(ii 2) Just like him (Ummanigaš), he (Tammarītu) accepted bribes fro[m the hands of Šamaš-šuma-ukīn, did not enquire about the well-being of my royal majesty, (and) went] to the aid of Šamaš-šu[ma-ukīn, (my) unfaithful brother, (ii 5) to figh]t [with my] troops. [As a result of the supplications that I had addressed to (the god) Aššur and the goddess Ištar],

1The reconstruction of this line tentatively follows the reading of the prism inscriptions; see, for example, text no. 3 (Prism B) vii 32b–33a. However, the line seems a bit too long unless the ú-šib ina GIŠ.GU.ZA KUR.ELAM.MA.KI “sat on the throne of the land Elam” was crammed in more tightly or the final element should instead be restored with something shorter, such as ina GIŠ.GU.ZA-šú “on his throne.”
