surface a 1There was a young man, a son of Nippur, destitute and poor;
surface a 2Gimil-Ninurta was his name, a miserable man,
surface a 3in his city Nippur exhausted he was living, and
surface a 4he had no silver fitting of his people,
surface a 5gold he had none fitting of the citizens;
surface a 6his storehouse thirsted for pure Nisaba (grain),
surface a 7for craving of bread his gut burned,
surface a 8for craving of meat and fine beer, miserable was his countenance.
surface a 9Daily with nothing to eat hungry he was lying;
surface a 10and he wore a garment without change,
surface a 11with his miserable heart he took counsel:
surface a 12“Let me strip off my garment without change, and
surface a 13in the square of my city Nippur a ram buy!”
surface a 14He stripped off his garment without change and
surface a 15in the square of his city Nippur a three year old nanny goat bought.
surface a 16with his miserable heart that one took counsel:
surface a 17“Perhaps in my courtyard I will slaughter the nanny goat,
surface a 18but there would be no banquet: where is the beer?
surface a 19They will hear of it, the neighbors of my gate, and will be enraged;
surface a 20kith and kin will be angry with me.
surface a 21Let me take and to the house of the mayor bring the nanny,
surface a 22a good and fair thing let me make delicious for his stomach!”
surface a 23Gimil-Ninurta grasped the nape of the nanny,
surface a 24to the gate of the mayor of Nippur that one approached,
surface a 25to Tukulti-Enlil, the keeper of the gate, words he speaks:
surface a 26“Speak!, that I may enter and see the mayor.”
surface a 27The doorman to his lord words speaks:
surface a 28“My lord, a son of Nippur waits at your gate,
surface a 29and as a greeting gift he brought you a nanny.”
surface a 30The mayor is angry with the doorman Tukulti-Enlil:
surface a 31“Why is a son of Nippur waiting at the gate?”
surface a 32the doorman to ...
surface a 33Gimil-Ninurta in the fullness of his heart entered before the mayor.
surface a 34Gimil-Ninurta before the mayor entering,
surface a 35in his left hand grasped the nape of his nanny,
surface a 36he raised his right hand greeting the mayor:
surface a 37“May Enlil and Nippur bless the mayor!
surface a 38May Adad and Nusku cause to flourish his seed!”
surface a 39The mayor to the son of Nippur the words speaks:
surface a 40“What is your loss, that a gift you are carrying?”
surface a 41Gimil-Ninurta to the mayor of Nippur his order relates:
surface a 42“Daily with nothing to eat hungry I was lying;
surface a 43so I tore off my garment of no change and
surface a 44in the square of my city Nippur I bought a three year old goat,
surface a 45to my miserable heart I thus spoke:
surface a 46“Perhaps in my courtyard I will slaughter the nanny,
surface a 47but there would be no banquet: where is the beer?
surface a 48they will hear of it, the neighbors of my gate, and will be enraged;
surface a 49kith and kin will be angry with me;
surface a 50let me take and to the mayor bring the nanny!”
surface a 51Thus I spoke to my heart.
surface a 52... the butcher was crying out at night(?);
surface a 53... may they be captured(?);
surface a 54... may it be overflowing, the table,
surface a 56... he cried, and
surface a 58“Give to the son of Nippur bone and gristle,
surface a 59let him drink from your flask third-rate beer, and
surface a 60send him away and let him go out from the gate!”
surface a 61He gave him, the son of Nippur, bone and sinew,
surface a 62let him drink from his flask third-rate beer, and
surface a 63sent him away and let him leave through the gate.
surface a 64Gimil-Ninurta, through the gate leaving,
surface a 65to the doorman, the gatekeeper, the words speaks:
surface a 66“To your lord the blessings of the gods thus say to him!
surface a 67Because of the one burden you imposed on me,
surface a 68for the one, three I will repay you.”
surface a 69The mayor heard this and all day long laughed.
surface a 70Gimil-Ninurta to the palace of the king directed his face:
surface a 71“On instruction of the king, prince and governor reach just judgment.”
surface a 72Gimil-Ninurta, before the king entering,
surface a 73bowed down, and kissed the ground before him.
surface a 74He raised his hands, the king of the universe greeting:
surface a 75“Ruler, life of the people, king strengthened by a guardian spirit,
surface a 76one chariot by your command let them give me,
surface a 77that for 1 day, whatever I wish I may achieve!
surface a 78For my day, my repayment shall be one mina of red gold.”
surface a 79He did not ask him, the king, “Your desire is what,
surface a 80that one chariot you would ride all day?”
surface a 81they gave to him a new chariot, fitting for grandees,
surface a 82they girded him with a new sash, fitting for ...,
surface a 83he mounted the new chariot, fitting for grandees,
surface a 84to his city, Duranki, he set his face.
surface a 85Gimil-Ninurta two birds caught,
surface a 86stuck in a box and sealed with his seal;
surface a 87to the gate of the mayor of Nippur that one went.
surface a 88The mayor before him went outside:
surface a 89“Who are you, my lord, that you drove here at dusk?”
surface a 90“The king, your lord, sent me to Duranki:
surface a 91“To Ekur, the house of Enlil, gold take!”
surface a 92The mayor, to offer an extravagant meal, slaughtered a pasillu;
surface a 93ditto (the mayor) before him “O, am I ever tired!” said to him.
surface a 94Gimil-Ninurta at the head of the mayor for the watch of the night (=first watch) sat;
surface a 95the mayor in his weariness was overcome by sleep;
surface a 96Gimil-Ninura in that of the night (=second watch) like a thief got up, and
surface a 97opened the gate of that same box, and the birds flew out to the heavens.
surface a 98The mayor, at the break of dawn, was shocked, ...
surface a 99“Open is the gate of the box, carried off is the gold!”
surface a 100Gimil-Ninurta, in the anguish of his heart, rent his garments.
surface a 101he set upon and the mayor let beg (for mercy),
surface a 102from his head to the soles of his feet
surface a 103his limbs he beat, vexation he imposed upon him.
surface a 104The mayor beneath him in dread was crying out:
surface a 105“My lord, a son of Nippur do not destroy!
surface a 106the blood of a k., a protected one of Enlil, let your hands not beat!”
surface a 107They gave him as his present two minas of red gold;
surface a 108instead of his garment that he rent, a second one he gave him.
surface a 109Gimil Ninurta through the gate exiting
surface a 110to Tukulti-Enlil, the gatekeeper, the words speaks:
surface a 111“To your lord the abundance of the gods, thus speak to him:
surface a 112“For the one load that you imposed upon me,
surface a 113one I have repaid you, two remain.”
surface a 114The mayor heard this, and all day wept.
surface a 115Gimil-Ninurta before the barber entered;
surface a 116he cut off all the hair on the left and ...;
surface a 117an n-vessel with the deposit of fire he filled, ...,
surface a 118to the gate of the mayor of Nippur that one went,
surface a 119to the doorman, the keeper of the gate, the words speaks:
surface a 120“Speak, that I would enter and see your lord.”
surface a 121“Who are you, that you would see him?”
surface a 122“A doctor, native of Isin, an examiner, am I!
surface a 123Where sickness and suffering in the body ...”.
surface a 124Gimil-Ninurta, before the mayor entering,
surface a 125where he (Gimil-Ninurta) his body had thrashed, he (GN) his bruises uncovered for him.
surface a 126The mayor to his eunuchs, “The doctor is able,” said.
surface a 127“My lord, in darkness do my cures make whole,
surface a 128where foot-traffic is removed, too dark for a pathway.”
surface a 129He let him enter ... a chamber, a place of no access,
surface a 130where friend or associate will not have pity on him;
surface a 131the n-vessel he threw into the heart of the fire.
surface a 132He drove into the hard earth five pegs,
surface a 133on hands, feet and head he bound him;
surface a 134from head to the sole of his feet his limbs he beat, vexation he imposed upon him.
surface a 135Gimil-Ninurta, through the gate exiting,
surface a 136to Tukulti-Enlil, the gatekeeper, the words speaks:
surface a 137“To your lord the abundance of the gods, thus speak to him:
surface a 138“For the 1 load that you imposed upon me,
surface a 1392 I have repaid you, 1 remains.”
surface a 140Gimil-Ninurta was troubled, like a dog he lifted up his ears.
surface a 141he looked at the collective black-headed ones, observing all the young men;
surface a 142he caught one man ... of Nippur,
surface a 143gave him as a gift ... a nanny:
surface a 144“Go to the gate of the mayor of Nippur and set up a cry;
surface a 145at your cry let gather all the broad young men!”
surface a 146on the path, the gate of the mayor he was striking: “I am the one of the goat!”
surface a 147Gimil-Ninurta under the bridge crouched, like a dog.
surface a 148The mayor at the cry of the young man came outside,
surface a 149sent out the people of his house, female and male;
surface a 150they flew off in their entirety searching for the man;
surface a 151while they in their entirety ditto (were searching for the man),
surface a 152the mayor went outside alone.
surface a 153Gimil-Ninurta from below the bridge sprang, and seized the mayor.
surface a 154he put upon him, and the mayor caused to beg (for mercy);
surface a 155from his head to the soles of his feet
surface a 156his limbs he beat, vexation he imposed upon him:
surface a 157“Because of the one burden you imposed on me,
surface a 1583 I paid you back.”
surface a 159He left him behind, and went out into the countryside;
surface a 160The mayor, crawling, entered the city.
