their spoil in abundance I carried off; 50 cities of Dira I
occupied; their soldiers I slew; I plundered them; 50 soldiers
I took alive; the cities I overthrew
112 razed and burned; the approach of my Royalty overcame
them; from Pitura I withdrew, and went down to Arbaki
in Gilhi-Bitani;
113 they quailed before the approach of my Majesty, and deserted
their towns and strong places: for the saving of
their lives they went up to Matni a land of strength
114 I went after them in pursuit; 1,000 of their warriors I left
in the rugged hills; their corpses on a hill I piled up;
with their bodies the tangled hollows
115 of the mountains I filled; I captured 200 soldiers and cut
off their hands; their spoil I carried away; their oxen,
their sheep
116 without number, I took away; Iyaya, Salaniba, strong
cities of Arbaki I occupied; the soldiers I slew; their spoil
I carried off
117 250 towns surrounded with strong walls in the land of
Nairi I overthrew demolished and reduced to heaps and
ruins; the trees of their land I cut down; the wheat
118 and barley in Tuskha I kept. Ammiba'al the son of
Zamani had been betrayed and slain by his nobles.[21] To
revenge Ammiba'al
119 I marched; from before the vehemence of my arms and
the greatness of my Royalty
120 they drew back: his swift chariots, trappings for men and
horses one hundred in number,
121 horses, harness, his yokes, tribute of silver and gold with
100 talents
122 in tin, 100 talents in copper, 300 talents in _annui_, 100 _kam_
of copper, 3,000 _kappi_ of copper, bowls of copper, vessels
of copper,
123 1,000 vestments of wool, _nui_ wood, _eru_ wood, _zalmalli_
wood, horns, choice gold,
124 the treasures of his palace, 2,000 oxen, 5,000 sheep, his
wife, with large donations from her; the daughters
125 of his chiefs with large donations from them I received.
I, Assur-nasir-pal, great King, mighty King, King of legions,
King of Assyria,
126 son of Tuklat-Adar great and mighty King, King of
legions, King of Assyria, noble warrior, in the strength of
Assur his Lord walked, and whose equal among the
Kings
127 of the four regions exists not;[22] a King who from beyond
the Tigris up to Lebanon and the Great Sea
128 hath subjugated the land of Laki in its entirety, the land
of Zuhi with the city of Ripaki: from
