Set's Threat to Apophis

Set: "Back, Fiend, from the onslaught of His light! If you speak, your face will be overturned by the gods. Your heart will be seized by the caracal (Mafdet), your reins will be bound by the scorpion (Selket), you will be punished by Ma’at, she will bring you to grief."

Apophis: "I will perform your will, O Ra, I will act properly, I will act peacefully, O Ra!"

Set: "Bring your ropes, O Ra, that Apophis may fall to Your snaring or be trapped by the gods of North, South, East and West in their traps . . . All is now well, O Ra! Proceed in peace! And you, Apophis, down! Away, Apophis, O Enemy of Ra!"
