... ... the Ekur ... by the command of the gods Sîn and Nusku ... above that of the days of the future ... from its foundations to its crenellations ... the Emelamanna, the temple of the god Nusku ... which a king of the past who came before me had built, I built ... I roofed them with beams of cedar ... I fastened bands of ... and I fixed doors of liyari ... and fixed them in their gates.
I sat down at the amanu-district of the god Sin, my lord.
As for the one who completes the cult centers of my royal majesty and makes the people of the mountains and seas dwell at the gate of the Ehulhul temple, I took the hands of the gods Sîn and Nusku and made them sit on their eternal dais. I completed the sanctuaries of Assyria and the land Akkad in their entirety. I built every type of temple appurtenance there is of silver and gold. Above that of the kings, my ancestors, I added. The great gods who support me, I settled them in their exalted dwellings.
I offered sumptuous offerings before them and presented them with my gifts. My regular offerings I made more plentiful than those of distant days and I erected therein my royal statues of silver, gold, and shining copper by the craft of the deities Ninagal, Kusigbanda, and Ninkura. To prolong my life before the gods who support me, I established their sanctuaries. From my childhood until my youth I constantly sought out the sanctuaries of the great gods.
Adad abandoned his rains, Ea opened up his springs.
The shittu-offerings are 5/6? cubits. The yield of the harvest is a constant offering of Nisaba. The reed-beds of the reed beds are a constant offering. The cattle are a constant offering. In the talittu of my reign, abundance is plentiful. In my years, abundance is plentiful.
In all of my land, the price of living was paid. In exchange for one shekel of silver I marched about. The people of Enlil, the great gods, whose divinity I love, the mighty strength of my divine power, they made me attain my wish. The lands that had not bowed down to me they placed in my hands and made me attain my wish. From the Upper Sea to the Lower Sea, which the kings, my ancestors, had traversed, I marched.
... I added to that of the kings, my ancestors, and the lord of ... who dwells in those lands I made bow down at my feet. I imposed upon them a ... payment in perpetuity. ... the god Ashur and the goddess Ishtar, the kings who sit on royal daises, I made bow down at my feet. ... ... and ... for their protection they imposed.

At that time, among the people of the lands that I had conquered with the support of the god Ashur, my lord, I rebuilt the walls, gates, and palaces that were in Kalhu.

Your mighty name may he proclaim. Shepherd Shulgi, your holy water source, when he was born, your mother Ninsun he had named. Your god was the holy Lugalbanda. Mother Nintur he had named.

Suen ... ... ... ... ... like a small tree ... like a small tree .
He spoke to me like mes and date palms. At that time, An and Enlil wrote a tablet and decreed a fate for me. Ninlil sat down in prayer and prayer. The gods of the place of the fates were deciding the fates. The gods of heaven were deciding the fates. From the horizon to the face of the land, Enlil, the king of the lands, gave me the shepherdship. My king, like you, my lord, like you, like you, from the midst of the mind, he spoke to me with broad understanding. May your heroism be made manifest, may your mighty lord be made good.

At that time, from the Abzu he went out, the king, Enki, from the Abzu he looked, and his standing place he destroyed.
From his dwelling he destroyed the city. He did not make the righteous pronouncements of that place come forth. The great lord of Eridu, Shulgi, the true shepherd of Sumer, took the road. From the Ebabbar, the temple of Utu, the king who loves justice ..., the small ... of the foreign lands, he sailed on boats. The great ones, who from a lawsuit he had sworn, he did not swore, and did not extend beyond the sea, he did not extend the days of his city. The hero sailed in his city. The things that Sumer had destroyed, he sailed in the foreign lands. In the city, its gods sailed on their feet.
The wise one, the protective lamma, stood at the side of it. He sat on the right side of the field, he sat on the right side of the barley. He sat on the wide-spread grass. He sat on the big trees. He sat on the trees whose possessions he had seized, he sat on the small trees. He sat on the treasury, he sat on the juniper. He sat on the reed-plants and sat on the reed-plants. He sat on the reed-plants and sat on the ground. The king, who had destroyed the city, who had destroyed the wall, who had destroyed the mountain, who had destroyed the mountain, who had cultivated the seed of Gutium, like the earth,
He smashed the gold and lapis lazuli of the nether world, he smashed the gold and lapis lazuli.

In the shrine Nippur and the shrine Dur-anki, the kargeshtinna of Enlil, the boat was moored. The gold and lapis lazuli of the mountain with a leather strap, a reed strap, a reed strap, the property of the mountain with a strap for Enlil he brought in. The king ... Shulgi he decreed a fate. The king he decreed a fate that is good, he decreed a fate that is good, he decreed a fate that is good, he decreed a fate that is good, he decreed a hero, he decreed a fate that is good.

The gods of the place of decrees stepped up with "Indeed, indeed". From below to above, Enlil, the king of all the lands, gave you shepherdship of the homeland. My king, who is as strong as you, and who rivals you? Who, like you, from womb is so richly endowed with understanding? May your heroism shine forth, may your strength be caressed!

The young ones of the foreign lands I shall let ride off on ships, the big ones I shall "send back from old age". To those who did not return and spread out, the days will not be long!" "I, the king, shall avenge my city. Whatever was destroyed in Sumer, in the foreign lands I shall destroy. The gods of their cities I shall cause to "get into shoes"; their pretty-face udug and lamma protective deities I shall let step out. In their fertile fields of shining barley I shall let long grass grow;

In their well-orchards, where date syrup and fig trees grew, I shall make weeds grow; may ... plants and ... herbs continually break through the earth." "After I, the king, have destroyed the cities and laid flat the city walls, with floodwater caused the torched foreign lands to shake, have scattered the seed of the Guti like seed-grain, have achieved Enlil's triumph, have set the peoples to the pestle, have ... my heart ...,

King, who brought the boat to Uruk, the me of princeliness, Sumer and Akkad, he brought the boat to him. The great mountain goat, who goes at the right time, the mighty sheep, the lord, who is sated with a hand, the suckling sheep, the suckling sheep, the suckling sheep, who is suckling on the breast, to Inanna he brought it into the shrine Eanna. The true shepherd Shulgi, who loves the heart, the suckling sheep, the garment that he wears, he wore it with a radiance. Inanna he spoke to the swarm, and he cried to her. He cried to her, and he cried to her. Like a king, the lord, he poured water.
Like a watering place where Dumuzi is poured, like a sulphur sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a lord whose lord he poured, like a holy sulphur poured out, like a sulphur poured out, like a ...
Like a ... in the midst of the night, like a ... boat, like a ... boat, like a ... boat, like a ... boat, like a ... boat, like a ... boat, like a ... boat, like a king, like a king, like a mighty shepherd, like Shulgi, like a mighty shepherd, like a mighty shepherd, like a mighty shepherd, like a shepherd of the lands, like a shepherd, like a shepherd of the lands, like a lady, beloved by An, a beautiful woman, a ... mother, the father, the divine powers, Inanna, son of Suen,
Shulgi, son of Ninsun, has decreed a fate for him. I am your weapon before him. I am your weapon in battle like a dirt pit. I am your weapon in the assembly. I am your sage, who is chosen by ..., I am your king, who is the true shepherd of Eanna. I am the shuba priest of the Irigal of An. I am the one who builds the temples. I am the one who makes the supreme dais shine forth. I am the one who makes the lapis lazuli throne shine forth. I am the one who makes your head shine forth. I am the one who makes your neck shine forth like a suluhu garment.
The garment of kingship was not smashed, the mitum weapon was not smashed, the mitum weapon was not smashed, the arrow was not smashed, the arrow was not smashed, the arrow was not smashed, the arrow was not smashed, the arrow was not smashed, the arrow was not smashed, the hand was not smashed, the scepter was not smashed, the hand was not smashed, the golden gidri was not smashed, the foot was not smashed, the golden esir was not smashed, you are a king, the battle was not fought, the calf of lapis lazuli was not fought, the gold thigh was not smashed, the heart of your beloved heart was not smashed, the heavens were not smashed,
Enlil, the man who decrees fates, he has sworn by Inanna. In the womb of the happy heart of Ninegal, the black-headed sheep sat on a throne, the white-headed sheep sat on a thigh, the wild bull of the mountains sat on a thigh. The temple of the ninda-mah, the roaring prince, the youth Utu entered the shrine Ebabbar. The youth Utu, his shining head, he sat on his shining head. Shulgi, the true shepherd of Sumer, he imposed a fate on him. The king, the mighty, the mighty warrior, standing in the sun, the youth,
The great mountain ranges, his feet are not grasped, the great warriors of the mountains are strewn, the throne-bearers are strewn, the sag-bearers are strewn, your name is placed on the right side of heaven, your king, Ashimbabbar, goes to you, Enegir, the city built with splendor, a boat that is destined for you, the prince, in the pure heart, the mountain of shuba, you have sworn by Ninazu, the oxen drink, the father, like a roaring horn ... ... ... ... ... ... like a horn ... butter oil .
The king, the lord, who speaks with your hand, is in a rage. The shepherd Shulgi, the lord, who speaks with your hand, is in a rage. The king, Enlil, when he gave me orders, when he entered, when he entered ..., when he entered ..., when ... your heart, when he entered ..., when he ... your strength, when he ... your strength, when he did not enter, when he stood like an ant, when he stood before you, when he was able to go back to you like daylight, when he sat on the mountain, when he sat on the sandstone mountain,
Tidnum spoke sweetly to him. Like Utu, your heart was filled with radiance. Like Nergal, your weapon was filled with death. Your scepter was filled with radiance. I am the great door of my city, I am the great wall of my country. I am the sapar gate of heaven and earth. I am the udsag gate of Sumer. I am your ..., I shall make your ... flourish. By the command of Enlil, I shall make everything abundant. I shall make your head stand in prayer. In the heart of Inanna, the scepter of Ninazu, he has spoken to me.
He made the righteous ewes and lambs rejoice, he made the righteous udders and kids rejoice, he made the white cows grow, he made the calf grow, Nanna in the Etemenniguru temple he made enter, the temple of kingship, the temple that makes the house happy, the king's residence, the holy place, he made rise. His king, Ashimbabbar, looked at him with joy, and Shulgi, the true shepherd of Sumer, decreed a fate. The hero, the lord, who stands at the right side of the Land, he made a good command and made a good word.
The lands that had been destroyed by the kings, I razed, and destroyed. The month of the sakar festival, when I made the divine powers perfect, I made them tremble. Ashan, as you have been, may the mouth of the Land and the mouth of the lands be favourable. The holy Ningal, the lady of the Enunna, like a scepter, he smashed the nails. Suen decreed a good fate for him. In the Egalmah of Ninegal, the holy dais he erected. Ishtaran of Sumer, from the inside, everything that is to be done, the judgment of the Land, he rendered, and the gish of the Land, he rendered.
He did not give a sag-tax to the king, his son, he did not give to him. His father, he did not give to him anything. Sumer he seized abundance, Ur he seized, and his ... he seized. The king, the lands that are pleasing to him, his strength he fashioned, his heroism he fashioned, and the rebellious lands he seized. The cities of Ur he seized abundance, and the king, the sagnu-dragon, the sagnu-dragon, the son of Enlil,
The broad-headed men, the head of heaven, the one who raises his head to heaven, the one who resides in the supreme place, the one who is surrounded by a shackle, the one who resides in the great dais, the one who dwells in the daytime, the one who dwells in the land, the one who rejoices in the lands, the lord Ashimbabbar, praise! Nisaba, praise!
At the king sailing to Uruk towards the princely divine powers Sumer and Akkad marvel. Did he not he moor the boat at the quay of Kulaba? With a big wild bull of the mountains with uplifted horns with a sheep led by the hand of an en priest at his right side, with a reddish kid and a bearded kid doubled up on the breast, before Inanna in the shrine of E-anna he enters. Good shepherd Shulgi, loving heart, dressed himself in a ma garment, put a hili wig as a crown on his head. Inanna marveled, and spontaneously struck up a song, singing the lyrics: "When for the king, for the lord, I have bathed,
when for the shepherd Dumuzi I have bathed, when I have adorned my sides with clay, when with resin I have colored my nose, when with kohl I have covered my face, when with hands of his fairness, he has covered my hips, when the lord who lies down beside silver Inanna, the shepherd Dumuzi, has said 'I would loosen that of the lap', when in my radiant arms he has grown calm, when ... like choice beer ... had touched, when my lap-wool has ..., my pa-wool he has played, when he has put hand to my vulva,
when on my sweet stomach he has lain, like his night boat ..., like his thin boat he has finished, when on the bed he has caressed me, then the lord I shall caress, I shall decree him a good destiny; the good shepherd Shulgi I shall caress, decree him a good destiny. his thick arms I shall caress, shepherdship of all lands as his destiny I shall decree." The lady, the mountain-crystal of heaven, delight of the black-headed, youthful woman who excels her mother, by her father granted divine powers, Inanna, daughter of Suen,
for Shulgi, son of Ninsun, decrees a destiny: "Your 'walking to the fore in battle' am I! Your 'weapon carrier in combat like an attendant' am I! Your 'advocate in the assembly' am I! Your 'breath-giver in the campaign' am I! Shepherd chosen by ... silver are you! King, good provider of Eanna are you. carneol of An's Irigal are you! fir for running, fit to lift head in the august dais are you! fit to take a seat on the lapis throne, your head fit to wear a colorful, as to your body, fit to spread out a the fleece-garment,
fit for stomach-hanging of the garment of royalty, fit to lift to the side the mitum-weapon, fit to open knees with mace, fit to send off straight the broad arrows, fit for throwing stick and shield bound to the hips, as to your hands, fit for silver staff, as to your feet, fit for silver sandals, You have knees! On the campaign, fit for running, fit for playing, like a calf of lapis, on my silver breast; May your loving stomach be lasting! An has doned this for you, may he never alter it!
May Enlil, the decreer of fates, never change it!" So did Inanna caress him. He who knows the joyful heart of Ninegal sheared a black kid bathed a white kid; wild bulls of the mountains by their noses tied up —house of the august breeding bull roars— up to the young man Utu into the temple E-babbar brings, up to the young man Utu raising his radiant forehead, For Shulgi, good shepherd of Sumer, he decress a fate: "King, colorful words, sweet face, mighty hero, born to be a lion, young cow standing firm in its vigor,
valiant, unbound in his strength, whose feet trample great mountains: the heroes of the foreign lands you have brought down, you have trampled upon all the thrones, your name to the edge of heaven you have established. Your king—to Ashimbabbar go in peace." And so at Enegir, city built in splendor, did he not moor the boat? "Seed placed by the prince in the silver womb, born on the bright mountain, Ninazu, like a wild bull lowing in drink, ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..." "... like date syrup, ghee ... your are hero! Come down from the revolting lands ...
King, the lord of prayers and supplications chooses you by heart; shepherd Shulgi, the lord of prayers and supplications chooses you by heart; Who sets a king given strength by Enlil? Who enters to your ...? Who exits to your ...? ... who knows your stomach should not desire your strength. Having desired ... battle with you what escapes your outstretched arms? When like the thunder bird you shriek, who stands before you? When like the storm you howl, the foreign lands, open reeds ablaze, mountains trembling like reeds, in the houses of the foreign lands watching,
Tidnum well marveled. Like Utu, your terror radiates in battle. Like Nergal, your mace drools in death your lance reaches into the blood of the Land. The great door of the city are you, the great wall of the Land are you! A net piled up over heaven and earth are you, lead-jenny positioned with Sumer are you, May your ... call in abundance! May the words of Enlil, enormous things, create shade on your head! May the loving heart Inanna never abandon you!" After Ninazu had called ... blessings again and again,
he let ewes goodly produce endless lambs, let jennies goodly produce endless kids, let white cows set up calves, then before Nanna in his E-temen-ni-guru he enters with them, head held high in the most fitting house of the the royal household, in its royal offering place, the silver place. His king Ashimbabbar casts a joyous glance at him, for Shulgi, the good shepherd of Sumer, decreed a fate: "Hero, lord, mighty one of the foreign lands, right arm of the Land, you have achieved victory for me, have carried out the commandeds.
The houses of the rebel lands that I have cursed you have reduced to ruin mounds. May you never grow weary of perfecting the divine powers for me every month at new moon! Like Ashnan, may your name be as sweet in the mouth of the Land and in the mouths of all the countries! May silver Ningal, lady of the Enunna, like the wooden frame of a waterskin spread out her lap for you! Thus did Suen decree a good fate. In the Egal-mah of Ninegal, he took his seat on the silver throne. The Ishtaran of Sumer, omniscient from the womb, renders the judgments of the Land in due order, makes decisions for the Land in due order
lets no strong man wrong the weak, lets mother speak sweetly to her child lets child answer truthfully to his father. Sumer is filled with abundance, Ur prolonged in splendor, ... establishes. Because the king exulted in his triumph and let his might radiate, his heroism set well, made the rebellious lands bow, made our city Ur raise neck in prosperity; king, adorned with a face of colorful lapis, son of Enlil;
lifting up head to heaven in broad crown, with An in his lofty place taking counsel, sitting with Urash on a big throne, manth and passing days making the Land of Sumer and all the foreign lands play joyously— praise be to Lord Ashimbabbar! praise be to Nisaba!
