47 I received; the entire land under a Prefect I placed; horses,
     silver, gold, wheat, barley, submission, I imposed upon
     them
48 from the city of Tuklat-assur-azbat I withdrew; the land
     of Nispi accepted my yoke; I went down all night; to cities
     of remote site in the midst of Nispi
49 which Zab-yav had established as his stronghold I went,
     took the city of Birutu and consigned it to the flames. 
     In the eponym of Damiktiya-tuklat, when I was stationed
     at Nineveh, they brough me news[7]
50 that Amaka, and Arastua withheld the tribute and vassalage
     due to Assur my Lord.  In honor of Assur mighty
     Lord and Merodach the great going before me,
51 on the first of May[8] I prepared for the third time an
     expedition against Zamua:  my fighting men[9] before the
     many chariots I did not consider:  from Kalzi I withdrew;
     the lower Zab
52 I passed; to the vicinity of Babite I proceeded; the river
     Radanu at the foot of the mountains of Zima, my birthplace,
     I approached; oxen,
53 sheep, goats, as the tribute of Dagara I received:  near
     Zimaki I added my strong chariots and battering rams as
     chief of warlike implements to my magazines; by night
54 and daybreak I went down; the Turnat in rafts I crossed;
     to Amali the strong city of Arastu I approached;
55 with vigorous assault the city I besieged and took; 800
     of their fighting men I destroyed by my weapons; I filled
     the streets of their city with their corpses;
56 their many houses I burned; many soldiers I took alive;
     their spoil in abundance I carried off; the city I overthrew
     razed and burnt with fire; the city Khudun
57 and 20 cities in its environs I took; their soldiers I slew;
     their booty in cattle and sheep I carried off; their cities I
     overthrew razed and burned; their boys
58 their maidens I dishonored; the city of Kisirtu a fortified
     city of Zabini with 10 neighboring cities I took; their soldiers
     I slew; their spoil
59 I carried off; the cities of Barai and Kirtiara, Bunisai together
     with the province of Khasmar I overthrew razed and
     burned with fire;
60 I reduced the boundaries to a heap, and then from the
     cities of Arastua I withdrew:  to the neighborhood of the
     territory of Laara and Bidirgi, rugged land, which for the
     passage
61 of chariots and an army was not adapted, I passed; to the
     royal city Zamri of Amika of Zamua I drew near; Amika
     from before the mighty prowess of my formidable attack
62 fled in fear and took refuge on a hill difficult of access:  I
     brought forth the treasures of his palace and his chariot;
     from Zamri I withdrew and passed the river Lallu and to
     the mountains of Etini,
63 difficult ground, unfit for the passage of chariots
