1[ú-šá]-⸢ti⸣-ru ši-mat-⸢su⸣ “whose lot [he made surpas]sing”: No parallels of this expression are known in other Neo-Babylonian royal inscriptions, but ušātirū nabnīti “they made my form surpassing” possibly appears in two inscriptions of the Assyrian king Sîn-šarru-iškun (text no. 1 line 9 and text no. 6 line 10); see respectively http://oracc.org/rinap/Q003862/ and http://oracc.org/rinap/Q003867/ [2020].

2ka-la mi-⸢im-ma⸣ “everything there is”: This expression is also attested in an inscription of Sîn-šarru-iškun (text no. 18 line 4); see http://oracc.org/rinap/Q003879/ [2020].

3e-ek-du-ti^* “wild”: The cylinder has e-ek-du-MI. The term ekdu is usually attested in Neo-Babylonian royal inscriptions in connection with copper(-plated) statues of wild bulls (rīmu) set up in gateways of temples.

4After mukannišat (“the one who subdues”), one expects za-i-ri or za-ʾi-i-ri (“enemies”).

5re-é-⸢ú-um⸣ ki-i-ni “true shepherd”: This epithet is rarely attested in extant Neo-Babylonian royal inscriptions (for example, Nabopolassar 4 i 5), but is frequently found in Neo-Assyrian royal inscriptions.
