Obverse [4:9] 55–99For his life and the well-being of his city, I built the great wall and t[he g]ates of the New City, from the great [wall] of the Inner City up t[o the river in its entirety], from its foundation t[o its cres]t and I deposited my clay cone.
Obverse [9:15] 1010–1515The gods Aššur [and] Adad will listen to the prayers of a later ruler when that wall becomes dilapidated and he rebuilds (it). [May] (the same ruler) restore my clay cone to its place.
