(7b) (As for) Aḫūnu of (Bīt-)Adini (lit. “son of Adinu”), who had been swaggering about with might and main since (the days of) the kings, my ancestors, (and) who had withheld the tribute and tax due to (the god) Aššur, my lord, at the beginning of my reign (10) I surrounded the city Tīl-Barsip, his royal city, (and) fought my way inside his city (lit. “I did battle in his city”). He became afraid in the face of the flash of my mighty weapons, abandoned his city, and crossed the Euphrates River, in order to save [his (own)] life. (15) He made as his stronghold Mount Šītamrat, a mountain peak on the bank of the Euphrates River, (which) is suspended from heaven like a cloud. [In] a second year, I went after him. I surrounded th(at) mountain peak (and) fought my way into its midst. Fear of the brilliance of (the god) Aššur, my lord, overwhelmed them. I removed them, brought them across the Euphrates River, and counted them as people of my land.
