1The damaged text is restored from text no. 49 rev. 25.

2KUR.sa-[qu-ur-ri] “Mount Sa[qurri]”: The reading and restoration are based on text no. 42 line 19´ and text no. 48 line 24´. Lines 3´–8´a contain a version of the Samsi episode. For the restoration of damaged text, see the on-page note to text no. 42 line 19´.

3Possibly restore e-kim (“I took away”) at the end of the line.

4The relative clause at the beginning of the line is restored from context.

5Rawlinson’s copy begins here. The restorations at the beginning of the line are based on text no. 49 rev. 22. .ERIM “soldier”: So Rawlinson, Notebook 1; Layard, MS A has .ERIM and Layard, ICC erroneously has ra.

6For the restorations, see text no. 42 lines 27´–33´.

7URU.ḫa-a-a-[ap-pa-a-a] “[people of] the city Ḫaya[ppa]”: So Rawlinson, Notebook 1; Layard, MS A and Layard, ICC both have URU.ḫa-x-a-[...].

8.i-: So Layard, MS A; Rawlinson, Notebook 1 has .ia-.

9ma-da-ta-šú-nu “their payment”: Rawlinson, Notebook 1 omits ma.

10Only Layard, MS A has A É?.GAL x [...] AD x at the end of line 15´. N. Naʾaman (NABU 1998 p. 7) restores the end of line 15´ and the beginning of line 16´ as [qe]-reb É.GAL ú-[... msi-ru]-at-ti [KUR.mu-ʾu-na-a-a ù] mi-di-bi-ʾi-i-lu a-na .-[pu]-ti <ina> UGU [x x KUR.mu-uṣ]-ri ap-qid “... within the palace. I appointed [Siru]att[i the Meʾunite and] Idibiʾilu as ‘su[pervis]ors’ over [the entrance of Egypt].”

11: So Rawlinson, Notebook 1; the sign is missing in Layard, MS A. x: So Layard, MS A; the sign is missing in Rawlinson, Notebook 1. -ri: Faint traces of the sign appear only in Layard, MS A.

12For the restoration of damaged text, see text no. 42 lines 15´–17´. For a study of the campaigns against Israel, see Tadmor, Tigl. III pp. 279–282 (Supplementary Study G).

13-ḫa: Faint traces of the sign appear only in Layard, MS A.
