The Return of Ninurta to Nibru (Nippur)

Source: Black, J.A., Cunningham, G., Robson, E., and Zólyomi, G.,The Electronic Text Corpus of Sumerian Literature, Oxford 1998-.

Ninurta is coming to Nippur for a visit to his father Enlil and mother Ninlil in full regalia. Such is the splendor of the young god that a messenger from Nippur comes to greet the young warrior god to say that his coming is so magnificent that it would be wise for him to dim a bit his radiance. So does Ninurta, putting aside some of his weapons, not all, to enter the temple of Enlil to be greeted lovingly by his mother and Anunnaki.

(Enlil‘s temple/ ziggurat residence in Nippur, built as the Anunnaki Earth Colony Command Central, top of structure was added by American archaeologists around 1900)

O warrior, because you have toppled the mountains your father need send out no other god beside you.

Ninurta, because you have toppled the mountains Enlil need send out no other god beside you.”

(Enlil, King Anu, & Enki in winged sky-disc)

He leaned his mace, the strength in battle, against the box and entered into the temple of Enlil.

(Inanna / Columbia / Liberty, ancient Goddess of Love & War)

161-164 “I am the (uncle to)..…., the creature of Inanna.

I am the warrior, destined with Enki to be suited for the fearsome divine powers (alien technologies).

Let my kingship be manifest unto the ends of heaven and earth.

I am most able among the gods — let me be imbued with great awesomeness.

having heard the favorable pronouncement of Ninurta, stepped before lord Ninurta and prayed to him:

(Ninurta captures in net smaller earthlings using his alien tech)

(Bau, spouse to her nephew Ninurta, daughter to alien King Anu in heaven / planet Nibiru)

what is in your heart, tell her what is on your mind.

Make an enduring favorable pronouncement to her for the king.”

187-194 The content of that prayer of the offspring of a prince,

Ninkarnuna (Ninurta‘s son), his sprinkling Ninurta‘s heart with an offering of cool water,

and the matter of prosperity about which he spoke were pleasing to Ninurta‘s heart

(alien Anunnaki carrying royal goddess descendants of Anu)

as he went in procession to E-cumecato manifest the eternal divine powers (alien technologies).

Lord Ninurta gazed approvingly at Ninkarnuna.

195-198 When Ninurta entered E-cumeca, his beloved temple, alone, he told his wife, young lady Ninnibru,

(Bau with her guard dog, Anu‘s daughter, Ninurta‘s aunt & spouse)

what was in his heart, he told her what was on his mind

and he made an enduring favorable pronouncement to her for the king.

199-201 The warrior, whose heroism is manifest, Ninurta, son of Enlil,

has firmly grounded his greatness in Enlil‘s sanctuary.

^1-8In those remote days, when the fates were determined; in a year when An (Anu) brought about abundance,

and people broke through the earth like herbs and plants — then the lord of the Abzu, king Enki,

(Enki, King Anu‘s eldest & wisest son)

Enki, the lord who determines the fates, built up his temple entirely from silver and lapis lazuli (gem stone).

In Eridug (Eridu), he built the house on the bank.

During the night the temple praises its lord and offers its best for him.

(Enki & his vizier Isimud = Roman god Janus = January, looking backward & forward simultaneously)

His shrine (?) spreads (?) out into the reed-beds; birds brood (1 ms. adds: at night) in its green orchards laden with fruit.

He has made Eridug rise up (?) (1 ms. has instead: come out) from the ground like a mountain!

He has built it in a pleasant place, in Eridug, the pure place, where no one is to enter —

a temple built with silver and decorated with lapis lazuli,

a house which tunes the seven tigi drums properly, and provides incantations;

where holy songs make all of the house a lovely place — the shrine of the Abzu, the good destiny of Enki,

befitting the elaborate divine powers (alien technologies); the temple of Eridug, built with silver:

(Enki, god of the waters, Aquarius, his zodiac symbol)

for all this, father Enki be praised!

(gods in blue …mixed-breed demigods in teal…)

1-11 After the cattle pen had been built for the foremost divine powers —

how did it become a haunted place? When will it be restored?

Where once the brick of fate had been laid — who scattered its divine powers?

The lamentation is reprized: how did the storeroom of Nibru (Nippur),

the shrine Dur-an-ki, become a haunted place? When will it be restored?

After Ki-ur, the (inner) sanctuary, had been built,

(E-kur, Enlil‘s ziggurat residence in Nippur)

after the brickwork of E-kur (Enlil‘s temple residence) had been built,

after Ubcu-unkena had been built, after the shrine Egal-mah had been built —

how did they become haunted? When will they be restored?

(excavations of Nippur, Enlil‘s residence way above)

12-21 How did the true city become empty?

Its precious designs have been defiled!

How were the city’s festivals neglected?

Its magnificent rites have been thrown into disorder!

In the heart of Nibru, where the divine powers (alien technologies) were allotted

and the black-headed people (earthlings) prolifically multiplied,

the city’s heart no longer revealed any sign of intelligence —

there where the Anuna (Anunnaki alien gods) used to give advice!

In Ubcu-unkena, the place for making great judgments, they no longer impart decisions or justice!

22-31 Where its gods had established their dwellings, where their daily rations were offered,

their daises erected, where the sacred royal offering (?) and the evening meal in their great banquet hall

(giant drinking bouts lasting weeks)

were destined for the pouring out of choice beer and syrup —

Nibru, the city where the black-headed people used to cool themselves in its spreading shade —

in their dwellings Enlil fell upon them as if they were criminals.

It was he who sent them scattering, like a scattered herd of cattle.

How long until its lady, the goddess Ninlil (Enlil‘s spouse),

would ask after the inner city, whose bitter tears were overwhelming?

(Enlil‘s equal spouse Ninlil)

32-41 As though it were empty wasteland,

no one enters that great temple whose bustle of activity was famous.

As for all the great rulers who increased the wealth of the city of Nibru — why did they disappear?

For how long would Enlil neglect the Land, where the black-headed people ate rich grass like sheep?

Tears, lamentation, depression and despair!

How long would his spirit burn and his heart not be placated?

Why were those who once played the cem and ala drums spending their time in bitter lamenting?

Why were the lamenters sitting in its brick buildings?

They were bewailing the hardship which beset them.

42-52 The men whose wives had fallen, whose children had fallen, were singing “Oh! Our destroyed city!”.

Their city gone, their homes abandoned —

as those who were singing for the brick buildings of the good city, as the lamenters of wailing,

like the foster-children of an ecstatic no longer knowing their own intelligence,

the people were smitten, their minds thrown into disorder.

The true temple wails bitterly.

(mud-brick-built Nippur ruins)

1st kirugu

…… built the temple, Ninlil …….

Its jicgijal

^53-61The true temple gave you only tears and lamentation —

it sings a bitter song of the proper cleansing-rites that are forgotten!

(E-kur, Enlil‘s temple residence ruins in Nippur)

The brickwork of E-kur gave you only tears and lamentation —

it sings a bitter song of the proper cleansing-rites that are forgotten!

It weeps bitter tears over the splendid rites and most precious plans which are desecrated —

its most sacred food rations neglected and …… into funeral offerings, it cries “Alas!”.

The temple despairs of its divine powers (alien technologies),

utterly cleansed, pure, hallowed, which are now defiled!

The true temple, which it is bitter to enter on one’s own, passes the time …… tears.

^62-67Because the sealings of the abundant materials stored in the temple have been broken open,

they have placed the loads on the ground.

Because the property in its well-tended storehouses has been sent back,

it says “What will they weigh out for me now?”;

because the enemies who do not know good from evil have cut off all good things,

it sings a bitter dirge;

because they have finished off its populace there like animals, it cries “Oh! my Land!”.

Because they have piled up the young women,

young men and their little children like heaps of grain, it cries “Woe!” for them.

Because they have splashed their blood on the ground like a rain-storm,

there is no restraint to its crying.

^68-78The temple, like a cow whose calf is cut off, groans bitterly to itself;

it is grief-stricken, and the sweet-voiced lamenters,

like nursemaids singing a lullaby, respond tearfully with its name.

In anguish they bewail the fact that the city’s lord has smashed heads there,

that he has looked away from it and toward a foreign land instead.

The true temple of all the countries, which had come before him —

what have the black-headed people, who had taken a true path, done,

what have they forsaken, that their lord has become enraged with them and walks in anger?

2nd kirugu

It voices bitter cries because he has removed the great divine powers (alien technologies) from within it.

Its jicgijal

^79-85How long will the city’s lord who became angry with it not turn to it, not say “Alas!” for it?

Why did he cut off the road to its brickwork?

He made the noisy pigeons fly away from their windows.

Why did he transform the appearance of the temple which knew voices,

where they used to while away the days in sweet playing of tigi drums in the brick buildings?

The temple, once a place to offer salutations in humility,

is now as deathly silent as a temple which no one reveres!

^86-94As though its purification priest’s equipment were not utterly sacred,

as though its cleansing-rites did not bring calm in all countries, he has abandoned it,

turned his breast away from it, among dejection and lamentation he has made it a sacrilege.

After its fate, how long till his face would be streaked with teardrops?

He rejected it thus as though it were a blasphemy!

Why has joy left its brickwork?

Night and day he has filled its heart with tears!

Even now, he has made it foreign and a sacrilege!

^95-102Its lord, who has despoiled it like an evil wind, has destroyed that city and its temples!

He has ripped out their foundations, struck them with the adze,

killed wives and their children within it,

(city ruins areal view, destroyed by gods & time)

he has turned that city into a deserted city — when would he restore its ancient property?

Its possessions have been carried off by the wind!

Enlil turned the city which used to be there into a city no longer!

^103-116He made its mind wander!

He threw its intelligence into disorder and made it haunted!

He took away its food and its water!

He brought to an end its days of familiarity with milk and with beer!

The temple which he has made a sacrilege utters bitter lamentations;

he has made its eyes blurred with tears.

The lamenters who perform the dirges respond to it sorrowfully.

No one touches the arm of the city’s lord who has removed its divine powers!

No one intercedes!

3rd kirugu

^114-115How did Enlil make all his greatest divine powers fly away!

No one ever touches his arm!

No one ever intercedes!

Its jicgijal

^117-126I am going down to my dirge singer of bitter fates and I shall weep tearfully to him.

Even now the lamenters who are expert in song make ululating wails over me!

Now my people who are overcome by hardship voice laments for me one by one!

Even now the places of refuge of my people whose hearts are burning in dark distress

have been made known to me!

My people whose hearts have been broken on the bitter way

perform the lullabies of my young ones for me in tears!

^127-138The well-built houses, ladies’ dwellings, were falsely founded,

and they have been eroded by the winds!

They are making a lament for me of how the foe has finished off my Land!

They are addressing the cries of my heart, overwhelmed with bitterness, in order to soothe it!

(Enlil, Earth Colony Commander, King Anu‘s son & heir, his decision is final)

They are beginning their laments about my lord Enlil!

He will have mercy and compassion on me —

Enlil, father of the black-headed people, he who will give the order to restore me!

4th kirugu

My heart is dark, I am destroyed, I am in chaos, I have been devastated!

Its jicgijal

^139-149In the foremost brick buildings they sing that your fate is bitter!

Even now, to Enlil who will accept your tears for you, weeping bitter tears of your own accord,

speak supplications to your lord himself concerning what he did to you, concerning that fate!

Say to him “My lord, how long?

Look upon me with favor, my lord!”.

Say “Why ……?”.

Say “May your heart be soothed for me — overturn this sacrilege for your own good!

The day is ……!”.

Say “Re-enter for me your dwelling in my darkened shrines!”.

Say “Like a bright, cleansed, sacred day, give …… for your own good!”.

Say “……!”.

Say “Your misfortunes …… will rebuild it!”.

^150-156Perhaps by this means I can make him have compassion and mercy for you.

Depression has weakened your heart, but I am the one who has established good cheer for you.

He will fix it forever as your lot that you shall lift your head high,

he will make good again the hostilities he is directing against you.

5th kirugu

In the city which does not know freedom he struck them down.

Its jicgijal

(high-priest standing upon ziggurat temple, & Marduk, eldest son to Enki)

^157-166Even now your lord has smitten the enemy fury for you!

He has had mercy on you and decreed your fate!

He has said “Enough”, so that he has removed lamentation from your brick buildings!

In good mood and with a joyful heart he has entered in there again for you!

Ninurta, the mighty commissioner, has looked after things!

He stood there before the hero, his provider Icme-Dagan,

and issued the command to him to completely rebuild the E-kur, the most precious shrine!

(Enlil‘s E-kur, & ziggurat residence in Nippur)

He has restored its ancient property!

Enlil has ordered Icme-Dagan to restore its ziggurat temple,

to make it shine like the day, to make fitting the dais upon its platform!

^167-180He has put back in their place the rites which the enemy disordered and desecrated,

along with the scattered divine powers!

He has given him his sacred unchangeable decision

that they should sanctify and purify again the cleansing-rites which the enemy had put a stop to!

He has told Icme-Dagan, his beloved shepherd,

that spirited bulls and spirited bucks should be slaughtered!

When decrees the fate of the sacred royal offering place (?),

he will offer salutations and stand there daily in supplication and prayer.

6th kirugu

How long before you will rest at ease?

Its jicgijal

^181-183How long will the brickwork strain its eyes upwards in tears and lamentations?

Even now your lord, the Great Mountain Enlil, supreme in the universe,

has removed lamentation from your brick buildings and made favorable your humor!

^184-192Now, city, your lord who has had compassion and mercy for you,

(Ninlil on shore, Enlil, & son Nuska)

Father Enlil, lord of all countries, who has commanded that you be restored,

and the great mother Ninlil, who entreated him in prayer there,

and the brickwork itself which said to him “Steady the trembling of Nibru!”

(Enlil has King Ur-Nammu repair his temple residence)

and said to him “Rebuild my womens quarters for me! Re-establish my temples for me!” —

he who mulled things over so that he came to a decision about them,

Enlil, who found agreeable his command of true words,

who beneficently entered the true temple which had suffered destruction —

he himself is removing what he turned upon you in distress.

^193-200Just as he silenced you, when he made joy enter again

he decreed as your fate the sound of choice beer and syrup being poured out to overflowing.

“Enough! It is time to stifle the lament” he said to you himself.

Because you have been living in a state of neglect, Enlil who has decreed your fate has said

“My city, you have placated my sacred heart towards you!”.

He has returned to you! “Nibru, you have placated my sacred heart towards you!”.

He has returned to you!

True city, he has decreed your great fate and made your reign long!

Nibru, he has decreed your great fate and made your reign long!

^201-213Enlil himself has commanded Icme-Dagan that the E-kur should shine like the day!

(E-kur, ziggurat residence of Enlil)

Steady sunlight shines into the Ki-ur; he has brought daylight in there again for you!

Ninlil has decreed your fate in the Jajiccua!

Enlil and Ninlil together founded daises in the E-kur!

(Enlil & Ninlil served by “modern” earthling workers)

They dined there and enjoyed choice beer!

They deliberated how to make the black-headed people (earthling workers) secure in their dwellings!

They have brought back to you the people who had been completely devastated!

They have gathered back together the children whom they turned away from their mothers!

The populace goes with you in their secure strongholds!

(Enlil‘s “Great Mountain”, ziggurat residence in Nippur, alien Command Central)

Shrine Nibru, Great Mountain Enlil has returned to you!

7th kirugu

How you suffer! How depression exhausts you!

Its jicgijal

214-219 Even now, they command Icme-Dagan that Sumer and Akkad should be restored at your feet,

that their scattered people should be returned to their nests!

(Enki‘s ziggurat in Eridu; Eridu ruins)

They have brought the news that the magnificent rites of Eridug (Eridu)

would not be forgotten, its heart sending forth wisdom, so that good sense should be allotted!

The Anuna, the lords who decree fates, order that Adab should be rebuilt,

the city whose lady fashions living things, who promotes birthing!

(Nannar‘s patron city of Ur, & Nannar‘s ziggurat residence way above the earthlings, plus original “Stairway to Heaven”)

220-227 An and Enlil have advised that Urim (Ur) should be restored,

founded in a pasture, its divine powers distinct from the rest!

They command the prince of the city Larsa, the herald of the universe,

the judge of the numerous people, to secure its foundations, to follow the proper path!

(Anu‘s residence in Uruk, also Inanna‘s)

They have taken a decision concerning Unug (Uruk)–

Kulaba, the sacred (precinct) city, the handiwork of the gods, and restored it.

They have brought news of the removal of all foes and enemies from the region of Zabalam,

the city where the Mistress of Heaven (Inanna, Goddess of War) concentrated her forces.

228-235 An and Enlil have looked with their beneficent gaze on Lagac (Lagash),

(young goddess Inanna & mooring-poles)

the mooring-pole of heaven, and the shrine Jirsu, established long ago.

They have removed the treacherous Tidnum from that temple in Umma,

Sig-kur-caga, which had been ill treated!

(Kish city ruins, & Ninhursag‘s large ziggurat residence)

It is the great gods who have commanded that the foundations of Kic (Kish) should be secured,

(Sumer, the “Eden”, is the “land of the gods”, “between the rivers” Euphrates & Tigris, down to the Persian Gulf)

at the edge of Sumer and Akkad, its dominion superlative!

Marad, the city in whose river water flows, in whose fields is fine grain —

the Anuna who took those things away from it returned them to it again!

236-246 Isin, the provisioner of the Anuna, awe-inspiring since times of old —

(Enlil Inanna Utu Enki 2-faced Isumud)

An, Enlil, Enki and Ninmah (Ninhursag) have made its reign long!

By their command they have handed it over and expressed their approval!

They have entrusted it to Ninurta, the champion, the strong hero!

(Bau nephew-spouse Ninurta)

They have told Ninisina (Bau), the exalted child of An, the incantation priest of the Land,

to rest calmly in her sacred dwelling, Egal-mah (temple residence in Nippur)!

They have told Damu, the chief barber (physician) of Nunamnir (Enlil), healer of the living,

(Bau‘s son Damu, alien Anunnaki Doctor of Medicine, Bau with guard dog, & warrior Ninurta)

to make the foreign countries bow at the feet of his father and mother!

8th kirugu

Its jicgijal

247-254 Now see! Enlil has fixed a good day in the land!

He has even now ordered the day for Nibru to raise its neck to heaven!

He himself has provided a good day for the E-kur to shine!

He himself has raised up the day for the Ki-ur’s magnificent manifestation!

He himself has restored the day for Sumer and Akkad to expand!

He himself has set aside the day for houses to be built and storerooms to be enclosed!

He himself has brought out the day for seeds to sprout and living things to be born!

He has brought out the day for building cattle pens and founding sheepfolds!

255-262 The ewes which bore lambs have filled the pens!

(1 ms. has instead the line: Ewes have given birth in the folds, their lambs have filled the pens!)

The goats which bore kids have filled the folds!

The ewes which flocked with their lambs have swelled the sheepfold!

The goats which flocked with their kids have caused the pens to be widened!

He himself has set the day for turning destruction to the good!

He has …… the day …… evil!

He has brought in Icme-Dagan (Enlil‘s mixed-breed descendant) as assistance

for the day for establishing justice in the land!

9th kirugu

263-274 Although Sumer and Akkad had been desecrated by the foe,

afterwords (sic) hearts were appeased, spirits soothed!

All the great gods thus had compassion!

They looked upon those sunk in exhaustion and brought them up out of it!

They restored your city which had been razed to ruins!

Enlil, king of all countries, restored its shining property

which had been scattered, which had been devastated!

There where the populace rested in the cool after building their nests,

in Nibru, the mountain of the greatest divine powers (Enlil‘s alien technologies),

from where they had taken an unfamiliar path —

at Enlil‘s word the Anuna, those very lords who determine the fates,

ordered that the temples which they had forsaken and the jewels,

put there long ago, which had been carried off by the wind, should all be restored!

275-283 He has established there dining in joy within!

Enlil has given the command to Icme-Dagan, his joyous, reverent sacral officiant,

who daily serves, to sanctify its food, to purify its water!

He has commanded him to purify its defiled divine powers!

He has put in order its disordered and scattered rites,

he has put back in their place the most sacred things, neglected and defiled.

He decrees as a fate the offering of daily rations and the grinding up of fine meal and flour.

He has decided to make bread plentiful on the table, to make loaves numerous!

10th kirugu

284-296 Father Enlil, the lord whose command cannot be altered, prince of all countries,

has fixed among the black-headed people, and commanded for their benefit,

a time when no one is to speak hostile words to another, when a son is to respect his father,

a time to establish humility in the Land, for the inferior to be as important as the mighty,

a time when the younger brother, fearing his big brother, is to show humility,

a time when the elder child is to treat the younger child reasonably and to pay heed to his words,

a time to take neither weak nor strong away into captivity, but to serve with great acts of good,

a time to travel the disordered roadways, to extirpate evil growths,

a time when anyone is to go where they will, to hurl no insults at one’s fellow,

(1 ms. has instead the line:a time when anyone is to go where they will,

to carry oneself humbly in the plain, to perform no sacrilege,)

a time no one is to speak hostile words to another, to perform no sacrilege,

(1 ms. has instead the line:a time to go from one’s own city to a foreign city,

to have no fear on the plain, to perform no sacrilege,)

a time to remove bitterness from the Land, to establish light therein,

a time when darkness is to be lifted in the Land, so that living things should rejoice.

11th kirugu

297-303 Now, see! After that time, Enlil, the (alien Anunnaki heir to kingship) prince who is full of pity,

has been beneficent to his hero who had laid the …… brick!

He put in order again for him the divine powers which had been desecrated by the enemy!

He sanctified again the defiled rites for him!

He purified its ziggurat temple and made it resplendent for him!

Within he made abundance plentiful, he filled it with choice beer and syrup!

He established there at that time the pleasing of hearts,

the appeasing of spirits, the ameliorating of moods!

304-314 Icme-Dagan himself stood in prayer to Enlil and offered salutations!

When he had begun the lament and spoken the supplication,

the prince of all countries treated his body with oil of abundance as if it were the sweetest syrup!

And his prayer was heard —

Enlil looked upon him with favor, Icme-Dagan whose words bring Enlil pleasure!

Enlil’s constant attendant, with whose thoughts he agrees!

Because the humble one prostrated himself in his devotions and served there,

because he will entreat him in supplication and will do obeisance,

because he will complete and honor the royal offering and will return,

because he will keep watch over everything and will not be negligent,

Enlil has promised to Icme-Dagan (his semi-divine descendant) his dominion of extended years!

315-323 He promised him that he will be a man of pre-eminent kingship!

He promised him that he will be a king whose reign is good!

He promised him that he shall have the people inhabit safe dwellings!

Enlil found agreement in what he had said to the numerous people!

On the day for decreeing fates, every part of Sumer and Akkad,

among the black-headed people flocking like sheep, among their well-tended people,

will praise forever the majesty of the Great Mountain Nunamnir (Enlil), enkara weapon of the universe!

It is his awe-inspiring way!

(gods in blue)

Enlil whose command is far-reaching, lofty his word (and) holy,

Whose pronouncement is unchangeable, who decrees destinies unto the distant future,

Whose lifted eye scans the land,

Whose lifted beam searches the heart of all the land–

(Enlil, Earth Colony Commander, son & heir to alien Anunnaki King Anu of planet Nibiru)

When Father Enlil seats himself broadly on the holy dais, on the lofty dais,

When Numamnir (Enlil) carries out to supreme perfection lordship and kingship,

The earth-gods bow down willingly before him,

The Anunna (Anunnaki) humble themselves before him,

Stand by faithfully in accordance with (their) instructions.

The great (and) mighty lord, supreme in heaven (and) earth,

the all-knowing one who understands the judgment,

Has set up (his) seat in Duranki–the wise one,

Made preeminent in princeship the kiur, the “great place,”

(E-kur, Enlil‘s mud-brick-built mountain / residence in Nippur)

In Nippur the lofty bellwether of the universe he erected (his) dwelling.

The city–its “face” is awesome fear (and) dread,

Its outside no mighty god can approach,

Its inside is (full of) cries of mutilation, cries of bloodshed,

It is a trap that serves as a pit and net against the rebellious land,

It grants not long days to the braggart,

Allows no evil word to be uttered against (the divine) judgment.

Hypocrisy, distortion,

Abuse, malice, unseemliness,

Insolence, enmity, oppression,

Envy, (brute) force, libelous speech,

Arrogance, violation of agreement, breach of contract, abuse of a court verdict,

(All these) evils the city does not tolerate.

(Enlil‘s alien communication towers throughout Sumerian cities)

Nippur, whose “arm” is a vast net,

Whose “heart” is the fast-stepping hurin-bird,

Whose “hand” the wicked and evil cannot escape;

The city endowed with truth,

Where righteousness (and) justice are perpetuated,

Where clean garments are worn (even) at the quay,

Where the older brother honors the younger brother, acts humanely (towards him),

Where the word of the elders is heeded, where it is repeated in fear,

Where the son humbly fears his mother, where eldership endures–,

(Nippur ruins way below Enlil‘s ziggurat, top added in 1900)

In the city, the holy seat of Enlil,…

Enlil, when you marked off holy settlements on earth,

You built Nippur as your very own city,

The kiur, the mountain, your pure place, whose water is sweet,

You founded in the Duranki (“Bond Heaven to Earth”), in the center of the four corners (of the universe),

Its ground, the life of the land, the life of all the lands,

Its brickwork of red metal, its foundations of lapis-lazuli,

You have reared it up in Sumer like a wild ox,

All lands bow the head to it,

(early “modern man” celebrating with the giant alien gods in their image & likeness)

During its great festivals, the people spend (all) their time in bountifulness….

Enlil, the shepherd upon whom you gaze (favorably),

The legitimate one, whom you have raised over the land–

The foreign land at his hand, the foreign land at his foot,

(As well as) the most distant of foreign lands you make subservient to him,

Like refreshing water, overflowing goods from all over,

Their offerings and heavy tribute,

They brought into the storehouse,

Into the main courtyard they conducted (their) gifts,

Into the Ekur, the “lapis-lazuli” house they brought them in homage.

^A1-A19 City whose terrifying splendor extends over heaven and earth,

whose towers are exceptionally grand, shrine Nibru (Nippur)!

Your power reaches to the edges of the uttermost extent of heaven and earth.

Of all the brick buildings erected in the Land, your brickwork is the most excellent.

You have allowed all the foreign lands and as many cities as are built to receive excellent divine powers.

Your name is as excellent as your excellent divine powers (alien technologies).

Your soil is soil as good as your name.

City, your name towers (1 ms. has instead: your divine powers tower) over heaven and earth.

(Enlil‘s communication towers in Nippur)

^A20-A37You are the pillar (?) in the south and the uplands, the mooring post of all people.

Your divine powers are supreme divine powers (alien technologies)

with which no divine powers can compare.

Your plans are as if rooted in the abzu, endowed with great terrifying splendor.

As if it were the lovely earth itself, no one can comprehend your eminence.

Your pre-eminent destiny surpasses all praise.

You are a lofty hill that no one can reach.

Outstanding, with head high, you reach to the heavens.

^A38-A56Your interior towers up, and your exterior is awesome.

You were built as life-giving food for the Anuna (Anunnaki) gods;

(when the giant alien gods worked to survive on Earth Colony, prior mankind)

you were beautified for their eating and drinking.

You are the sheepfold which is there for their life.

(giant gods with advanced technologies they used over earthlings)

Nothing escapes your grasp, as if caught in the threads of an outspread net.

Shrine Nibru (Nippur), your activities are quite excellent, quite surpassing all description.

The divine powers that you allocate are a good fortune which cannot be overturned.

(mud-brick-built ruins of the E-kur in Nippur)

^A57-A71City, your interior is holy, your exterior is radiant.

Your body exudes terrifying splendor.

(Sumer, “Eden” between the rivers, built by Enlil, the Anunnaki leader)

Your location is a well-chosen location.

The lord of wisdom, Enlil, the Great Mountain, has built a sanctuary in your midst;

that sanctuary is a lapis-lazuli sanctuary, a sanctuary that can decide destinies.

(E-kur, Enlil‘s residence / Command Central in Nippur)

It is the E-kur, the lapis-lazuli temple, the temple that can decide the destinies.

^A72-A114Your prince, Nunamnir (Enlil), the steer who has engendered (?)

the divine powers, and mother Ninlil, the great lady of your Ki-ur (inner residence),

the lady who has born the divine powers — what god is there living in the Land like these two?

They have cultically purified (?) …….

He laid plans for …… and spread the population wide.

Enlil set his foot upon the earth like a great bull.

^12-18He copulated with the great hills, he gave the mountain its share.

He filled its womb with Summer and Winter, the plenitude and life of the Land.

(Anu & Enlil in their sky-discs, scanning the lands on Earth)

As Enlil copulated with the earth, there was a roar like a bull’s.

The hill spent the day at that place and at night she opened her loins.

She bore Summer and Winter as smoothly as fine oil.

He fed them pure plants (from Nibiru) on the terraces of the hills like great bulls.

He nourished them in the pastures of the hills.

^19-25Enlil set about determining the destinies of Summer and Winter.

(1st settlements established by Enlil in Sumer)

For Summer founding towns and villages (establishing Sumer),

bringing in harvests of plenitude for the Great Mountain Enlil,

(in the beginning the aliens did the farming, then they fashioned “modern man” into their image, & into their likeness, to become replacement workers for the Anunnaki giants, who put the burdensome hard labor upon the earthlings for all time)

sending laborers out to the large arable tracts, and working the fields with oxen;

for Winter plenitude, the spring floods, the abundance and life of the Land,

placing grain in the fields and fruitful acres, and gathering in everything —

(Enlil with plow, Haia – Barley god, Nisaba & daughter Ninlil – Goddesses of Grains, & unidentified)

Enlil determined these as the destinies of Summer and Winter.

^26-32By hand Winter guided the spring floods,

the abundance and life of the Land, down from the edge of the hills.

(Earth Colony’s 1st cities, established by the giant alien Anunnaki gods)

Ninurta, Enlil‘s son, …… the fruitful acres.

He …… grain in the large arable tracts.

He fills the fields and fruitful acres of Enlil.

^50-60Winter made the ewe give birth to the lamb, he gave the kid to the goat.

He made cows teem together with their calves, he provided butter and milk.

On the high plain he made the deer and stag glad of heart.

He made the birds of heaven set their nests in the broad spaces.

The fish of the lagoons laid eggs in the reed-bed.

In all the orchards he made honey and wine drip (?) to the ground.

He made the trees, wherever planted, bear fruit.

He established gardens and provided plants.

He made grain abundant in the furrows.

(Nisaba, Enlil, his spouse Ninlil, & semi-divine king)

He made Ezina (Ninlil) appear radiant as a beautiful maiden.

The harvest, the great festival of Enlil, rose heavenward.

^61-68Summer founded houses and farmsteads, he made the cattle-pens and sheepfolds wide.

He multiplied the stacks of sheaves in all the arable tracts.

At their edges he made …… flax …… ripen (?).

He brought a plentiful harvest into the temples, he heaped up piles of grain.

He founded towns and villages, he built the houses of the Land.

In E-namtila, the holy seat of kingship, fit for high daises,

(Enlil‘s mud-brick-built mountain / residence in Nippur, Command Central)

he established abundance for the Great Mountain Enlil.

^69-88Summer, the heroic son of Enlil, decided to bring offerings to E-namtila, the house of Enlil.

He brought animals, cattle and sheep of the hill, fully grown wild rams, deer and stags,

(giant alien gods Inanna & Dumuzi “The Shepherd” with his sheep; Dumuzi “The Shepherd” his stags)

…… sheep, long-fleeced barley-fed sheep, thick-tailed sheep.

Pigs grown fat in the midst of the reed-beds, porcupine, tortoise, turtle,

large pomegranates gathered from the orchards, big bunches of grapes on high,

winter cucumbers, …… empty ……, brought forth …… in the early rain,

large turnips, large …… cut down with the knife (?), long leeks —

Winter himself brought the tribute he had collected.

^105-111Summer and Winter set about organizing the animals and offerings for E-namtila, the house of Enlil.

The two of them, like huge butting bulls, reared themselves triumphantly.

But Winter, because his limbs had grown tired from the grain grown heavy in the furrows,

and the wheat and the emmer which he had been watering by hand,

turned away as from an enemy and would not draw near.

^112-120Consequently Winter was overcome by anger and he started a quarrel with Summer:

“Summer, my brother, you should not praise yourself; whatever harvest produce you bring as gifts

to the palace has not been made by your toil: you should not brag.

As if you were the one who had done the hard work, as if you had done the farming,

as if you had taken care of irrigation control during the spring floods,

as if you had brought forth the …… grain in the arable tracts with the dew from heaven —

how much through my toil is it that you enter the palace!

(Anunnaki giant alien god Nannar with his million cows in pens at Ur)

^144-152“After you have threshed it at your threshing floor, and have …… the cattle’s dung,

…… the animals, the storehouses and their contents.

After your houses and farmsteads …… sheep, …… from your cattle,

after …… their reed-beds, after …… green briars and cut …… thorns, …… storehouse

…… the dung of unyoked oxen — the slave Summer,

the duly-appointed laborer who will never rest from his toil,

a hired man who has to return to the fields of the Land for his own sustenance!”

^153-156On that day Winter taunted Summer.

Summer, the hero whom one does not challenge, searched for rude insults.

He was confident in himself, considering the harvest time, and turned aside.

Like a great bull eating rich grass, he raised his head.

^157-163Next, Summer replied to Winter:

“Winter, you may have to stay by the side of the oven, ……;

but you should not launch such serious insults against someone who does not lead a sedentary (?) life.

…… for the work of tilling the Land, with its difficulties,

you do not raise a cry in the gune (?) cult center, you do not look after the house.

(alien Anunnaki Goddess of Scribes Nisaba, Geshtinanna, & unidentified)

The young scribe is neglectful, which is an abomination, and no rushes are plucked for the beds.

Tirelessly and constantly I place abundance upon the fields.

^172-184“After they …… my seed,

Winter, do not …… noise, when water is cut off from the arable tracts,

when the bowls lie placed, when the fishing place has been prepared,

(Anunnaki alien gods Enlil, Inanna & Utu, Enki separated the edible fish, & two-faced god Isumud)

when the fish have been piled up, I am father Enlil‘s great comptroller.

I harrow the fields into fruitful acres.

When the oxen have stopped working the fields,

when you have concentrated your efforts on the damp areas and given the sign for the field work,

I do not work for you in the large arable tracts and fruitful acres early in the season.

If the spring grain bends its neck in the hollow of the furrows, no one provides a fence.

Whatever your farmer brings to the oxen, he will not make the oxen angry with me.

Winter …… in the uplands …….

The man of the bedroom …….”

^185-188Then Summer taunted Winter:

“Wise ……, serious insults ……, not …….”

^189-199Thereupon Winter replied to Summer:

“Summer, the donkey grazing on grass at the harvest ground and braying noisily,

the mule ……, the harvest ox chafing its neck in the pegs and tossing its head in the lead rope,

the innkeeper going to the harvest ground carrying a bowl in his hands,

Summer, my brother, after you have gone out boasting about my toil,

and the granaries are packed full, when you bring the surplus,

the builder who places laborers in houses, never resting from his efforts,

the potter who digs out clay, lights a fire and stokes it with wood …… the pot!

(Enki‘s daughter Uttu weaving & spinning thread, giant alien Goddess of Weaving)

Weaver, weave your bardul garment with the strength (?) of your aktum cloth.

Brewer, bake your beer bread at the harvest ground as your assignment!

Cook, produce great banquet loaves in summer!

The building supervisor …… the …… of the roofs.

People …… boots and shoes ……. (all 1st in Sumer / “Eden”)

^216-224“Summer, my brother, as long as you go with my term of duty,

great and small order you about and your string is not cut.

Although you have gathered all things in the Land and filled the storehouses,

in all my strength I am their owner when your limbs become tired.

When the clouds have brought down the abundance of heaven,

and the water of the first greening has descended from the hills,

and the new grain has been put in the granary to be added to the old grain,

the good farmer, having seen to his fields, shouts for joy,

the carrier donkeys stand ready and he sets out confidently for the city.

^225-235“My brother, when you have put the holy plow away in the barn,

the storehouse, everything you have gathered, you make a roar like fire.

You sit down to plentiful food and drink.

You obtain the choicest goods from the Land.

For my king named by Nanna (Nannar), the son of Enlil,

when you have taken care of the bardul garment and the nijlam garment,

when you have made a perfect feast for the gods,

(Anunnaki alien giants upon animal symbols & zodiac signs)

when the Anuna (alien Anunnaki) have placed garments on their holy bodies,

(Enlil & Anunnaki King father Anu, wearing the crown of planet Nibiru & colonies)

in his E-namtila, the holy abode of kingship founded by An (Anu),

at that place of content they prepare a choice banquet.

^236-247“When the cem and ala drums, …… and other instruments play together for him,

But it is I who have made the wine plentiful and made much to eat and drink.

I fill the fish-hook.

My comrade, grasp your leather bag, go out …….

The farmer …… hardship.

The farmer …… the rain.

The gardener does not know how to plant purslane, your …… basket …….

How can you compare yourself to me while seeking a roof under which to rest?”

^259-263For a second time Winter had taunted Summer.

(Enki, Anu in his sky-disc above, Enlil, & their winged pilots on each end)

Summer, the heroic son of Enlil, was convinced of his own strong power

and consequently trusted in himself.

He acted as if in a friendly manner to the insults that Winter had spoken to him.

^264-273Then Summer replied to Winter:

“Winter, you should not boast about your superior strength

after you have explained the grounds for your boasting.

I shall speak about your abode in the city which I shall …….

You seem like a man of office but you are an inept one.

Your straw bundles are for the oven-side, hearth and kiln.

helpless people run like sheep from oven-side to kiln, and from kiln to oven-side, in the face of you (?).

In sunshine …… you reach decisions, but now in the city people’s teeth chatter because of you.

^274-282“When the day is half done, nobody walks about in the streets.

The servant, basking by the side of the oven, is in the house until sunset.

(Anunnaki daughter to Enki, goddess Ninsikila helping out on Earth Colony)

The maid, not attending to the flow of the water-container, passes the day on garments.

As for the fields not worked in winter, their furrows are not cut straight and their grain,

having not been cast into a wholesome place, is taken away by huge flocks of rooks.

(3,000 B.C. clay sickle of Sumer)

The vegetable cutter …… does not …… those vegetables at the market.

Carrying old reeds, the laborer is halt and lame.

Don’t speak with a gaping mouth of your superior strength — I will make known its shape and essence.”

^283-287For a second time Summer had taunted Winter.

(Enlil‘s Earth Colony Command Central)

On that day of the E-kur’s (Enlil‘s temple – residence) festival and Sumer’s plenty,

the two of them stretched (?) their legs and stood combatively.

Summer and Winter, like great bulls about to tear at each others horns,

bent forward like wild bulls in the main courtyard and took up their positions.

^288-296Like a great bull Winter raised his head to speak:

“Father Enlil, you gave me control of irrigation; you brought plentiful water.

I made one meadow adjacent to another and I heaped high the granaries.

The grain became thick in the furrows.

(Ninlil shared equal authority with spouse Enlil on Earth Colony)

Ezina (Ninlil, Grain Goddess, Nisaba‘s daughter) came forth in splendor like a beautiful maiden.

Summer, a bragging field-administrator who does not know the extent of the field,

…… my thighs grown tired from toil.

…… tribute has been produced for the king’s palace.

Winter admires the heart of your …… in words.”

^297-303Summer pondered everything in his head and calmed down.

(Enlil, Anu‘s son & heir, father to Ninurta & Adad)

Summer spoke respectfully to Enlil:

“Enlil, your verdict is highly valued, your holy word is an exalted word.

The verdict you pronounce is one which cannot be altered — who can change it?

There was quarreling of brother with brother but now there is harmony.

For as long as you are occupying the palace, the people will express awe.

When it is your season, far be it from me to humiliate you — in fact I shall praise you.”

^304-309Enlil answered Summer and Winter:

“Winter is controller of the life-giving waters of all the lands – the farmer of the gods produces everything.

Summer, my son, how can you compare yourself to your brother Winter?”

The import of the exalted word Enlil speaks is artfully wrought,

the verdict he pronounces is one which cannot be altered — who can change it?

^310-315Summer bowed to Winter and offered him a prayer.

(Anunnaki giant gods drinking on land & sea)

In his house he prepared emmer-beer and wine.

At its side they spend the day at a succulent banquet.

Summer presents Winter with gold, silver and lapis lazuli.

They pour out brotherhood and friendship like best oil.

By bringing sweet words to the quarrel (?) they have achieved harmony with each other.

^316-318In the dispute between Summer and Winter,

Winter, the faithful farmer of Enlil (NInurta), was superior to Summer —
