Šamaš-reša-uṣur 4

(Side_A 1) I, Šamaš-rēša-uṣur, governor of the land of Sūḫu and [the land of Mari], brought down [from] Aššur [the bees which gather honey — which] none from among my forefathers [had seen or brought down to the land of Sūḫu] — and [I established them] in the gardens [of the town Āl-gabbāri-bānî]. They (now) collect [honey and wax (there).

(Side_A 4b) I know how (to separate)] honey [and wax by] melting (the combs) [and (my) gardeners] (also) know how (to do it).

(Side_A 5b) Anyone in the future who comes forward [should ask the elders of his land: “Is it true that Šamaš-rēša-uṣur], the governor of the land of Sūḫu, [introduced honey]-bees [into the land of Sūḫu?]”
