聖なる衣を身にまとったせいで。<br />
アンがあなたを整えた(?)せいで。<br />
あなたが(その)鼻を地面に近づけなかったせいで。<br />
唇を塵に押しつけなかったせいで<ref>Karahashi, 2004, pages111–118</ref>。

Mountain, because of your elevation, because of your height,イナンナはシュメールの天の神アンに、エビフ山を破壊することを許すよう懇願した。Because of your goodness, because of your beauty,Because you wore a holy garment,Because An organized(?) you,Because you did not bring (your) nose close to the ground,Because you did not press (your) lips in the dust.{{sfn|Karahashi|2004|pages=111–118}}</poem>}}
Inanna petitions to [[Anu|An]], the Sumerian god of the heavens, to allow her to destroy Mount Ebih.{{sfn|Karahashi|2004|page=111}} An warns Inanna not to attack the mountain,{{sfn|Karahashi|2004|page=111}} but she ignores his warning and proceeds to attack and destroy Mount Ebih regardless.{{sfn|Karahashi|2004|page=111}} In the conclusion of the myth, she explains to Mount Ebih why she attacked it.{{sfn|Karahashi|2004|pages=111–118}} In Sumerian poetry, the phrase "destroyer of Kur" is occasionally used as one of Inanna's epithets.{{sfn|Kramer|1961|page=82}}
