His slave Enkidu answered him: "My lord, if today you are going to set off into the mountains, Utu should know about it from us. { (1 ms. adds:) If you are going to to set off into the Mountains of Cedar-felling, Utu should know about it from us. } Utu, youthful Utu, should know about it from us. A decision that concerns the mountains is Utu's business. A decision that concerns the Mountains of Cedar-felling is the business of youthful Utu. Utu should know about it from us."
