Say to the king of Egypt on behalf of Ashur-uballit, the king of Assyria, as follows:
May it be well with you, your household, your country, your chariots, and your troops.
I have sent my envoy to you to visit you and your country. Until now, my predecessors have not sent word. Today, I have personally sent word to you. I have delivered one quality chariot, two horses and one date-stone of genuine lapis lazuli as your goodwill gift.
As for the envoy whom I sent to visit you, do not detain him. Let him visit, then let him depart. Let him see your hospitality and the hospitality of your country, then let him depart.
