A hymn to Nergal (Nergal B)

Then Erra welcomed his king: "They have come! You surpass An! Perform the stewardship for An the king! In accordance with destiny you determine fates with him, Nergal!" Ninšubur, the minister of the great place, the underworld, greeted Nergal: "You are the lord who has made the bandits come forth (?) from the mountains. As with Enlil xx, no part of a foreign land escapes your grasp. Hero, for Enlil you piled up Enlil's enemies (?) in a single day. Hating xx, Nergal, xx as fire, you rise up in the lands where the sun rises." The Anuna gods stepped forward: "Like xx cracks xx, xx, you are Nergal!"
