Shalmaneser I 10

(1) Shalmaneser (I), appointee of the god Enlil, vice-regent of (the god) Aššur, son of Adad-nārārī (I), vice-regent of (the god) Aššur, son of Arik-dīn-ili, (who was) also vice-regent of (the god) Aššur.

(5) At that time, (as for) the palace complex, which Aššur-nārārī (I), the vice-regent of (the god) Aššur, the son of Išme-Dagān (II), (who was) also the vice-regent of (the god) Aššur, my ancestor, had previously built, the room [...] ... of that palace had become dilapidated [and] I cleared away their dilapidated section(s). I built (them) fro[m] their foundations to their crenellations. Moreover, I deposited my commemorative inscriptions (therein).

(16) In the future, may a [future] ruler, [when those ... become dilapidated], renova[te their dilapidated section(s)] (and) return my [commemorative inscrip]tions to their places. The god Aššur will (then) listen to his prayers.

(22b) (As for) the one who removes my inscriptions and my name, may (the god) Aššur, my lord, overthrow his kingship (and) afflict his land with want.

(28) Month of the god Sin, tenth day, eponymy of Shalmaneser (I).
