        “Curuppag gave instructions to his son;

        Curuppag, the son of Ubara-Tutu

        gave instructions to his son Zi-ud-sura (Noah):

         ‘My son, let me give you instructions: you should pay attention!

         Zi-ud-sura, let me speak a word to you:’…”

        “A second time, Curuppag gave instructions to his son.

         Curuppag, the son of Ubara-Tutu gave instructions to his son Zi-ud-sura:

         ‘My son, let me give you instructions: you should pay attention!

         Zi-ud-sura, let me speak a word to you: you should pay attention!

         Do not neglect my instructions!

         Do not transgress the words I speak!

         (1 ms. adds the line: The instructions of an old man are precious;

           you should comply with them!)’…”

         “These are the instructions given by Curuppag, the son of Ubara-Tutu.

           Praise be to the lady who completed the great tablets, the maiden Nisaba,

         that Curuppag, the son of Ubara-Tutu gave his instructions!…”
