[If Mars] becomes visible in Tammuz (IV): the cemetery of the warriors will enlarge.

[Mars] is said to (portend) death.

[If Ma]rs stands in the east: attack of Subartu and the Kassites against the land.

[If] Mars rises scintillating and its radiance is yellow: the king of Elam will die.

If Nergal in his appearance is very small and white, and scintillates very much like the fixed stars: he will have mercy on Akkad; the force of my troops will go and defeat the enemy troops, it will conquer the land for which it strives; the enemy troops will not (be able to) stand in the face of my troops; the cattle of Akkad will lie in the steppe undisturbed; sesame (and) dates will prosper.

If a planet comes near the Anzu star: horses will die.

It did not come near, it is not approaching.

If Mars becomes faint, it is good; if it becomes bright, misfortune.

If Mars goes behind Šulpa'e: this year is good.
