“My Lord is wroth in his heart; may he be appeased again. May God be appeased again, for I knew not that I sinned. May Istar, my mother, be appeased again, for I knew not that I sinned. God knoweth that I knew not; may he be appeased. Istar, my mother, knoweth that I knew not; may she be appeased. May the heart of my God be appeased. May the heart of Istar, my mother, be appeased. May God and Istar, my mother, be appeased. May God cease from his anger. May Istar, my mother, (cease from her anger). The transgression (I committed my God) knew. [The next few lines are obliterated.] The transgression (I committed Istar, my mother, knew). (My tears) I drink like the waters of the sea. That which was forbidden by my God, I ate without knowing. That which was forbidden by Istar, my mother, I trampled on without knowing. O my Lord, my transgression is great, many are my sins. O my God, my transgression is great, many are my sins. O Istar, my mother, my transgression is great, many are my sins. O my God, who knowest that I knew not, my transgression is great, many are my sins. O Istar, my mother, who knowest that I knew not, my transgression is great, many are my sins. The transgression that I committed I knew not. The sin that I sinned I knew not. The forbidden thing did I eat. The forbidden thing did I trample on. My Lord, in the anger of his heart, has punished me. God in the strength of his heart has received me. Istar, my mother, has seized upon me and put me to grief. God, who knoweth that I knew not, has afflicted me. Istar, my mother, who knoweth that I knew not, has caused darkness. I prayed and none takes my hand. I wept and none held my palm. I cry aloud; but there is none that will hear me. I am in darkness and hiding, I dare not look up. To God I refer my distress, I utter my prayer. The feet of Istar, my mother, I embrace. To God, who knoweth that I knew not, my prayer I utter. To Istar, my mother, who knoweth that I knew not, my prayer I address. [The next four lines are lost.] How long, O God (shall I suffer)? How long, O Istar, my mother (shall I suffer)? How long, O God, who knoweth that I knew not, (shall I feel thy) strength? How long, O Istar, my mother, who knoweth that I knew not, shall thy heart (be angry)? Thou writest the number (?) of mankind, and none knoweth it. Thou callest man by his name, and what does he know? Whether he shall be afflicted, or whether he shall be prosperous, there is no man that knows. O my God, thou givest not rest to thy servant. In the waters of the raging flood take his hand. The sin he has sinned turn into good.
