105 B.—“To the King my Lord ... thus (says) _Adonizedek_(322) thy servant ... at the feet of my Lord ... seven times and seven times ... Behold _Milcilu_ is not rid from the sons of _Labaya_, and from the sons of _Arzaya_, as to their desire of the King’s land for themselves. A ruling man who makes demand thereof, why has he not asked it of the King? Lo! _Milcilu_ and _Takanu_ have desired the doing thereof. Lo! he has marched to it. Not having desired to strive ...” The lower half of the front is here lost, and the rest is on the back.
“So now, failing those who were chiefs of the garrison of the King, let me fly to the King.(323) Truly _Ben Piru_ (or _Ben Carru_) has fled his being led captive by my destroyers, he goes from the city _’Azati_ (Gaza): let him remind the King in his presence of a garrison to guard the land. All the King’s land is rebellious. _Yagu Balaam_ is sent, and let the King’s land know from the King’s scribe ... Thus says _Adonizedek_ thy servant ... the messages.”
102 B.—“To the King my Lord is mourning thus this _Adonizedek_ thy servant. At the feet of my Lord, of the King, seven times and seven times I bow. What shall I ask of the King my Lord? They have prevailed, they have (taken the fortress of Jericho(324)) they who have gathered against the King of Kings, which Adonizedek has explained to the King his Lord. Behold, as to me, my father is not and my army is not.(325) The tribe that has ground me in this place is very rebellious to the King, the same is struggling with me for the house of my father. Why has the tribe sinned against the King my Lord? Behold O King my Lord arise! I say to the _Paka_ (resident) of the King my Lord, ‘Why should you tremble before the chief of the _’Abiri_(326) (Hebrews) and the rulers fear the end? So now they must send from the presence of the King my Lord.’ Behold I say that the land of the King my Lord is ruined. So now they must send to the King my Lord, and let the King my Lord know this; behold the King my Lord has placed a garrison to stop the way ... (_Bel’amu_ or _Yankhamu_?) ... of kings ... chiefs of the garrison ... the king as master to his land ... as to his land she has rebelled, the (lands) of the King my Lord—the whole of it. _Ilimelec_(327) cuts off all the King’s land. And let one warn the King as to his land. I myself speak pleading with the King my Lord and (for once?) let the King my Lord behold the entreaties. And the wars are mighty against me, and (I am not receiving any pledge?) from the King my Lord. And let an order return from the King (my Lord). Whether will he not order chiefs for garrison? And let him be kind, and let the King my Lord regard the entreaties. This tribe behold O King my Lord has risen up. Lo the _Paka_ they have expelled. I say the lands of the King my Lord are ruined. Dost not thou hear this same of me? They have destroyed all the rulers. There is no ruler now O King my Lord. Let the King give his countenance to the chiefs; and whether shall the chiefs of the Egyptian soldiers (_pitati_) remain at rest? They have lingered O King my Lord. The lands are failing to the King my Lord. The _Hebrew_ chiefs plunder all the King’s lands. Since the chiefs of the Egyptian soldiers (_pitati_) have gone away quitting the lands this year O King my Lord, and since there is no chief of the Egyptian soldiers (_pitati_) there is ruin to the lands of the King my Lord. They have ... O King my Lord, and _Adonizedek_ (is) dust ... messages (are asked?) of the King my Lord, there is destruction by the foe of the lands of the King my Lord.”
