Translation by Nina G. Garsoïan
And he caught up with Uṙnayr king of Ałuankʿ, who was fleeing, and struck him over the head with many blows of the shaft of his lance, saying, "Be grateful that you are a king and wear a crown, for I will not kill a king, even though great harm come to me." And he allowed him to escape with eight horsemen and go to the realm of Ałuankʿ.
