O sorceress and bewitcher, I am heaven, so you cannot touch me. I am the earth, so you cannot seep over me. I am thorn of bāltu-bush so you cannot tread on me. I am scorpion sting, so you cannot touch me. I am a lofty mountain, so your magic, your spells, your witchcraft, your evil machinations, cannot approach me, cannot come near me.” — The Magical Ceremony Maqlû

O sorceress and bewitcher,
I am heaven, so you cannot touch me.
I am the earth, so you cannot seep over me.
I am thorn of bāltu-bush so you cannot tread on me.
I am scorpion sting, so you cannot touch me.
I am a lofty mountain, so your magic,
your spells, your witchcraft, your evil machinations,
cannot approach me, cannot come near me.
