Who like you is a god rising in glory, whose name reaches as far as the limits of heaven? You have given …… to the just youth, who was called from among the widespread people, engendered by the Great Mountain -- Ur-Ninurta, …… joy, to whom you have spoken favourably. On the dais …… you have bestowed on him a lapis lazuli ……. You have added years of joy to Ur-Ninurta's reign. You have built his city amid plenty, a habitation where the people are settled. May the black-headed direct their gaze at you as at the rising Utu. When you have given him the weapon that …… the hostile foreign lands, that makes the earth tremble, ……, you will completely devastate the populations that are disobedient to him. Uta-ulu, let Ur-Ninurta grasp (?) it in his hand.
