| Obverse Column i [0:3] i 1i 1–i 33 | The troops of Ashurbanipal, king of Assyria, that I sent to conquer the land Elam with Ummanigaš (Ḫumban-nikaš II), the son of Urtaku — the king of the land Elam — the fugitive who grasped the feet of my royal majesty. |
| Obverse Column i [3:5] i 44–i 55 | Simburu, the herald of the land Elam, heard about the advance of my troops and became frightened at the mention of my name. He then came before my messenger and kissed my feet. |
| Obverse Column i [5:11] i 66–i 1111 | Umbakidinu, the herald of the land Ḫidalu, who is carrying the (decapitated) head Ištar-Nandi (Šutur-Naḫūndi), the king of the land Ḫidalu. Zinēni, his palace supervisor, is likewise depicted in the lower register. The might of (the god) Aššur, my lord, (and) fear of my royal majesty overwhelmed them (and) (i 10) they cut off the heads of the nobles of the land Elam who had not submitted to me and cast (them) down before my magnates. They grasped the feet of my royal majesty. |
| Obverse Column i [11:13] i 1212–i 1313 | The battle line that Ashurbanipal, king of Assyria (lit. “the land Elam”), formed opposite Teumman, the king of the land Elam, (and with which) he brought about the defeat of the land Elam. |
| Obverse Column i [13:15] i 1414–i 1515 | Teumman, the king of the land Elam, saw the defeat of his troops; he (then) fled in order to save his (own) life and tore out his (own) beard. |
| Obverse Column i [15:18] i 1616–i 1818 | (PN), the son of Teumman — the king of the land Elam — who had escaped from the massacre, torn his garment, (and) was shouting to the father who had engendered him: “Defeat (the enemy)! Do not delay!” |
| Obverse Column i [18:21] i 1919–i 2121 | Teumman, the king of the land Elam who had been struck during my mighty battle, fled in order to save (his) life and slipped int[o] the forest. The axle of the wagon, the vehicle of his royal majesty, broke and it overturned upon him. |
| Obverse Column i [21:23] i 2222–i 2323 | [Teumman, the king of the land Elam], whom (his) wagon had cast down and [whom Tammarītu, his son, had helped up, g]raspi[ng] his [ha]nds. |

F]illed with rage concerning their lord, [... I] detained them. They saw [the (decapitated) head of Teumman, thei]r [lord], which had been brought before me.

It has been said from ancient times through extispicy, as follows: “You will cu[t off the hea]ds of your enemies, (ii 1) you will pour wine [over] them, that [...].” No[w], the gods [Šam]aš and Adad, during my time (as king), [...], I cut off the heads of my [enemi]es (and) pour[ed] wine [over them]. |
