Art/Literary - History / Egyptology
Catalan term or phrase: Dt.
I've got an extract of Turin Papyrus XVII on the Ritual of Amenophis to translate, the first line being: "Estàs al cel?", and the line in question which is:

Vens amb la teva satisfacció, estàs poderós en el teu cos *Dt.*

It's apparently not a spiritual being/ritual item, because it is not in italics (cf next line - Pots sortir entre els *Ba* (in italics). Any ideas? So far can't find any Internet clues.

Deu tot poderos


Explanation:
If it turns out not to be Deuteronomy. Good idea there! Then the capital letter might refer to the big man himself. But I am way out in the left field here, a mere catcher in the rye. :-)

Can't find a suitable use of "powerful" in Deuteronomy. It only appears once in the concordance to Deuteronomy and it is about the Lord's powerful arm.
