>O king, storm of majestic splendour, peerless Ninurta, possessing superior strength; who pillages the mountains all alone; deluge, indefatigable serpent hurling yourself at the rebel land, hero striding formidably into battle; lord whose powerful arm is fit to bear the mace, reaping like barley the necks of the insubordinate; Ninurta, king, son in whose strength his father rejoices; hero whose awesomeness covers the mountains like a south storm; Ninurta, who makes the good tiara, the rainbow (?), flash like lightning; grandly begotten by him who wears the princely beard; dragon who turns on himself, strength of a lion snarling at a snake, roaring hurricane; Ninurta, king, whom Enlil has exalted above himself; hero, great battle-net flung over the foe; Ninurta, with the awesomeness of your shadow extending over the Land; releasing fury on the rebel lands, overwhelming their assemblies! Ninurta, king, son who has forced homage to his father far and wide!

>The lord cried "Alas!" so that Heaven trembled, and Earth huddled at his feet and was terrified (?) at his strength. Enlil became confused and went out of the E-kur. The mountains were devastated. That day the earth became dark, the Anuna trembled. The hero beat his thighs with his fists. The gods dispersed; the Anuna disappeared over the horizon like sheep. The lord arose, touching the sky; Ninurta went to battle, with one step (?) he covered a league, he was an alarming storm, and rode on the eight winds towards the rebel lands. His arms grasped the lance. The mace snarled at the mountains, the club began to devour all the enemy. He fitted the evil wind and the sirocco on a pole (?), he placed the quiver on its hook (?). An enormous hurricane, irresistible, went before the hero, stirred up the dust, caused the dust to settle, levelled high and low, filled the holes. It caused a rain of coals and flaming fires; the fire consumed men. It overturned tall trees by their trunks, reducing the forests to heaps, Earth put her hands on her heart and cried harrowingly; the Tigris was muddied, disturbed, cloudy, stirred up. He hurried to battle on the boat Ma-kar-nunta-ea; the people there did not know where to turn, they bumped into (?) the walls. The birds there tried to lift their heads to fly away, but their wings trailed on the ground. The storm flooded out the fish there in the subterranean waters, their mouths snapped at the air. It reduced the animals of the open country to firewood, roasting them like locusts. It was a deluge rising and disastrously ruining the mountains.

>The hero Ninurta led the march through the rebel lands. He killed their messengers in the mountains, he crushed (?) their cities, he smote their cowherds over the head like fluttering butterflies, he tied together their hands with hirin grass, so that they dashed their heads against walls. The lights of the mountains did not gleam in the distance any longer. People gasped for breath (?); those people were ill, they hugged themselves, they cursed the Earth, they considered the day of the Asag's birth a day of disaster. The lord caused bilious poison to run over the rebel lands. As he went the gall followed, anger filled his heart, and he rose like a river in spate and engulfed all the enemies. In his heart he beamed at his lion-headed weapon, as it flew up like a bird, trampling the mountains for him. It raised itself on its wings to take away prisoner the disobedient, it spun around the horizon of heaven to find out what was happening. Someone from afar came to meet it, brought news for the tireless one, the one who never rests, whose wings bear the deluge, the Šar-ur.

>Enlil brought Gibil as his aid. He called the great storm of heaven – the people groan. The great storm howls above – the people groan. The storm that annihilates the Land roars below – the people groan. The evil wind, like a rushing torrent, cannot be restrained. The weapons in the city smash heads and consume indiscriminately. The storm whirled gloom around the base of the horizon – the people groan. In front of the storm, heat blazes – the people groan. A fiery glow burns with the raging storm.

>He who stood up to the weapon was crushed by the weapon – the people groan. He who ran away from it was overwhelmed (?) by the storm – the people groan. The weak and the strong of Urim perished from hunger. Mothers and fathers who did not leave their houses were consumed by fire.

>Then I looked, and there above the expanse over the headsa of the •cherubim was something like sapphireb stone resembling the shape of a throne that appeared above them. 2The LORD spoke to the man clothed in linen and said, “Go inside the wheelwork beneath the cherubim. Fill your hands with hot coals from among the cherubim and scatter them over the city.”c So he went in as I watched.

>Now the cherubim were standing to the south of the temple when the man went in, and the cloudd filled the inner court.e 4Then the glory of the LORD rose from above the cherub to the threshold of the temple.f The temple was filled with the cloud,g and the court was filled with the brightness of the LORD’s glory.h 5The sound of the cherubim’s wings could be heard as far as the outer court; it was like the voice of •God Almighty when He speaks.

>After the LORD commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, “Take fire from inside the wheelwork, from among the cherubim,” the man went in and stood beside a wheel. 7Then the cherub reached out his hand to the fire that was among them. He took some, and put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen, who took it and went out. 8The cherubim appeared to have the form of human hands under their wings.i

>I looked, and there were four wheels beside the cherubim,j one wheel beside each cherub. The luster of the wheels was like the gleam of beryl.k 10In appearance, all four had the same form, like a wheel within a wheel. 11When they moved, they would go in any of the four directions,l without pivoting as they moved. But wherever the head faced, they would go in that direction,m without pivoting as they went.

>Their entire bodies,n including their backs, hands, wings, and the wheels that the four of them had, were full of eyes all around.o 13As I listened the wheels were called “the wheelwork.” 14Each one had four faces:p the first face was that of a cherub, the second that of a man, the third that of a lion, and the fourth that of an eagle.

>The cherubim ascended; these were the living creatures I had seen by the Chebar Canal.q 16When the cherubim moved, the wheels moved beside them, and when they lifted their wings to rise from the earth, even then the wheels did not veer away from them. 17When the cherubim stood still,r the wheels stood still, and when they ascended, the wheels ascended with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in them.

>Then the glory of the LORD moved away from the threshold of the temples and stood above the cherubim.t 19The cherubim lifted their wings and ascended from the earth right before my eyes;u the wheels were beside them as they went. The glory of the God of Israel was above them, and it stood at the entrance to the eastern gate of the LORD’s house.

>These were the living creatures I had seenv beneath the God of Israel by the Chebar Canal,w and I recognized that they were cherubim. 21Each had four faces and each had four wings,x with the form of human hands under their wings. 22Their faces looked like the same faces I had seeny by the Chebar Canal. Each creature went straight ahead.

>1He led me to the gate,a the one that faces east, 2and I saw the glory of the God of Israelb coming from the east.c His voice sounded like the roar of mighty waters,d and the earth shone with His glory.e 3The vision I sawf was like the one I had seen when Heg came to destroy the city,h and like the ones I had seen by the Chebar Canal.i I fell facedown.j 4The glory of the LORD entered the temple by way of the gate that faced east.k 5Then the Spirit lifted me upl and brought me to the inner court, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.m
