To the king, my lord: your servant Adad-issiya. Good health to the king, my lord!

I se[n]t two cavalry cohort commanders to Sanha and Ulušia to the king's subjects who are there. They went and saw them: the equipment (they had received) there and the barley rations specified in their tablet were there.

They warned them, and their guard is very strong. The king, my lord, can be glad.

The king, my lord, knows that Kubaba-ila'i masters the language. I sent him to Tikriš, and he gave us this detailed report. We are herewith sending it to the king, my lord.

All the time I have been encamped on the Mannean border, the son of the widow has been encamped opposite me on his side of the border.

The very day that Nergal-belu-uṣur came here ordering me to depart and I entered the Mannean territory, I sent my 'third man' to him, saying: "Set out!" He said he was sick. I said: "Let your son come!" He said: "He is sick too; I shall send my brother with my troops."

I sent the 'third man,' but he (i.e., this brother) has not yet showed up. The rest of the troops of the city lords are with me.
