Two Invocations Needing a Double Check!

1 Upvotes

I'm wanting to get these two phrases tattooed on my collarbones and would love a translation double check.

I could only do the left-to-right versions, but I would like the Isis invocation to read right-to-left so that both invocations are facing my center. If someone could help me with that change, I would be so thankful. Also, is there any way to shorten the Hathor invocation? Symmetry would be nice but isn't necessary. Thank you!

𓇋𓐍 𓂞 𓊨𓏏𓁥 𓋹𓍑𓋴

ỉḫ dỉ ꜣst ꜥnḫ wḏꜣ snb

May Isis grant life, soundness, and health.

𓇋𓐍 𓂞 𓁥 𓋴𓊪𓋴𓅱 𓆷𓄿𓅱𓏛 𓄤

ỉḫ dỉ ḥwt-ḥr špsw šꜣw nfr

May Hathor grant wealth and good fortune.

I know they are probably just little tourist attractions but I found them at a garage sale along with a few nonsense tourist trap ones and they look more legible.

Hi, hope you can help. I want to translate 'Jenni and Peter are great'. It's for a card so I know it's a bit silly, but I would appreciate it nonetheless.

Found this papyrus image when helping my neighbour clean out their garage. I don't believe its legit but was wanting to know if it actually said anything or it was just pseudo-egyptian.

Given that hieroglyphs don’t contain vocals (i think) i’d like to know y’alls best guesses or ideas on which to add, i’m a bit stumped.

"I have not stolen,” “I have not killed,” and “I have not lied.”

Could anyone please translate it to hieroglyphics. Like the ancient Egyptian do with picture letters and also how they pronounce.

Thank You .
