My king turned to the šegšeg stone, he addressed the engen and ezinum stones. For the ug-gun, the ḫem, the madanum, the saĝgirmud, the …… and the mursuḫ stones. Ninurta son of Enlil fixed their destiny: (2 lines unclear) "with ribs drawn in, balancing on the haunches, heart elated, legs bent like a bear, ……: I shall come to you; now, being an ally, you come forward from all of them; who shall extend the hand to them? You were the club, you stood as the doorway." (3 lines unclear)"In the Land, the champion shall always look (?) with favour on you."
