(8) At [the beginning of] my [king]ship, when the deities Aššur, Bēl (Marduk), Nabû, (and) [Ištar] gladly placed me (10) on the th[rone of the fa]ther who had engendered me, in place of an empty lot I built (and) completed the temple of the god Nabû [that is] i[nsi]de Baltil (Aššur), which had not been created (lit: “born”) from distant days, from its foundations to its crenellations.
