In Kalhu, my cult center, I built in it temples which had never been built before, the temples of Enlil and Ninurta. I built in it the temples Eaman, Damkina, Adad, Shala, Gula, Sin, Nabû, Beltu, Beltu-kurhi, Sebetti, Kidmuri, temples of the great gods. I built therein the dwellings of the gods, my lords. I surrounded them, I made them resplendent, I hung cedar beams,

I installed doors of magnificent cedars. I fastened bands of bronze on them and installed them in their gates. I erected statues of gold in their gates. I made their great divinity shine with gold and shiny utensils. I plated their hands with gold and precious stones. I gave them gold and property from my land. I clad the temple of Ninurta, my lord, with gold and lapis lazuli. I hung bronze arrowheads on his right and left.

I adorned them with a magnificent gold sash for his throne. His rites were established in the months of Shebat XI and Elul VI. The name of his rites of Elul VI was shirruhtu. I imposed upon them the shirqu-offerings. My royal image was a tamshu-work of a man made of gold, hushe and precious stones. I seated them before Ninurta, my lord. I reorganized the cities of forgotten cities which my fathers had turned into ruin hills. I imposed upon them a new burden. There were many people therein.

I built and completed the cult centers of my land in new ways, I made them flourish, and I deposited barley and straw therein. Ninurta and Nergal, who love my priesthood, gave me a donkey and commanded me to hunt. I killed 450 strong lions.

310 wild bulls in my chariots,

I killed in the midst of my lordly majesty.

200 pigeons like birds, a kind of assemblage,

I slew 30 elephants in the dung, together with 50 wild bulls, life-giving oxen,

140 pigeons, life-giving birds,

20 strong lions from the mountain.

and the forests in the hand? I captured.

Palace of Tiglath-pileser, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, king of Sumer and Akkad, king of the four quarters of the world, chosen by the eyes of the god Idim, king who from the rising sun to the setting sun he swore by his steadfast steadfastness and ruled over the entire world, who entrusted the people of the upper and lower lands, who ruled over their rulers, who established his governors

from the beginning of my kingship until my nth regnal year, from the cities Dur-Kurigalzu, Sippar of Shamash, and Pasitu of Dunanu to Nippur, the Itu'u and the Rubû'u of the land Arumu, all of them, which are on the banks of the Tigris and Surapi, as far as the Uqnê canal on the shore of the Lower Sea, I imposed upon them the payment of tribute from the city Humut.

I built a city. Kar-Ashur, its name, I named there. The people of the lands that I had conquered I settled there. A eunuch of mine I established there. The entire land Bit-Shilani I divided up like a pile. The city Sarrabanu, their great royal city, like a mound of ruins I razed and destroyed. Nabû-ushabshi, their king,

I surrounded and surrounded the perimeter of his city with a ziggurat and I carried off his land, his wife, his sons, his daughters, his property, his treasure, and his palace. The land Emukani I surrounded like a flood, together with its people and possessions, to Assyria. I brought about the defeat of the Puqudu, Ru'u'a, and Li'ta'u, and I brought them out of their midst. I made all the Arameans, as many as there were, under my feet and

I took their king's troops. Karduniash I ruled over. The ra'sanu of Chaldea I imposed tribute. To Ashur, Sherua, lord of Zeruduti, Nabû, Tashmetu, Nanaya, lady of Babylon, Nergal and Lash I offered pure sacrifices in Hursagkalama. The lands Ehaban, Sumurzu, Ebarrua, Ezualzash, Emati, the city Niqu of Tupliash

I ruled the lands Etaranza, Parsua, and Ekapsi, together with the fortified cities of Media.

I imposed upon them two eunuchs of mine as provincial governors tribute from the city rulers of Media.

Sarduri of the land Urartu rebelled against me and sided with Mati'-il. In the lands Kishtan and Halpi, districts of the city Kummuhu, I brought about his defeat and he was frightened of his entire camp. He became afraid of the radiance of my weapons and to save his life he fled. In the city Turushpâ, his city, I captured him and a substantial lawsuit before his gates I committed.

In the environs of the city Turushpâ, I erected my royal statue on a hilltop. I surrounded the wide land Urartu from above to below and I did not have a rival. I conquered the entire land Ulluba. I surrounded, conquered, and plundered the cities Bitirru, Parisu, Tashuha, Mantun, Sardurrana, Dullanal, Sikil-sa, Ashurda, Babutta, Lusia, and Tapsia.

I reorganized the fortresses of the land Urartu, which is behind Mount Nal, to the territory of Assyria. I built a city in the midst of the land Ulluba. I named it Ashur-iqisha. I established therein the governors of the cities Enu, Sasu, Lupusa, Luqia, Shimirra, Ushurnu, Uzurra, Au-ibi, Ubula, together with the land Birdashu, as provincial governors.

the cities Quta, Urra, Arana, Tasu, Uallia, as far as the Euphrates, the border of the cities Kummuhi, Qilissa, Ezeda, Diu'apli, Abbisissa, Harbisinna, Tasa, Enzi, Anganu, and Bezu, fortresses of Urartu, the Kalla-x canal, its canal he conquered, and to the border of Assyria he returned.

I placed x eunuchs of mine as provincial governors over them. I received tribute from all the cities of the mountains, as far as Bikni. I sent eunuch of mine, Ashur-da''inanni, to the mighty Medes of the land Shamshi. Five thousand horses, people, oxen, and sheep and goats, without number, came to me. Sarduri of the Urartian rebelled against me and with Mati'il

his mouth was pierced between Kishtan and Halpi, districts of Kummuhu. He was frightened, and his entire camp fell to him. He became frightened by the flash of my weapons, and, to save his life, he rode in a mare and took the road to Sizir, a rugged mountain. He fled to Sarduri, the Urartian, in Turushpâ, his city.

I imposed upon him a heavy punishment before his gates and I carried off my royal statue. In the environs of the city Turuspâ I erected it. 210 hectares of land in the land Urartu, a vast area stretching from above to below, all of it, there was no rival. I conquered the lands Ulluba and Habhu, which are located behind the land Nal, in their entirety, and returned my royal statue to the territory of Assyria.

In the land Ilimeru I erected my city in the land Ulluba. I named it Ashur-iqisha. I brought the people of the lands that I had conquered therein. I placed a eunuch of mine as provincial governor over them. ... cities ... .

Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of Assyria, unrivalled king, pious shepherd who reveres the great gods, guardian of truth who loves justice, renders assistance, goes to the aid of the weak, perfect man, virile warrior, foremost of all rulers, the bridle that controls the insubmissive, and the one who strikes enemies with lightning: The god Ashur, the great mountain, granted to me unrivalled sovereignty and made my weapons greater than those of all who sit on royal daises.

At the beginning of my kingship, when Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, king of Karduniash Babylonia, together with the troops of Elam, in the plain of Kish I established his defeat, in the middle of that battle he abandoned his camp, fled alone, and to Guzummani fled, entered the Agammu canal and the Apparatu canals, and his life ended.

The chariots, wagons, horses, mules, donkeys, camels, and equids, which in the thick of battle had abandoned, my hands quickly entered his palace which is in Babylon. I opened it and the house of his treasure, gold, silver, gold utensils, silver, precious stones, everything, property, and property, substantial treasure,

his wife, the people of his palace, the stewards, the stewards, all the attendants, as many as there were, the palace attendants, and the captives I brought, and I counted them as booty. After him, to Guzummani, my warriors, in the Agamu canal and the Apparatu canal I sent, and for five days they went out, but they did not see his place.

With the strength of the god Ashur, my lord, I surrounded, conquered, and plundered 129 fortified cities, fortresses of Chaldea, and 820 smaller settlements in their environs. I brought out the auxiliary forces of the Arameans and Chaldeans who were in Uruk, Nippur, Kish, Hursagkalamma, and Cutha, together with the guilty citizens, and I counted them as booty.

On my return march, I received from them the following: the Tu'una, Rihihu, Yadaqqu, Ubudu, Gibrê, Malihu, Gurumu, Ubulu, Damunu:

I conquered the Gambulu, Hindaru, Ru'u'a, Puqudu, Hamranu, Hagaranu, Nabatu, Li'ta'u, and Arameans without number.

28,000 people, male and female, 72,000 horses and mules, 1113 donkeys, 522 mules, 210 camels, 210 oxen, 86,000 sheep and goats, substantial booty I carried off to Assyria.

In the course of my campaign, I received a substantial audience gift from Nabû-bel-shumati, the official in charge of the city Hararatu Harutu: gold, silver, large musukkannu-trees, donkeys, camels, oxen, and sheep and goats. I seized the population of the city Hirimmu, a dangerous enemy, who since time immemorial had not submitted to my yoke, and had not spared his life.

I reorganized that district. I established one ox, 10 sheep, 10 homers of wine, and 20 homers of dates as his first-fruits offerings to the gods of Assyria, my lords. On my second campaign, the god Ashur, my lord, encouraged me and to the land of the Kassites and the land of the Yasubigallians, a dangerous enemy who since time immemorial had not submitted to the kings, my ancestors, I marched.

In the high mountains, difficult terrain, I rode on horseback and my personal chariot in the thick of battle I slew. I was able to carry off the booty from my feet quickly. I slew with my personal chariot very quickly. I surrounded and conquered the city E-Kilamzah, their fortified city. I brought out from it people, young and old, horses, mules, donkeys, oxen, and sheep and goats, and I counted them as booty.

I destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire their smaller settlements, which were without number. I erected a fortress and their tents in the steppe, and then I turned them into ruin hills and reorganized the city E-Kilamzah. I strengthened that city in a way that no other day could equal. I gathered therein the people of the lands that I had conquered.

The people of the land of the Kassites and the land of the Yasubigallians, who had fled from my weapons, I brought out of the mountains and I made them dwell in the cities Hardishpu and Ekubatu. I placed them under the authority of a eunuch of mine, the governor of Arrapha. I had a stele made and the stele of the fates that I had established over them I wrote on it. I placed it in the city.

I turned around lit. "I turned the front of my yoke" and took the road to the land Ellipi. Before my arrival, Ispabara, their king, abandoned his fortified cities and his treasury and fled far away. I overwhelmed all of his wide land like a fog. The cities Marubishtu and Akkuddu, cities of his royal house, together with 34 fortified cities and smaller settlements in their environs, which were without number,

I poured out, I burned, I smashed, I razed, destroyed, and burned with fire their orchards. I poured out a swarm of sahurru-plants over their fields. I surrounded the land Ellipi to its full extent. I carried off people, young and old, male and female, horses, mules, donkeys, oxen, and sheep and goats without number, and I brought them to my presence.

the cities Shihirtu and Kummahlum, fortified cities, together with the smaller settlements in their environs, the district Ebarrû in its entirety, from its own land I took and added to the territory of Assyria. I took Elenzash as a royal city and fortress of that district and changed its former name and called it Kar-Sennacherib.

On my return march, I received a substantial payment from the distant Medes, whose land none of the kings, my ancestors, had heard mention. I made them bow down to the yoke of my lordship. At that time, Nineveh, the exalted cult center, the city beloved of the goddess Ishtar, in which all the rites of the gods and goddesses are established, a durable foundation, a long life, whose foundations from the distant past had been laid with the writings of the inscriptions, and whose foundations were firmly planted,

Assurnant, perfect one, the seat of truth, whose secrets, all of the rituals, and treasures are firmly placed inside it, whose lordship Assyria, since time immemorial, the kings who came before me, my ancestors, had exercised, and who entrusted the people of the god Enlil and the rest, without interruption, in a hostile place, the weapons of the rulers of the four quarters, he constantly sought out inside it,

Neither among them nor among them to the palace inside it, the abode of lordship, whose site was too small, had conceived, nor had his heart conceive of, nor had he conceived of, nor had he conceived of, nor had he conceived of, nor had he conceived of, nor had he conceived of, nor had he conceived of, nor had he conceived of, nor had he conceived of, nor had he conceived of, and conceived of, to me, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, to do this work according to the command of the gods, and with my wrath he brought about it, and

The people of Chaldea, the Arameans, the Manneans, the Que, and the Hilakku, who had not submitted to my yoke, I took away and I made them carry baskets and they brought them. I cut down a brick from a kiln in Chaldea and I surrounded them with their smashed windows. I made them take up residence in the people of the enemy lands that I had conquered. For the performing of its work

The former palace, which 3 hundred and 125 cubits is the width opposite the zamû-wall, the ziqqurrat, 190 cubits is the width opposite the namari-house, the temple of Ishtar, 144 cubits is the width opposite the namari-house, the mashmuri-house, 185 cubits is the width which earlier kings, my ancestors, had built for their lordly dwelling, but whose construction they had not completed,

The Tebilti River, a fresh water source, which in its course the gunû-trees of the city had seized and their ruined mounds had filled, Shamash and from distant days the palace was surrounded, and in its wide flood in its foundations a pig sat there, and he sat there. That palace in its entirety I razed, and that Tebilti canal in its entirety I reconstructed, a pig sat there, and its reeds I made grow,

In the midst of the city quarters of its asurrakku-buildings, I surrounded its base with reeds, above and below, mighty mountain stone with bitumen, and then I brought the field out of the water and I turned it into a mound of ruins.

7 hundred in large aslum-measures, the length, 126 in large aslum-measures, the upper front, next to the 'finger', 2 hundred 17 in large aslum-measures, the lower front,

326 large aslum-plants, the lower front on the south, next to the Tigris, I filled with water and I grew tall.

In the distant past, in the flood of the world, its foundations were not firm. I surrounded its base with large limestone slabs and strengthened its base. I wrote a foundation inscription written in my name on a terrace 100 courses of brick inside it and a terrace on its top I deposited. After that, I enlarged the terrace and then I built 20 courses of brick above the previous one and then I raised it 100 courses of brick higher.

I made it shine like daylight. I added the terrace to the former palace and I made it shine like daylight. I built a palace of elephant ivory, ebony, boxwood, musukkannu-wood, cedar, cypress, juniper, and terebinth for my royal residence. Inside it I planted a treasury, a replica of Mount Amanus, with all kinds of aromatics, fruit trees, trees of the mountains and Chaldea, and I planted a mountain range on its terrace.

Concerning the clearing of the fields of the plain above the city, 2 barig each for the citizens of Nineveh I opened and brought to their attention. For the clearing of the ditches, the following: From the border of the city Kisiri to the plain of Nineveh, and the fortresses I made a document and sent it to the canal Harru.

1 1/2 hectares of land from the Husur canal, the eternal sea, I made its area greater. In those reed-beds I made them grow tall.

As for Nineveh, my capital city, its site I enlarged, its squares I filled with splendor, and the streets and streets I filled with splendor. Like a day, in the future, among the kings, my descendants, whom the god Ashur names for shepherding the land and people, his name, when that palace becomes old and dilapidated, may I renovate its dilapidated sections. May he find an inscribed object bearing my name, anoint it with oil, make an offering, and return it to its place. The god Ashur will hear his prayers.

1 3 each, the inscriptions of the scribe. Sibuti, eponymy of Nabû-le'i, governor of the land of Erbil.

Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, unrivalled king, pious shepherd who reveres the great gods, guardian of truth who loves justice, renders assistance, goes to the aid of the weak, perfect man, virile warrior, foremost of all rulers, the bridle that controls the insubmissive, and the one who strikes enemies with lightning:

The god Ashur, the great mountain, granted to me unrivalled sovereignty and made my weapons greater than those of all who sit on royal daises. In the first campaign of Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, king of Karduniash Babylonia, together with the troops of Elam, his allies, in the plain of Kish I established his defeat.

In the middle of that battle he sat down, his camp he abandoned, and his life he saved. The chariots, horses, wagons, and mules that he had abandoned in the thick of battle he captured, my hands to his palace which is in Babylon he joyfully entered, and I opened his treasure house. Gold, silver, gold, silver, precious stones, everything, possessions, and property, a substantial treasure,

his wife, the people of his palace, the stewards, the stewards, all the artisans, as many as there were, I brought into his palace and I counted them as booty. With the strength of the god Ashur, my lord, I surrounded, conquered, and plundered 129 of his fortified cities, the walled cities of Chaldea, and 620 smaller settlements in their environs.

The urbi, the Arameans, the Chaldeans who were in Uruk, Nippur, Kish, Hursagkalamma, Cutha, and Sippar, the lords, the citizens of the city, the lords, I brought out and I counted them as booty. Endu, the son of the chief cook, sat on his royal throne and entrusted the people of Akkad to him. I set up my eunuchs over all the districts of Chaldea and I installed eunuchs of mine as governors and imposed upon them the yoke of my lordship.

On my return march, I defeated the Tu'una, Rihihu, Yadaqqu, Ubudu, Gibrê, Malihu, Gurumu, Ubulu, Damunu, Gambulu, Hindaru, Ru'u'a, Puqudu, Hamranu, Hagaranu, Nabatu, Li'ta'u, and Arameans without number.

28,000 people, young and old, male and female, 72,000 horses and mules, 1113 donkeys, 522 mules, x thousand oxen, x thousand oxen, x thousand x thousand rams, and 6,000 sheep and goats, I carried off as booty into Assyria.

In the course of my campaign, I received a substantial audience gift from Nabû-bel-shumati, the official in charge of the city Hararatu Harutu: gold, silver, large musukkannu-trees, donkeys, camels, oxen, and sheep and goats. I seized the population of the city Hirimmu, a dangerous enemy, with the sword and I did not spare a single one. Their corpses I carried off and surrounded the city.

I took that district as a new one. I gave to the gods of Assyria, my lords, one ox, 10 sheep, 10 homers of wine, 20 homers of dates as his first-fruits offerings. On my second campaign, the god Ashur, my lord, encouraged me and to the land of Kashû and the land of Yasubigalla, who since time immemorial had not submitted to the kings, my ancestors, I marched.

In the high mountains, difficult terrain, I rode on horseback and had my personal chariot carried on men's necks. I was able to carry off the booty from my hands. I fought with my own men fiercely. I surrounded, conquered, and plundered the cities Bit-Kilamzah, Hardishpu, and Bit-Kubatti, their fortified walled cities. I brought out of them people, horses, mules, donkeys, oxen, and sheep and goats, and I counted them as booty.

and their smaller settlements, which were without number, I destroyed, devastated, and turned into ruin hills. I burned with fire the houses of the steppe, their cult centers, and their cult centers, and then I turned them into ruin hills. I returned that city E-Kilamzah to the fortified city and strengthened its walls more than before, and I settled therein the people of the lands that I had conquered.

The people of the land of the Kassites and the land of the Yasubigallians, who had fled from my weapons, I brought out of the mountains and I made them dwell in the cities Hardishpu and Ekubatu. I, a eunuch of mine, the governor of Arrapha, heard about this and he had a stele made, and the life of the stele I had established for them I wrote on it. I placed it in the city and

I turned around lit. "I turned the front of my yoke" and took the road to the land Ellipi. The high road ... my king Ispabara abandoned his fortified cities and his treasury and fled far away. I overwhelmed all of his wide land like a fog. I surrounded, conquered, destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire the cities Marubishtu and Akkuddu, cities of his royal house, together with 34 smaller settlements in their environs.

I carried off people, young and old, male and female, horses, mules, donkeys, camels, oxen, and sheep and goats without number, and I brought him to an end and he took away his land. The cities Shishirtu and Kummahlum, fortified cities, together with the smaller settlements in their environs, the district of the land Bit-Barrû in its entirety, I ripped out of his land and added it to the territory of Assyria.

I took the city Elenzash as a royal city and a fortress for that district and changed its former name and called it Kar-Sennacherib. I settled therein the people of the lands that I had conquered. I placed it under the authority of a eunuch of mine, the governor of Harhar, and enlarged my land.

On my return march, the distant Medes, whose tribute none of the kings, my ancestors, had heard — I received their substantial tribute and made them bow down to the yoke of my lordship. On the third day of my campaign, I marched to the land Hatti. Fear of my lordly brilliance overwhelmed Lulî, the king of Sidon, and he fled to the middle of the sea.

The great cities Sidon, the distant Sidon, the Ezittu, the Sharippu, the Mahalliba, the Ushu, the Akziba, and the Akku, his fortified cities, the walls of the land, the place of habitations and the mashqitu-house, the house of his trust, the great weapons of the god Ashur, my lord, overwhelmed them and they bowed down to me. Tu-Ba'lu sat on his royal throne over them and imposed upon him a tribute and payment of my lordship, without number, and imposed upon him a payment.

of Minuhimu of the cities Samsimuruna, Tu-Ba'lu of the cities Sidon, Abdi-Li'ti of the cities Urudu, Uru-Milki of the cities Gubla, Mitinti of the cities Ashdod, Budi-il of the city Eammana, Kammusu-nadbi of the city Moab, Aya-ramu of the city Edom, all kings of the land Amurru, their substantial audience gifts, four times the normal amount, came before me and kissed my feet.

Moreover, Shidqâ, king of Isqalluna, who had not bowed down to my yoke, the gods of his father's house, his brother, his wife, his sons, his daughters, his brothers, and the seed of his father's house I took away and returned to Assyria. Lugal-lu-dari, son of Rukibti, their former king, I set over the people of Isqalluna and imposed upon him the payment of tribute and gifts of my lordship and he wrote to me.

In the course of my campaign, I surrounded, conquered, and plundered the cities Edagan, Yapu, Banayabarqa, and Azuru, cities of Shidqâ that had not submitted to me quickly. I carried off their booty. The governors, nobles, and the people of the city Ekron, whose king Padî, together with the oaths of Assyria, had sworn by iron fetters, and gave them to Hazazaqiyû of the land Judah.

The king of Egypt, the men of bows, chariots, and horses of the king of Meluhha, without number, entered and went, their forces were gathered in the plain of the city Eltekeh, above me, and they slew their weapons. With the support of Ashur, my lord, I fought with them and defeated them.

The charioteers, the sons of the kings of Egypt, together with the charioteers of the king Meluhha, were victorious in the middle of the sea. I surrounded, conquered, and plundered the cities Allaqu and Tamnâ. I approached the city Ekron and I killed the governors and nobles who had committed crimes and I killed them in a raging battle in the whole city. I carried off their corpses.

I gave the citizens of the city who had perpetrated this sin and evil to be plundering; their rest were not guilty of crimes or wrongdoing, and their reputations were not good. I ordered Padî, their king, to come out of Ursallimu and to sit on the lordly throne over them, and I imposed upon him payment in recognition of my overlordship.

of Hazaqiau of the city Judah, 46 of his cities, fortresses and smaller settlements in their environs, which were without number, in a snare of rams and a snare of sapping, fighting, sapping, slapping, slapping, and slapping I marched.

2,100,150 people, young and old, male and female, horses, mules, donkeys, camels, oxen, and sheep and goats, without number, I brought out of it and counted them as booty.

As for him, he slew like a bird in the city Ursallim, his royal city, and he razed, destroyed, and burned the fortified cities upon him. He razed, destroyed, and burned the city gate of his city. He escaped from his land and gave to Mitinti, the king of the city Ashdod, and Padî, the king of the city Ekron, and to Shilli-Bel, the king of the land Hazaite I gave and he razed, destroyed, and burned his land.

Upon the tribute of the previous year, the payment of their debts, the tribute of my lordship, I added and established. That man, Hazaqiau, fear of the brilliance of my lordship overwhelmed him and he sent his good men, who to the preservation of the city Ursallimu, his royal city, to him brought, and they completed their work.

30 talents of gold, 800 talents of silver, precious stones, ..., large anzagulu-stones, thrones, thrones, scepters, elephant hides, elephant hides, ebony, multicolored garments, linen garments, tunics, ragamannu-garments,

The bronze, iron, copper, iron, chariots, ..., the ..., the ..., the ..., the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, the iron, which had no equal, with his daughters, the people of his palace, the singers, the female singers, into Nineveh, my capital city, after me sent them, and to pay the tribute and to do service, he wrote to me, his .

In the booty of those lands which I had plundered, I gathered 10,000 bows and 10,000 shields therein and added them to my royal contingent. I divided up the rest of the substantial enemy booty like sheep and goats among my entire camp and my governors, and the people of my great cult centers. At that time, Nineveh, the exalted cult center, the city beloved of the goddess Ishtar, which all the rites of the gods and goddesses are inside it,

The foundations of eternal life, whose foundations since time immemorial had been firmly established with the writings of the foundation documents and whose features had been perfected, a perfect place, a secret place, whose secrets, everything, the craft of the deities, all of the rituals, and the secrets of the lalgar cultic rites, had been firmly established inside it, which since time immemorial earlier kings, my ancestors, before me, had exercised lordship over Assyria and had entrusted to the people of the god Enlil,

And a second time, without interruption, the sanctuaries of the princes of the four quarters were constantly praised inside it. No one among them had ever entrusted himself to the palace inside it, the abode of lordship, whose site had been too small. No one had ever questioned his heart. No one had ever entrusted him with the re-establishing of the city square and the re-establishing of the streets, the re-building of the canals, or the irrigated canals, nor had he entrusted his re-establishing of the lands.

As for me, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, this work by the will of the gods came to me and my mood grew. The people of Chaldea, Aramean tribes, the land of the Manneans, the lands Que, Hilakku, Pilishitu, and Tyre, who had not submitted to my yoke, I took away and their tablets I sent to them and they ... bricks.

I cut down the cultic rites which are in Chaldea and I imposed upon them a punishment for the people who were hostile to me. I made them carry baskets of shittu-sheep. To do her work, the former palace, which is 3 hundred and 125 cubits long, adjacent to the zamû-tree, the Ziqqurrat, 190 and 144 cubits wide adjacent to the Tamari temple, the temple of Ishtar, 184 and 144 cubits wide adjacent to the Tamari temple, the Kidmuru temple, 185 and 145 cubits wide,

which earlier kings, my ancestors, had had built for their lordly dwelling, but had not completed, its work: the Tebilti River, a fresh watercourse, which in its course the gunû-festival of the city had seized and their cult centers had become dilapidated, Shamash and from distant days, when the edge of the palace had become dilapidated, in its midst the water flowed, its foundations had become weak.

That small palace in its entirety I dug, and the Tebilti canal, its path, I cleared away, and its foundations I made secure. Inside the city quarters of the city quarters I surrounded it with a wall of reeds, a mountain stone above, with bitumen, and a field from the sea I filled and a new one I returned.

7 hundred and sixty cubits is the length of a large aslum-stone; 116 is the width of a large aslum-stone above the base of the Virginis; 2 hundred and eighty-eight is the width of a large aslum-stone above the base of the lung; opposite the zamû-vessel, behind the goddess Ishtar;

383 in the great aslum-measure, the upper front, the second, the second, the second, the courtyard behind the house of the ziggurrat, the temple of Ishtar,

326 large aslum-plants, the lower front on the south, next to the Tigris, I filled with water and I grew tall.

In the distant past, during the flood, I did not alter its foundations. I surrounded its base with large limestone slabs and strengthened its base. I wrote a foundation tablet of my name 100 courses of brick inside it and deposited it on its foundations. Later, I enlarged the terrace, and then I enlarged the terrace to 20 courses of brick above and above.

I made it bigger than before. I added the courtyard of the former palace and I made it bigger. I had the palace of cedar, elephant ivory, ebony, musukkannu-wood, cedar, cypress, dapranu-juniper, juniper, and terebinth made for my royal residence.

A vegetable garden, a replica of Mount Amanus, which has all kinds of aromatics, fruit trees, trees that are the mainstay of the mountains and Chaldea, in its environs I planted. Because of the zaqappu-plants, trees, the field of the terrace above the city, 2 barig each for the son of Nineveh I opened and brought to their attention. For the cultivation of the shumuhu-plant, from the border of the city Kisiri to the terrace of Nineveh, the mountain and the birutu I made a document and I made it a document. The Harru canal

1 1/2 hectares of land from the Husur canal, the eternal sea, I widened, and in those gardens I made them flourish.

I enlarged the site of Nineveh, my capital city. I broadened its squares, I surrounded the alleys and squares with them and made them shine like daylight. In the courtyard of the city, with baked bricks and baked bricks, I made them stand in their entirety for my lordly majesty. I had a titurru-crucible made and I established for all of my enemies life and strength that I achieved with the support of Ashur, the great lord, my lord.

In the future, may one of the kings, my descendants, whom the god Ashur names for shepherding the land and people, renovate its dilapidated sections when that palace becomes old and dilapidated. May he find an inscribed object bearing my name, anoint it with oil, make an offering, and return it to its place. The god Ashur will then hear his prayers.

1 34 each, the inscriptions of the scribal art, month "Ayyaru," eponymy of Mitunu, governor of Isana.

... ... ... he established. ... whose residence in the center of the city and Nineveh, my capital city, I enlarged, and their quarters I enlarged, and the alleys and streets I made bigger and brighter. During the day, in front of the city gate, with baked bricks of white limestone, I made a ramp for the passage of my lordly chariot.

I had an inscribed object made, and I wrote thereon the strength and might that I had achieved over all my enemies with the support of Ashur, the great lord, my lord, and everything that I had done for myself. With an inscribed object of the rulers who came before me, my ancestors, in the fortress of Nineveh, my capital city, for the kings, my descendants, I deposited it.

If among my future sons, whom the god Ashur names for shepherding the land and people, when that wall becomes old and dilapidated, may he repair its dilapidated sections. May he find an inscribed object bearing my name, anoint it with oil, make an offering, and return it to its place. The god Ashur and the goddess Ishtar will then hear his prayers.

In the middle of that battle he escaped, his camp he abandoned, and his life he saved. The chariots, horses, wagons, and mules that he had abandoned in the thick of battle he captured, my hands to his palace which is in Babylon he joyfully entered, and I opened his treasure house. Gold, silver, gold, silver, precious stones, every kind of possession, large treasure,

his wife, the people of his palace, the stewards, the stewards, all the artisans, as many as there were, I brought into his palace and I counted them as booty. With the strength of the god Ashur, my lord, I surrounded, conquered, and plundered 189 of his fortified cities, the walled cities of Chaldea, and 620 smaller settlements in their environs.

The auxiliary forces of the Arameans and Chaldeans who were in Uruk, Nippur, Kish, Hursagkalamma, Cutha, and Sippar, the lords, the citizens of the city, the lords, I brought out and I counted them as booty. I placed Endu, the son of the chief cook, on his royal throne and entrusted him with the people of Akkad. I set him in charge of the entire district of Chaldea. I installed my eunuchs as governors and imposed upon them the yoke of my lordship.

28,000 people, young and old, male and female, 7,200 horses and mules, 11,113 donkeys, 5,223 camels, 210,100 oxen, 6,600 sheep and goats, substantial booty I carried off to Assyria.

To make the cult centers a success, I made it flow from the border of the city Kisiri to the plain of Nineveh and the fortresses with the craft of the scribes and I made them flourish. The Harru canal

1 1/2 hectares of land from the Husur canal, the eternal sea, I cleared away, and in those gardens I enlarged.

By divine will, in the orchards grapes, all kinds of fruit trees, cedar, and aromatic trees grew large; cypress trees, meskannu-trees, all kinds of trees grew and they grew; a reed fence was set up to provide for the crossing of the river. The water of the orchards grew and a shadu-tree grew. Lions, pigeons, and reeds grew in it.

The birds of heaven and the herons of its surroundings, whose location is remote, roared, and pigeons of reeds whose sting was palpable, smote him. I cut down meskannu-trees and cypress trees grown in the orchards and marsh reeds from the swamps and I used them in the work required to build my lordly palaces. ... I made their ... amidst the palace, which is the birthplace of my land, and I poured out sweet wine for their limbs.

Nineveh, which from the previous 93,000 cubits in its entirety the wall and the wall of Shulhu had not built, the road before your rulers

of his great wall, Badnikalbilukurashu, the outer wall of whose radiance is a sacrificial

In the midst of the mountains I cut down strong mountain stone and above it I surrounded it with large limestone slabs. I completed its construction. I enlarged the site of Nineveh, my capital city. I broadened its squares and made them as bright as day. I had a wall of alu-wood built and raised up its superstructure. As for the passage of the Husur River, in the city where water flows above and below, with baked bricks from the mountains I raised its superstructure.

In the front of the city gate, I had a window made with baked bricks of white limestone for the entrance of my lordly chariot. I had a replica of my inscribed object made and I deposited therein the life and might that I achieved over all my enemies with the support of Ashur, the great lord, my lord, and everything that I had done. With the inscribed object of the rulers who came before me, my ancestors, in the wall of Nineveh, my capital city, for the kings, my descendants, I deposited.

In the future, may one of the kings, my descendants, whom the god Ashur names for shepherding the land and people, renovate their dilapidated sections when those walls and outer wall become old and dilapidated. May he find an inscribed object bearing my name, anoint it with oil, make an offering, return it to its place, and the god Ashur will then hear his prayers. ... nth copy of the inscribed object ... may the god Bel-sharrani

The god Ashur, the great mountain, granted to me unrivalled sovereignty and made my weapons greater than those of all who sit on royal daises. At the beginning of my kingship, Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, king of Karduniash Babylonia, together with the troops of Elam, his helpers, in the plain of Kish I established his defeat.

The servant who belonged to me who had stood before him, his gods, the people of Hilakku, rebelled and captured. The battle line of the people living in Ingirâ and Tarzi, they captured and the road to Que they took, and they took to the road. The men with bows, the chariots, the horses, the contingent of my royal majesty, I dispatched to them. The people of Hilakku who captured him in the rugged mountains they placed their trust.

The cities Ingira and Tarzu conquered and plundered. Those who were inside the city Illubru, his fortified city, came to an agreement and took away his property. In the midst of the snares of the zigallu-wall and the kalbannû-walls, battle and strife erupted against him, and they took away from him the city Kirua, the city ruler, together with the booty of his cities and the people of Hilakku, who were with him, together with donkeys, oxen, and sheep and goats, brought to Nineveh, before me.

I returned the king's camp to its place and I reorganized the city Illubru. I settled there people from the lands that I had conquered. I made the weapon of the god Ashur, my lord, dwell therein. I had a stele made of alabaster and set it before him. In the eponymy of Ashur-belu-ushur, governor of the land Katmuhu, to the city Til-garimme, a man on the border of the land Tabal, whose weapons Gurdî, the king of the city Urdutu, had cast.

I seized the troops, the bowmen, the stewards, the chariots, the horses, and the troops of my royal contingent. They seized him. That city, a savage, he seized. With a snare, a snare, a snare, a snare, he took the people, together with the gods living inside it. He carried off captives from that city, he destroyed, demolished, and burned. He returned to ruin hills and ruined cities. In the booty of those lands which I carried off,

10,000 bows, 10,000 arutu-woods,

I built therein and added to my royal territory. I divided up the rest of the substantial enemy booty like sheep and goats among my entire camp and my governors, and the people of my great cult centers. At that time, Nineveh, the exalted cult center, the city beloved of the goddess Ishtar, in which all the cult centers of the gods and goddesses are situated, a durable foundation, a long life, whose foundations I had fashioned from the foundations with the foundations of the cult centers, and I fashioned its bricks.

Assurnant, perfect one, abode of secrets, whose every kind of work of skill, all of the rituals, treasures, and treasures are stored inside it, whose lordship Assyria, since time immemorial, the kings who came before me, my ancestors, had exercised, and who had entrusted the people of the god Enlil, no one among them had ever conceived of or planned to build a city, build a wall, and restore the suqû-tree, and to the canal Zaqappa-tree, the canal of the cultic rites, and whose lordship had not been able to acquire,

As for me, Sennacherib, king of the world, king of Assyria, the performing of this work by the will of the gods, he conceived and my mood grew, and the people of Chaldea, Aramean tribes, the land of the Manneans, the lands Que and Hilakku, Pilishitu, and Tyre, who had not submitted to my yoke, I abandoned them, and they took away their tablets and they brought bricks of the former palace.

In all of their lands, in the month Ayyaru II, the day of the year when the flood was in full spate, with magnificent boats to this side they brought. They sailed very fast in the narrow channel, their boats sailed, and their people sailed.

they smashed their gates with mighty force and skill, and they smashed their gates. The Tebilti River, a fresh watercourse, which from distant days was near the palace, and which in its flood, a flood of a

In 1/2 iku of the field, I poured water from 4 large limestone slabs with bitumen and poured over them reeds of ape and kupe.

3 hundred 40 cubits, the length 2 hundred 29 cubits, the width

I took the land from the Husur River and the plain of the city like a mountain. I added to the former terrace and in its entirety in one hundred and thirty-four courses of brick I raised its superstructure. For long days, in flood, the foundation of the terrace was not weakened. Large limestone slabs I surrounded its base and strengthened its base. For 700 large cubits of dead flesh, and 400 large cubits of head,

I built a palace of gold, silver, bronze, tin, bronze zagulme-stone, breccia, agate, elephant ivory, ebony, a bed, a mesmannu-wood, cedar, cypress, juniper, elammaku-juniper, and sunda'u-wood, for my lordly residence, and a storehouse, a replica of a Hittite palace, opposite its entrances, and I had a roofed it with beams of cedar and cypress, whose fragrance is sweet, the creation of the land Hamanum

and the Sierra, holy mountains, I made rise above them. I fastened doors of cedar, cypress, juniper, and juniper with a bronze band and installed them in their gates. In the gateways, I opened the access-way to the cloisters. I fashioned lamassus and agate, elephant ivory, whose hands are grasped and whose bodies are secure, a robe of luxuriance, as much as there was, and I made them enter into their gates and to the cult centers I made them enter.

I adorned their ruins. I decorated them with a magnificent splendor. I adorned the door bolts, the silver and copper in them. With baked bricks, lapis lazuli, lapis lazuli, and all of their copings, in order to complete the work of my palace and to secure my hands, at that time, the god Ashur and the goddess Ishtar, who love my priesthood, the cedar trees, whose scent since distant days has been cherished and which have become great in the Sierra mountains,

They made their supplications clear. Of alabaster, which in the time of the kings, my ancestors, in the midst of the mighty battle array in the wide plain of the land Ammanana, they had smashed, and of breccia, as much as is needed for making burzigallu-bowls, which had never been seen before, in the city Kapridargilâ, which is on the border of the city Til-Barsip, he had made them see. In the territory of Nineveh, in the territory of the city Balataya, according to the command of god, he had a smeared pilû-stone for making a feast, and

In the midst of the plain I cut down strong mountain stone and above it I surrounded it with large limestone slabs. I completed its construction. I enlarged the site of Nineveh, my capital city, and made its squares bigger and more splendid than before. I had a wall made of alu-wood and made it high as a mountain. I made the city and below the city larger and planted in them orchards of the mountains and all of the land of Hatti, as many as there were of them.

On the other side of the river, which is opposite the river, I poured out wine from the mountain. All the threshing floors, aromatics and cedars for the aforementioned I poured. The Husur canal, whose waters from ancient times were drained and no one among the kings, my ancestors, had drained them and they drank. The Halhalish canal, to the dike-dike-dikes, to the dike-dikes, to the dike-dike from the border of the city Kisiri, the sailor, in the akkullu-dike I had drained.

I slew the mountains on the road and I marched as far as the city Elmunaqinnu. At the beginning of the city Dur-Ishtar, Shibaniba and Sulli I saw their faces awe-inspiring radiance I made them rise and returned to the kuppi. Because of this, I made those waters flow into rugged mountains, a rugged mountain, I made a swell of water flow through the akkullu-dwelling and their heads I made rise. To the plain of Nineveh

The rivers Harratu strengthened, like the szupuuk of the mountains, those waters in them I established. Like a spring I raised the water above the Husur River and continuously provided for it. In the labor of the craftsmen I made all the harvests plentiful. I brought out 1,000 seed cornfields above city and below city. That land for the irrigation of those waters the Agammu River irrigated and the shushû-water in it I drained. The eagles, pigeons, and reeds

By divine will, in the orchards of the open country, wine, all kinds of fruit, cedar, aromatics, he strove to gather; cypress, meskannu-wood, all kinds of trees he strove to gather and he strove to gather; a large flock of birds of the sky, a heron whose location is remote, he smote, and pigeons, cypress, he smote; a large flock of birds of the meskannu-wood, cypress, in the middle of the grove, he strove to gather; a large flock of birds of the meskannu-wood, cypress, in the middle of the groves,

I cut down the reeds in the marshes and I did it for the work on the restitution of my lordly palaces. They smashed the reeds and piled them up. After I had finished the work on my palace, I invited inside it the god Ashur, the great lord, and the gods and goddesses living in Assyria, and I offered sumptuous offerings. I offered and presented them. My kadrû-offerings, fine oil, and aromatics from the orchards in the steppe.

At the inauguration of the palace, who entrusted the subjects of my land, they poured out sweet wine for them, and their faces were bright. In the future, among the kings, my descendants, whom the god Ashur names for shepherding the land and people, his name, when that wall becomes old and dilapidated, may he ... restore it. May he find an inscribed object bearing my name, anoint it with oil, make an offering, and return it to its place. The god Ashur and the goddess Ishtar will then hear his prayers.

Abu V, eponymy of Ili-kia, governor of Damascus 645.

Palace of Sennacherib, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, king of the four quarters of the world, favorite of the great gods, wise prince, circumspect ruler, shepherd of people, leader of a widespread population, I, the god Ashur, father of the gods, looked steadfastly upon me among all rulers and made my weapons greater than those of all who sit on royal daises.

a scepter of wisdom, who broadened the borders, who had no rival, to cut down the enemies, he made bow down at my feet. In the plain Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, king of Karduniash Babylonia, the Chaldeans and Arameans, together with the troops of Elam, his helpers, I smashed. He fled to the Sealand and the gods of the entire land with the feet of his fathers

previously from the tomb he seized and his people into boats he brought out and to the city Nagitu which is upstream from the Marratu River he crossed and in that city he sat down. I conquered all of his land and I counted as booty. I destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire his cities. I destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire the cities Hirimmu and Yasubigalla, the land Ellipi, and I destroyed their settlements. That Lulî, the king of the city Sidon, seized, and

Tu-Ba'lu sat on his throne and imposed upon him payment in recognition of my overlordship. He smashed his extensive army and seized the district of the land Judah. He put to the sword the people of the city Tumurrum who live on a rugged mountain. He razed, destroyed, and burned the city Ukku together with all its settlements like a flood. The people of the land Hilakku who live in the highlands screamed and killed with the sword their cities. I burned, destroyed, and burned with fire the ... of the gods.

The city Til-Garimmu, which is on the border of the land Tabal, he conquered and turned into ruin hills. The cities Naritu, Naritu-di'bina, Hilmu, Pillatu, and Hupanu, districts of the king of the land Elam, whose dwellings are situated on the seashore, which the people of the land Bit-Yakin had taken away from my mighty weapons, the gods of their land, in their abodes, they crossed the sea and settled therein. On boats of the land Hatti

which in Nineveh and Til-Barsip they had built, the sea he crossed. The cities which were in those districts he conquered and with the sword I seized. The people of the land Bit-Yakin and their gods, together with their captives, the king of the land Elam, I plundered and to Assyria I returned. After the Babylonians who had fled with Marduk-apla-iddina had fled, Elam they captured. The king of the land Elam to Babylon he brought and Shuzubu, son of Gahul, on the royal throne

I imposed upon them tribute, bowmen, chariots, horses, and the royal contingent in the face of the king of the land Elam. He imposed upon them tribute, many troops, together with his son, and they returned. Later, they ... up to Uruk. Shamash of Ararma, Beltiya-reshi, Beltiya-sha-unu, Nanaya, Ushur-amassa, Belet-ila, Kurunnam, Kashitu, and Igigu, the gods dwelling in Uruk,

Uruk, together with their property and their property, which were without number, on their return from the war, Shuzubu, king of Babylon, in battle with a raging battle he conquered. Their hands he cut off, and before me brought him. At the city gate of the city of Nineveh he smashed him, and the king of the land Elam who had come to the aid of the Babylonians he marched to his land. The fortified cities, his temple, and the smaller cities in their environs

I marched as far as the passes of the land Bit-Bunakku and conquered them. I plundered, destroyed, and burned them. By the god Geshbar I approached. The king of Elam heard about the conquest of his cities and fear fell upon him. The rest of the people of his land to the fortresses I brought down. He abandoned the city Madaktu, his royal city, and to the city Haydala, which is in the midst of the mountains, he set his face towards Madaktu, his royal city. I said: "The month Tebetu, the strong one, arrived and

The king of the Elamites, Parsuash, Anzan, Pashiru, and Ellipi, all of Chaldea, all of the Arameans, a great army, formed a confederation with him, together with the king of Babylon, and to wage war on my behalf marched. With the strength of the god Ashur, my lord, in the plain of the city Halulê,

I fought with them and defeated them. I felled with the sword 1 hundred and fifty thousand of their battle troops. I seized their chariots, wagons, and royal steeds. I seized their magnates, together with Nabû-mushetiq-eresh, son of Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, who in silver chariots sat in a throne, a gold ring, a gold ring, and a gold ring, and

The gold rings, their sling straps, their limbs, their limbs, in battle he captured. Hands of the king of Babylon and the king of the land Elam, whose battles my battles overwhelmed, inside their chariots they abandoned them, their bodies they carried off, and their land they captured. At that time, the palace behind Nineveh, which for the securing of the camp, the overseeing of horses and the securing of everything he had made, the kings who came before me

My fathers, who had not built that palace, did not have its terrace and did not have the terrace for the pleasure of riding horses. The gate of that palace was old and its foundations had become weak. I razed, destroyed, and enlarged that palace in its entirety. Like a ruin hill I slew a great number of dwellings from inside it and thereby enlarged its area. I deposited my clay cone. The former palace I abandoned and in the midst of the ruin hil

which I had taken out and filled with water, I filled with it 3 stretches 20 fingers. With my great nabû-stone up to the upper side I raised it up. The top of that terrace I surrounded. The foundations of the palaces I built. The palace of white limestone, cedar, the terrace of the palace of Hatti, and the exalted palace, the work of Assyria, which is in great abundance and awe for my royal residence, I had built. Because of my supplications, my supplications, to the niru and paqadu-offerings,

The substantial booty of the enemy which I had plundered and which Ashur had deposited in its great courtyard, with the exalted strength of the gods, my lords, the kings of the land Amurru, all of them, who had put their trust in me, I made them return. After large cedar beams had been cut in the land Hamanum, to Nineveh they were gathered and I made them return. I fastened bands of copper on doors of cypress and liyaru-wood and I deposited them therein.

Ashur-stone, whose position is like that of a seed of a sown seed, as much as is needed for making a stele, a stone for a sledge, a stone for a sledge, and a stone for a sledge, a stone for a sledge, a stone for a sledge, which from the foot of Mount Nipur, the mountain, he created, together with limestone, a stone for a sledge, which he had made in Balataya, he made and he made them hold their feet. The sphinxes of Ashur, the cedar beams, I fashioned and that palace, this limestone slab

I imposed upon her her gandu-offerings, by means of the scepter that I had carried out, and the lord of wisdom, Ninshiku, as much as work on bronze for the renovation of my palaces of Nineveh I opened. By divine will and divine will I created, and copper I poured inside it, and he decreed my handiwork and the lamassus of copper I fashioned. Ashan-stone I made them stand between the sphinxes, he made them rise, and he made them rise.

In the great courtyard, above, the palace of white limestone for my royal abode of Ashan, Dur-minabanda and Sabu, I had four columns of bronze for their brothers, a terrace for its terrace built, and with cedar beams of the top of it I raised its superstructure, and the great palace I made great, and I completed it.

to the totality of all peoples, he made it abundant. The tribute of all the distant lands of the distant Medes, whose inheritance none of the kings, my ancestors, had received, together with the wagons and chariots of the king of the land Elam, king of Babylon, and Chaldea, which I had conquered, my hands with the ... which I had seized, I sent to the district of that palace and he brought it inside.

By the command of the god Ashur, father of the gods, and the goddess Ninlil, queen, in that palace, with happiness, good health, and a long life, may I be sated with your good health, may I be sated with your fullness of life, may I be able to live a long life in distant days. Inside it, the protective spirit, who preserves life, the god who provides for the day and night, may she not be negligent.

At that time

of Nineveh, my capital city, I enlarged its site. The course of the royal road I broadened and made shine like daylight. I had a wall and a quarter built and I raised it as high as a mountain. I made 100 large cubits wide and raised it as high as a mountain. The days of the royal road I had a stele made and that the king had surrounded with a wall in its entirety,

52 cubits is the total of the royal road.

If the people living in that city whose house is old and new they will build, and the foundations of his house to the expedition of the king they will tear out, and the outside of his house to the outside they will carry.

I had mercy on him, and that district of Bazi I had conquered.

With the strength of Ashur, Sin, Shamash, Nabû, Marduk, Ishtar of Nineveh, and Ishtar of Arbela I conquered all the enemies. By the command of their divinity, rulers of my enemies ... and storms they set out.

Palace of Ashur-ah-ittannu, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad, son of Sennacherib, king of Assyria, descendant of Sargon II, king of Assyria, king who with the support of the gods Ashur, Sîn, Shamash, Nabû, Marduk, Ishtar of Nineveh, and Ishtar of Arbela, the great gods, his lords, from east to west

I conquered the city Sidon, which is in the middle of the sea, the sapinu-tree of all of its settlements, its walls and its dwellings, and I confined them inside the sea, and I destroyed the place where it was to be erected. Abdi-Milkuti, his king, who had fled from my weapons in the middle of the sea, I seized him like a fish from the sea and cut off his hands. I took away his property, gold, silver, precious stones, ivory, elephant hides, ivory, ebony, and linen garments.

I carried off to Assyria his extensive people, who had no rival, oxen, sheep and goats, and donkeys, the father's son, and the kings of Hatti and the Upper Sea, all of them, in another place, and I named it Kar-Ashur-ahushuna. I settled therein the people, captives of my bow, of the mountains and the sea, the rising sun.

I placed a eunuch of mine as provincial governor over them. Further, Sanda-duri, king of the cities Kundu and Sisû, a hostile enemy who did not fear my lordship, who the gods had abandoned and trusted in the rugged mountain, and Abdi-Milkuti, king of Sidon, trusted in his own protection, and the name of the great gods to each other they decreed and trusted in their forces. I trusted in Ashur, my lord, and I seized him like a bird from the mountain and cut off his field.

Because of the might of the god Ashur, my lord, the people were gathered, and the heads of Sanda-duri and Abdi-Milkuti I carried off, and with the singers and musicians in the streets of Nineveh I passed. The sailor of Arzâ, who is on the border of the Moab, I gave to him as his king a stele, together with his stewards, and to Assyria I returned.

21 cities, including the smaller settlements in their environs,

I fought, defeated, plundered, destroyed, demolished, and burned with fire. Their remnants, who had no guilt or crime, I imposed upon them a heavy punishment, the punishment of my lordship. The defeat of the land Barnakku, the savage, the defeat of the people of the land Til-Assurru, who at the command of the people of the cities Mehranu and Pittanu spoke their words, the destruction of the Mannean people, a slanderless oath, the sworn by the troops of Ishpakaia, the Ashkelon, the unsubmissive, the one who did not fear him, they struck with the sword.

Nabû-zer-zisisa, son of Marduk-apla-iddina II Merodach-baladan, who trusted in the kingship of the land Elam and did not spare a single one, Na'id-Marduk, his brother, fled from the land Elam to do obeisance to me and came to Nineveh, my capital city, and kissed my feet. The Sealand to its opposite, the rebellion of his brother, he made him take hold of. The enemy of the land E-Dakkurri, which is in Chaldea, the land of Babylon,

Moreover, Shamash-ibni, his king, was a slanderer, a liar who did not respect the words of the lord of lords, who sinned against the fields of the citizens of Babylon and Borsippa in rebellion and because I, the fear of Bel and Nabû, knew, those fields he returned and gave them to the citizens of Babylon and Borsippa. Nabû-shallim, son of Balasu, sat on his throne and he made a reed basket. The cities Adumutu, fortified cities of the land of the Arabs,

which Sennacherib, king of Assyria, the father who had engendered me, conquered and his property, his possessions, and his gods together with the woman Apkallati, the queen of the Arabs, plundered and took to Assyria, Hazael, king of the Arabs, with his substantial audience gift to Nineveh, my capital city, came and kissed my feet. Because of the payment of his gods, he sinned and I had mercy on him. I restored those gods and restored their balance.

I had the might of the god Ashur, my lord, and the writing of my name written upon them and I gave them back to him. I established Tabua, who was born in my palace, as king over them and I returned her to her land with her gods.

115 camels, for the tribute of my father,

He added to it the previous payment and established it for him. After Hazael had paid the penalty, he placed Ia'lû, his son, on his throne and

10 minas of gold, 1,000 reeds,

50 camels, 1,000 containers of aromatics,

He added to the tribute of his father and imposed it upon him. The land Bazu, a district in its environs, a remote place, a place of famine, a place of hunger,

100 hectares of land, cultivated,

... and a shabitu-stone

20 ..., the area of snakes and scorpions;

Who like a suckling pig is swollen,

20 ... of the land of Hazau, ... of saggilmud-stone;

After me I abandoned it and went up. That which from distant days had not come, the king who was before me, by the command of the god Ashur, my lord, I marched safely inside it.

8 kings who were in that district I killed.

I carried off their gods, their property, their possessions, and their people. To Assyria I brought La-allê, the king of the city Yadi', who had fled from my weapons, the booty of his gods, and went to Nineveh, my capital city, before me, and kissed my feet. I had mercy on him and I told him to take the road. I carried off his gods, which I had carried off, the might of the god Ashur, my lord.

He imposed upon him tribute and payment in recognition of my overlordship. He brought before him Bel-basha, son of Bunanu, a Gambulian whose residence is located 12 hectares of land in water and marsh, like a nest, by the command of the god Ashur, my lord, a severe defeat upon him and according to his own report, tribute and payment, oxen, suckling, white mules, from the land Elam, to Nineveh, before me.

He brought him and he kissed my feet. I had mercy on him and made him more splendid than before. He made the city Sha-pi-Bel, his fortified city, strong and he made him strong, together with his bowmen, therein, and like a door in front of the land Elam he hung it. Patusharra, a district on the edge of the salt-house, which is in the distant Medes, which is on the border of the land Bikni, a block of lapis lazuli, which none of the kings, my ancestors, had ever seen.

Shidir-parna and E-parna, mighty rulers who were not submissive to the yoke, together with their people, horses, their steeds, oxen, sheep and goats, donkeys, and camels, their substantial booty, I carried off to Assyria.

As for the city rulers who had seized them in the street, my lordly majesty, he smote them and they smote me. The oath of my eunuchs and governors who were in the territory of their land he swore against them, and the people living in those cities he captured and made bow down at their feet. I imposed upon them tribute and payment in recognition of my overlordship. From Ashur, Shamash, Bel and Nabû

Ishtar of Nineveh and Ishtar of Arbela imposed upon my enemies in a levy and I carried off as booty as my own body in the smashed enemy whose hands I conquered with the support of the great gods, my lords, and I had shrines of the cult centers of Assyria and Akkad built, and silver and gold I plated and I plated them as if they were gold. At that time, the palace of the reviewer in Nineveh, which the kings who preceded me, my ancestors, had built,

To make the road clear, to provide for the horses, mules, chariots, mules, ..., the weapons of war and the booty of the enemy, all of the things that the god Ashur, king of the gods, gave me for the exercise of my kingship, to make the horses and the chariots strong, this stele he brought to me and the people of the lands who had cast bows to me he made them carry baskets and they brought bricks. That palace

I surrounded the plain with a great area like a marsh, and I removed the fields from them and added them to it. I surrounded the sea with limestone, stone from a mighty mountain, and I fought with them and 22 kings of Hatti on the shore of the sea and the middle of the sea I brought to them and I erected great beams of tall cedars.

In the month Addaru, the day of the remission of debts, above that terrace

To the residence of my lordship I have re-established it. The strong house of 115 large cubits is its length.

31 large cubits is the width;

which none of the kings who preceded me, my ancestors, had ever done, I did. I roofed it with magnificent cedar beams. I fastened bands of silver and bronze on doors of cypress, whose scent is sweet, and installed them in its gates. I had bull colossi and lamassus, whose horns are adorned with evil features, guard the platform, guard the journey of the king who created them, on the right and left, and I secured their bolts.

I had a palace of white limestone and cedar with a magnificent luster built for my lordly pleasure. I had lamassus, copper, and mashatu-plants, which are in abundance, placed in front and behind it, and I surrounded it with a terrace. I surrounded the doors with magnificent cedar beams and adappu-wood. I had the outer wall of that palace covered with a sash of azu-stone and lapis lazuli and I made it resplendent. I surrounded it with a sash of matgiqu-wood like a rainbow. I surrounded all the gates with a sash.

I fashioned a basket of pure silver and shining bronze in it. The might of the god Ashur, my lord, which I had done in hostile lands, I gathered therein by the craft of the sage. I planted in it a vegetable garden, a replica of Mount Amanus, which has all kinds of aromatics and trees grown therein. I enlarged its great courtyard and greatly expanded its journey.

Shamash-ibni, its king, was seized. A fugitive, who did not fear the word of the lord of lords, who seized the fields of the citizens of Babylon and Borsippa in fetters and returned them. He was a great man. Because I was angry with Bel and Nabû,

Those fields he returned and before the citizens of Babylon and Borsippa he made them take up residence. Nabû-shallim, son of Balasi, sat on his throne and wrote thereon his report. Bel-basha, son of Bunanu, the Gambulean, who in 12 hectares of land in water and marshes, seized them. By the command of the god Ashur, my lord, fear fell upon him and he, by his own instruction, he incurred a debt.

I conquered the entire land of Shubria. Ikteshup, his king, did not listen to the word of my command.

I fought with the sword. The city Tyre in the middle of the sea I captured. Ba'alu, its king, who trusted in Taharqa, king of Kush, and took away all of his cities and possessions, I captured. Egypt, Paturisu, and Kush I captured. Taharqa, its king, five times in the Pleiades I fought and the whole of his land I ruled. The kings of the middle of the sea from Yadanana to Yaman to Tarsi

I received their heavy tribute. I established a levy on the rulers of the four quarters of the world and imposed it upon all the enemies. I received tribute, silver, silver, property, people, young and old, horses, oxen, and sheep and goats, their heavy tribute, which were without number, and I carried it to Assyria. I placed kings, governors, governors, and chief cupbearers over their lands.

I set up and the radiance of the god Ashur, my lord, I gave them. The regular offerings for the god Ashur and the great gods, my lords, I established forever. The tribute and payment of my lordship, as much as there was, I gave them. They were redeemed. At that time, the former temple of the god Ashur which Shulmaneser, son of Adad-narari, son of Arik-din-ili, my father, had built, had become old and old. That temple I destroyed.

I conquered his stronghold. I surrounded his body with a stele of strong mountain stone like the base of a mountain. I built and completed it from his body to its crenellations. I roofed it with magnificent cedar beams from the mountains Siara which I cut in the course of my campaign. I fastened bands of gold on doors of cypress, whose scent is sweet, and I decorated its gates with gold. I decorated the aegis of Ashur, my lord, with gold.

Lahme and Kuribu, who are clad in splendor, stood at the side. I erected in the cella of Ashur, my lord, gold statues, creations of the apsû, on the right and left, and decorated the walls with gold like a shiru-demon.

Ashur? ... the great gods in it ... eternal ... to Ashur-papmu ... ... his eyes he gave him and he listened to him. A report to renovate Esharra, to complete the cultic rites of his name he gave. To kingship he built Esharra, exalted baraque of my lapis lazuli. As a scribal art, he made his plans perfect like the writing on the tablet. Ashur-papmu placed the perfect foundations of the temple of Ashur.

The army of Ashur has departed; to all the fathers has departed; all the rulers have departed; to the city of the world, in Baltil, the exalted cult center, the city of the king of the gods, Ashur, to do the work of Esharra ... he has taken. In a reign of ..., he has sinned against the ..., he has sinned against the ... oil of Hashur, he has smashed the bricks, the ... bricks, the daughter of the king

Ashur-ah-ushur, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad, true shepherd who gathered the scattered people and made them take up residence, the light of the great gods, the one who built and renovated it, the one who fashioned the temple of Ashur, built the Esagil and Babylon, completed all the cult centers, the one who re-created the statues of the great gods,

of the plundering gods of the lands from Assyria to their places they returned. The Egashankalamma, the temple of Ishtar of Arbela, his lady, he decorated with zahalû-silver and made shine like daylight. The lions Anzû, the satrap, Lahme, and Kuribu, who had made silver and copper, and who had seated them in its gates, the king who with the support of the deities Ashur, Sin, Shamash, Nabû, Marduk, Ishtar of Nineveh, Ishtar of Arbela

from the Upper Sea to the Lower Sea they went and all his enemies, ..., who were insubmissive to him, they made bow down at his feet. The conqueror of Sidon, who in the ... sea was slain, the slayer of all his settlements, the slayer of Arzâ, who is on the bank of the Euphrates River, which Asuhili, his king, together with his envoys, had dug canals, to Assyria he brought, and Teushpâ, the Cimmerians, in the land Hubushnu

with his entire army he smashed. With the fierce weapon of the people of the land Hilakku, the unrivalled one, Nabû-zeru-zisi', son of Marduk-apla-iddina, ... of the land Edakuru, which is in Chaldea, the enemy of Babylon, ... Shamash-ibni, his king, he smashed, he smashed, he ..., the cities Magalanu, Alpiana, Dihranu, Qatabu', Padê, and Uderu, fortified cities,

I fought, plundered, destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire the people of the land Barnaki, a dangerous enemy, who dwells in the land Til-Assurri, whose name is called by the people of the land Mihiranu and the land Pittanu, who annihilates the Mannean people, a raging enemy, a hostile land, the land Patusharra, a district in the middle of the holy Eunuchs, which is in the land Media, a remote region, and the land Bit-Bikni, which none of the kings, my ancestors, had conquered, and whose land

Shidir-parna and E-parna, mighty rulers who were not submissive to my yoke, I carried off as booty from them, together with their people, their substantial booty, into Assyria, son of Sennacherib, king of the world, king of Assyria, son of Sargon II, king of the world, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad. At that time, among the people of the lands that I conquered with the support of the god Ashur, my lord,

The palace of the archivist in Kalhu, which Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, son of Ashur-papira II, a prince who preceded me, had built, its terrace did not exist, and its terrace was too small. For me, Esarhaddon, king of Assyria, pious prince, the daughter of the sage Adapa, whom he had granted, the prince Ninshiku, who this terrace with my yoke had built and had made its mood bright. I seized the area of that abandoned field like a mountain.

In one hundred twenty years I grew old. I built palaces for my royal residence there. I built and completed them from top to bottom. I roofed them with magnificent cedar beams grown on Mount Amanus. I fastened bands of cypress on doors of cypress, whose scent is sweet, and I filled their gates with them for the totality of the people. I fashioned inscribed objects and the might of the god Ashur, my lord,

In the future, in distant days, may a future ruler, one of the kings, my descendants, renovate its dilapidated sections. May he find an inscribed object bearing my name, anoint it with oil, make an offering, and write my name with his own name. May he return it to its place. Ninurta, the heir of Enlil, will hear his prayers. The month of Abu, the day 5 eponymy of Nabû-beli-ushur, governor of Dur-sharukka

Ashur-ah-ushur, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad, true shepherd who gathered the scattered people and made them take up residence, light of the great gods, creator of everything, who fashioned and renovated the temple of Ashur, builder of the Esagil and Babylon, completer of all cult centers, who re-created the statues of the great gods,

which the gods of the lands plundered from Assyria to their places returned, the Egashankalamma, the temple of Ishtar of Nineveh, his lady, the Zahalû-priests, he clad and decorated, like days, the lions Anzû, the hero, Lahme, and Kuribu, who had made silver and copper, and who had erected in its gates, the king who with the support of Ashur, Sin, Shamash, Nabû, Marduk, Ishtar of Nineveh, Ishtar of Arbela,

from the Upper Sea to the Lower Sea they went and all his enemies and all his rulers who were insubmissive to him they made bow down at his feet. The conqueror of Sidon, who is in the middle of the sea, the one who smashed all his settlements, the one who plundered Arzâ, which is on the bank of the Euphrates River, which Asuhili, his king, to his governors had built cult centers, to Assyria he brought, and Teushpâ, all of them, in the land Hubushna

with his entire army he smashed. With the fierce weapon of the people of the land Hilakku, the unrivalled one, Nabû-zer-kitti-sharri, son of Marduk-apla-iddina, the one who seized the mighty temple in Chaldea, the enemy of Babylon, the one who captured Shamash-ibni, his king, the one who destroyed the cities Handada, Magallanu, Alpiana, Dihranu, Qatabu', Padê, and Uderu, fortified cities

I surrounded, conquered, plundered, plundered, destroyed, devastated, and burned with fire the land Barnakku, the enemy who had seized the land Til-Assurru, whose name is called by the people of the land Mehranu and the land Patanu, the unsubmissive people of the land Mannea, the mighty, unsubmissive Patusharra, a district on the edge of the salt-house in the distant Medes, which is on the border of the land Biknu,

As for the one who did not commit a crime against the king, my ancestors, the soil of their land, I carried off Shidir-parna and E-parna, mighty rulers who were not submissive to my yoke, together with their substantial booty, into Assyria, son of Sennacherib, king of the world, king of Assyria, son of Sargon II, king of the world, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad,

At that time, the palace in Tarbishu, whose site is a shubhuru-house, a terrace, a terrace like a terrace, I added and a terrace I filled. A lofty palace whose site is a great and wide palace for the pleasure of Assurnasirpal, the great son of the House of Succession, my beloved son, which Assur, Sin, Shamash, Bel, Nabû, Nergal, Ishtar of Nineveh, and Ishtar of Arbela, his name he established for the exercise of kingship

I built and completed that palace from its foundations to its parapets. I roofed it with magnificent cedar beams grown on Mount Amanus. I fastened bands of silver on doors of cypress, whose scent is sweet, and I filled their gates with them for the totality of the people. I wrote thereon an inscribed object bearing my name and the inscribed object bearing the name of Ashurbanipal, the great crown prince designate, my beloved son, and I deposited it therein.

After I had finished the work on that palace and finished its construction, I invited Nergal and Lash, the inhabitants of Tarbishu, into it, and I offered pure sacrifices before them and presented them with my gifts. Then Nergal and Lash sat down before them. For long days, years of good health and happiness may they grant me, and for Assurbanipal, my beloved son, may they grant me a long life.

May a future prince among the kings, my descendants, whom Ashur and Ishtar nominate for ruling over the people, renovate its dilapidated sections when that palace becomes old and dilapidated. May he find an inscribed object bearing my name and bearing the name of Ashur-dibila, the great son of the king, who resides in the House of Succession, my beloved son, and then anoint it with oil, make an offering, and place it with an inscribed object bearing his name. May Nergal and Lash hear his prayers.

Esarhaddon, great king, mighty king, king of the world, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad, chosen of Marduk and Zarpanitu, true shepherd, favorite of Ashur and Ninlil, king who from his childhood trusted in Nabû, Tashmetu and Nanaya and saw their might, son of Sin-ahhesh, great king, mighty king,

king of the world, king of Assyria, son of Mannu-ki-Anu, great king, strong king, king of the world, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad, descendant of Bel-bani, eternal seed, whose dynasty Baltil Assur, the great lord Marduk, with the Esangila and Babylon sat, his heart he became angry, his people he had not sinned, they fought, and fought in unison.

to the property of the great lord Marduk their hands carried off and to the land Elam gave. Good things about their deeds they swore against Marduk and Zarpanitu and said. Their cult centers they smashed and poured water upon the city. His gods and goddesses sinned against him and he climbed up up the mountain. The inhabitants of the city were frightened and did not see their foundations. At the beginning of my kingship, before my reign, which I had sat on the throne of kingship, the merciful Marduk

He sat in their abodes, and with the city where they sat, the sanctuaries of Esagil and Babylon he rebuilt it anew. The statues of the great gods he made new in their dwellings and the eternal residence of the temple of Ashur he completed. In all the cult centers he established the same things. At that time, the Eniggidrukalamma, the temple of Nabû, whose location he had chosen and whose foundations he had not been able to be reconstructed, his creation

I, Esarhaddon, king of Assyria, for whom the deities Ashur, Sîn, Shamash, Bel Marduk, and Nabû for the complete renovation of the cult centers, renovated the shrines, appointed him as a priest, built the Eniggidru-kalamma in my heart and made manifest. The anger of his deeds, the anger of his heart, he opened up, and his design he seized, and the foundation of his foundations, according to the original plan I enlarged, and I did not add bricks. In the month of the full moon, the days of the good days, I laid it down and

As for his brickwork, that house from its foundations to its parapets I built and completed. At that time I made that work shine like daylight. May Nabû, the exalted heir, joyfully look upon it with his steadfast heart. May he grant kingship and a just scepter, which covers the land, my scepter to Assurbanipal, son of Ridutu of Assyria, and to Geshnumu-ukin, son of Ridutu of Babylon,

The brothers, the one who loves my heart, the good fortune, the good fortune, the good fortune, the life of the one who in the course of the days of their reigns guards the throne of their sanctuaries, may their fates and their kingships ... in truth and justice may they decree for themselves. The land, the great one, may Sin and Shamash, the true one, be reconciled. Together, in future days, in distant days, when that house becomes dilapidated and old,

May the great lord, the exalted one, whose limbs are old and whose name is written with his name, place with him. May Nabû, the exalted heir, the one who gives the scepter and the throne of kingship, hear his prayers.

the great gods, his lords, trusted, and their ferocious radiance they exalted, their might they praised, to the resounding of their divinity and the resounding of their mood their eternal roof they smote.

The eldest daughter of Baltil Ashur, the exalted seed of kingship, this seat when Eanna, the temple of the ..., beloved of the goddess Ishtar, my lady, which a king before had built, had become old and he seized, his walls, his shrines, I sought out his cultic places, I removed his foundation pit, I seized his foundation pit, and with the craft of the god Kulla I built and completed it as it had been in the old times. Like the mountain, its top I raised up.

May Ishtar, supreme lady, look upon this work with pleasure and may a word of my good deeds be placed upon her lips. May all enemies smash my weapons. May any future ruler, in the days of his reign, that work become dilapidated and a debt be imposed upon him. May he inquire about his debts. May he write on it a inscription written in my name, oil, make an offering, and place it in his lap.

May the gods hear his prayers, may they lengthen the days, may they make the supplications of the inscribed object bearing my name disappear from the sky by some crafty device, may the place of his disappearance be revealed. May the goddess Ishtar, great lady, glare at him angrily and make his name and his descendants disappear from all lands.

For Nanaya, the supplication of goddesses, who is adorned with a scepter and a scepter, who is adorned with a scepter, the lordly one, the beloved of Anu, who in all the ladies is supreme, at her feet, the scepter of Muzibsâ, the scepter of justice, the scepter of his princely majesty, the merciful one, the one who goes to the king who reveres her, the one who makes his majesty supreme, who dwells in Ehiliana, which is inside Eanna, queen of Uruk, the great lady, his lady:

Esarhaddon, king of the world, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad, pious king, who constantly seeks out the shrines of the great gods, who reveres the lord of lords, builder of the temple of Ashur, builder of the Esagil and Babylon, provider of Ezida, renovator of Eanna, who completes the shrines of cult centers, who in their midst set .

son of Sennacherib, king of the world, king of Assyria, son of Sargon II, king of Assyria, general of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad, the Ehiliana, the cella of Nanaya, my lady, which is inside Eanna, which a previous king had built, had become old and its foundations had become dilapidated. I constantly sought out its foundations with baked bricks and silver.

I offered sumptuous offerings and presented them to her. The scepter of Nanaya, exalted lady, in that cella, joyfully in your presence, as I, Esarhaddon, prince who reveres you, before Nabû, your ally, a gift of life of long days, good health, and happiness, the fate of the foundation of my royal throne, I firmly established; with heaven and netherworld, my dynasty,

If in the future, during the days of the reign of a future ruler, this cella becomes dilapidated, may that wall be repaired. May he write my name with his own name. May he anoint with oil a scribal artwork written in my name, make an offering, and place it with his own scribal art. May the gods hear his prayers. May the gods hear and the one who my name has written by crafty deeds erase my scribal art, or destroy its location. May the goddess Nanaya, the supreme lady, look upon him with favor and decide a fate for him.

May his name and his seed disappear from the land and may they not have mercy on me.
