| Obverse [0:10] 3535–4444 | At that time the Step Gate of the temple of the god Aššur, my lord, which is opposite the Gate of the Oath of the God of the Land and the Gate of the Judges (and) which was built (some time) ago, had become dilapidated, sagged, and shook. I cleared that site down to the bottom of the foundation pit. I built (the new structure) with limestone and mortar from the city Ubasē. I restored it and deposited my monumental inscription. |
| Obverse [10:16] 4545–5050 | In the future may a later prince, when that site becomes old and dilapidated, repair it. May he restore my monumental inscription (and) my inscribed name to its place. (Then) the god Aššur will listen to his prayers. |
| Obverse [16:17] 8080–8080 | Month of Muḫur-ilāni, twentieth day, eponymy of Šulmānu-qarrād. |
