(1) I, Ashurbanipal, king of the world, king of Assyria — while (carrying out) [my princely] spor[t], they had [a fi]erce [lion] that was born in the steppe (lit. “of its plain”) brought out of a cage and, while on foot, I pierced (it) three times with arrow(s) [(but)] its life did not come to an end. Through the command of the god Palil, the king of the steppe who had generously gr<anted> me power (and) vir[ilit]y, I subsequently stabbed it with my iron belt-dagger [(and)] it laid down (its) life.

1ú-šat-<li-ma>-⸢an-ni⸣ “he had gr<anted> me”: According to W. Boutcher’s drawing (Or. Dr. 5 no. 4), the LI and MA signs would have appeared where the lion’s head protrudes into the epigraph. The scribe responsible for writing out the epigraph appears to have omitted those two signs since he did not have sufficient space to write out li-ma-an-ni at the end of the line.
