Kheftiu Asar Butchiu Lyrics - Nile

Kheftin Asar Butbiu 

Enemies of Osiris Who Are To Be Burned 

Let There Be Fetters on Your Arms 

Let There Be Shackles on Your Necks 

Let There Be Chains Upon You 

Ye Shall Be Hacked to Pieces For 

What Ye Have Done To Osiris 

You Have Put His Mysteries Behind Your Backs 

You Hath Dragged the Statue of the God 

From The Secret Place 

You Hath Desecrated The Hidden Things of the 

Great One 

You Are Doomed To Stand And Receive in 

Your Faces 

The Fire Which Serpent Khetti Is About To 

Spit At You

Khetti 

Great Serpent Who Lieth In Undulations 

Before the Damned 

Khetti 

Open Thy Mouth Distend Thy Jaws 

Belch Forth Thy Flames Against My 

Fathers Enemies 

Burn Up Their Bodies 

Consume their Souls 

By the Fire Which Issueth From Thy Mouth 

And By The Flames Which Art In Thy Body 

Photos 

The Fire Which Is in the Serpent Khetti 

Shall Come Forth 

And Blaze Against The Enemies of Osiris 

Whosoever Knoweth How to Use 

These Words of Power 

Against the Serpent Shall Be As One 

Who Doth Not Enter Upon His Fiery Path 

[In the Book of Gates, another text describing the Egyptian underworld, within the Eighth Division of Night is the Gate of Set-Hra. The scenes depicted in this chapter describe some of the tortures which are inflicted upon the original enemies of Osiris. It is impossible for Osiris to slay all of his enemies at once, even though they are in his power. While various batches of them are awaiting their turn at the Block of Slaughter, they are kept tightly fettered and bound. One of the forms of the torture depicted described the "Kheftin Asar Butchiu," i.e., the enemies of Osiris who are to be burned. Their arms are tied behind their backs in positions which cause intense pain, and they are doomed to stand and receive in their faces the fire which the serpent Khetti is about to spit at them, and then be hacked to pieaces and burnt. Horus commands the serpent Khetti, saying "Open thy mouth! Distend thy jaws and belch forth thy flames against my father's enemies! Consume their souls by the fire which issueth from thy mouth and by the flames which art in thy body."]
