their Viceroys,
     their many convenient houses I took possession; impost
     and tribute, horses,
11 horses for the yoke, fish, oxen, sheep, goats in addition to
     what I had before settled, I imposed upon them; their
     youths as hostages
12 I took.  While I was staying in Tuskha, I received the
     tribute of Ammibaal son of Zamani, of Anhiti of the land
     of Rurie
13 of Labduri son of Dubuzi of the land of Nirdun and the
     tribute of the land of Urumi-sa Bitani, of the Princes of
     the land of Nairi,
14 chariots, horses, horses for the yoke, tin, silver, gold, kam
     of copper, oxen, sheep, goats.
15 Over the land of Nairi I established a viceroy:  (but) on
     my return the land of Nairi, and Nirbu which is in
16 the land of Kasyari, revolted; nine of their cities leagued
     themselves with Ispilipri one of their fortified towns and
     to a mountain difficult of access
17 they trusted; but the heights of the hill I besieged and
     took; in the midst of the strong mountain their fighting
     men I slew; their corpses like rubbish on the hills
18 I piled up; their common people in the tangled hollows of
     the mountains I consumed; their spoil, their property I
     carried off; the heads of their soldiers
19 I cut off; a pile (of them) in the highest part of the city I
     built; their boys and maidens I dishonored; to the environs
     of the city Buliyani
20 I passed; the banks of the river Lukia[1] I took possession
     of; in my passage I occupied the towns of the land of
     Kirhi hard by; many of their warriors
21 I slew; their spoil I spoiled; their cities with fire I burned: 
     to the city of Ardupati I went.  In those days the tribute
22 of Ahiramu son of Yahiru of the land of Nilaai son of Bahiani
     of the land of the Hittites[2] and of the Princes of the
     land of Hanirabi, silver, gold,
23 tin, kam of copper, oxen, sheep, horses, as their tribute I
     received; in the eponym of Assuridin[3] they brought me
     intelligence that
24 Zab-yav Prince of the land of Dagara had revolted.  The
     land of Zamua throughout its whole extent he boldly
     seized; near the city of Babite
25 they constructed a fort; for combat and battle they
     marched forth:  in the service of Assur, the great god my
     Lord and the great Merodach
26 going before me,[4] by the powerful aid which the Lord
     Assur extended to my people, my servants and my soldiers
     I called together; to the vicinity
27 of Babite I marched:  the soldiers to the valor of their army
     trusted and gave battle:  but in the mighty force of the
     great Merodach going before me
28 I engaged in battle with them; I effected their overthrow: 
     I broke them down; 1,460
