{ For seven years, in my city there has been no battle and combat, and death (?) has not been imminent (?) } { (1 ms. has instead:) For five years, in my city we have not been extinguished (?) by battle, not oppressed by death }. In the open country the lion { does not diminish } { (1 ms. has instead:) …… } devouring men. I am { treated } { (1 ms. has instead:) I have been bound (?) } like one who does not know how to entreat a god fervently. I serve the great gods daily with prayers, and my fervent entreaties are sublime.
