeking to kill—will their lord not find

2.83 10 of your crews and kill them in return?” Then she had the people sharply rebuked. She said to me, “Lie down!” […]
