1. The evil …

2 My slanderer is prospering

3 The overwhelming one, my Gallû-demon, the one accumulated (against me), the one that follows me,

4 on the command of Šamaš, my deity,

5 the evil …,  let my slanderer be discredited!

6 Let my Gallû-demon be routed

7 Let the one who follows me be captured!
