Deprived of my ancestral glory—I speak of course of the high priesthood—I have now come here,

And so, I have given up the honorable position of high priest that has always been in my family. I have come here,

It is their fault that I no longer hold the glorious position of High Priest, to which I am entitled by birth. And so I have come here,
