116 He kissed him on the forehead, and his fear departed from him.

117 "O my Lord, let not the word of thy lips be overcome,

118 "Let me go, that I may accomplish all that is in thy heart.

119 "O Lord on High, let not the word of thy lips be overcome,

120 "Let me go, that I may accomplish all that is in thy heart."

121 "What man is it who hath brought thee forth to battle?

122 "Tiamat, who is a woman, is armed and attacketh thee."

123 "... rejoice and be glad;

124 "The rebel's might shalt thou swiftly trample under foot.

125 "... rejoice and be glad;

126 "The neck of Tiamat shalt thou swiftly trample under foot."

127 "O my servant, who knoweth all wisdom,

128 "Pacify Tiamat with thy pure prayer.

129 "Speedily set out upon thy way,

130 "Thy blood shall not be poured out, thou shalt return again."

131 The champion rejoiced at the word of his Lord,

132 His heart exulted, and unto his Lord he spake:

133 "O Lord of the angels, Decreer of the destinies of the great ones,

134 "If I, your avenger,

135 "Conquer Tiamat and give you life,

136 "Appoint an assembly, and proclaim the decree concerning me.

137 "In the assembly seat yourselves joyfully together,

138 "With my word in place of yours will I carry out the decree.

139 "May whatsoever I do remain unaltered,

140 "May the word of my lips never be changed nor made of no avail."
