Sapiku, Aqaba, La-baši, Zaqiru, and Bel-le'i, a total of five men from Darati, have spoken thus:

"We bear the responsibility for Darati. We shall bring Sa'eru and whatever men are loyal to him into the city by means of tunnels, capture Darati and give it to Marduk-šarru-uṣur. Let them work on the houses. At a house which lends itself to the work we will cut a tunnel inside, and we shall bring in the men through it. They should work on (the houses of) Eriba and Sîn-duru-uṣur.

"After one of them has by studied words entered Darati, we shall bring the men in through the tunnels and capture the city. As to one of them who lends himself to the work, he should go and enter Darati. Let Marduk-šarru-uṣur come at late night and surround the wing of Atâ."

He says there are no men who are not loyal to Sa'eru in Sapiku's house. He says Merodach-Baladan will not come to their help.

"I have repeatedly gone to Merodach-Baladan, saying: 'Let your horses come, and let them be a fort for us.' He has not agreed, but said: 'If it is your heart('s desire), oblige!'"
