Anonymous Sumerian · Ur III / Old Babylonian (c. 2100–1600 BCE)
After you have taken out the implements to the xx fields from xx, let the hoe and the plough, the implements of field workers, rival each other before you. The king has paid attention to Enlil's instructions: Ninurta has prepared the holy plough, has ploughed the fertile fields and, to see that the silos and granaries of Enlil will be piled up high, he has sown with good seed.
