Introductory Hymn to Wesir
Worship of Wesir. Wennefer, the Great God who dwells in the Thinite
nome, King of Eternity, Lord of Everlasting, who passes millions
of years In his lifetime first-born son of Nut, begotten of Geb,
Heir, Lord of the Wereret-crown, whose White Crown is tall, Sovereign
of gods and men. He has taken the crook and the flail and the office
of his forefathers. May your heart which is in the desert land be
glad, for your son Heru is firm on your throne, while you have appeared
as Lord of Busiris, as the Ruler who is in Abydos. The Two Lands
flourish in vindication because of you in the presence of the Lord
of All. All the exists is ushered into him in his name of Face
to whom men are ushered; the Two Lands are marshaled for him
a sleader in this his name of Sokar; his might s far-reaching, one
greatly feared in this his name of Wesir; he passes over the length
of eternity in his name of Wennefer.
Hail to you, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Ruler of Rulers, who
took possession of the Two Lands even in the womb of Nut; he rules
on the plains of the Silent Land, even he the golden of body, blue
of head, on whose arms is turquoise. O Pillar of Myriads, broad
of brast, kindly of countenance, who is in the Sacred Land; May
you grant power in the sky, might on earth and vindication in the
realm of the dead, a journeying downstream to Busiris as a living
soul and a journeying upstream to Abydos as a heron; to go in and
out without hindrance at all the gates of the Netherworld. May there
be given to me bread from the House of Cool Water and a table of
offerings from Iunu/Heliopolis, my toes being firm-planted in the
Field of Rushes. May the barley and emmer which are in it belong
to the ka of the Wesir (name).
