Gudea, the ruler in charge of building the house, the ruler of Lagac, presented it with the chariot "It makes the mountains bow down", which carries awesome radiance and on which great fearsomeness rides and with its donkey stallion, Ud-gu-dugduga, to serve before it; with the seven-headed mace, the fierce battle weapon, the weapon unbearable both for the North and for the South, with a battle cudgel, with the mitum mace, with the lion-headed weapon made from nir stone, which never turns back before the highlands, with dagger blades, with nine standards, with the "strength of heroism", with his bow which twangs like a mec forest, with his angry arrows which whizz like lightning flashes in battle, and with his quiver, which is like a lion, a pirij lion, or a fierce snake sticking out its tongue -- strengths of battle imbued with the power of kingship.
