41 I transported into it 154 talents 26 minas 10 drachms of
    gold russu;[36] 1804 talents 20 minas of silver;[37] ivory,
    a great deal of copper, iron in an innumerable quantity,
    some of the stone ka, alabaster, the minerals pi digili,
    flattened pi sirru for witness seals, blue and purple stuffs,
    cloth of berom and cotton, ebony; cedar, and cypress wood,
    freshly cut from the fine forests on Mount Amanus, in
    honor of Bel, Zarpanit, Nebo, and Tasmit, and the gods
    who inhabit the sanctuaries of the Sumers and Accads; all
    that from my accession to the third year of my reign.[38]

42 Upir, King of Dilmun who dwells at the distance of 30
    parasanges[39] in the midst of the sea of the rising sun and
    who is established as a fish, heard of the favor that the gods
    Assur, Nebo, and Merodach had accorded me; he sent
    therefore his expiatory gift.

43 And the seven Kings of the country of Iahnagi, of the
    country of Iatnan (who have established and extended
    their dwellings at a distance of seven days’ navigation in
    the midst of the sea of the setting sun, and whose name
    from the most ancient ages until the renewal of the lunar
    period,[40] none of the Kings my fathers in Assyria and
    Chaldea[41] had heard), had been told of my lofty achievements
    in Chaldea and Syria, and my glory, which had
    spread from afar to the midst of the sea.  They subdued
    their pride and humbled themselves; they presented themselves
    before me at Babylon, bearing metals, gold, silver,
    vases, ebony wood, and the manufactures of their country;
    they kissed my feet.

44 While I endeavored to exterminate Bet-Iakin and reduce
    Aram, and render my rule more efficacious in the country
    of Iatbur, which is beyond Elam, my Lieutenant, the Governor
    of the country of Kue, attacked Mita, the Moschian,
    and 3,000 of his towns; he demolished these towns, destroyed
    them, burnt them with fire, and led away many
    captives.  And this Mita the Moschian, who had never
    submitted to the Kings my predecessors and had never
    changed his will, sent his envoy to me to the very borders
    of the sea of the rising sun, bearing professions of allegiance
    and tributes.

45 In these days, these nations and these countries that my
    hand has conquered, and that the gods Assur, Nebo, and
    Merodach have made bow to my feet, followed the ways
    of piety.  With their help I built at the feet of the musri,
    following the divine will and the wish of my heart, a town
    that I called Dur-Sarkin[42] to replace Nineveh.[43]
    Nisroch,[44] Sin, Samas, Nebo, Bin, Ninip, and their great
    spouses, who procreate eternally in the lofty temple of the upper
