For Summer founding towns and villages (establishing Sumer),

large turnips, large …… cut down with the knife (?), long leeks —
Winter himself brought the tribute he had collected.
105-111 Summer and Winter set about organizing the animals and offerings for E-namtila, the house of Enlil.
The two of them, like huge butting bulls, reared themselves triumphantly.
But Winter, because his limbs had grown tired from the grain grown heavy in the furrows,
and the wheat and the emmer which he had been watering by hand,
turned away as from an enemy and would not draw near.
112-120 Consequently Winter was overcome by anger and he started a quarrel with Summer:
“Summer, my brother, you should not praise yourself; whatever harvest produce you bring as gifts
to the palace has not been made by your toil: you should not brag.
As if you were the one who had done the hard work, as if you had done the farming,
as if you had taken care of irrigation control during the spring floods,
as if you had brought forth the …… grain in the arable tracts with the dew from heaven —
how much through my toil is it that you enter the palace!
121-143 “Whatever animals, cattle and sheep of the hill, you bring to my …….

Your gardener …… the palace …….
Honey and wine in the orchard …….

(Anunnaki giant alien god Nannar with his million cows in pens at Ur)
144-152 “After you have threshed it at your threshing floor, and have …… the cattle’s dung,

…… the animals, the storehouses and their contents.
After your houses and farmsteads …… sheep, …… from your cattle,
after …… their reed-beds, after …… green briars and cut …… thorns, …… storehouse
…… the dung of unyoked oxen — the slave Summer,
the duly-appointed laborer who will never rest from his toil,
a hired man who has to return to the fields of the Land for his own sustenance!”
153-156 On that day Winter taunted Summer.
Summer, the hero whom one does not challenge, searched for rude insults.
He was confident in himself, considering the harvest time, and turned aside.
Like a great bull eating rich grass, he raised his head.
157-163 Next, Summer replied to Winter:
“Winter, you may have to stay by the side of the oven, ……;
but you should not launch such serious insults against someone who does not lead a sedentary (?) life.
…… for the work of tilling the Land, with its difficulties,
you do not raise a cry in the gune (?) cult center, you do not look after the house.
(alien Anunnaki Goddess of Scribes Nisaba, Geshtinanna, & unidentified)

when the bowls lie placed, when the fishing place has been prepared,
(Anunnaki alien gods Enlil, Inanna & Utu, Enki separated the edible fish, & two-faced god Isumud)
when the fish have been piled up, I am father Enlil‘s great comptroller.
I harrow the fields into fruitful acres.
When the oxen have stopped working the fields,
when you have concentrated your efforts on the damp areas and given the sign for the field work,
I do not work for you in the large arable tracts and fruitful acres early in the season.
If the spring grain bends its neck in the hollow of the furrows, no one provides a fence.
Whatever your farmer brings to the oxen, he will not make the oxen angry with me.
Winter …… in the uplands …….
The man of the bedroom …….”
185-188 Then Summer taunted Winter:
“Wise ……, serious insults ……, not …….”
189-199 Thereupon Winter replied to Summer:
“Summer, the donkey grazing on grass at the harvest ground and braying noisily,
the mule ……, the harvest ox chafing its neck in the pegs and tossing its head in the lead rope,
the innkeeper going to the harvest ground carrying a bowl in his hands,
the flour …… playing ……, the bragging fieldworker who does not know the extent of the field —
Summer, my brother, after you have gone out boasting about my toil,

(all established by alien Anunnaki giants prior to “modern man”)
and the granaries are packed full, when you bring the surplus,

The building supervisor …… the …… of the roofs.
People …… boots and shoes ……. (all 1st in Sumer / “Eden”)
216-224 “Summer, my brother, as long as you go with my term of duty,
great and small order you about and your string is not cut.
Although you have gathered all things in the Land and filled the storehouses,
in all my strength I am their owner when your limbs become tired.
When the clouds have brought down the abundance of heaven,
and the water of the first greening has descended from the hills,
and the new grain has been put in the granary to be added to the old grain,
the good farmer, having seen to his fields, shouts for joy,
the carrier donkeys stand ready and he sets out confidently for the city.
225-235 “My brother, when you have put the holy plow away in the barn,
the storehouse, everything you have gathered, you make a roar like fire.
You sit down to plentiful food and drink.
You obtain the choicest goods from the Land.

For my king named by Nanna (Nannar), the son of Enlil,

when you have taken care of the bardul garment and the nijlam garment,
when you have made a perfect feast for the gods,
(Anunnaki alien giants upon animal symbols & zodiac signs)
when the Anuna (alien Anunnaki) have placed garments on their holy bodies,
(Enlil & Anunnaki King father Anu, wearing the crown of planet Nibiru & colonies)
in his E-namtila, the holy abode of kingship founded by An (Anu),
at that place of content they prepare a choice banquet.
236-247 “When the cem and ala drums, …… and other instruments play together for him,
he passes the time with your heart-gladdening tigi and zamzam instruments.
But it is I who have made the wine plentiful and made much to eat and drink.

How can you compare yourself to me while seeking a roof under which to rest?”
259-263 For a second time Winter had taunted Summer.
(Enki, Anu in his sky-disc above, Enlil, & their winged pilots on each end)
Summer, the heroic son of Enlil, was convinced of his own strong power
and consequently trusted in himself.
He acted as if in a friendly manner to the insults that Winter had spoken to him.
264-273 Then Summer replied to Winter:
“Winter, you should not boast about your superior strength
after you have explained the grounds for your boasting.
I shall speak about your abode in the city which I shall …….
You seem like a man of office but you are an inept one.
Your straw bundles are for the oven-side, hearth and kiln.
Like a herdsman or shepherd encumbered by sheep and lambs,
helpless people run like sheep from oven-side to kiln, and from kiln to oven-side, in the face of you (?).
In sunshine …… you reach decisions, but now in the city people’s teeth chatter because of you.
274-282 “When the day is half done, nobody walks about in the streets.
The servant, basking by the side of the oven, is in the house until sunset.
(Anunnaki daughter to Enki, goddess Ninsikila helping out on Earth Colony)

Don’t speak with a gaping mouth of your superior strength — I will make known its shape and essence.”
283-287 For a second time Summer had taunted Winter.
(Enlil‘s Earth Colony Command Central)
On that day of the E-kur’s (Enlil‘s temple – residence) festival and Sumer’s plenty,
the two of them stretched (?) their legs and stood combatively.
Summer and Winter, like great bulls about to tear at each others horns,
bent forward like wild bulls in the main courtyard and took up their positions.
288-296 Like a great bull Winter raised his head to speak:
“Father Enlil, you gave me control of irrigation; you brought plentiful water.
I made one meadow adjacent to another and I heaped high the granaries.
The grain became thick in the furrows.
(Ninlil shared equal authority with spouse Enlil on Earth Colony)
Ezina (Ninlil, Grain Goddess, Nisaba‘s daughter) came forth in splendor like a beautiful maiden.
Summer, a bragging field-administrator who does not know the extent of the field,
…… my thighs grown tired from toil.
…… tribute has been produced for the king’s palace.
Winter admires the heart of your …… in words.”
297-303 Summer pondered everything in his head and calmed down.
(Enlil, Anu‘s son & heir, father to Ninurta & Adad)
Summer spoke respectfully to Enlil:
“Enlil, your verdict is highly valued, your holy word is an exalted word.
The verdict you pronounce is one which cannot be altered — who can change it?
There was quarreling of brother with brother but now there is harmony.
For as long as you are occupying the palace, the people will express awe.
When it is your season, far be it from me to humiliate you — in fact I shall praise you.”
304-309 Enlil answered Summer and Winter:
“Winter is controller of the life-giving waters of all the lands – the farmer of the gods produces everything.
Summer, my son, how can you compare yourself to your brother Winter?”
The import of the exalted word Enlil speaks is artfully wrought,
the verdict he pronounces is one which cannot be altered — who can change it?
310-315 Summer bowed to Winter and offered him a prayer.
(Anunnaki giant gods drinking on land & sea)
In his house he prepared emmer-beer and wine.
At its side they spend the day at a succulent banquet.
Summer presents Winter with gold, silver and lapis lazuli.
They pour out brotherhood and friendship like best oil.
By bringing sweet words to the quarrel (?) they have achieved harmony with each other.
316-318 In the dispute between Summer and Winter,
Winter, the faithful farmer of Enlil (NInurta), was superior to Summer —
(Enlil‘s great mountain / residence / Command Post in Nippur)
praise be to the Great Mountain, father Enlil!
