All the treasures of kingship, the fattened sheep whose skins are thick, the sacrificial sheep of the heavens, the sacrificial sheep whose sacrificial sheep to eat, the sacrificial sheep, horses, mules, oxen, and sheep and goats, camels, and sacrificial sheep, together with their camels, I received.

In my ninth regnal year Ashur, my lord, encouraged me and marched to the lands Ekapsi, Esangi, Eurzakki, Madaya, Ezualzash, Emati, Tupliyash. I conquered the cities E-Ishtar, Kinkanigi, Indi-giasu, Kingalkasish, Kubush-hatidish, Upushu, Ahsipuna, Girgirâ, and Kimbakhati, together with cities in their environs. I carried off their booty.

At that time, I made a pointed iron arrow, the omen of Ashur, my lord, and wrote on it. I set it up on the quay of the city E-Ishtar. Upash, son of Kapsi, assembled his people and went up Mount Abirus. I pursued him, killed him, and carried off his booty.

Palace of Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, king of the four quarters of the world, favorite of the great gods, the god Ashur, father of the gods, looked steadfastly upon me among all rulers and made my weapons greater than those of all who sit on royal daises. At that time, the palace in the citadel of Nineveh which the kings, my ancestors, had had built, and its site had become too small; the Tebilti River became too small and its flood was in its flood.

I surrounded its foundations. That palace in its entirety I razed. The Tebilti canal I dug and its canal I made flow. Its access-way I made enter inside its a-sur-rak-ki. I surrounded it with large cedar beams. I bonded together with large limestone slabs. 3 hundred and forty cubits is the length.

219 cubits is the width;

I brought the qaqqaru from the land and turned it into a terrace. I added the terrace to the former terrace and for 700 large aslu-cubits the length and 440 large aslu-cubits the width, and for the whole terrace, I raised it to a height of 100? cubits. The palace of breccia, agate, elephant ivory, ebony, boxwood, meskannu-wood, cedar, cypress, juniper, and elamaku-wood, as my royal residence,

In it a window-house, a replica of a Hittite palace, opposite its gates, I had built. I roofed them with beams of cedar and cypress. I fastened bands of silver and copper on doors of liari and cypress and I installed them in their gates. At the gates, I opened the openings of the biarri. I hung lamassus-plants of alabaster and elephant ivory on them. I set up a door-jamb and a silver kettle.

and copper in them he clad. With baked bricks of alum and lapis lazuli he surrounded them and a terrace of all their gardens. Because of the construction of my palace, I had it completed. At that time, Ashur and Ishtar, who love my priestly service, a cedar canopy, which since distant days grew tall in the Sirara mountain range, he made their limbs secure. Of alabaster, which in the distant past

The kings, my ancestors, to the karru of steles, the exalted ones, in the wide plain of the land Ammanana, they sent to him. Further, the breccia, as much as is needed for making burzigallu-bowls, in the territory of the city Balataya, a white limestone slab for making a soup, they saw, and bull colossi, sphinxes, alabaster, and the sphinxes of alabaster, together with the sphinxes of alabaster, I cut down, and in their midst I slew.

In Nineveh, a limestone slab which was discovered in the territory of Balataya, I had made for bull colossi and sphinxes. By divine will, I have made 12 lions, lion-headed, as many as there are.

12 magnificent bull colossi, 22 sphinxes of zi'pi-plant,

I fashioned and deposited it therein. I completed their work. Bull colossi of alabaster and copper, two of which were zahalû-shaped, bull colossi and sphinxes of white limestone, which were in my palaces, I fashioned for them. sphinxes of alabaster and pitrudel, urudû-plant, the ... of the high-quality silver, sphinxes of alabaster and pitrudel,

I set up magnificent copper columns, large cedar columns, as well as columns of ebony, cypress, dapranu-juniper, tattidu-juniper, and tatidu-wood, with a stele, a sash, and copper ..., and I surrounded their gates with slabs of breccia and alabaster, and large limestone slabs. At that time, I had water from the wells, a durable water vessel, bronze casserole, and bronze casseroles, and I made them as secure as a mountain.

I erected a scepter of alamu-wood upon the foundations and I erected it in those palaces. I enlarged the entire palace. The ... of the totality of the people I raised up. The palace which ... did not have, I erected. By the command of the god Ashur, father of the gods ... and Ishtar, my queen, may a good shedu and a good lamassu dwell inside it.

I raised its superstructure. For 700 large aslu-cubits I built, and for 400 large aslu-cubits I raised the top of the design of the palace and I erected therein a palace of breccia, alabaster, elephant ivory, ebony, boxwood, meskannu-wood, cedar, cypress, juniper, and elammaku-wood, for my lordly residence, I built therein a house of open country, replica of the palace of Hatti, before the cult centers.

I roofed them the palatial halls with beams of cedar and cypress. I fastened bands of silver and copper on doors of cypress and cypress and I installed them in their gates. At their gates, I opened the biarriru-vessels. I set up lamassus, elephant ivory, whose features are pure, with a tiara of lustration, as many as there were, at their gates and I made them an object of wonder. I decorated them with knobbed nails of silver and copper. .

As for the work on my palace that I had completed and the repair of my hands I completed. At that time, the god Ashur and the goddess Ishtar, who love my priestly service and who called my name, the cedar beams that from distant days had grown tall and great in the Si'ara mountains, in the midst of the mountains, they made their features shine forth like the gishnugal-stone, which in the time of the kings, my ancestors, was too expensive for the sacrificial net.

and a breccia, as much as is needed for a burzigallu-vessel, which had never been seen before, in Kapridargila he fashioned. In the territory of Nineveh in the territory of Balataya, by divine will, a white limestone slab was discovered in the marshes and bull colossi, sphinxes, geshnugal-stone, and a sphinx of geshnugal-stone, together with sphinxes, I fashioned. I hung them in their midst and for the construction of my palace

In Nineveh, a limestone slab that had become visible in the territory of Balataya, for bull colossi and sphinxes I had made and their assemblages I had made splendid. By divine will, the lions and the alamtu, 12 lions, the sphinxes, together with 12 colossi,

22 suckling ewes, whose bodies are fully sated, in my womb,

I fashioned a stele of good fortune and I erected it inside it. I made their steles, bull colossi of alabaster and copper, whose two parts are zahalû-shaped, bull colossi of white limestone, whose faces are the windows of my lordly palatial halls, secure their bands. Bull colossi of alabaster and pithoi of urudê-stone, whose top is a high-quality silver, bull colossi of a guanna-stone, together with 12 lions of bronze,

I set up in front of them magnificent columns of copper, large columns of cedar, as well as columns of ebony, cypress, dapranu-juniper, and tatidu-wood, with a glaze of bronze and copper, and I surrounded their gates with slabs of breccia and alabaster, and large limestone slabs. Because of this, every day, water for drinking is plentiful.

I had a bronze throne and a bronze harharu-vessel made, and like a sceptre, a sceptre and a sceptre hung over the wells. Further, for the queen Tashmetu-sharrat, the palace woman, my beloved, whom the Lady of Gods had made greater than all women, I had a palace of privileged status, joy, and pity built, and a sphinx of white limestone in its gates I stationed.

By the command of the god Ashur, father of the gods, and the goddess Ishtar, my queen, in happiness and joy in those palaces, for long days we will be your guests; the good shedu and the good lamassu will be at our disposal forever; may they never leave them.

I decorated them with silver and copper knobbed nails. I adorned the door bolts, bolts, and bolts with baked bricks and lapis lazuli and all their doors. Because the work of my palace I completed and the fitting of my hands I completed. At that time, Ashur and Ishtar, the ones who love my priesthood, the cedar trees, whose roots from distant days had grew tall and large in the Sierra mountains, in the plain,

As for the alabaster, whose appearance in the time of the kings, my ancestors, was exalted in the battlements, in the plain of the land Ammanana, and as much burzigallu-stone, bull colossi, and sphinxes of white limestone, which I had fashioned for my palaces, I clad their gates with magnificent copper columns, together with large cedar columns, which are the product of Mount Amanus, with copper bands and I hung them on poles.

I sat down and sat down on their gates. I erected abzazatu-stone, alabaster, as well as abzazatu-stone, pitruq-stone, urudû-stone, zahalû-stone, and abzazatu-stone, pitruq-stone, guana-stone, whose light was bright, ebony, ebony, cedar, dapranu-juniper, juniper, and tattidu-wood, with a scepter, and silver on their doors, and I placed the kunû-wood, their doors,

I surrounded their the palace rooms with breccia, alabaster, and large limestone slabs. I made them glisten like the sea. At that time, I had water for drinking, a durable substance, bronze guhashiru-vessels, and bronze harharu-vessels made and, like a ..., I surrounded them with ... reeds, cypress, and alamtu-wood. I made those palaces shine like the sun. I enlarged the entire palace for glistening.

The totality of the people, her first-born son, the palace which no other had, I created. By the command of the god Ashur, father of the gods, and the goddess Ishtar, my queen, may the good shedu and the good lamassu last forever and ever in that palace. May they not leave it.

Palace of Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, king of the four quarters of the world, favorite of the great gods, Ashur, father of the gods, looked steadfastly upon me among all rulers and made my weapons greater than those of all who sit on royal daises. In the plain of Kish I captured Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, king of Karduniash Babylonia.

As for him, he took away all of the Chaldeans, together with the entire army of the Elamites, his allies, and sat on his royal throne. Ashur-iddina II Ashur-iddina II, my first-born son who had engendered me, sat on his royal throne and entrusted to him the wide land Akkad. He confined the entire population of the Ahlamû and Sutians, the people of the city Hirimu, with weapons and he did not spare their shepherds.

I conquered the land of the Yasubigallians, a dangerous enemy who had taken the land Ellipi, and I destroyed its settlements. Further, Lulî, the king of Sidon, fought with one another against the land Yadnana, which is in the sea, and he fled alone. In that land, with the terrifying weapon of the god Ashur, my lord, I put to the sword Tu-Ba'lu, in his royal throne,

He settled him there and imposed upon him payment in recognition of my overlordship. He destroyed his extensive district, the district of the land Judah, the smashed land of Hazaqiau, his king, and he made it disappear. The people of Tumurrum, who live in the rugged mountain, he felled with the sword. The city Ukku, together with all of its settlements, like a swarm of ants he captured. At that time, people

The enemies of my hands I made a tablet and they brought it. The bricks of the palace in the citadel of Nineveh, which 3 hundred and 125 cubits long and 155 cubits wide, I fashioned and its site I had built for their lordly dwelling. I had the kings who came before me, my ancestors, build for their lordly dwelling, but they did not finish their work. The sheep, the shards of a lamassu-stone, the shards of a pilû-stone,

in the city Tastiate they seized, to the service of their gates they seized. To moor boats in the forest of large trees they sank. In all their lands in the month Ayyaru II, the day of the year, on high boats they brought them to this side of the river. At the crossing of the river they brought boats, they sank them, they made their people dwell there, they made their boats shine, they brought their boats with great strength and great skill, and

The Tebilti canal, a well, which from distant days had been in the palace, and which at its flood had swollen its foundations, I enlarged that small palace in its entirety. I re-established the course of the Tebilti canal and made its water flow into its meadowland. I raised its bank above its a-surrakku-wall. I hung reeds above it as a canopy.

I surrounded it with large limestone slabs. I deposited 3 hundred and forty? cubits long and 2 hundred and ninety-ninda cubits wide field from the sea and I enlarged it. I made it larger than before. I added it to the former dimensions of the palace and raised it to a height of 1 hundred and thirty-three? cubits high. The earlier days, during the flood of the world

He made its foundations unalterable, large limestone blocks, he surrounded its base, he strengthened its base, for 700? years he died, and 440? years he died in large limestone blocks, the foundation of the palace, he returned, and its site he built. The palace of breccia, alum, elephant ivory, ebony, a bed, a meskannu-wood, cedar, cypress, juniper, and elammaku-wood, for my lordly residence, I built, and the house of the Appatu

The terrace of the palace of the land Hatti, opposite the settlements, I had built. Cedar beams and cypress, whose scent is sweet, the creation of the land Hamanum and the land Sirara, holy mountains, I clad over them. ...

He poured out a copper sluice and thereby reduced its weight. He poured out a scepter of cypress and alammittu-wood and a meshre-wood.

12 lions, satraps, together with 12 magnificent bull colossi, whose features are perfect, 22 sphinxes, whose features are perfect,

And a sling of pure sling-stone, a sling-stone,

I surrounded their the palace walls with large copper columns, as well as large cedar columns, the product of Mount Amanus, and I fastened bands of copper on large columns and I surrounded them with a stele, and I surrounded their gates with a scepter. I surrounded their ... with a scepter of alabaster, as well as ..., a scepter of zahalû-stone.

I made their awe-inspiring radiance shine forth like the sun. In order that the days of the future water for drinking, the mighty, the bronze guhashatu-bowls, and the bronze harharu-bowls, I had made and like the cult centers of cypress and alamû-wood, I set up in the wells.

Palace of Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, king of the four quarters of the world, favorite of the great gods, wise prince, circumspect ruler, shepherd of people, who is able to shepherd the wide people, I, Belet-ili, lady of creation, faithfully looked at me in the agarinnu-house, my residence, and captured it.

the creation and Ninshiku gave me, his wrath was awe-inspiring, the sage Adapa, your friend, the sage Ashur, father of the gods, all of the black-headed people, he made my heart rejoice. To shepherd the land and the people, he gave me a just scepter, he who widens the land, a merciless weapon to defeat the enemies he made bow down. At that time, the people of the enemies, the ones who hold my hands,

The bricks of the palace in the citadel of Nineveh, which is 3 hundred and 115 cubits long and 115 cubits wide, were fashioned and its site was a strewn-out plot, which the kings who preceded me, my ancestors, had had built for their lordly dwelling, but whose construction they had carried out inexpertly: sheep ... of a protective deity of white limestone in the city Tastiate they plundered, to the service of their gates

to build boats in the forest of large trees they seized. In all their lands in the month Ayyaru II, the day of the year, they brought them to this side of the sea with their exalted boats. At the opening of the port, they sank boats. They sank their boats and made them tremble. They brought boats with great strength and skill to me and

The Tebilti canal, a well, which from distant days had flowed in front of the palace and which at its flood was swollen, I tore out its foundation. That small palace in its entirety I razed. The Tebilti canal, its course, I made new. I re-established its access way. Inside its a-surrakku-vessels, I hung reeds above the bitumen.

I surrounded it with large limestone slabs. I piled up 554? cubits long and 219 cubits wide from the sea and I made it larger than before. I added it to the former dimensions of the palace and raised it to a height of 1300? cubits high. For the distant future, during the flood, its foundations would not be firm.

I surrounded its base with large limestone slabs and strengthened its base. For 914 large aslum stones I erected, and 440 large aslum stones I erected on the top of the design of the palace and thereby I enlarged its site. The palace of breccia, agate, elephant ivory, ebony, boxwood, mesmannu-wood, cedar, cypress, juniper, and elammaku-wood for the residence.

I built a tower, a replica of the palace of the land Hatti, opposite the towers. I roofed it with beams of cedar and cypress, whose scent is sweet, the product of Mount Amanus and Mount Sirara, the holy mountains. I fastened bands of silver on doors of cedar, cypress, juniper, a scepter, and copper and installed them in their gates. In the gateways that are inside the towers, I opened the openings. I had lamassu-plant, a date palm-plant, and a thorny tree,

who go to the ilu-house, their steadfastness, their steadfastness, their supplication, their supplication, their supplication, as many as there were, at their gates I sat and made them dwell on their eternal dais. I made the door bolts of the treasuries that are in their gates shine brightly. I filled them with the karru-vessels, silver, and copper. I surrounded their walls with baked bricks of zuzu-stone and lapis lazuli and I surrounded their door bolts with the supplications and all of their work. Because my work is completed, and my hands are clean, at that time

Ashur and Ishtar, the ones who love my priesthood, the one who named me by the date palm tree, which since distant days had grown tall and had become very large, in the Sierra mountain range, in a place of abundance, they made their splendor shine forth. The date palm stone, which in the time of the kings, my ancestors, to the karru-of-sight and the stele of the land Ammanana had smashed, and the breccia, as much as there was of burzigallu-vessels, which had never seen before,

In the city Kapridargila which is on the border of the city Til-Barsip I presented it. In the city Nineveh, in the territory of the city Balataya, which by divine will and with white limestone for the 'response' was discovered, and bull colossi and the statue of the stele of geshnugal-stone ..., with one stone he created ..., the dimensions ..., in the terrace of his own ..., the stele of apzazu-disease, geshnugal-stone, whose appearance is bright, like the day of the naparde-temple,

... ... ... I fashioned ...-stones, ...-stones, and ...-stones, and I piled them up in piles and I had them all gathered together for the work on my palace. In Nineveh, I had large bull colossi and sphinxes of white limestone fashioned by the command of Ninkura in the territory of the city Balataya and I completed their features. From ancient times, the kings, my ancestors, had a statue of copper, a replica of their features, for the shuzu

As for me, Sîn-ahhe-riba, foremost of all rulers, ... the work, all of the large beams of copper, lion colossi, ... of the mountain range, which no king before me had ever seen, ..., the ... of the cultic rites, which he had made great and the princely majesty,

12 lions, satraps, as far as 12 ..., great lamassu-demons, whose ... are ..., 22 satraps,

As a gift from god, I fashioned a scepter of truth and wrote it on it. I made their creations as perfect as a casting of 1/2 shekel of silver. I made bull colossi of copper, whose two zaha-x-souls are lit. "with each other" colossi of alabaster, together with bull colossi and sphinxes of white limestone, the entrances of my palaces,

I ... high copper columns, as well as large cedar columns, ... ... I ... a bronze meser and ... the ... of the piriggallû-crucible and ... the door bolts of their gates. I ... ...-zazate, alabaster, as far as ...-zazate, ...-silver, urudû-stones of zahalû-stone litbu-stone, and ...-zazate ... ... ... of ...-tassu-silver

I surrounded their the palace rooms' lower courses with slabs of ...-alabaster and large limestone slabs and made them an object of wonder. I made ...s of ..., ..., ..., ..., ..., bronze guhashiru-vessels, and bronze harharu-vessels, and I named them kimu-...-mahhu-vessels.

and Alammittu, the water from the wells, I poured out. I surrounded those palaces. The totality of the palace for the totality of the people I raised up. The palace which no one had ever built a palace I conquered. The orchard of the Hamanum, which ... all the juniper ..., the trees that are the mainstay of the mountains and Chaldea, inside it, I surrounded. For the cultic rites, I ... from the pa'a... to

The plain of Nineveh ... I fashioned with iron a kiln and made it shine like daylight. The Harru canal, one and a half stretches ... inside the Husur River, the eternal sea, I surrounded. Inside those canals I ... ... The canals of the orchards I irrigated and the shadu-trees I drained. I surrounded it with eagles, pigeons, and reeds.

By divine will, in the garden grapes and all kinds of fruit trees, cedar, and aromatic trees they saw a great abundance of trees. Cypress trees, meskannu-trees, all kinds of trees they planted and they smote him. The flocks of the flocks were very many. The bird of heaven, the heron, the pigeon, the eagle, he smote, and the pigeon of reeds he smote. The abundance of meskannu-trees, cypress trees, the fruit of the reeds,

I cut down the marshes in the swamps and for the work on the restitution of my lordly palaces. After I had finished the work on my palace, I invited therein Ashur, the great lord, and the gods and goddesses living in Assyria, and I offered sumptuous offerings and presented them. My kadrû-offerings, oil, serdû-wood and hibi-wood I poured out. For the living, in the tavern of the palace, the inhabitants of my land I made them dwell. .

By the command of Assur, father of the gods, and Ishtar, queen, may a good shepherd ... endure forever in that palace. May he not be negligent.

I fashioned magnificent breccia cones and piled them up on their top. I piled them up and for the work on my palace I had them carried off.

Palace of Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, king of the four quarters of the world, favorite of the great gods, the god Ashur, father of the gods, steadfastly looked upon me among all rulers and made my weapons greater than those of all who sit on royal daises. I fell into the steppe and took away Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, king of Karduniash Babylonia, and he took away his dominion over all Chaldeans, together with the rest of the army of the land Elam, his helpers.

With the weapons of Ashur-nadin-shumi, my first-born son, he sat on his royal throne and ruled the wide land Akkad. I abandoned him. I felled with the sword the entire population of Ahlamû and Sutians, the people of the city Hirimmu, and I did not hesitate. I conquered them. The Yasubigallians, the enemy who had seized the land Ellipi, I destroyed and demolished their settlements. Further, Lulî, the king of Sidon, I fought with them and brought about the defeat of the land Yadnana.

Those who had fled inside the sea were seized and seized the city. In that land, with the great strength of the weapon of the god Ashur, my lord, I placed him. Tu-Ba'lu sat on his royal throne and he imposed upon him tribute and payment in recognition of my overlordship. He smashed his head, he smashed the wide district of the land Judah, the boundary territory of Hazaqiau, his king, and he imposed upon me tribute. The people of Tumurru who live in the rugged mountain Nipur with the weapons of the god Ashur, my lord, he smashed with the sword.

The city Ukku and all of its settlements he seized like a swarm of ants. The people of the land Hilakku, who live in the high mountains, he slew. I conquered the city Til-Garimme, which is on the border of the land Tabal, and I brought them here. The cult centers of Chaldea, which had become hostile to me, he destroyed, and the gods of all of their land in their midst he slew. The sea they slew, and in the cities Nagitu he slew. Then, on boats of the land Hatti, he crossed over the Nagitu.

The cities Nagiatu-di'bina, Hilmu, Pillatu, and Hupapanu, districts on the opposite bank of the Marratu Canal, I conquered and the people of Chaldea together with their gods and the people of the king of the land Elam I plundered and without number I sinned.

AI Translation

Palace of Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, king of the four quarters of the world, favorite of the great gods, pious warrior, valiant man, foremost of all rulers, the bridle that controls the insubmissive, the one who overwhelms enemies, the god Ashur, the great mountain, the unrivalled kingship, granted to me and made my weapons greater than those of all who sit on royal daises.

From the Upper Sea of the Well-being of Shamash to the Upper Sea of the Rising Sun, all rulers of the four quarters of the world, they made bow down at my feet. In the first stage of my campaign, which Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, king of Karduniash Babylonia, together with the troops of Elam, his allies, in the plain of Kish I established, I brought about his defeat. He abandoned his life and fled to save his life.

He escaped, and the chariots, wagons, horses, and mules that he had abandoned he captured. My hands entered his palace, which is in Babylon, and I opened his treasury. I carried off gold, silver, gold utensils, silver, precious stones, property, and property of his palace. I surrounded his fortified cities, the walled cities of Chaldea, together with the smaller settlements in their environs.

On my return march, I conquered the Arameans on the banks of the Tigris and Euphrates and carried off their booty. In the course of my campaign, the qipu of the city Hararatu received a substantial payment from me. The people of the city Hirimmu, a dangerous enemy, fought with the sword and fled. I did not spare that city.

I took one ox, 10 sheep, 10? homers of wine, 20? homers of dates as his first-fruits offerings to the gods of Assyria. On my second campaign to the land of the Kassites and the land of the Yasubigallians I marched. In the high mountains, a rugged field, I rode on horseback. The rugged terrain I covered with my feet very much. The cities Bit-Kilamzah, Hardishpu, Bit-Kubatti, their fortified walled cities,

I captured and plundered. Their booty and their smaller settlements, which were without number, I destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire. I returned the people of that city Bit-Kilamzah to their former places. I settled therein the people of the lands that I had conquered. I placed them under the authority of the governor of the city Arbela. I returned them to my country and to the land Ellipi

I took the road to the other side of the Euphrates. Ispabara, their king, abandoned his fortified cities and fled to the sea. I captured Marubishtu and Akkuddu, cities of his royal house, together with the cities in their environs, and carried off their booty. I destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire the cities Shishirtu and Kummahlu, fortified cities, together with smaller settlements.

which is in their environs I conquered. The district of the land Ebarrû in its entirety I ripped out from his land and added to the territory of Assyria. I took the city Elenz as a fortress for that district and iii 5' changed its name and called it Kar-Sîn-ahhe-eriba. I settled therein the people of the lands that I had conquered. From the hands of the governor of the city Harhar

On my return march, the distant Medes, whose kings, my ancestors, had never heard the mention of their land, I received their tribute and made them bow down to my yoke. On my third campaign, I marched to the land Hatti. Fear of my brilliance overwhelmed Lulî, the king of Sidon, and he fled from the city Tyre to the land Yadnana.

he who was in the middle of the sea escaped and took to his land. Tu-Ba'lu sat on his royal throne and imposed upon him tribute and payment in recognition of my overlordship. The kings of the land Amurru brought their substantial tribute in the plain of the city Ushû before me and Shidqâ, the king of the city Ashkelon who had not bowed down to my yoke, the gods of his father's house, together with his family,

I returned and brought him to Assyria. I installed Lugal-lu-dari, son of Rukibtu, their former king, over the people of the city Ashkelon and imposed upon him tribute and payment in recognition of my overlordship. In the course of my campaign, his cities, which had not submitted to me, I plundered and plundered. The governors and the people of the city Ekron of Padî, their king,

The lord of the treaty of Assyria, a shackle of iron he erected and to Hazaqiau of the land Judah he gave him. He performed anzilu-festival and they became frightened. The kings of Egypt, the archers, chariots, and horses of the king of the land Meluhha, without number, gathered together in the plain of the city Eltekeh and I brought about their defeat. The lord of chariots

and the sons of the king of Egypt, together with the lord of the chariots of the king of Meluhha, their lives I captured. I approached the city Ekron and I killed with the sword the governors who had committed crimes. I counted the citizens of the city who had committed this crime as booty. The rest of them, whose crimes they did not commit, I imposed upon them. I spoke to Padî, their king, as follows:

I brought out of the city Ursallim and seated them on the throne over them, and imposed upon them payment in recognition of my overlordship. He who had not submitted to my yoke, iii 20' 46 of his cities, fortresses, and cities in their environs, which were without number, I surrounded and conquered. I counted them as booty. I surrounded it like a bird nest inside

As for the city Ursalum, his royal city, I razed, destroyed, and burned with fire his cities, which I had plundered, from his land and gave to the kings of the cities Ashdod, Isqalluna, Amqarrana, and Haziti, and he razed, destroyed, and his land he surrounded. I added to the previous tribute and payment of their annual offerings and imposed upon them tribute. That man, Hazaqiû, was enraged with radiance,

he seized him and the urbi and his good men who were in Ursallim, his royal city, he brought in and together with 30 talents of gold and 800 talents of silver, whatever was his own, the treasure of his palace, and his daughters, the people of his palace, the singers, the female singers, to Nineveh sent, and for the payment of tribute he sent his troops.

On my fourth campaign I marched to the land E-Yakin. In the course of my campaign, I defeated Shuzubu Mushezib-Marduk, a Chaldean who lives in the marshes, in the city Bittutu. He fought with me. He abandoned my weapons, fled alone, and did not see his place. I turned around and took the road to the land E-Yakin.

Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, who on the first campaign of my previous campaign had brought about his defeat, fear of my mighty weapons he turned back and he fled to the city Nagitu, which is in the middle of the sea. His brothers, the seed of his father's house, who had abandoned the shore of the sea, together with the people of his land, I carried off from the land Eiakin, in the swamps and marshes, and his cities

On my return march, Ashur-nadin-shumi, my son, sat on his lordly throne and he made his face resplendent. On my fifth campaign, the people of Tumurrum, whose dwellings are situated like the nests of eagles on the peak of Mount Nipur, a rugged mountain, and who were not submissive to my yoke, on foot Mount Nipur,

I placed it with my merciless troops and like a raging bull I took their faces in the mountains. I sat on a throne of rugged mountains, where the throne was smashed, on my feet. Like a raging bull, where the wolves grew, I sat on a mountain ledge. I sat on a mountain ledge and drank water from a leather bag.

I slew my foes to my feet. I marched against them on the peaks of the mountains and defeated them. I conquered their cities and carried off their booty. I burned, demolished, and burned with fire their cities. I turned around lit. "I turned the front of my yoke" and took the road against Maniye, the king of the city Ukku, a dangerous road. I took the direct road against the mountains.

No king before me had come inside them. He put the mighty mountains Anara and Uppa on the feet of the enemy and I, on a sledge, fought with my fierce battle troops. He heard about the mighty arrows of the mountains and heard about the advance of Maniye on my expedition. He abandoned the city Ukku, his royal city, and fled to the desert.

In his palace I carried off every kind of possession and property without number, his substantial treasure. I destroyed, devastated, and burned his cities. I slew like a sacrificial lamb. On my sixth campaign to the cities Nagitu and Nagiti'bina, cities of the king of the land Elam, whose dwellings are situated opposite the Marratu River, the people of the land Bit-Yakin fled from the mighty weapons of the god Ashur and were frightened.

their settlements crossed the Marratu canal and the border of each other ... ... the love of Ashur, my lord, encouraged me and I told them to march to the land Nagitu. The men of the land Hatti, who were seized by my bow, I settled in Nineveh and they hired exalted boats for the work of their land. The sailors of the city Tyre

The Sidonians and the Yamaneans, the subjects of my hands, I slew them. The next, they slew them in the Tigris with them to the quays to Uppia and they brought them out from Uppia. Further, they brought them out from the quays to Sippar and they brought them out from the Arahtu canal. They brought them out to the canal of the Dakkuru of Chaldea.

... I marched ... ... my nobles, who did not know me, I ..., my mighty warriors, and my warriors, my battle troops, who did not ..., in boats I made them enter, and I gave them the shinditu-offerings. I brought barley and straw for the turnishû-offerings with them. My warriors in boats they sailed. The Euphrates I

I was seized in their midst, and I made them enter Kasallitu. The lions in my arms, from the source of the Euphrates to the seacoast, a journey of two stretches of land, all of it, ..., which in my land ... the word ... to my heart I did not abandon. In that place I grew up, a mighty flood erupted, and I sat down in it.

I slew my zarutu-wood and poured out my entire karutu-wood into the mighty water.

5 days and nights like a ..., the whole of my people, the boats of my warriors

to the mouth of the river he reached. Where the Euphrates its water he brought in, in the midst of the wide sea I stood. For their awe-inspiring radiance I stood on the bank of the Marratu and for Ea, the king of the apsû, I made her. I gave sacrifices of gold with a boat of gold, fish, and gold, into the sea and I quickly sent my boats to the land Nagitu. In the great sea, which to the east to the west

horses and mules, a man without number, a great man, he sent, and the people of Chaldea who dwell in the cities Nagitu and Nagiti'bina, the people of the lands Hilmu, Pillatu, and Hupapanu, my warriors, saw, and the archers, chariots, horses, mules, and troops without number, they slew together in battle. In the Ulaya canal, the quay of its territory, good, the slits,

their weapons they slew. My warriors to the border of the Medes they captured. Their envoys from the boats to the sea of the sea they captured and they placed their trust. The cities Nagitu, Nagitu-di'bina, Hilmu, Pillatu, and Hupapanu, cities of the king of the land Elam they captured. Their strongholds, the Chaldeans, the gods of all the land E-Yakin

They carried off mules and donkeys, and in their boats they brought them out. They brought them to Kasallimetu, before me. Those cities they destroyed, demolished, and burned with fire. They poured out a torrent of rain upon the wide land Elam. They slew the captives in the booty of the mountains.

I sank a harp tree of 30,500 arrows and 20,200 ... of aribû-wood among them and thereby secured it over the base of the harp tree.

I added the remainder of the substantial booty of my enemies to my entire camp, my governors, and the people of my cult centers. I sat down like sheep. At that time, the palace in the middle of the city of Nineveh, which was 3 hundred and 900 cubits in height,

115 cubits, the width of the throne is a bit high, and its dwelling place is a bit high, which the kings

Before my fathers, for the sake of their lordship, I had it built and did not alter its construction. Bull colossi of white limestone in the city Tastiate he plundered, and to be their gatekeepers, to be their boats, they moored them in the forest of large trees. In all of their lands, in the month Ayyaru II, the day of the equinox, before that time, with magnificent boats they dispatched to me. At the beginning of the year,

The boats they brought in and their people they made joyful. With might and strength they brought in and they made them take up their seats. The Tebilti canal, the fresh water that from distant days had flowed from the palace and which in its flood had sunk, its foundations and the small palace in its entirety I enlarged. The canal of the Tebilti canal, its course, from the center of the city

I opened and in the plain behind the city I made it pass by. Its waterway is 1/2 ikû.

I bound four large limestone blocks with bitumen and imposed upon them reeds, ape and kupe stones.

554 cubits, the length 219? cubits, the width 1 cubit, from the Husur canal and

I surrounded the plain of the city like a mountain. I added the terrace to the former terrace and, in its entirety, I raised its superstructure a distance of 100+ nindanu by a large aslu-tree, and 4400? aslu-tree by a large aslu-tree, the top of the design of the palace, and I enlarged its site. I made palaces of gold, silver, bronze, anzagul-stone, breccia,

I had cedar, cypress, ebony, a linen garment, a mesmannu-wood, cedar, cypress, juniper, elamaku-juniper, and sand dunes as my royal residence built and a storehouse, a replica of the palace of the land Hatti, built opposite its gates. I roofed them with beams of cedar and cypress, whose fragrance is sweet, the product of the land Hamath and the land Sirara, the holy mountains. I fastened bands of silver and copper on doors of cedar, cypress, juniper, juniper, a tuft of a finger and copper.

I positioned and thereby reinforced their foundations. At the gates that are inside the palatial halls, I opened the openings and surrounded them with lamassus, elephant ivory whose limbs are firmly fixed, a tiara of kuzbu-plant, a tiara of lupin, as many as there were, and I made them a treasury for the pleasure of all. I made the shurû-garments which are inside the gates shine like a halo. I made the door bolts of the door bolts shine like daylight.

I adorned them with silver and copper. With baked bricks of lapis lazuli and lapis lazuli, I adorned their faces and all their copings. Because the work of my palace I completed and the ... of my hands I slighted, at that time the god Ashur and the goddess Ishtar, who love my priesthood, the one who called me by name, had cedar beams that from distant days had grown tall and great in the Sierra mountains in a grove I made them stand.

As for the gishnugal stone, which in the time of the kings, my ancestors, in the midst of the mighty battle array in the wide plain of the land Ammanana had smashed, its face and the breccia, as much as is needed for the burzigallu-vessel, which had never been seen before, in the city Kapridargilâ, which is on the border of the city Til-Barsip, he had it brought to me. In Nineveh, in the territory of the city Balataya, according to the command of the god, he had smashed a pilû-vessel for a mule.

he saw and bull colossi and statues of alabaster, whose features are perfected by one stone, whose proportions are perfect, on their throne-dais, their shattu-disease, shattu-disease, sphinxes of alabaster, whose features are splendid, like a day of brightening, their bodies he adorned with a scepter of breccia.

I fashioned magnificent statues of myself and erected them on their pedestals. I completed them and for the work on my palace I had them carried off. In Nineveh, I had large bull colossi and sphinxes of white limestone fashioned by the command of Ninkura in the territory of the city Balataya and I completed their features. From ancient times, the kings, my ancestors, had bronze statues made.

In the Ekur temples a replica of their cultic rites he built and in their construction he made them flourish. All the craftsmen, without number, without number, without number, to do work on their behalf oil, oil, oil, and wool he poured out. In their mountains, I, Sennacherib, foremost of all rulers, the one who performs the work, the large columns of copper,

A lion with a broad head, which no king of the past who came before me had ever seen, with a scepter that had been set up for me and the prince Ninshiku, with my own counsel, to do this work he was very strong. I went and, by my own instructions and my own personal experience, with a copper scepter he made it and he made its features as strong as those of a lion's head.

and alammittu-wood, 12 lions, fierce, together with 12 magnificent bull colossi, whose features are perfect, 22 sphinxes, whose limbs are swollen and whose limbs are swollen, whose limbs are swollen, I fashioned. By divine will, I fashioned a scepter of truth and I sent it inside it. By divine will, 1/2 shekel of silver,

I made bull colossi of copper, whose two parts are zahalû-shaped, bull colossi of alabaster, together with bull colossi of apes, and white limestone, the entrances of my palaces, hold their doors. I fashioned magnificent copper columns, together with large cedar columns, the product of Mount Amanus, and copper columns.

I surrounded them with a ziggurat and surrounded them with a ziggurat, a gate, and a cloak. I erected abzazatu-plant, alabaster, as well as abzazatu-plant, pirigû-stone, urudû-stone, whose scent is sweet, and abzazatu-plant, pirigû-stone, guanna-stone, whose appearance is bright: cedar, ebony, cedar, dapranu-juniper,

and a sundae of juniper and a ... I erected over them, and I placed them in the sanctuaries of my lordly residence. I surrounded their gishnu-vessels with slabs of breccia, alabaster, and large limestone slabs. I surrounded their borders with them and made them an object of wonder. Because of this, every day, water for drinking

I had a durable wall made of bronze and bronze harharû-metal, and I set up like a mountain groves with cypress and alamtu-plants on the outside of the wells. I made those palaces shine like daylight. The entire palace for the totality of the people I raised its superstructure. The palace which no other had built I named it. The orchard

I surrounded and conquered the district of the land Hamanum, which all kinds of aromatic plants, fruit trees, trees that are the mainstay of the mountains and Chaldea, in its environs, and I poured out into the water for irrigation purposes. I made a stele from the border of the city Kisiri to the plain of Nineveh, my land, and I made it flow through iron fetters and made the Harru canal flow.

1 1/2 hectares of land from the Husur River, the eternal sea, I made its area greater. In those environs I made them dwell in peace.

To make the water of the orchards flow, I surrounded it with a marsh. I threw in it pigeons, eagles, and reeds. By divine will, in the orchards, grapes, all kinds of fruit, cedar, and aromatics, they greatly grew.

The meskannu, all of the trees, grew tall and he made it grow tall. The apparatu-bird, the great one, he smote. The bird of heaven, the heron, he smote, and the pigeon, the reeds, his scepter, he smote. The reeds, the meskannu-wood, and cypress trees, grown in the marshes, which are in the marshes, he cut down and I did it for the work of the cult centers of my lordly palace. After the work of my palace he finished, the god Ashur, the great lord, the gods and goddesses

I invited the people of Assyria into it, offered sumptuous offerings, and presented them. My offerings, oil, semolina, and aromatics I poured out. For a joyful celebration, at the opening of the palace of the people of my land I made them drink their libations of sweet wine. By the command of my great divinity,

May Ashur, father of the gods, and Ishtar, queen, bestow a good protective spirit and a good protective spirit forever in that palace. May they not abandon her!

the enemy, who robbed their settlements, the pious ruler, who is above the kings who sit on royal daises, the one who has entrusted his sovereignty, the support of his land, the one who is able to fight and battle, and the slayer of his troops, I. At that time, the Ehursaggalkurkurra, which is inside Esharra, the seat of the god Ashur, the great lord, my lord, whose appearances from distant days had been obscured and whose gate was open to the south, with the broad eyes of the god Ea, I imposed upon you.

At the first glance which Ashur had given me, I went by my own advice and the gate of Ehursaggalkurkurra to the left of Shamash, opposite the east wind, its opening was open, my heart prompted me. The word of Shamash and Adad I heard, and the truth he gave me, and the gate of Shu'a... to the left of Shamash, opposite the east wind, Shamash and Adad said to him, its opening was open. At that time I surrounded the gate and

To the face of Ashur, my lord, opposite the east wind I opened a new gate and named it "The King's Gate." I built a new house and expanded its gate. In the gate of that house four bulls, sons of Shamash, with reddish bronze, above their hands, they slew, they hung, they hung, they hung, above their feet, on two bronze dais of fish, bronze of the shurmash, bronze a sling,

the right and left of the gate of the lion and the girtabulu-ullu, all the shigaru-vessels, those gates, the gates of the road that Izakar named them and its courtyard I built anew and its courtyard was a ziggurat. The Igigi name is its gate that is on the east side on the river bank. Izakar his entrance gate to the courtyard of the Igigi name Izakur. The gate which to the south is the gate of the Igigi name is its gate.

I destroyed the gate of ... of the land, its name I named. I destroyed the gate which is to the north, the gate of the Amurru, its name I named. I destroyed the gate of its entrances to the courtyard, the gate of destinies, its name I named. I destroyed the gate of the cella, the house of the shuru, its walls, as far as the courtyard, the houses, and gates from its foundations to its crenellations with the craft of Kulla and I raised its top like a mountain with my own strength that the gates

And the courtyard ... their names I named. I hereby confirm the foundations. You, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, the one who loves truth, the one who fashioned the statue of his god, and the one who fashioned his holy temple for Ashur, command that his offspring, his sons, and his grandsons, be brought up with black-headed people forever. No future prince of Ashur shall be more great than you for shepherding the land and people.

In his reign, that house became dilapidated. May he restore its weakened portions. May he see my inscribed object, anoint it with oil, offer a sacrifice, place it on his bed, and then may the god Ashur hear his prayers. May he remove my inscribed object, the slander of my words. May the god Ashur, king of the gods, and the great gods of heaven and netherworld curse him with a harsh curse, and overthrow his kingship. May his life be long and his name, his seed, his offspring and his offspring disappear from the mouth of the people.

Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, king of the four quarters of the world, who reaches the wide people, who fashioned images of the god Ashur and the great gods, who completed the cult centers of the Esharra, who in the midst of the heavens by the command of the gods Shamash and Adad made their sanctuaries splendid, who restored the protective spirit of the Esharra, who reveres the gods of heaven and the gods of Assyria, who reorganized the great gods in their midst,

Who makes their cultic rites perfect, who builds Assyria, who completes its cult centers, who conquers the enemy land, who destroys their settlements, who re-opens canals, who makes canals flow, who makes abundance and abundance abundant in the wide district of Assyria, who establishes fresh water in the midst of Assyria, who since distant days has not seen piracy and piracy in Assyria, who no one knows, who no one knows, who did not do anything before, who completes the work of the god Kulla,

From the beginning of the work to the tomb, the rites of death were performed with mountain stone, which no king of the past who came before me had done in Assyria, the wise ruler who is superior to the kings who sit on royal daises, the one who knows his lordship, the support of his land, the one who is attentive to battle and war, the one who overwhelms his troops, I, at that time, from the statue of Ashur, the great lord, my lord, and the statue of the great gods, I made and their dwelling peaceful.

Barsagsag, the first month of the father of Enlil, the month of the nanmurtu-star of the Plow, the festival of the king of the gods, Ashur, which since distant days, in the midst of the earth and the plain, the Akitu temple, he had built, in the city he built. The king of the gods, Ashur, with the work on this, to rebuild the Akitu temple he brought, and the word of Shamash and Adad I heard, and the true gods answered me, and

In a favorable month, on a propitious day, by means of the craft of the craftsmen, the wisdom of the kakkullu-priests, I laid its foundations with limestone, stone from the mountains, and raised its top. I completed it from its foundations to its crenellations with stone from the mountains and made it high. I raised two terraces up to its top, and planted a fruit orchard with fruit and a grove of juniper, and deposited it in its top. From Babylon I excavated.
