11	[i]-⸢nu⸣-me	(1) When Puzur-Sîn, vice-regent of the god Aššur, son of Aššur-bēl-šamê, destroyed the evil of Asīnum, offspring of Šamšī-[Adad (I)], who was ... of the city Aššur, and instituted proper rule for the city Aššur, (at that time), [I (Puzur-Sîn) removed] ... a foreign plague, (who was) not of the flesh of [the city] Aššur.

[with] his pure hands and I, by the command of (the god) Aššur himself, my lord, destroyed that improper thing that he had worked on, (specially) the wall and palace of Šamšī-Adad (I), his grandfather, (who was) a foreign plague (and) not of the flesh of the city Aššur, (and) who had destroyed the shrines of the city Aš[šur a]nd had built [th]at ... palace. Then, I built a wall from the façade of the Ilula Gate to the residence, (a structure) which no (other) king had built before.

1Grayson, ARRIM 3, p. 14: "Perhaps palâm rediʾam should be read in line 9, redû being an adjectival form with the same meaning as rīdu/riddu '(good) conduct' (see von Soden, AHw p.981)."

2Grayson, ARRIM 3, p. 14: "Line 11 seems to contain a proper name followed by šumšu 'his/its name' but the line is obscure."

3For šibṭu, see note to line 29.

4Grayson, ARRIM 3, p. 14: "ll. 15-18: This passage is badly broken so that the reading and interpretation are very uncertain. The god Aššur seems to be the subject (15) and line 18 certainly contains a verb with a third singular suffix which can only refer to Asīnum (or his relative). The second sign seems to be ZA; there is not enough room for a larger sign, not even a NA."

5Grayson, ARRIM 3, p. 14: "1 9-29 The syntax of this section is doubtful. Line 19 seems to be resumed by qāt uppišu in line 21 with ina qibīt ᵈaššurma bēlīya being an anacoluthic interjection. But the construction is curious and the -ma a bit strange. Equally odd is line 22 which I have taken as construct to line 23. The last word in line 24 is doubtful since I know no parallel (other than line 12 above) for šibṭu being used of a person; but the phrase šibṭi aḫiʾāti appears in Walker, CT 51 no. 142: 7 (incantation)."

6Grayson, ARRIM 3, p. 14: "'his city lord' does not, I believe, refer to Aššur (cf. Larsen, City-State p.148 n.125). The scribe assumes that the future desecrator will be a foreigner and therefore wants both Aššur and the foreigner's own god to curse him."
