Because of { enemy troops } { (1 ms. has instead:) the enemy }, { I, the king, have sent you a letter } { (1 ms. has instead:) I have sent a letter }. Atta-mannum, who pleases his lord, is (?) a better { servant to his lord } { (1 ms. has instead:) man } than you! Why is it that { you have not been avenging your lord, and not keeping me informed } { (1 ms. has instead:) while I (?) have kept the soldiers loyal (?), you have not stationed them among those people }? { (1 ms. adds:) So now you are to station the troops there. }
