No-one had crossed the Euphrates, but the Great King Tabarna crossed it on foot and after him his troops crossed it on foot.
Sargon, he crossed it and he fought back the troops of Ḫaḫḫu, but he did not do anything to Ḫaḫḫu. He did not set (it) on fire. He did not show smoke to the Storm-god.
(But) the Great King Tabarna the king of Ḫaššu and the king of Ḫaḫḫu when he destroyed Ḫaḫḫu, and when he set (it) on fire, he showed smoke to the Sun-god of Heaven and to the Storm-god.
And I harnessed the king of Ḫaḫḫu to a cart.
