Musean translation

Mouseia’s complete machine-assisted Musean translation, made directly from the Egyptian, line for line, covering the whole recto (Cases 1–48, columns 1–17) with its wound cases from the head to the spine, working from the Thesaurus Linguae Aegyptiae transcription (hieroglyphs, transliteration and lemma glosses, with the TLA editors’ German sentence renderings as a comprehension aid; ORAEC release of the TLA corpus, CC BY-SA 4.0).

17.1 “One with a gaping open wound in his armpit, his skin torn away and his sides separated, who suffers

17.2 from mucus at his shoulder blade: an ailment I will treat.” You shall bandage him with fresh meat on the

17.3 first day. If you find that wound opened up and its bandages loosened, you shall gather

17.4 its gaps for him with a pair of linen bands laid over those gaps. Then tend him with ointment,

17.5 honey, and lint each day until he feels well. If you find a wound where his skin is torn away

17.6 and his sides separated on any part of a man's body, examine him according to these instructions. But if

17.7 you find that wound has drawn heat from his skin because of the wound in his armpit,

17.8 while that wound burns and gapes and its bandages loosen, then lay your hand

17.9 upon it. You find heat flowing from the opening of his wound toward your hand, and a quantity of liquid running

17.10 out of it, cool as the juice of a grape. Then you shall say of him: “One with a gaping open wound

17.11 in his armpit that burns, and who grows feverish because of it: an ailment I will contend with.”

17.12 But if you find that man growing feverish while that wound burns, you must not

17.13 bandage him. Lay him on the ground upon his bed until the moment of his pain has passed. But if his fever subsides,

17.14 and heat pours from the opening of his wound to the ground, then tend him with ointment,

17.15 honey, and lint every day until he feels well. Examination of a strain in a vertebra of his spine. If

17.16 you examine a man with a strain in a vertebra of his spine, then say to him: “Stretch out your two legs; bend them.”

17.17 He will stretch them out and bend them at once, because what he does causes pain in the vertebra of his spine

17.18 that troubles him. Then you shall say of him: “One with a strain in a vertebra of his spine: an ailment I will treat.” Then lay

17.19 him flat on his back. Then prepare for him […].

Plain English translation

Mouseia’s complete Plain English edition, made independently and directly from the same Egyptian text, line for line, covering the whole recto (Cases 1–48, columns 1–17) with its wound cases from the head to the spine.

17.1 “He has a gaping open wound in his armpit. His skin tissue has been thrown back and the sides have been cut away. He has

17.2 a buildup of mucus at his shoulder blade. I will treat this condition.” Bandage him with fresh meat on the

17.3 first day. If you find that wound open and its bandages loose, fasten

17.4 its gaping edges for him with a pair of cloth strips placed over those edges. Then treat him with ointment,

17.5 honey and plant fiber every day until he feels better. If you find a wound with the skin tissue thrown back

17.6 and its sides cut away on any part of a man's body, examine him according to these instructions. But if

17.7 you find that his skin tissue has absorbed heat from that wound in his armpit,

17.8 and that wound burns and is open, with its bandages loose, place your hand

17.9 on it. You find heat flowing from the opening of his wound toward your hand. A quantity of fluid flows down

17.10 from it, cold like water from grapes. You should say about him: “He has a gaping open wound

17.11 in his armpit. It burns, and he has a fever because of it. I will contend with this condition.”

17.12 But if you find that man feverish and that wound is burning, do not

17.13 bandage him. Lay him on the ground on his bed until the period of his pain passes. But if his fever breaks

17.14 and heat pours from the opening of his wound onto the ground, then treat him with ointment,

17.15 honey and plant fiber every day until he feels better. Examination of a strain in a vertebra of his spine. If

17.16 you examine a man with a strain in a vertebra of his spine, say to him: “Straighten your two legs. Bend them.”

17.17 He will straighten and bend them at once, because what he does causes pain in the vertebra of his spine

17.18 where he suffers. You should say about him: “He has a strain in a vertebra of his spine. I will treat this condition.” Then lay

17.19 him stretched out on his back. Then prepare for him […].
