(29) At that time, (as for) the great wall of the New City, which (was built on) a mound facing the [open country], which (stretches) from the great wall of the Inner City by the entirety of [the New City], as far as the (Tigris) River, (and) which Puzur-Aššur (III), my ancestor, a king who came before me, had previously built, Aššur-bēl-nišēšu, (who was) also my ancestor, applied a façade to that wall, (but) it again became dilapidated, and Erība-Adad (I), the vice-regent of the god Aššur, (who was) also my ancestor, a king who came before me, applied a facing and façade in different places, (and then) he built (it) from its foundations to its crenellations, that wall had become dilapidated and was in ruin.

(39b) I, Adad-nā[rārī], the vice-regent of the god [Aššur], renovated its dilapidated section(s) (and) repaired (its) weakened portion(s). I built th(at) ruined (wall) fr[om] its foundations to its crenellations. I made (it) the thickness of fourteen bricks, using my large brick mold. Moreover, I deposited my commemorative inscriptions (therein). I (also) deposited commemorative inscriptions of my ancestors with my commemorative inscriptions (inside it).

(44) In the future, may a future ruler, when that wall becomes old and dilapidated, dilapidated section(s) (and) return my inscribed name, my commemorative inscriptions, and my foundation inscriptions to their places. The god Aššur will (then) listen to his prayers.
