For the goddess Nanāya, queen of Uruk, great lady, his lady:

Esarhaddon, king of Assyria, governor of Babylon, king of the land of Sumer and Akkad; who is assiduous toward the sanctuaries of the great gods; the one who (re)constructed the temple of the god Aššur, (re)built Esagil and Babylon, (5) renovated Eanna, completed the sanctuaries of all of the cult centers, (and) constantly established appropriate procedures in them; the one who conquered from the Upper Sea to the Lower Sea (and) the one who made all rulers submissive to him; son of Sennacherib, king of Assyria; descendant of Sargon (II), king of Assyria, governor of Babylon, (and) king of the land of Sumer and Akkad —

Eḫiliana (“House, Luxuriance of Heaven”), the cella of the goddess Nanāya, my lady, which Nazi-Maruttaš, king of Babylon, had built, (and which) Erība-Marduk, king of Babylon, had shored up, became old and dilapidated. (15) I sought its (original) emplacement (and) repaired its dilapidated parts with baked bricks from a (ritually) pure kiln. I grasped the hands of the goddess Nanāya, my lady, brought (her) inside, (and) caused (her) to take up residence (there) forever.

When the goddess Nanāya looks upon this work with pleasure, may a good word for me — Esarhaddon, king of Assyria (and) king of Babylon — be set upon her lips before the god Nabû, my lord!

(But as for) the one who erases my inscribed name by some crafty device, destroys my (royal) inscription, or changes its position, may the goddess Nanāya glare at him angrily and make his name (and) his descendant(s) disappear!
