See, their words endure in books, Open, read them, copy their knowledge, He who is taught becomes skilled. Don’t be evil, kindness is good, Make your memorial last through love of you. Increase the [people], befriend the town,..

Copy your fathers, your ancestors,See, their words endure in books,Open, read them, copy their knowledge,He who is taught becomes skilled.Don’t be evil, kindness is good..

All forms of evil which people hate have been suppressed.THE FIRST PART OF THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF ANKHTIFI

You should be the model for all men,But your affairs are crooked!The standard for all men cheats the whole land!The vintner of evil waters his plot with crimes,Until his plot sprouts falsehood,His estate flows with crimes!

Life is a passage ; trees fall.Tread on the evil, put down my misery!

The arbitrator is a robber,The remover of need orders its creation.The town is a floodwater,The punisher of evil commits crimes!

There was retribution for what I had done, For it is evil to destroy,Useless to restore what one has damaged, To rebuild what one has demolished.

As for any people who would enter this tomb unclean and do something evil to it, there will be judgment against them by the great god.INSCRIPTION OF HETEP-HER-AKHET
