e-li ep?-še?-ti an-na?-[a]-ti e-gug lìb-bi iṣ-ṣa-ru-uḫ [ka-bat-ti]1

(r 1) My heart became enraged about the[s]e deeds (and) [my temper] turned hot. [I] mustered my troops (and) set ou[t on the road] against Ummanaldašu (Ḫumban-ḫaltaš III), the king of the land Elam. [In] the course of my campaign, [I conquered] the city Bīt-Imbî, a city upon which the land Elam relied. [(As for) the pe]ople living inside it, who had not come out and inquired about the well-being of [my] royal majes[ty, I killed (them)]. I cut off their [he]ads, sliced off [th]eir lip[s], (and) [took (them) to Assyria] to be a spectacle for the people of m[y] land.

1e-li ep?-še?-ti an-na?-[a]-ti “about the[s]e deeds”: The phrase e-li ep-še-e-ti an-na-a-ti always appears before lìb-bi i-gu-ug-(ma) iṣ-ṣa-ru-uḫ ka-bat-ti “My heart became enraged (and) my temper turned hot” in the corpus of Ashurbanipal’s inscriptions. This phrase is assumed here, although it is difficult to see how the traces of the tablet fit a few of these signs.

2There is blank space between URU “city” and ú-še-ṣa-am-ma “I brought him out of” where the scribe could have written šu-a-tu “that,” which appears in text no. 9 (Prism F) iii 55.

3There is space in this break for about five to seven signs, which provides enough room for the mention of an additional god or gods.
