If in the month of Kislev,[573] an eclipse is observed
That encircles (?) the sun and the moon disappears,
Upon the observation of the eclipse,
Then may the king be exalted.
May the heart of the king, my lord, rejoice.
From Khushi-ilu, the servant of the king, the eponym.
Another report reads:[574]
To the king, my lord,
Thy servant Ishtar-iddinabal,
The chief of the astronomers of Arbela.
