42. So Ba'al does sit down and dwell in his palace,
43. Neither king nor commoner
44. on earth shall install himself on his throne!
45. "I will (not) send a courier/message to the Divine Mot,
46. a herald/dispatch to the Beloved of El, the youth, Ghazir, the Hero.
47. Mot -may be/is- proclaiming//calls out in his soul, (to ask) that Mot invite (him) into his throat
    (i.e., anyone that would dare to occupy Ba'al's throne),
48. The Beloved one thinks in his heart:
49. For I alone am king over the gods,
50. give fattness to gods and men,
51. satisfy the multitudes of the earth."
52. Then surely calls Ba'al
53. to his two pages:
54. a. "Attend to me, Gapen and Ugar,

54. b. amid the darkness,
55. where daylight is obscured,
56. Amid the tall shaggy ostriches,

59. [ I shall bind the snow ]
60. [the lightning ]

19. lest like a kid in his gullet!
20. you both be crushed to pieces/carried away

22. scorches/ burns/ is glowing hot,

25. From a distance of/Traversing/At each step
    a thousand tracts, ten thousand fields;
26. At the feet of Mot
27. bow/do homage - and - fall down/adore him,
28. prostrate yourselves and
29. pay him homage/do him honor.
30. And say unto El's son, Mot, Death,
31. Repeat to the Darling of El,
32. that youngster/hero: 'Message
33. of Ba'al, the Powerful,
34. Word of the Mighty Warrior:
35. My house I have built
36. of silver,
37. My palace, indeed, of gold, . . .

{Of the precious cedars of Lebanon,
Of most pure lapis lazuli.}

47. [Then away speed Gapen of the Vine] and Ugar of the Field
    {unto the Pit of Mot from whom they get his message}

1. "When/for all that you smote/killed//If thou goest fighting Lotan (=Leviathan), the Slippery/Fleeing/Evasive Serpent,

7. a. thou hast escaped descent

7. b. into the throat of El's son, Divine Mot, Death,
8. into the watery depths, the gorge of the Beloved of El, the Youth, Ghazir, the Hero!"
9. Depart and tarry not do the gods;
10. Then indeed they set their faces towards
11. Ba'al on the Heights of Tsaphon, mount of the North.
12. Then say Gapen and Ugar:
13. "Message of El's son, Divine Mot, Death,
14. Word of the Beloved of El, the youth, Ghazir, the Hero:
15. Then mine is the appetite of lions (in) the waste/like that of a lioness// The appetites of lions naturally crave sheep;
16. as the desire/longing of a dolphin is - in/for the sea;
17. or a pool attracts/seizes wild oxen,
    a spring does the like to hinds/deer;
18. Driver: If in truth it is my desire to consume clay,
    Coogan: When I have the appetite for an ass,
19. Here then with both my hands I eat it,
20. If my sevenfold portions are served unto me,
21. or if the cup is mixed by Nahar, the River!
22. Ba'al has invited me with my brothers,

24. But it is to eat bread with my brothers
    ALT: Let us have a banquet here, O Ba'al . . . . .
25. and to drink wine with my kinsfolk
26. Have you then forgotten, Ba'al, that I can surely transfix you.
27. [ . . . . . ] you
28. for all that/When/If now thou smotest/killed/goest fighting
    Lotan (=Leviathan), the Slippery/Evasive/Fleeing Serpent,
29. made an end of/finished off/to destroy
    the Wriggling/Twisting/Tortuous/Slant Serpent,
30. Shalyat the Tyrant of seven heads/ The seven-headed monster (of might),
31. The heavens will burn up/wither and droop, (like the folds of your robes . . . .)
    ALT: thou wouldst but wear thyself out;
    ALT: the girdle of thy robe, the sky, would become loosed
    ALT: Thou wouldst weaken, thy loins ungirded.

32. for I myself will crush you in pieces,
33. I will eat (you) . . . . . (and) forearms.

32. Here I am the one who's been swallowed up;
33. As if a stopper has been placed upon me;
    drained of strength as I am, I am the one that is dying,

34. Now surely, indeed, you must descend
    into the throat of Divine Mot, El's son, Death,
    
35. into the watery depths/pit of the Beloved of El, Ghazir, the Hero!"

2. One lip down to the earth, one lip to the heavens;
3. Mot stretches tongue to the stars.
4. Ba'al must enter his maw/innards; and must descend/ go down into his mouth,
5. like an olive-stuffed bread, Like the produce of earth, the fruit of the trees.
6. Afraid is Ba'al the Powerful;
7. Terrified is the Rider on the Clouds:
8. "Leave/ Depart/ Be gone!; Speak to El's son Mot/Death,
9. repeat to the Beloved of El, the youth, Ghazir the Hero:
10. 'Message of Ba'al the Powerful,
    the word of the Mightiest of Warriors:
11. Hail/Be gracious, Divine Mot, El's son Death!
12. I am your slave, I am your bondsman forever.' "
13. The gods leave and tarry not;
14. Then indeed they set their faces toward the Divine Mot
15. in (the midst of) his city, the Swamp/Mire-y/Hamriya,
    to the pit where is/Muck - the low throne that he sits on,
    Down unto the Pit of Mot he descends, to the throne that he sits on
    Gaster: To the depth where is the seat of his abiding.
    Driver: Where a pit is the throne on which he sits.
    
16. (to the) filth of the earth, which is his estate.
    His filthy land of inheritance.
    ALT: Filth, the land of his heritage.
    Phlegm, the land of inheritance.
17. They lift their voices and cry:
    The message of mightiest Ba'al,
18. the word of the Mightiest of Warriors:
19. 'Hail/Be gracious, El's son/Divine Mot/Death!
20. I am your servant/slave, I am your bondman forever.'
    Rejoice did the Divine Mot, El's son, Death.
21. He lifted up his voice and cried:
22. How Ba'al comes to make merry along with my companions,
23. How Hadad, tarries awhile with my comrades!

22. How is it Ba'al invites me with my brothers,
23. How is it Hadad calls me with my kinsfolk!
    [ . . . . . ] my bread
24. [ . . . . . ] he has cut up
25. [ . . . . . ] ?I am rejoicing
26. [ . . . . . ] depart

22. "How shall Ba'al go on insulting me?
23. Why, the Hadad Thunderer is scared out of his wits!
24. Those that fight with me are [always la]id low (in the end);
25. [as with] a butcher's [kni]fe
26. [I smite them that] would smite me!"

Then Ba'al does depart and tarry not;
He sets his face toward El's Beloved, Mot,
in the midst of his city, Hamriya, the Bog,
Down into the pit where is the low throne that he sits on,
to the filth of the earth, which is Mot's estate.
One lip to the earth, one lip to the heavens, Mot stretches tongue to the stars.
Ba'al enters his maw and descends into his mouth,
like olive stuffed bread, Like the produce of earth, the fruit of the trees.
Mot makes him like a lamb in his mouth,
like a kid in his gullet is Ba'al crushed and swallowed.
Then Ba'al returns not to his palace,
Mighty Rider of Clouds comes not back,

** The twain messangers depart and tarry not;

and he will put his voice in the clouds
and he will flash lightning to the earth.
