English: Inscription in Babylonian, in the Xerxes I inscription at Van, 5th century BCE
"Ahuramazda is the great god, the greatest god
who created the sky and created the land and created humans
Who gave prosperity to the humans
Who made Xerxes king
King of many kings, being the only ruler of the totality of all lands
“I am Xerxes, the great king, the king of kings,
the king of the lands, king of all the languages,
king of the great and large land,
the son of king Darius the Achaemenian”
The king Xerxes says:
“the king Darius, my father, praised be Ahuramazda,
made a lot of good,
and this mountain, he ordered to work its cliff
and he wrote nothing on it
so, me, I ordered to write here.
