1This line, or line 4´, was overlooked in the RINAP 4 print edition (as well as in Borger, Asarh.). Obv. 5´–10´ = obv. 4´–9´ of the old edition.
2The gap appears to be a few lines shorter than what is suggested in RINAP 4 (ca. 17 lines). Because the exact number of lines cannot be determined with absolute certainty, it is best to renumber the preserved lines, rather than giving contiguous line numbers. Therefore, obv. 27´–44´ of the print edition correspond to obv. 1´´–18´´ of the revised edition.
