Rimuš , king of the world - from ancient times for the god Enlil no one a statue of meteoric iron had fashioned . ( But ) Rimuš , king of the world , a statue of himself of meteoric iron he fashioned , and in front of Enlil it ( now ) stands . ( Thus ) at the side of the gods himself he reckons ( ? ) . A person who this inscription shall obliterate , may Enlil and Šamaš his foundations tear out and his seed may they pluck out .
