O Ninshiku (Ea), lord of wisdom, creator of the sum total, for Sargon, king of the world, king of the land of Ashur, governor of Babylon, king of the land of Sumer and Akkad, builder of your cella: Cause your subterranean spring to open. Make its reservoirs deliver abundant and plentiful waters. Provide irrigation for his meadowland. Decree great intelligence (and) far-ranging wisdom as his fate. Make his deed come to fruition that he may achieve his goal!
