Obverse Column i [0:22] i 1i 1–i 2222Nebuchadnezzar (II), king of Babylon, pious prince, the favorite of the god Marduk, exalted ruler who is the beloved of the god Nabû, the one who deliberates (and) acquires wisdom, the one who constantly seeks out the ways of their divinity (and) reveres their dominion, the indefatigable governor who is mindful of provisioning Esagil and Ezida daily and (who) constantly seeks out good things for Babylon and Borsippa, the wise (and) pious one who provides for Esagil and Ezida, foremost heir of Nabopolassar, king of Babylon, am I.
Obverse Column i [22:29] i 2323–i 2929As soon as he had created me, the lord, the god who created me, the god Marduk, fashioned my form inside (my) mother (so that) when I was born I myself was (fully) formed. I constantly seek out the sanctuaries of the god(s) (and) constantly follow the ways of the god(s).
Obverse Column i [29:39] i 3030–i 3939I repeatedly praised aloud the ingenious accomplishments of the god Marduk, the great lord, the god who created me. I truly proclaim again and again the exalted divine ways of the god Nabû, his true heir, the one who loves my royal majesty. With all of my faithful heart, I love worshiping their divinity (and) revering their dominion.
Obverse Column i [39:50] i 4040–i 5050When the god Marduk, the great lord, elevated me to be king and entrusted me with the lordship of all the people, the god Nabû, overseer of the totality of heaven and earth, allowed my hands to grasp a just scepter for leading people the right way. As for me, I prayed to them (Marduk and Nabû), I constantly sought out their divinity. At the mention of their important name(s), I revere god and goddess (alike).
Obverse Column i [50:74] i 5151–I prayed to the god Marduk, my lord. I besought him with supplications and told him whatever my heart desired, (saying): “Without you, O lord, what would be created? As for the king you love, whose name you call, (and) the one who is pleasing to you, (it is) you (who) makes his name prosper (and) sends him on the right path. I am the prince who is obedient to you, the creation of your (own) hand! You are the one who created me and entrusted me with kingship of all of the people. According to your good will, O lord, which you allow all of them (the people) to be fed regularly, make your exalted dominion be merciful towards me and make reverence for your divinity exist in my heart. Grant me what is pleasing to you and make me have good physical heath.”
Obverse Column ii [1:11] ii 22–ii 1111(As for) him, the foremost one, the honored one, the wisest of the gods, the prince, the god Marduk, he heeded my supplications and accepted my prayers. He made his exalted dominion pleasing to me and had reverence for his divinity placed in my heart. He prompted me to pull his chariot pole; I revered his dominion.
Obverse Column ii [11:29] ii 1212–ii 2929Through his exalted support, I repeatedly travelled (through) far-off lands, remote mountains, from the Upper Sea to the Lower Sea, difficult paths, obstructed roads, where access was blocked (and) approach was not possible, difficult road(s), (and) thirty path(s), and killed insubmissive, bound enemies, put the land in order, and made the people prosper. From the people, I drove away the criminals and villains.
Obverse Column ii [29:42] ii 3030–ii 4242I had silver, gold, precious (and) valuable stone(s), copper, musukkannu-wood, cedar, anything that is valuable, gleaming produce, the yield of the mountains, the wealth of the seas, substantial tribute, lavish gift(s) brought into my city, Babylon, into his (Marduk’s) presence, and I provisioned Esagil, the palace of his lordly majesty.
Obverse Column ii [42:50] ii 4343–ii 5050(As for) Eumuša, the cella of the Enlil of the gods, the god Marduk, I made (it) radiant like the sun. I clad the foundation of the room with reddish gold for its šallaru-plaster (and) lapis lazuli and alabaster as if (they were) gypsum and bitumen.
Obverse Column ii [50:53] ii 5151–ii 5353(As for) Kaḫilišir, the gate of sexual charm(s), and the gate of Ezida, (the one inside) Esagil, I had (it) made (like) awe-inspiring radiance of the sun.
Obverse Column ii [53:73] ii 5454–(As for) Du­ku­ki­nam­tar­ta­re­de of Ub­šuk­kin­na, the Dais of Destinies, in which the god Lugaldimmerankia, the lord, the god, takes up residence during the New Year’s festival, (at) the beginning of the year, (on) the eighth day (and on) the eleventh day, (where) the gods of heaven and earth, pay reverent attention to him, bow down (and) stand in his presence, in which they (the gods) determine (for me) a fate of long days (and) a fate of (the preservation of) my life, (as for) that dais, the dais of kingship, (and) the dais of supreme power of the wisest of the gods, the prince, the god Marduk, whose structure a king of the past had cast with silver, I had it clad with bright gold (and) ornaments (imbued with) brilliance.
Obverse Column iii [7:14] iii 88–iii 1414I decorated the utensils of the temple(s) of Esagil with reddish gold (and) Maumuša with ṣāriru-gold and stone(s) to look like the stars of the heavens. I had the sanctuaries of Babylon (re)built (and) provided for.
Obverse Column iii [14:17] iii 1515–iii 1717I raised the superstructure of Etemenanki with baked bricks (colored with) shining blue glaze.
Obverse Column iii [17:35] iii 1818–iii 3535My heart dearly wanted me to (re)build Esagil (and) I was constantly attentive (towards it). I constantly sought out the best of my cedar that I had carried off from Mount Lebanon, the holy forest, to be the roof of Eumuša, the cella of his supreme power, and (my) mind pondered about (it). I clad the (beams of) hard cedar for the roof of Eumuša with bright gold. I decorated the šīpus below the cedar roof with gold and precious stone(s). I prayed all day to the king of the gods, the lord of lords (Marduk) to (re)build Esagil.
Obverse Column iii [35:47] iii 3636–iii 4747(As for) Borsippa, his beloved city, I properly adorned (it) and had Ezida, the true house, (re)built inside it. I completed its construction with silver, gold, precious stone(s), copper, musukkannu-wood, (and) cedar. I had the cedar roof(s) of the cellas of the god Nabû, clad with gold (and) had the cedar roof of Kaumuša clad with bright silver.
Obverse Column iii [47:61] iii 4848–iii 6161I decorated the wild bull(s) of the doors of the gate of the cella, door-jambs, door bolt(s), crossbeam(s), architrave(s), (and) giškanakku(s) with ṣāriru-gold and the cedar roof of its dalbānus with silver. I made the access way of the cella and the course to the temple shine resplendently (with) baked brick(s) of ešmarû-metal, the throne platform(s) and daises inside it (with) cast silver, (and) the wild bulls of the doors of (its) gates with zaḫalû-metal.
Obverse Column iii [61:66] iii 6262–iii 6666I suitably beautified the temple (Ezida) and filled (it) with splendor to be an object of wonder. I had the sanctuaries of Borsippa (re)built (and) provided for.
Obverse Column iii [66:70] iii 6767–iii 7070I raised the superstructure of Eurmeiminanki with baked bricks (colored with) shining blue glaze.
Obverse Column iii [70:79] iii 7171–(As for) Maideḫedu, the vehicle of his rulership, the processional barge of the New Year’s festival, the festival of Šuanna (Babylon), I had its karûs (and) the zāratu-feature(s) inside it clad with an overlay of gold and stone(s).
Obverse Column iv [6:13] iv 77–iv 1313(As for) Esiskur, the exalted akītu-house of the Enlil of the gods — the god Marduk — (which was) established for joyful celebrations of the Igīgū and Anunnakū gods, in the outskirts of Babylon, I set (it firmly in place) like a mountain with bitumen and baked brick.
Obverse Column iv [13:17] iv 1414–iv 1717(As for) Emaḫ, the temple of the goddess Ninḫursag (that is) inside Babylon, I built (it) in Babylon for the goddess Ninmaḫ, the mother who created me.
Obverse Column iv [17:24] iv 1818–iv 2424For the god Nabû, the exalted vizier who gave me a just scepter to exercise authority over all of the settlements, I built in Babylon the structure Egidrukalamasumu, his temple in Babylon, with bitumen and baked brick.
Obverse Column iv [24:28] iv 2525–iv 2828For the god Sîn, the one who makes my omens auspicious, I built in Babylon Ekišnugal (Egišnugal), his temple.
Obverse Column iv [28:34] iv 2929–iv 3434For the god Šamaš, the exalted judge who put a propitious omen in my extispicy, I built in Babylon Edikukalama, his temple, to a great height with bitumen and baked brick.
Obverse Column iv [34:37] iv 3535–iv 3737For the god Adad, the one who provides abundance in my land, I built in Babylon Enamḫe, his temple.
Obverse Column iv [37:43] iv 3838–iv 4343For the goddess Gula, the one who saves (and) spares my life, I suitably built in Babylon Esabad (and) Eḫursagsikila, her temples, with bitumen and baked brick.
Obverse Column iv [43:48] iv 4444–iv 4848For the goddess Nineanna, the lady who loves me, I built in the outer corners of the city wall of Babylon Ekitušgarza, her temple, to a great height.
Obverse Column iv [48:51] iv 4949–iv 5151For the god Mār-bīti, the one who breaks the weapon(s) of my enemies, I built his temple in Borsippa.
Obverse Column iv [51:56] iv 5252–iv 5656For the goddess Gula, the lady who keeps my body healthy, I built in Borsippa Egula, Etila, (and) Ezibatila, three sanctuaries of hers.
Obverse Column iv [56:60] iv 5757–iv 6060For the god Adad, the one who pours out abundant rain(s) in my land, I suitably built his temple in Borsippa.
Obverse Column iv [60:65] iv 6161–iv 6565For the god Sîn, the one who bears good signs for me, I radiantly built Edimana, his temple, in the enclosure wall of Ezida.
Obverse Column iv [65:85] iv 6666–(As for) Imgur-Enlil and Nēmetti-Enlil, the great wall(s) of Babylon that Nabopolassar, king of Babylon, the father who had engendered me, had built but whose construction he had not completed — He had dug its moat, constructed two strong embankments with bitumen and baked brick as its bank(s), built the embankment of the Araḫtu (River), constructed piers of baked brick on the other side of the Euphrates (River), but he did not complete the rest.
Obverse Column v [11:20] v 1212–v 2020From Duku Kinamtartarede, the Dais of Destinies, to Ay-ibūr-šabû, the street of Babylon opposite Kasikilla, he (Nabopolassar) beautified the access way of the processional street of the great lord, the god Marduk, with slabs of breccia.
Obverse Column v [20:37] v 2121–v 3737As for me, his first-born son, the beloved of his heart, I (Nebuchadnezzar) completed Imgur-Enlil and Nēmetti-Enlil, the great wall(s) of Babylon. Beside the embankment of its moat, I built two strong embankments with bitumen and baked brick and adjoined (it) to the embankment that my father had constructed. I then surrounded the city (Babylon) on the outside. On the other bank, (on) the western (side), I surrounded the wall of Babylon.
Obverse Column v [37:53] v 3838–v 5353(As for) Ay-ibūr-šabû, the street of Babylon, I filled (it) in with a higher infill for the processional street of the great lord, the god Marduk. I improved Ay-ibūr-šabû, from Kasikilla to Ištar-sākipat-tēbîša, with slabs of breccia and slabs of stone quarried from the mountain(s) to be the processional street of his divinity and (then) I adjoined (it) to the part that my father had built and beautified the access way.
Obverse Column v [53:72] v 5454–(As for) Ištar-sākipat-tēbîša, both gates of Imgur-Enlil and Nēmetti-Enlil, their entrances became too low as a result of the raising (of the level) of the street(s) of Babylon. I removed those gates and (then) secured their foundation(s) at the level of the water table with bitumen and baked brick. I had (them) skillfully built with baked bricks (colored with) shining blue glaze that have (representations of) wild bulls (and) mušḫuššu-dragon(s) fashioned upon them (lit. ‘it’).
Reverse Column vi [7:18] r vi 88–r vi 1818I had (beams of) hard cedar stretched (over them) as their roofs. At each of its gates, I hung doors (made) of cedar with a facing of bronze (and) threshold(s) and nukuššû-fittings of cast copper. At their its door-jamb(s), I stationed fierce wild bulls of copper and raging mušḫuššu-dragons.
Reverse Column vi [18:21] r vi 1919–r vi 2121To be an object of wonder for all of the people, I filled those gates with splendor.
Reverse Column vi [21:38] r vi 2222–r vi 3838(So that) no arrow (during) battle can come close to Imgur-Enlil, the wall of Babylon, (I did something) that no king of the past had done: 4,000 cubits distance outside Babylon, far away, (too far away) to approach (lit. “not to approach”), I surrounded the eastern bank of Babylon with a fortified wall. I dug out its moat and built its embankment(s) with bitumen and baked brick and (then), on its embankment, I built a fortified wall like a mountain. I constructed its broad gates and fitted them with doors (made) of cedar with a facing of bronze.
Reverse Column vi [38:56] r vi 3939–r vi 5656So that no merciless enemy can come close to the outskirts of Babylon, I had the land surrounded with a huge expanse of water, like the roiling sea (Tiāmat), so that crossing them was like crossing the roiling sea, a bitter body of water. In order to prevent dike breaks in them, I heaped them up with earthen dikes and surrounded them on all sides with embankments (made of) baked brick. I skillfully reinforced (Babylon’s) protection by establishing the city of Babylon as a fortress.
Reverse Column vi [56:62] r vi 5757–r vi 6262(As for) Ṭābi-supūršu, the wall of Borsippa, I built (it) anew. I dug out its moat and constructed its embankment(s) with bitumen and baked brick.
Reverse Column vi [62:72] r vi 6363–Nebuchadnezzar (II), king of Babylon, the one whom the god Marduk, the great lord, named for (doing) good things for his city, Babylon, am I. I made Esagil and Ezida shine forth like the sheen of the god Šamaš. I made the sanctuaries of the great gods shine like daylight.
Reverse Column vii [8:33] r vii 99–r vii 3333In the past, from distant days until the reign of Nabopolassar, the king of Babylon, the father who engendered me, the many kings who came before me whose name(s) the god(s) had called to be king, built palaces in cities of their choice, (in) place(s) that they loved, (and) established their residences (in them). They accumulated their possessions inside (them), (as well as) heaped up their property. During the festival of the New Year, (during) the setting out of the Enlil of the gods, the god Marduk, they entered Šuanna (Babylon). Since the god Marduk created me for kingship (and) the god Nabû, his true heir, entrusted his subjects (to me), I have loved their beautiful bod(ies) as my (own) precious life. I have made no city more resplendent than Babylon and Borsippa.
Reverse Column vii [33:56] r vii 3434–r vii 5656In Babylon, the city of my choice that I love, (as for) the palace, a building (that was) an object of wonder for the people, the bond of the land, a holy private room, (and) the cella of my royal majesty, in the Ka-dingirra district — which is in Babylon, from Imgur-Enlil to Lībil-ḫegalla, the eastern canal, from the bank of the Euphrates River to Ay-ibūr-šabû — which Nabopolassar, the king of Babylon, the father who engendered me, had created with (sundried) brick(s) and taken up residence inside, its foundation(s) had become weak on account of flood water (and) the gates of that palace had become too low as a result of the raising (of the level) of the street(s) of Babylon.
Reverse Column vii [56:73] r vii 5757–I removed its wall, (merely) a molding of (sundried) brick(s), and (then) open up its foundation and reached the water table. I secured its foundation at the level of the water table and raised it as high as a mountain with bitumen and baked brick. I had (beams of) hard cedar stretched (over it) as its roof. At each of its gates, I fixed doors (made) of cedar with a facing of bronze (and) threshold(s) and nukuššû-fittings of cast copper.
Reverse Column viii [9:18] r viii 1010–r viii 1818I heaped up inside it silver, gold, precious stone(s), an abundance of anything that is valuable, (and) possessions (and) property worthy of praise. I accumulated inside it (objects) of valor (and) glory, (as well as) royal treasure(s).
Reverse Column viii [18:26] r viii 1919–r viii 2626Because (my) heart did not desire the seat of my royal majesty to be in (any) other city (than Babylon), I did not build a lordly abode in any (other) settlement, nor did I put property befitting a king in any (other) land.
Reverse Column viii [26:51] r viii 2727–r viii 5151In Babylon, the private chambers of my residence were not decorous enough for my status as king. Because worshiping the god Marduk, my lord, was present in my heart, in order to widen the residence of my royal majesty, in Babylon, the city (under) his (Marduk’s) protection, I did not change its street(s), displace its dais(es), nor block up its canal(s). I searched far and wide for (the site of a new) kummu-building and, so that no arrow (during) battle can come close to Imgur-Enlil, the wall of Babylon, 490 cubits distance outside of Nēmetti-Enlil, the outer wall of Babylon, I built two strong embankments with bitumen and baked brick (and) a wall like a mountain.
Reverse Column viii [51:67] r viii 5252–I fashioned a baked brick structure between them and, on top of it, I built a large kummu-building as the residence of my royal majesty with bitumen and baked brick to a great height. I added (it) to the palace of my father and in a favorable month, on an auspicious day, I secured its foundation on the surface (lit. “breast”) of the netherworld and raised its superstructure as high as a mountain. I completed its construction in (just) fifteen days and made the seat of my lordly majesty resplendent.
Reverse Column ix [2:18] r ix 33–r ix 1818I had (beams of) hard cedar originating from the holy mountain (Lebanon), thick pine, and the best selection of cypress stretched (over it) as its roof. At each of its gates, I fixed doors (made) of musukkannu-wood, cedar, cypress, ebony, and ivory with mounting(s) of silver (and) gold and a facing of bronze, (and) threshold(s) and nukuššû-fittings of cast copper. I surrounded its summit with parapets (colored with) blue glaze.
Reverse Column ix [18:44] r ix 1919–r ix 4444I surrounded it with a fortified wall of bitumen and baked brick like a mountain. Beside the wall of baked brick, I built a great wall using strong stone(s) (and) large (slabs) quarried from the mountains and (then) I raised its superstructure like a mountain. I had that building built to be an object of wonder and I filled it with splendor for all of the people to see. Dignity, anger, reverence, (and) brilliance of kingship surround it so that criminals (and) the unrighteous cannot enter inside it. As for the merciless, evil doer in the outskirts of the wall of Ka-dingirra, I drove away his arrows by reinforcing the wall of Babylon like a mountain.
Reverse Column ix [44:65] r ix 4545–r ix 6565I prayed to the god Marduk, my lord, and raised up my hand(s): O Marduk, (my) lord, the wisest of the gods, the proud prince, you yourself are the one who created me and entrusted me with kingship of all of the people. I have loved your exalted body as my (own) precious life. I have made no city more resplendent than your city, Babylon. Because I love worshiping your divinity, I constantly seek out your lordly majesty. Accept my supplications (and) listen to my prayers so that I may be the king who provides (for you and) pleases your heart, the capable governor, (and) the one who provides for all of your cult centers.
Reverse Column x [0:19] r x 1r x 1–r x 1919By your merciful command, O Marduk, may the house that I built stay in good repair forever so that I may be sated with its luxuriousness. May I reach the prime of (my) life (and) attain very old age inside it. May I receive inside it the substantial tribute of kings of the (four) quarters (of the world and) all of the people. From the horizon to the zenith, wherever the sun rises, may I not have enemies nor acquire (any) troublemaker(s). Inside it, may my descendants rule over the black-headed (people) forever.
