1den-líl-e-ne “the Enlil (circle of) gods”: Exs. 2, 4, 6 have respectively d50-e-ne, ⸢d50-e-ne⸣, and d⸢50-e⸣-n[e].

2Contra C.J. Gadd (UET 1 p. 55 sub no. 174), exs. 2, 4, 6 do not omit line 7; see the commentary of Asb. 2010. Unlike Asb. 2010–2015, we have an abstract noun (nam-den-líl-lá-a-ni, “his Enlilship” or “his position as chief deity”) here rather than the name of a deity.
