| tablet 1 | To Nabu, exalted lord, who dwells in Ezida, |
| tablet 2 | which is in Nineve, his lord: (I) Assurnasirpal, king of Assyria |
| tablet 3 | the one who is longed for and destined by his great divinity, |
| tablet 4 | who, at the issuing of his order and the giving of his solemn decree |
| tablet 5 | (after) defeating (him) in battle, cut off the head of Teumman, |
| tablet 6 | king of Elam. And Ummanigash, Tammaritu, |
| tablet 7 | Pa'e, Ummanaldash, who before Teumman |
| tablet 8 | exercised kingship over Elam, by his great command |
| tablet 9 | he captured them. To my sedan chair, |
| tablet 10 | my royal conveyance, I yoked them. |
| tablet 11 | with his great help in all the lands, |
| tablet 12 | I established order. At that time, the court of the house of Nabu, |
| tablet 13 | my lord, with massive limestone, its construction, |
| tablet 14 | I enlarged. May Nabu look joyfully upon it. |
| tablet 15 | May he find it acceptable in the impression of its wedges. |
| tablet 16 | May the order for a life of long days come forth |
| tablet 17 | from your lips. Walking in Ezida |
| tablet 18 | in your divine presence, may my path grow old. |
