The Egyptian Book of the Dead
The Chapter of building a house on earth.
152.1O rejoice, Seb, N. has been set in motion with his vital power... he has given to men and gods their creative strength.
152.2There is cheering, when it is seen that Seshait has come towards Seb; when Anubis has commanded to N.: build a house on earth, the foundations of which be like On, and the circuit like Cher-ābā; let the god of the sanctuary be in the sanctuary. I also decree that it should contain the sacrificial victim, brought by slaves, and held up by ministrants.
152.3Said by Osiris to the gods in his following: come hastily, and see the house which has been built for the glorified, the well equipt, who cometh every day. Look at him, hold him in awe, and give him praise, which is well pleasing to him.
152.4You see what I have done myself, I the great god who cometh every day. Look ye, Osiris brings me cattle, the south wind brings me grain, the north wind brings me barley as far as the end of the earth.
152.5I have been exalted by the mouth of Osiris, applause surrounds him on his left and on his right.
152.6Look ye, men, gods, and Chus, they applaud him, they applaud him, and I am well pleased.
