"He made { the lyre, the alĝar instrument, the balaĝ drum with the drumsticks } { (some mss. have instead:) the lyre, the alĝar instrument, the balaĝ drum of your sur priests } { (1 ms. has instead:) your lyre and alĝar instrument, the balaĝ drum with the drumsticks } { (1 ms. has instead:) the lyre, the alĝar instrument, the balaĝ drum and even the plectrum (?) }, the ḫarḫar, the sabitum, and the …… miritum instruments offer their best for his holy temple. The …… resounded by themselves with a sweet sound. The holy alĝar instrument of Enki played for him on his own and seven { singers sang } { (some mss. have instead:) tigi drums resounded. }"
