Перевод

There once was a man of Nippur, poor and needy,
His name was Gimil-Ninurta, a wretched man.
He dwelt in his city Nippur in abject misery:
He had no silver, as befits his people,
He had no gold, as befits humankind,
His larder wanted for pure grain.
His insides burned, craving for bread,
His face was wretched, craving meat and good drink,
Every day, for want of a meal, he went to sleep hungry.
He wore a garment for which there was none to change.
He debated with his wretched self,
“I’ll strip off my garment, for which there is none to change,
“I’ll buy a ram in the market of my city, Nippur.”
He stripped off his garment, for which there was none to change,
He bought a three-year old nanny goat in the market of his city Nippur.
He debated with his wretched self,
“What if I slaughter the nanny goat in my yard,
“There won’t be a meal, where will be the beer?
“My friends in my neighborhood will hear of it and be angry,
“My kith and kin will be furious with me.
“I’ll take the nanny goat and bring it to the mayor’s house,
“I’ll work up something good and fine for his appetite.”
Gimil-Ninurta took his nanny goat by the neck,
He went off to the gate of the mayor of Nippur.
To Tukulti-Enlil, who minded the gate, he sa[id (these) words:
“Say that I wish to enter to see the ma[yor.”
The doorman said (these) words to his master,
My lord, a citizen of Nippur is waiting at your gate,
“And as a greeting gift he has brought you a nanny goat.”
The mayor became angry with the doorman, Tukulti-Enlil,
“Why is a citizen of Nippur (kept) waiting at my gate?”
The doorman […] to […] …
Gimil-Ninurta [came happily [before the mayor.
When Gimil-Ninurta came before the mayor,
He held his nanny goat by the neck wi[th his left hand,
Holding high his right hand, he greeted the mayor:
“May Enlil and Nippur bless the mayor,
“May Ninurta and Nusku make his offspring flourish!”
The mayor said (these) words to the citizen of Nippur,
“What wrong has been done you, that you bring me a gift?”
[Gimil-Ninurta related his desire to the mayor of Nippur,
“Every [day, for want of a meal, I go to sleep hungry,
“[I stripped off my garment, for which there is none to change,
“I bought a three-year-old nanny goat [in the market of my city Nippur,
“I said to my wretched self (these) words:
‘[What if I slaughter the nanny goat in my yard,
‘[There won’t be a meal, where will be the beer?
‘My friends in my neighborhood [will hear of it and be angry,
‘[My kith and kin will be furious with me.
‘[I’ll take the nanny goat and bring it [to the mayor’s [house,’
“[That’s what I said to myself.”
[The mayor shouted in the slaughterer’s [ear that evening:
“Let them seize […],
“Let […] the table be laid sumptuously,
“[…] …”
He summoned [the doorman, who minded the gate,
To the doorman, who minded the gate, he said (these) words:
“Give him, the citizen of Nippur, a bone and gristle,
“Give him third-rate [beer to drink from your flask,
“Chase him away and throw him out the gate!”
He gave him, the citizen of Nippur, a [bone and gristle,
He gave him [third-rate [beer to drink from h[is flask,
He chased him away and threw [him out the gate.
As Gimil-Ninurra went out the gate,
To the doorman, who minded the gate, he said (these) words:
“Blessings of the gods upon your master! Tell him thus,
‘For the one bad turn you [did me,
‘For that one I will requite you three!’ Gang
When the mayor heard (that), he laughed all day.
Gimil-Ninurta set out for the king’s palace,
Since it is the king’s will that prince and governor shall give just verdicts.
When Gimil-Ninurta came before the king,
He prostrated and did homage before him,
Holding high his hand, he greeted the king of the world:
“O noble one, pride of the people, sovereign whose fortune is to be glorious!
“Let them give me, at your command, one chariot,
“That, for one day, I may accomplish whatever I wish.
“For my one day my payment shall be a mina of red gold.”
The king did not ask him, “What is your wish,
“That you [will parade about all day in one chariot?”
They gave him a new chariot, as befits grandeur,
They wrapped him in a sash around his [waist.
He mo[unted the new chariot, as befits grandeur,
He set out for the very heart of Duranki.
Gimil-Ninurta caught two birds,
He stuffed them in a box and sealed it with a seal,
He we[nt off to the gate of the mayor of Nippur.
The mayor came o[utdoors to meet him,
“Who are you, my lord, who have traveled so la[te in the day?”
“The king, your lord, has sent me, to the very h[eart of D[uranki,
“I have brought hither gold for Ekur, Enlil’s temple.”
The mayor slaughtered a fine sheep to make a multi-course meal for him.
While in his presence the mayor said to him, “Ho-hum, I’m tired!”
(But) Gimil-Ninurta sat up with the mayor one (whole) watch of the night.
When, from fatigue, the mayor was overcome with sleep,
Gimil-Ninurta got up stealthily in the night.
He opened the lid of that box, the birds flew off into the sky.
The mayor woke up at daybreak to open the box —
The box lid was open, the gold had been taken.
Gimil-Ninurta rent his clothes in anguish,
He set upon the mayor, made him beg for mercy,
He thrashed him from head to toe,
He inflicted suffering upon him.
The mayor, at his feet, cried out in terror, 104a. [The mayor, at his feet, cried out in terror, “My lord!”
“My lord, do not do away with a citizen of Nippur!
“You must not have the blood of a protected person, sacred to Enlil, on your hands!”
They gave him for his present two minas of red gold,
For the clothes he had rent, he gave him others.
Gimil-Ninurta, as he went out the gate,
To Tukulti-Enlil, who minded the gate, he said (these) words:
“Blessings of the gods upon your master! Say thus to him,
‘For the one bad turn you [did me,
‘I have requited you one, [two remain.’”
When the mayor heard (that), he was uneasy all day.
Gimil-Ninurta set [off to the b[arber,
He shaved off all his hair, assumed an imposing [mien.
He filled a cauterizing tool with tinder […],
He [went off to the gate of the mayor of Nippur.
He said to the doorman, who minded the gate:
“Say that I wish to enter to see [the mayor.”
“Who are you, that you should see [him?”
“[I am a physician, a native of Isin, who examines [patients,
“I give treatment wherever there is injury and smarting.”
When Gimil-[Ninurta came before the mayor,
He showed him his bruises where he had thrashed his body.
The may[or said [to his servants, “This physician is skillful!”
“My lord, my remedies are carried out in the dark,
“In a private place, where all is darkness.”
He brought him into an inaccessible chamber,
Where no friend or companion could take pity on him.
He laid the cauterizing tool in the fire,
He drove five pegs into the hard-packed floor,
He tied his head, hands, and feet (to them). 134a. He thrashed him from head to toe, 134b. He inflicted suffering upon him.
Gimil-Ninurta, as he went out the gate,
To Tukulti-Enlil, who minded the gate, he said these words:
“Blessings of the gods upon your master!” Say thus to him,
‘For the one bad turn you did me,
‘I have requited you two, one remains.’”
Gimil-Ninurta was wary, holding high his [nose? like a dog,
He examined all the Babylonians, scrutinizing each and every one of the people.
He finally caught sight of a certain young man, [no …] at all [could outrun him?.
He gave him a present, for [his] present [he gave him …]
“Go to the gate of the mayor [of Nippur?, start shouting,
“So all the numerous [people crowd around at your shouting,
‘I’m chasing [people towards the mayor’s gate! I’m the man with the nanny goat!’”
[Gimil-Ninurta crouched [under a bridge like a dog.
The mayor came outside at the young man’s shouting,
He brought out the people of his household, women and men.
They rushed off, all of them, in pursuit of the young man.
While they, all of them, were in pursuit of the young man,
The mayor [came out to the edge of town alone.
Gimil-Ninurta sprang out from under the bridge and seized the mayor,
He set upon the mayor, made him beg for mercy.
He thrashed him from head to toe,
He inflicted suffering upon him.
“[For the one bad turn you did me,
“I have requited you [the third retaliation!”
He [left him and went out into the open country,
The [mayor, on all fours, went back into town.
