rev. breaks off |

The form of nepiš- ‘sky’ probably refers to a sky en miniature, i.e. a baldachin. See the comment on the transliteration.
Possibly to be restored in analogy to KUB 38.4 obv. I 6 [2?] ˹a˺-šu-ša-aš AN.BAR GE₆ (erasure) ḫ[ar-zi ‘[He] h[as 2?] ašuša- of black iron’. In general, ašuša- presumably denotes a kind of ring (sometimes more specifically earrings). In the present context it might refer to earrings of the god, but also to rings that are part of the horse tack or rider’s equipment.
Probably to be restored in analogy KUB 38.4 obv. I 4 ‘in the right hand he holds a dupau-x …’, i.e. ‘a striking weapon’.
Probably to be restored in analogy to KUB 38.4 obv. I 5′ KÙ.BABBAR ‘of silver’.
Cf. the comment on the transliteration.
The hapax karzana- probably denotes a stick-shaped object. As an implement belonging to the equipment, it might be a weapon such as a sword or a rod worn by the deity as insignia. Differently Ünal A. 2019a, 699, who apparently equates the form with the neuter stem karza(n)-, translating it as ‘weaver’s utensil’. For a detailed discussion see the introduction. i.e., probably as an offering to the deity.

Or, ‘gold’.
Or ‘knob’. For attestations and the meaning see HW² III/2, 701–702.

In analogy to rev. 6′–7′, possibly one or two cola are to be restored after ‘[let it be] unfa[vorable]’ with the first one stating that an oracle outcome was obtained and the second one stating the outcome.
