Lipit-Eštar, Enlil's son, you have made every mouth speak of your righteousness. { The tablets will forever speak your praise } { (1 ms. has instead:) May your praise never disappear from the tablets } in the e-dub-ba-a. May the scribes …… and glorify you greatly! May eulogies of you never cease in the e-dub-ba-a! Perfect shepherd, youthful son of Enlil, Lipit-Eštar, be praised!
