When Eanna, the temple of highest rank, beloved of the goddess Ištar, my lady,
which a previous king had built, became old and its walls buckled,
I sought its (original) emplacement, removed its dilapidated parts, (and) surveyed its (entire) foundation.
(Ningishzidda laid foundation pegs to the world’s greatest monuments)
I completely (re)built (it) with the work of the god Kulla (Ningishzidda)
according to its ancient specifications (and) raised its top (as high) as a mountain.
May the goddess Ištar, supreme lady, look upon this work with pleasure
and may a good word for me be set upon her lips!
May she make my weapons prevail over all (my) enemies!
If at any time in the future, during the days of the reign of some future ruler,
this work falls into disrepair and becomes dilapidated,
may (that ruler) seek out its (original) emplacement (and) repair its dilapidated parts!
May he anoint an inscription written in my name with oil, make an offering, (and) set (it) back in its place!
The gods will (then) hear his prayers.
He will lengthen (his) days (and) enlarge (his) family.
(But as for) the one who by some crafty device destroys an inscription written in my name or changes its position,
(Goddess of War Inanna, her 8-pointed star symbol above her head, standing upon her zodiac symbol Leo)
may the goddess Ištar, great lady, glare at him angrily
and make his name (and) his descendant(s) disappear from every land!
