That man, whether king, governor, or governor, or governor, or who among the people a name is called, may Anu, king of the great gods, bind me, and his kingship may he remove, and his kingship may he restore. In a wrath may he curse him, Annunitum, the beloved of my lord, may he curse him, and a great curse may he establish. In his midst, a fate which cannot exist, among the people, wherever the god Ulmashitu, the creator of my name,
May the one who has no children speak forever of him. May Ninshubur, the vizier of Anu, his ally, be enraged and his report be heard. May Dan-Ea and Rashub-Ea with Annunitum and Ulmashitum be praised. Their cultic rites forever.

Sîn-iddinam, the mighty man, provider of Ur, king of Larsa, king of Sumer and Akkad, king of the Ebabbar, the temple of Utu, he built, and the plans of the temples of the gods he restored to their places. When An, Enlil, Nanna and Utu a good reign of justice, a long life, he presented to them. My extensive wisdom, which I had established, I had brought forth from the mountains. To my city and my land I had water poured out. For my heroic deeds, for the distant future, I made great, and by the command of An and Enlil,
I have made it a regular thing. The Tigris, which had been abandoned, I have restored to its place. For a long time I have dedicated my name. By no means shall I change its word. At that time, by the command of An and Inanna, by the command of Enlil and Ninlil, by Ishkur, my god, by my heroism, by the great strength of Nanna and Utu, by the Tigris, the canal of abundance, by Utu, by my yoke, I have made it wide. By the boundary territory of the boundary territory I have made it wide. By the yoke of the land I have made it wide. By the flood of abundance, I have made it wide. By the flood of Larsa, my land,
When the Tigris, the great canal, was dug, one man labored, 1 gur of barley per gur, 2 sila3 of bread, 4 sila3 of beer, and 2 shekels of oil per day, and he was able to do it, and he did not have one man labor, nor one man labor, nor one with a wage, he did not have any. By the strength of my land, I completed its work. By the word of the great gods, the Tigris, the broad canal, I restored. For a long time, I established my name.
I, Sin-iddinam, the mighty man, provider of Ur, king of Larsa, king of Sumer and Akkad, the king who the Ebabbar, the temple of Utu, did build, and who the divine plans of the temples of the gods did restore, when An, Enlil, Nanna and Utu a favorable reign of justice whose days have been prolonged did present to me, by means of my broad wisdom greatly established and pre-eminent, for my cities and land to produce good water as well as the course and praise of my heroism today and afterwards to make highly resplendent, to An and Enlil I made pleasing words, and they to my righteous prayers
having been agreeable, for the digging of the Tigris, and its restoring, also through long days of life to establish my name, with their unalterable words they issued orders to me. At that time, by the commands of An and Inanna with the agreement of Enlil and Ninlil, and of Ishkur my personal god my helper, and by the exalted power of Nanna and Utu, the Tigris, Utu's river of abundance, by means of my triumph I dug there in a grand fashion. Up to the border territory, my chosen boundary mound, I brought its beginning, and into a marsh I directed it in a great fashion. Thus a constant water supply, a ceaseless abundance, to my city Larsa of the nation I established.
When the Tigris, the great river, I dug, the wages for one man were 1 kor barley each, 2 sila bread each, 4 sila beer each and 2 shekels oil each, in one day thusly they received it. Either a man less wages, or a man more wages I did not let him take. Through the strength of the land I completed that work. By means of the commands and divine decisions of the great gods the Tigris, the wide river, I returned to its former place, and so for all future time I have indeed made my name stand forth.

For Nanna, the great lord, when heaven and silver are in balance, the princely crown is raised, the true god, may it be at night! Month "Gazelle," the year in which the sanctuaries are established, the righteous decision made in the Ekur, the beloved son of Ninlil, Ashimbabbar, the one who listens to prayers, his master, Kudur-mabuk, father of the Amorite land, son of Simti-shilhak, the man who the szugar of the Ebabbar returned, and Utu his master returned to his hand. The scattered people, whose necks are smashed, whose troops are smashed, whose mouths are uttered in his land,
The evil head was smashed with a tibir axe, and the ... of his land was seized by the enemy. The princely residence, the pure residence of Utu, the supreme judge of heaven and earth, in Larsa, a thing that is pleasing to him, he sat down. Kudur-mabuk, the humble shepherd, in the shrine Ebabbar, I sat in prayer. When An, Enlil, Enki and Ninmah, with a scepter, the true scepter, the one who sat in prayer, may he be sated with a reign of eternal me, whose divine powers cannot change, he gave to me, by the great command of Nanna and Utu, as a gift,
... ... before ... holy star ... ... ... throne ... ... ... ... ... its throne ... ... a reddish gold statue ... the work ... The statue of Nanna, its sculpted features, perfected ...
for my good omens, daily not to be interrupted, ... ... stand there. For my statue of my shudea, a new shu'ila, a new azu, a razu-demon, a sabla-demon, a foundation of a throne, you shall be the one who makes the calf of heaven, in its entirety, stand there. For the oxen of heaven, its limbs, you shall be the one who makes the divine powers of the zaza, and its large horns, from the gishgannum tree, a lion, a lion, a snare, and silver, a life of my life and the life of Warad-Sîn, my son, my name, ... forever, son .
The king of Larsa dedicated it this vessel. At that time, after that, the man who the throne with an evil weapon shall replace, my weapon shall remove, my house shall enter, my ... shall remove, my throne shall return, the ... shall return, the ... to the kinag of the Abzu shrine shall return, the day that the ... of the throne he fashioned, to Nanna his master shall speak. Abangi, the weapon that he had destroyed, the god of the land and the king shall return,
He erases his inscribed name, he writes his name, and he returns it to its place. A foreigner will be killed.
For Nanna the great lord, light that fills holy heaven, who holds high the head with the princely crown, steadfast god who mixes day and night, who verifies the months, who makes whole the years, who within the Ekur humbly receives trustworthy divine decisions at the place of the father who begot him, the beloved son of Ninlil, for Ashimbabbar, who listens to prayers and supplications, his master, Kudur-mabuk, father of the Amorite land, son of Simti-shilhak a man who a favor to the Ebabbar repaid and for Utu his master decorated it, who the scattered people brought together, and their disorganized forces straightened out, who made his land altogether harmonious,
who the heads of its enemies did slap, the snare of his land by whom all those who were enemies were smashed, who, in the princely residence, made youthful Utu, the exalted judge of heaven and earth, in Larsa, whither came regular offerings, did make to dwell in physical comfort. I, Kudur-mabuk, the humble shepherd, who for the Ebabbar shrine serves standing in prayer, when An and Enlil, and Enki and Ninmah, a trusty scepter suited for leading the people, and a reign of lasting divine power whose power is unalterable, at the exalted commands of Nanna and Utu because of my justness, they did give to me, because of this, as I made beautiful words,
... ... ... before ... holy stars ... brilliance ... the throne ... ... within ... ... ... that throne ... which was plated with red gold, my lifetime .. worked ... a statue of Nanna whose features were finely made ... ... ... greatly ...
who for my? producing of propitious oracular utterances are present daily ..., I made stand at its edges. Towards my praying statue new shu'illa petitions as well as prayers they extended for me, and at the base of the throne I set them securely. For a Calf of Heaven, in thoroughly skillfully made, I sought out its ... divine attributes. Four breed bulls I secured there. Its large seat? with kishkanum wood, the crosspieces being lions felling kids, were plated with refined silver. For my life and the life of Warad-Sin my son, the young man, offspring ..., with a lasting name, son of ..., provider of Ur, who reveres the Ebabbar,
king of Larsa, I dedicated it to him. If today or afterwards a person an order of wickedness who against this throne shall issue, who shall efface my creation or have it brought it into a storehouse, or the well-ordered ... having effaced for that throne shall remove that from it, the first fruit offerings of ... to the libation place of the abzu, which emerged at the same time as the day of its birth. When the ... stones into that throne I had worked, for Nanna, his master, which until now were inlaid?, after he had secured? it, through a wicked act by him he removes them from it, and to a different god by a king who is his peer as a gift it he shall give them,
or its inscription he shall erase and his own name he shall write on it, or because of this curse he incites another person to it,

When An and Enlil, the eternal princes, the fathers of the gods, decreed the fates, Nanna, the true son, the beloved of the Ekur, at that time, in his joyful radiance, he sat before him, he sat before him, he sat before him, he sat down, he sat down, he sat down, he sat down, he sat down, he sat down, he sat down, he sat down, he sat down in heaven and earth, he sat down in the Anuna gods, he sat in Ur, the kisurra of the gods, he imposed a favorable reign, he sat on its throne, he sat on its throne, he sat on its right side, he sat on its right side.
They have sworn by the pure words, which cannot be changed, to be faithful. At that time, Ashimbabbar, the great decision maker, son of Ninlil, from the presence of An and Enlil, raised his head high, and he has risen up to the top of his head, and the land has sworn by his words faithfully. He has sworn by the people of the world, and he has sworn by his city Ur, the mother who is the shining one of the mountains, who looks with pleasure upon his head, he has sworn by his great name. He has sworn by the mountains and seas, to eat abundance, to wage war and battle in the land.
As if it were a shepherd, he swore it. Like a shepherd, he swore it. His land was sworn by the hand. He made its heart resound with water. He made its days long. He made pure words. For this, Warad-Sîn, your great wisdom, I am a true person, I am a pure person, I am a shepherd of my land. I gave my shepherdship to you. He gave me a scepter, he made a joyful reign, he made a joyful reign. He made his people dwell in his words. He rebuilt Etemenniguru, he returned the foundations of the shrine Ebabbar.
The cities of the gods of the lands are built, their ruins are piled up, their ruin mounds are piled up, their ruins are piled up, their ruin mounds are brought back to their places. Nanna, lord of the divine powers of heaven and earth, who makes my fate perfect, my command is repaid. My adgi'a-priests are brought back to their places. My adgi'a-priests are not repaid. For my kingship I shall be entrusted to the people, I shall be a great kingship for ever, I shall extend the boundaries of Ur, I shall widen its boundaries, I shall make the extra-curricular offerings of my days be repaid,
He prayed to Ubiltar, and after him he had sat down, he sat down. Nanna my master, he made him dwell, for my life and the life of Kudur-mabuk, my father, the city of the land of life, the place of abundance, the residence of the cult centers of the gods, he decreed its fate. He made it greater than before, the head of heaven, the shoulders of the sea, the arms of the hand, the work of the enunciation. His broad horizon covered the land, the work of his good heart, the black-headed people, and the life of the cult centers, he established there.
its bricks he made complete, its great wall he completed, its retaining wall he made complete. Like a beautiful mountain range, he made it a pure place. His cultic rites he made complete. Like a great name he made its head high. He made the cultic rites of the land great. He made its foundations of kingship firm. He made its gates high. He made its foundations strong. He made its brickwork strong. He made its brickwork strong. He made its brickwork thick, he made its reeds thick. He made its cultic rites thick. When the wall of Ur he built, he made it a wage of one man 3 ban3 barley per day.
When the day has arrived, I shall make it pass by. In my land I shall make the bright head of my happiness last long. I shall complete its work. With broad wisdom, I shall make it reach the great heavens. I shall make the foundation of my holy name firm for the wall. Nanna, my master, may I rejoice over it. May Nanna, my master, rejoice over me. May a happy day, a reign of abundance, a reign of abundance, a scepter of good life, and the good fortune of kingship, may he present to me. My shepherdship in Nippur, Ur, and Larsa
In the future may a prince beloved of Nanna and Ningal decree for him a fate of abundance.
When An and Enlil the eternal princes, the fathers of the gods, they who decide the fates, to Nanna, the good son, the beloved of the Ekur - who daily, in humility, while prostrating himself standing before them, heeds what they say and bows to their commands - they spoke to him happily. The counsel of heaven and earth, the good advice and divine decisions of the Anunna gods, they placed in his hands. In his city Ur, the demarcated territory of the gods, to exercise a good reign for the future, to raise high its daises, and all the assembly of living beings to make bear tribute and set it down at his feet and his hands,
their holy word, which cannot be altered, they firmly spoke. At that time, Ashimbabbar, wise as to decisions, the son of Ninlil, who before An and Enlil in beauty had come forth head held high, who soothes the land with his word, who has faithfully manifested it to the Black Headed People, and has shown compassion to its numerous people, in his city Ur, the weak? mother of the land, with his shining brow and happy heart he? looked at her?, and having raised his head he made it acquire an exalted name. Letting it have the use of the abundance of the sea and mountains and as well making it rush into war and battle in the nation,
he gave it as a gift. To provide refuge for the living, to return what was their land to their control, to establish water therein, and so to prolong their lives by their word they brought him to do this. For this, Warad-Sîn, me, the wise one possessing intelligence, who loves what is right, me who was colored? in sacred fashion from the very womb of my mother, he Nanna placed me in the position of shepherd in his land. For my rectitude he gave me the scepter, bestowed upon me a happy reign, and made his numerous people dwell under my command. To renovate the Etemenniguru temple, to thicken the base? of the shrine Ebabbar,
to rebuild the cities of the gods of the land, to ... their fallen ... to raise high the old divine plans, to restore their forgotten lustration rites, Nanna, the lord who perfects the divine attributes of heaen and earth, because of my reverence he ordered me to do this. My counsel for that? is a superior thing, my skillful care is a thing that cannot be disrupted. About lettiing my people know the ways of my kingship about making my greatness and majesty exist forever, about widening Ur, expanding its platform, and greater than previously enlarging its grounds,
after I had inquired about these things, I trod after him and humbly I addressed pleas to him. Nanna, my master, was agreeable to me. For my life and the life of Kudur-mabuk, the father who begot me - the city, the mountain of life and place of abundance, the residence and assembly place of the gods, whose destiny they the gods having decided, whose name is surpassing, with top reaching the heavens, whose arms seek with the hands the put inquiries, whose wide shadow covers foreign land as well as the nation, from whose good base the Black Headed People he has multiplied, those who betake their lives there - the building of its wall he placed in my hands. In the middle of that, five months had not elapsed
when I had baked its bricks. I finished that great wall and raised up its parapets. Like a verdant mountain range I made it grow on a pure place. Its height I made surpassing and set free its awesome radiance. Commensurate with its name and greatness I raised up its top. As a marvel of the nation I made it grandly resplendent. In its foundations, for the foundation documents of my kingship I sought out the place. I raised the top of its main gate. I strengthened its demarcating levee, circled it with bricks, and dug its moat. I heaped up its ... When the wall of Ur I built, the wages for one man were: 3 ban barley,
in one day a man received thus. From the midst of my land I removed cause for complaint. With my shining brow and happy heart I finished this work quickly and joyfully. With my wide intelligence and wisdom I did the work in grand fashion. That wall: Nanna Makes Firm the Foundations of the Land I named it. For my deeds, O Nanna my master, may you rejoice over me, and may days of happiness, a reign of abundance, a fate which cannot be overturned?, years of plenty, a good life as my lot and kingship as my portion, be presented to me. May my shepherdship in Nippur, Ur, and Larsa
never ever be altered. May I be the prince beloved of Nanna and Ningal. May my days be long.

When An, Enlil, Enki and Ninmah looked with steadfastness, and in Larsa, their beloved Ki'ur, their fates were determined, and their words were not changed, and their days were long, and a reign of abundance without water was established, and their head was presented. A constant water supply for the entirety of the land, the Tigris and Euphrates, since ancient times, when they had been brought up, and when they had not been brought up, its rams, the Mamishrat canal, the canal of abundance of the nation, its source, was established.
he shall bring to the sea. Lord Nunamnir, his utterance, shall raise his head. He shall return to his shepherdship. He shall sing a joyful omen, he shall decree a good fate. He shall make the canal wide. Sumer and Akkad shall bring water of abundance, he shall make large irrigated fields grow. He shall make the barley grow abundantly. He shall make the wells of its orchards ..., ..., and ... drink beer and wine, and in its marshes fish and birds tremble. The great mountain of Enlil shall give him a great aegis. I am the shepherd who has the benevolent aegis of Enlil, his king.
Who has a good eye, who has a good hearing, Rim-Sîn, my shepherd who has a bright mind, who has broad understanding, Enki gave to me, and he made it abundant for me. I made the canal flow, and my heart ... there. That canal, on the bank of the Mami-sharat canal, the canal of abundance of the nation, ... I filled with ..., and its ... I made a plan. ... The many people, its shepherdship, Enlil gave to me, and from the sig to the horizon I made them grow. I made them grow strong with my strength.
The 'face' of its diadem is like a mountain range. I made it shine like a rainbow. I made it a 'gate' of abundance. I made it a 'gate' of abundance. I made it a 'gate' of abundance. I made its banks a 'tree' of reeds. I made its name a 'tree' of reeds. I made its name a 'tree' of water forever. I made the Tigris and Euphrates return to their original places. I made Rim-Sîn, king of Larsa and king of Sumer and Akkad, I made my broad land a 'tree' of water. I made its foundations firm. I made its cities a 'tree' return to its place. I made the people of my land drink water.
In the heart of Enlil I rejoiced. For this, An, Enlil, Enki and Ninmah, for the life of a long time I gave. A reign of abundance and a throne with a firm foundation I presented to them. The foundations of my royal name I have established. For far-off days, I have established a large population.
When An, Enlil, Enki, and Ninmah directed a righteous eye towards me, and when for Larsa, their beloved leveled place, they determined its destiny. and with their unalterable word they commanded its creation, and a reign of abundance with unceasing water they presented to me. Everlasting water as the portion of the nation, water which the Tigris and Euphrates since ancient times had always brought forth and at no time ever ceases, half of it the Mamisharrat Canal, the canal of abundance of the nation, whose waters were from the Tigris and the Euphrates, when it had taken them away from there
it poured them into the Sea. Lord Nunamnir, whose utterances create with great care, turned towards the shepherd who pleased him and, having spoken joyously, determined for him a good fate: namely to dig canals in order into Sumer and Akkad to bring waters of abundance, to make the speckled barley grow on its great agricultural tracts, to make its irrigated orchards richly produce date syrup and grapes, to make its marshes joyfully provide fish and birds, Great Mountain Enlil issued the great orders. I who am the god-fearing shepherd who walks beside Enlil, I, Rim-Sîn, who am the man of Great Mountain Enlil,
one who possesses wisdom and perfects true intelligence, I, Rim-Sîn, the faithful shepherd of the Blacked Headed People, when the wide wisdom given to me by Enki he improved? regarding it, to dig the canal he inspired me. When Enlil? had inspired? me to do it, that canal alongside the Mama-sharrat canal, the canal of abundance of the nation, ... I dug, ... and skillfully I executed the plans ... When the numerous peoples whose shepherding Enlil gave to me from below and above I had brought together, by my mighty strength I did the task.
When I had built its two levees like a mountain range, I filled them up with divine radiance. After I had secured abundant water at its intake, I continued extending its outlet. Upon its banks I multiplied luxuriant sweet-smelling grasses. That canal - the Tuqmat-Erra Canal they named it. The everlasting waters of both the Tigris and the Euphrates I restored. I, Rim-Sîn, the king of Larsa and king of Sumer and Akkad, I made secure the foundations of my wide country. I restored its cities and settlements. For my numerous people I established food to eat and water to drink. When I had unified harmoniously Sumer and Akkad,
I indeed pleased the heart of Enlil. For this, may An, Enlil, Enki and Ninmah give to me a long life, and a reign of abundance, a throne with a firm foundation may they present to me. When I have had foundation documents inscribed to praise my royal revealed name, the numerous peoples will praise me forever.

The man who the gipar temple, for its lordship, built a pure place, I am the one who is adorned with a great crown When Nanna and Ningal, their bright eyes, for their life and happiness they gave to them, in the shrine Ekishnugal, the residence of their divinity, I named them, and in the pure mouth, for the sake of life I placed them, and in the time of the life of Rim-Sîn, my brother, I was able to smite him, and in the land of his enemy I made him hold his hands.
At that time, the pure gipar, my residence of en priesthood, whose brickwork was not removed from its foundation, Enaedu, the lord, who has a great name, is the son of Kudur-mabuk. The pure gipar, whose foundation is smashed, has been firmly fixed. Its walls have been clad with a sash, and the work has been done. Its walls have been reconstructed. At that time, the old unu was ruined. The old cult center of en priests, the old en priests, had not been seized. Its gugirs were thrown into the open country. The guard was dissolved, and its place was wiped away. I have been deprived of my great wisdom, and en priesthood. After I have been enthroned,
The lords, the older, the older, the broad uzug, I seized, and its abandoned place I seized, and the great wall I seized. The mighty guard I seized, and its place I adorned. The name chosen by me for my lordship I fashioned, and its work I deposited there. The foundations of my lordship I fashioned, and from the day I fashioned them, and its wall I named, and its name I fashioned.
Enanedu, en priestess of Nanna, having the great fate of the en office from the womb on, a nobility of heaven, beloved of her heart, the brightness? of the en office set upon her body by Ningal's own hand, fitting one of the Ekishnugal temple, the rival of high heaven, ornament of the agrun cella, burning light coming forth for the nation, sacredly suited for the crown of the en office, properly chosen for the divine plans and lustrations of the en office, reverent princess who serves at the lustrations for the exalted platform of the royal house, I, Enanedu, the en priestess who may look upon Nanna and Ningal in Ur, the foremost city of Sumer, where zanaru instruments are played for Ashimbabbar,
a person most fitting for the gipar built on a pure place for its office of en - when Nanna and Ningal having looked at me with their shining brows, and life and a joyous regard they gave to me, and in the shrine Ekishnugal, the residence of their divinity, they having exalted my name, having placed in my pure mouth prayers of life, and my correctly guiding hand - in order that the life of Rim-Sîn, my twin! brother, could be extended - they, togther with him, did exert it, and so his foreign enemies they having put fully into his hands -
at that time, the sacred gipar, my residence of the en office, its bricks no longer lying against? its base, I, Enanedu, en priestess, truly named with an exalted name, the daughter of Kudur-mabuk, I laid correctly fitting bricks against the old base of the sacred gipar. I covered with plaster its inner walls fitted to within a finger-length. I created that house anew. At that time, the Hall That Has Brought Bitterness, the cleared land of 'fates' where the old en priestesses were, that place was not encircled with a wall, and its entrances and its .. had collapsed. No watch was set up and that place was no longer pure. I, by my great wisdom, sought out a place for going to one's fate forever afterward.
Surpassing the resting place of the old en priestesses I established a broad sacred area. I surrounded that collapsed place with a big wall, set there a strong watch, and I purified that place. To show my name chosen for the office of en, I did indeed restore this work. Foundation documents in praise of my office of en I had inscribed and had it laid there for whatsoever time it may exist. I named that wall: May the One Who Shows Fear of Me Be Praised.

a jar of musuku-stone, a pure water vessel, to be poured out, and everything that from that day the lady who saw me had made, I built. The holy gate of the courtyard of the E-murur, the place of joy of the Land, I set up there. From the hand of evildoers to Lirish-gamlum I brought. The Asag and Ashbur trembled, the trembled, the trembled, the trembled, the trembled, I slew. I slew. I slew. I slew.

If he appoints him, and if he appoints him to another position, and if he erases his inscription and his name he writes, and he appoints him, and a foreigner he has sworn, that man, Inanna, queen of all the lands, may his heart be happy and his heart be happy.
For Inanna, the angry goddess, with head held high in the throne room, exalted one, brightest in all the lands, whose face is full of radiance, steadfast goddess whose proud heart is good, she of far-reaching compassion who those in straights and sickness she knows well how to take in hand, my lady - for the life of Rim-Sîn, king of Larsa, and of Lirish-gamlum his daughter, I, Rim-Sîn-Shala-bashtashu, beloved wife of Rim-Sîn, daughter of Sîn-magir, the humble woman, ornament worthy of kingship - when my lady by a beautiful name truly called me, for this, to Inanna, as I made fine words of prayer,

When Utu, the great lord of heaven and earth, king of the gods, Hammurapi, the prince, his favorite, looked with his shining face with pleasure, he made a lasting kingship and a long reign come forth.

At that time Hammurapi, the mighty king, king of Babylon, who has no rival, Utu, who has no rival,
Marduk, his master, gave to him the supreme strength of Utu. From the steadfast army of my land, from the destruction of the wall of Sippar, from the dust of the great mountains, he raised its top. The great wall he built. Since time immemorial, king-sharru-neer, the king who was not a king, he built it. That wall, which he had fashioned for Utu, he built for him. That wall, which he had fashioned for Utu, he did not have any rival. That name, in my favorable reign, Utu had made beautiful, and that Sippar, the old city of Utu, its troops with a rake for Utu he had fashioned for him. That canal he had cleared away, and its mooring place
He placed abundance and abundance in it. He placed it for the people of Sippar. He placed it in the sila of life. He made it shine with a shud prayer. The name of Utu, my master, and Aya, my mistress, he placed there. My good name, daily as if it were a god given to me, forever he did not attain it. He placed it in the mouth of the people.
When Utu, great lord of heaven and earth, king of the gods, at me, Hammurapi, the prince agreeable to him, with his shining eyes happily looked, and an everlasting kingship and a reign of long days he presented to me; and the foundation of the land, to exercise the lordship over which he gave to me, he made secure for me; of Sippar and Babylon their people to settle in peaceful habitations with his holy word that cannot be altered he commanded me, and the wall of Sippar to build and its top to raise up he gave me the great order. At that time, I, Hammurapi, the mighty king, king of Babylon, god-fearing one who heeds Utu, who is the beloved of Sherda,
who pleases the heart of Marduk his master - by the exalted strength which Utu gave me, through a troop levy of my land the foundation of the wall of Sippar with earth like a huge mountain its top I raised up, and the great wall I built.

When Enlil, king of the gods, great lord of the land, to Shamash with his good counsel he looked, and Sippar, the exalted city, his cult center he built, and the Ebabbar to its place he returned, and its exalted throne, like the heavens, its top as high as the heavens, Shamash and Aya to their pure dwellings in the top and the bottom he entered, and by his command which cannot be changed he said. At that time, the hero of Shamash to the great destiny of Enlil to Sippar
As a slander he had sinned against him. Samsu-iluna, the king, his own hand, he sinned against me kindly, and he sinned against me. At that time, the flood of the land of Sumer and Akkad, which they had brought about, in the midst of that year, for eighteenths of a year with weapons I smashed. The cities of my enemies to ruins and ruin hills I returned. The foundations of the enemies and evil in the country I smashed. The flood of the country to my command I settled. That which from distant days
he built. In a king of the past no king of the world had listened to Shamash and the wall of Sippar had not built. Samsu-iluna, beloved of Shamash and Aya, the mighty king, king of Babylon, king of the four world quarters, king whose command is pleasing to Shamash and Aya, I, by the command of Shamash and Marduk, in the midst of my land, in the midst of that year, I laid its bricks. The wall of Sippar, like a great mountain, I raised up. The Ebabbar I renovated. The unir, his exalted throne
Afterwards, Shamash, Adad, and Aya, for their pure dwellings, in the beginning and the end he brought. To Ebabbar, his protective spirit, he returned. The one who above Shamash, Adad, and Aya, was happy, he did. By the command of Shamash and Marduk I established. That wall, Shamash to Samsu-iluna he gave to him. That lordly majesty, avengement, and life, that is his name. To that Shamash, the foremost kingship, life, happiness, eternal life, king who has no rival,
Who establishes the land, who gives the strong weapon, who establishes the enemies, who entrusted the four world quarters to the one who does obeisance, for his own life he gave to him.
When Enlil, king of the gods, great lord of the lands, at Shamash with his features excellent looked, and Sippar, his ancient cult city, to built its wall, the Ebabbar to its previous condition to return, the ziggurrat's high terrace lofty its head like the heavens to raise up, Shamash and Aya into their residence sacred in joy and rejoicing to let enter, with his utterance which cannot be altered commanded, at that time, the hero, youthful Shamash - for the great destinies which Enlil for Sippar and the Ebabbar had decreed
joyfylly having been established for him— Samsu-iluna, the king, the creation of his hand, me, gladly called, and that order gave me. At that time, the totality of the land of Sumer and Akkad, which had become hostile to me, within one year 8 times with weapons I indeed slaughtered. The cities of those hostile to me into mounds and ruins I indeed turned. The foundations of the enemies and evil ones from the country I tore out. The whole country under my command I made to dwell. Since the distant day when the brickwork of the Ebabbar
had been constructed, among former kings no king had been favored by Shamash, and so the wall of Sippar did not build for him, but Samsu-iluna, the beloved of Shamash and Aya, the mighty king, king of Babylon, king of the quarters four, king whose decrees with Shamash and Aya find favor, I— at the command of Shamash and Marduk by a levy of the army of my land in the middle of that year its bricks I formed, the wall of Sippar like a great mountain I raised up. The Ebabbar I renovated, their ziggurrat's high terrace exalted its head like heaven
I raised. Shamash, Adda and Aya into their residence sacred in joy and rejoicing I caused to enter. To the Ebabbar its guardian genius favorable I returned. That which to Shamash, Adda, and Aya was pleasing I did. The command of Shamash and Marduk I well executed. That wall: "Shamash to Samsu-iluna has given dominion, power and life" is its name. For this, Shamash, the one raises the head his kingship, life, happiness of heart everlasting, a kingship which a rival has none, a scepter of justice
that makes secure the land, a strong weapon that slays the enemies, and rule over the quarters four to exercise forever, as his gift he gave to him.

When Anu and Enlil, king of heaven and earth, to Marduk, the first-born son of the Ea, joyfully he entrusted him with the lordship of the four quarters, he gave him; in the Anunnaku the exalted name he named him; Babylon, its foundations like heaven and earth he made firm for him. At that time, Marduk and Enlil, his land, the god who created me, wisdom, to Samsu-iluna, king who is his own, to the shepherd he gave. His land, the aburru-plant, the stele, his widespread people
to the everlasting one he gave me. I, Samsu-iluna, the mighty king, king of Babylon, king who makes the four world quarters firm, I, with my great strength and my great understanding, the wall of Anzagar-Enlil for Ninmah, my mother, my offspring, the wall of Pada for Adad, my helper, the wall of Lagaba for Sîn, my god, the wall of the city Iabushum for Lugal-asal, who makes my kingship, the wall of the city of Gulaba and the wall Ushi-ana-Erra
The fate of my enemies.
of Sumû-la-Il, the great father, the father of my father, he greatly did. In their former years, in their own time, I smashed them, and in the second month, their bricks I piled up. They piled up their heads like a pile. The totality of the land I firmly established their foundations. Babylon I named it. In the four quarters of the world I made it shine. Fear of my royal image on the border of heaven and earth I established. For this, the great gods in their reeds,
The life which like Sîn her husband had given to him, the shepherd of the four quarters of the world in peace forever, to the well-being of my heart like god, daily in the high heavens, in joy and happiness of heart I went, for the future I granted to you.
When Anum and Enlil, the kings of heaven and earth, at Marduk, the first-born son of Ea, looked happily and the rule over the four world quarters did give to him, among the Anunnaku did call him by an exalted name, and Babylon's foundation like heaven and earth did make secure for him - then Marduk the Enlil of his land, the divine creator of wisdom, to Samsu-iluna, the king of his delight, me - the totality of the lands he gave me for shepherding, and to make his land lie down in riverine meadows and his wide-spread people in well-being
to lead forever he ordered me grandly. Samsu-iluna, the mighty king, king of Babylon, the king who makes harmonious the world quarters the four, I - by my own power and by my great intelligence the fort Dimat-Enlil, for Ninmah the mother who created me, the fort Pada for Ishkur my helper, fort Lagaba for Sîn the god who created me, fort Iri-Iabushum for Shar-sharbatim who magnifies my kingship, fort Iri-Gulaba and the fort Ushi-ana-Erra for Nergal,
the smiter of my enemies,
which Sumû-la-Il, my great forefather, my forefather of the fifth generation, had built, but which in their old age of ther own accord had fallen into ruin, within two months their bricks I had made and I rebuilt them in a grand fashion. Their tops I raised up like mountains, and so I secured the foundations of the totality of the lands. The name of Babylon I made supreme, and in the four world quarters I indeed made it pre-eminent. The fearsomeness of the divine radiance of my kingship the borders of heaven and earth did indeed cover. For this, the great gods with their shining faces indeed looked at me,
and life, which like that of Sîn is monthly renewed; the shepherding of the four world quarters in peace to exercise forever; the desire of my heart to attain, like a god; and daily with a high head in joy and happiness to walk, for a gift they did indeed present to me.

When An and Enlil, king of heaven and earth, Marduk, the first-born son of Enki, looked with pleasure upon him, and the lordship of the four quarters he gave to him, and the Anuna gods he made great, and Babylon whose foundations he made as firm as heaven, at that time, Marduk and Enlil of his country, the gods who determine your divinity, he made. Samsu-iluna, the king of his land, he himself knew, and all the lands in their entirety, he gave to him the shepherdship. He made his country a cult center, and he made his broad people prosper.
Samsu-iluna, the mighty king, king of Babylon, king of the four world quarters, who has listened to the mouths of the people, you are the one who, with strength and wisdom, has made the great wall of Anzagar-Enlil and Ninhursaga, my mother, he has made great; the wall of Pada, Ishkur my helper, the wall of Lagaba, Nanna, the god who raises the head, the wall of the city of Yabum and Lugal-Asal, my royal name, he has made great; the wall of the city of Gulaba and the wall of Ushiana-Erra, Nergal, the good news of the enemy,
Sumû-la-il, my great father, I built. My lordly name they swore by their name. In the second month their bricks I fashioned. Their heads like mountains I fashioned. Their foundations I fashioned. Babylon, its name I made supreme. In the four quarters of the world I made it shine. My aura of kingship I adorned in the center of heaven. In the netherworld I made the great gods shine like light. Life as Nanna had made in a month.
In order to make the rites of the future as secure as a mountain, I made my gods bow down at my feet. In order to make the days of the future as joyful as a mountain, I made them bow down at my feet.
When An and Enlil, the kings of heaven and earth, toward Marduk, the first-born son of Enki, their joyful eyes did direct, the rule of the four world quarters did give to him, before the Anunna gods his exalted name did call, and Babylon's foundation, like that of heaven and earth did make firm for him - then Marduk, the Enlil of his land, the god who wisdom creates, to me, Samsu-iluna, who is the king his delight, of all those lands to exercise their shepherding he did give me, and his country to make lie down in riverine meadows, and his wide-spread people to lead forever in well-being,
he issued to me these great instructions. I, Samsu-iluna, the mighty king, king of Babylon, king who among the four world quarters established harmony, by my own power and through my great intelligence, the fort Dimat-Enlil for Ningursaga the mother who created me, the fort Pada for Ishkur my helper, the fort Lagaba for Nanna the god who goes at my head, the fort Iri-Iabushum for Shar-sharbatim because my kingship he had made very great, the fort Iri-Gulaba and the fort Ushi-ana-Erra for Nergal because the smiting of my foes he did accomplish,
which Sumû-la-Il, my forefather my fifth-generation ancestor, did build, but which in their old age by themselves did collapse, within two months their bricks I had made, and I rebuilt them in a grand fashion. Their tops I raised up like mountains, and thus of the whole of the lands their foundations I made secure. Babylon's name I made supreme, and within the four world quarters I truly made it pre-eminent. The fearsomeness of the divine radiance of my kingship truly covered the edges of heaven and earth. For this, the great gods their shining faces they directed towards me, and life, which like the moon-god Nanna waxes month after month, shepherdship of the four world quarters
to exercise in well-being forever, the desire of my heart to attain like a god, and daily with an uplifted head to walk in joy and happiness they presented to me as a gift.

Enlil, whose lord to the god, the shurbatu-priest, shepherd of the fates, Zababa and Ishtar, the hero, with his pure utterances, saw them, and the city Kish, the first-ranking cult center, their exalted fate, their exalted fate, his wall built, his head up above that of the heavens, his heart joyfully he made rise, and Enlil, the great lord, whose command cannot be changed, the fate of his fate cannot be altered, Zababa, his eldest son, the one who conquered his enemies,
Lady, whose divinity cannot be changed, with his supplications of supplications he looked at them, and a word of well-being with them he spoke, Samsu-iluna, the strong one, the unrivalled one, who my heart to Assyria he sent, the one who knows, may your light be bright, and you have been a good one, may good things be upon him, and his enemies, the enemies of his enemies, to his hands he shall go, and the city Kish his wall may he build, above that of the face may he make manifest, in the place of well-being of my heart
Zababa and Ishtar, the lords of sagapurutum, the sagapurutum of the gods, to the word of their father Enlil commanded them, their hearts rejoiced, and to Samsu-iluna, the mighty king, shepherd of the warriors, their hands, their feet, of life, they swore, and they were frightened with him. Samsu-iluna, the seed of the gods eternal, the life-giving gift of Enlil, your destiny, he made great, to your greatness, in order to make your work be done, he made me bow down.
We are your enemies, we are your enemies, we are your hands. The city Kish, the cult center, is a great place. Its wall is elevated above that which is to be rebuilt. Samsu-iluna, the king who listens to the word of the great gods, to the word of Zababa and Ishtar, he was mighty, and his weapons to the enemy he sent. The campaign to the outskirts of his enemies he sent. The campaign did not succeed. Rim-Sîn, the fugitive of Sumer and Akkad, who to the kingship of Larsa
In the territory of Kish a wife seized him.
his ziggurat he smashed, their reeds he smashed. The gods, king of Ishnunna, did not listen to his words, he smashed with the sword, and his life he made great. The totality of the land of Sumer and Akkad he made great, and the four quarters of the world he made bow down to his command. At that time, Samsu-iluna the mighty, with the strength of his army, the city Kish he built, and its walls he surrounded with a marsh. With the great foundations of his foundations he firmly established like a mountain.
in one year its top up higher than before, for this Zababa and Ishtar to Samsu-iluna the lords of their lordship, life and life which like Sîn and Shamash eternally for the gift may they give him, for the offering may they grant him.
Enlil, whose lordship is the greatest among the gods, the shepherd who determines the destinies, Zababa and Ishtar, the warriors among the Igigi gods, with his pure face he regarded them, and the city Kish, the foremost cult site, their exalted residence, to built its wall, and its top more than before to raise up, his heart truly moved him. And Enlil, the great lord, whose utterance cannot be overturned - the destiny which he determines cannot be altered - at Zababa his heir, the mighty, who achieves his victories, and Inanna, the daughter whom he loves,
the lady whose divinity is unrivaled, with his face of happiness he regarded them, and words of heart-felt happiness he spoke with them: Samsu-iluna, my envoy, mighty and untiring, who how the desire of my heart to accomplish does know, his shining light may you both be. May your omen be favorable for him. Kill his enemies, his foes into his hands put fully, that the city Kish's wall he may build. Let him make it greater than ever before and so in a residence of heart-felt happiness may he let you both dwell.
Zababa and Ishtar, the most perfect lords the most powerful among the gods, at the words which their father Enlil had spoken to them their hearts rejoiced wholeheartedly, and to Samsu-iluna, the mighty king, the heroic shepherd, the creation of their hands, their faces of life they raised shiningly to him and spoke joyfully with him: O Samsu-iluna, eternal seed of the gods, one fit for kingship, Enlil your destiny has magnified. Guardianship over you in well-being to exercise he has instructed us. At your right side we will go,
we will kill your enemies, and your foes into your hands we will put fully. The city Kish, our awe-inspiring cult site, built its wall! More than before make it greater! Samsu-iluna, the capable king, one who heeds the great gods, the word which Zababa and Ishtar had spoken to him he trusted completely, and his weaponry for the killing of his enemies he prepared. On a campaign to slay his enemies he set forth. The year was not half over when Rim-Sîn, who had caused to rebel Emutbala, and who to the kingship of Larsa had been elevated, he slew, and
in the territory of Kish he heaped up a burial mound over him.
his foes, he slew; he slaughtered them all. Iluni, the king of Eshnunna, who did not heed his words, he defeated, in a neck-stock he led him away, and his life he devoured. The totality of the country of Sumer and Akkad he caused to be of one mind. The four world quarters under his command he caused to dwell. At that time, Samsu-iluna, the mighty, through the strength of his army built the city of Kish. He dug its canal, surrounded it with a reed marsh, and with much earth made its foundations as firm as a mountain. He had the bricks for it formed
and built its wall. Within one year its top he raised up more than before. For this, Zababa and Ishtar to Samsu-iluna, their prince and close brother well-being and life, which like Sîn and Shamash is eternal, for a gift may they bestow upon him, and as a present may they present to him.

Enlil, his kingship, the gods, he swore. The shepherd who decrees the fate of Zababa and Inanna, the great princes, he swore. In his holy presence he swore: "The city Kish, their supreme residence, whose wall is built, whose top is more than that of its past, he swore in his heart a good fate. Enlil, the great lord, whose command cannot be changed, whose fate he decrees, and whose oath is unchangeable, his oath is uttered. Inanna, his beloved daughter,
'I am not a stranger, he looked at me with pleasure, and he spoke to me with a favorable word. Samsu-iluna, the mighty minister, was not a stranger, my heart was a tumma. In that place he set up a scepter. May you be his bright bed. May the gods be his counsellors. The words of his father Enlil were spoken to him, and his heart was filled with joy. Samsu-iluna, the mighty king, shepherd and hero, their command, may they be their strength, and may they be their strength.
Samsu-iluna, the eternal seed of the gods, may the kingship of Enlil be abundant. Your kingship is a mighty thing. You have been able to do it with your righteous udug. You have been able to make the righteous man rise up. You have been able to raise the head. You have been able to raise the head. You have been able to raise the head of the enemy. The city Kish, the cult center, ..., ..., its wall was built. Its utterances were uttered. Samsu-iluna, his personal god, king of Eshnunna, did not have a word.
From the scepter that he had fashioned, he smashed his life with a sword. He smashed the mouth of Sumer and Akkad with a hammer. In the four quarters of the world he sat down. At that time, Samsu-iluna, the mighty man, by the strength of his army, the city Kish he built. Its ruins he cleared away. From the great earth, its foundation
Enlil, whose kingship of all the gods is the greatest, the shepherd who determines the destinies, because Zababa and Inanna among the great divine princes were the most heroic, he looked at them with his holy eyes. The city Kish, their foremost cult site and exalted residence, to build its wall and to raise up its top more than before his heart truly moved him. And Enlil, the great lord, whose utterance cannot be overturned and a fate which he determines cannot be altered, To him Zababa who his victories achieves, and Inanna, the daughter whom he loves, the lady whose divinity
is unrivaled, his joyful eyes he directed towards them, and words of heart-felt happiness he spoke with them. Samsu-iluna, my envoy, mighty and untiring, who the desire of my heart knows how to put in place, may you both be his shining light. Zababa and Ishtar the most majestic of the gods, at the words that their father Enlil had spoken to them, their hearts rejoiced full of delight. To Samsu-iluna, the mighty king, the shepherd and hero, their accomplishment, their countenances of life they lifted shiningly towards him, and joyfully they conversed with him.
O Samsu-iluna, eternal seed of kingship, one fitting for kingship, Enlil has magnified your destiny. To act with well-being as your guardian genies he has commanded us. When we shall have gone at your right side the persons who hate you we shall smite, and your foes we shall put into your hands. The city Kish, our awe-inpiring cult site, build its wall! Make it greater than what was there before! Samsu-iluna, Iluni, the king of Eshnunna, who did not heed his words, he held onto.
With his neck held in a neck-stock he brought him in, and his life he slew with a knife. All of Sumer and Akkad he caused to be of one mind. The four world quarters under his command he caused to dwell. At that time, Samsu-iluna, the mighty man, through the strength of his army, rebuilt the the city Kish. He dug its canal, and with much earth its foundation

To Shamash, king of heaven and earth, the one who oversees the gods and the people, whose steadfastness is pleasing to him, the one who provides for the shepherdship, the shepherd of the midst of the midst of the gods, the one who oversees the steadfastness, the one who accepts prayers, the one who accepts prayers, the one who gives supplications, the one who provides life of long days, to his lordship of Mari, Iahdun-Lim, son of Iagid-Lim, king of Mari and the land Hana, on the bank of the Tigris River
The one who the steles, the emblem of my name, the one who establishes abundance and abundance for his people, who enlarges everything, in his land, the strong king, the mighty, the mighty, when Shamash his prayers he entrusted to him, and his command he heard, Shamash Yahdun-Lim he seized, and in his presence he went, and who since the day of the creation of the city of Mari the god created, the king who dwells in Mari the sea, he conquered, the mountain of cedar and cedar, the great mountains, he did not conquer.
Ahdun-Lim, son of Iagid-Lim, the great king, the princely prince, in strength and strength to the border of the sea went and to the sea his great royal gifts he presented, and his army in the sea he smote. To the mountain of cedar and cedar, the great mountains, he entered, and cedar, cypress, and elammaku trees, these he cut down, and a scepter he fashioned, and his name he established and his limbs he fashioned.
That land of the sea he confined to the mouth, he made it stand before him, and he made it stand before him. The scepter of the sea he imposed upon them, and their tribute he gave to him. That year, Laum, king of Samanum and the land of Uranum, Bahlukulum, king of Tuttul and the land of Amnani, Ayalum, king of Abattim and the land of the great, these kings, they imposed upon him, and for their life they captured. Sumu-epuh of the land of Iamhad.
In the city Samanum, the army of the wife of a man, gathered around him and in the strong camp
who a son of mine swore, their captives and captives their life he killed, their captives he captured, their shalmatu-offerings he established, their sharisu-offerings he sealed, and to the city and the sea he established them. The city Haman, the army of Hana, whose father the Hana-offerings had made, he sealed, and to the city and the sea he established them. Further, his king, Kashur-hala, he sealed, and their scribal arts he slew, and to his life the temple of Shamash, his lord,
a sage, the one who is a sage, the one who is the sage of his divinity, he made him reside in his great residence. That house, Egirzalanki, that house, the one who dwells in heaven and earth, Shamash, who dwells in that house, to Yahdun-Lim, creator of his house, king, beloved of his heart, mighty, the one who conquers the enemy, the one who has a scepter, the one who provides for his life and the one who provides for the abundance of the land forever, may he grant him. That house, the one who dwells in that house, may he make evil.
and unfavorable he shall punish, her heir shall not give birth, her mutilated limbs shall not be shaved, and nindaba shall not eat, my name shall erase, my name shall erase, and I shall write thereon my name shall not erase, and my name shall write thereon my name shall erase, and my name shall write thereon another name shall make great. That man, whether king, or governor, or great, or man, that man, may Enlil, the inscription of the god, his king, may he erase in the mouth of the king, Sîn, the great man, in the god his brothers
May Nergal, the lord of the chariot, his chariot, make his name be known, and may the Ea, the king of the future, his fate decree. May Aya, the great lady, be his wife, his words forever before Shamash. Bunene, the shukal of Shamash, the great lord, his life, may he smite him, may his anger and his slander and his name before Shamash be known.
To Shamash, king of heaven and earth, judge of the gods and humanity, whose office is justice and to whom truth for a gift has been presented, shepherd of the Black Headed Ones, manifest god, judge of those endowd with life, who is agreeable to petition, listens to prayer, accepts supplication, gives a happy life of long days to one who reveres him, namely he who is Mari's ruler, Iahdun-Lim, son of Iaggid-Lim, king of Mari and the land of Hana, who opens canals, who builds walls,
who erects stelas bearing his name, who establishes abundance and plenty for his people, who produces every sort of things in his land, the mighty king and splendid youth - when Shamash to his petitions did agree, and listened to what he said, Shamash to Iahdun-Lim hastened to walk at his side. Since olden times when the God built Mari, no king residing in Mari had reached the sea, nor the mountains of cedar and boxwood, the great mountains, had he ever reached and cut down their trees.
But Iahdun-Lim, the son of Iaggid-Lim, the powerful king, a wild bull of kings, by his own power and overwhelming strength to the shore of the sea he went, and to the sea an offering for his kingship, a big one, he offered, and his troops in the sea washed themselves with water. Then into the mountains of cedat and boxwood, the great mountains, he entered, and boxwood, cedar, cypress, and elammaku, these trees he cut down. He made a commemorative monument RIME, established his name, and made his power known.
That land on the shore of the sea he made submit, caused it to live subject to his decree, and made it follow after him. A permanent tribute he imposed upon them, and their tribute is still being brought to him. In that same year, La'um, king of Samanum and the land of the Ubrabium, Bahlukullim, king of Tuttul and the land of the Amnanum, Aialum, king of Abattum and of the land of the Rabbum - these kings rebelled against him, and to their assistance the troops of Sumû-Epuh of the land of Iamhad came, and
in the city of Samanum the main contingent of Mar Mîm gathered together against him, and with heavy weaponry
of Mar Mîm he defeated. Their troops and their auxiliary troops he slew. He inflicted a defeat upon them and piled up their corpses. Their walls he broke down, and into ruined mounds and ruin heaps he made them. The city of Haman of the main contingent of Hana, which all the elders of Hana had built, he destroyed, and to ruin mounds and ruin heaps he made them. Further, he defeated their king Kaşuri-Hala. He deported their population and took control of the banks of the Euphrates. For his own life, the temple of Shamash his lord, a temple whose construction was perfect and
completed with masterly craftsmanship, a thing befitting his divinity, he built for him. In his majestic residence he settled him. The name of that temple he called: Egirizalanki that is Temple - Delight of Heaven and Earth. Shamash, who resides in that temple, to Iahdun-Lim the builder of his temple, the king beloved of his heart, a mighty weapon which conquers the foe, a long reign of happiness, and years of joyous abundance, forever, may he grant to him. But the one who that temple shall destroy, to evil
and no good shall ... to it, who does not strengthen its foundation, who does not erect again what has fallen down, or who the regular offering meals shall cut off from it, who shall efface my inscription or shall cause it to be effaced and shall write his own name which had not been written there, or shall cause it to be written, or because of the curse shall procure another to do it - that man, whether he be a king, or a viceroy, or a mayor, or just a common man, that man may Enlil, the judge of the gods, make his rule the shortest among all kings. May Sîn, the eldest brother among the gods his brothers curse him with a great
curse. May Nergal, the lord of weapons, break his weapon, so that he cannot withstand warriors?. May Ea, the king of destiny, determine for him an evil destiny. May the daughter-in-law Aia, the great lady, speak badly of him before Shamash forever. May Bunene the cheif vizier of Shamash cut his throat. May he pluck up his seed, and may his offspring and progeny : not walk in the presence of Shamash.
