Chapter 6  
     
1.
When Marduk heard the word of the gods,  
2.
His heart prompted him and he devised [a cunning plan].  
3.
He opened his mouth and unto Ea [he spake],  
4.
[That which] he had conceived in his heart he imparted [unto him]:  
5.
"My blood will I take and bone will I [fashion],  
6.
"I will make man, that man may be our slave and toil for us.  
7.
"I will create man who shall inhabit [the earth],"  
8.
That the service of the gods may be established, and that [their] shrines [may be built].  
9.
But I will alter the ways of the gods, and I will change [their paths];  
10.
Together shall they be oppressed and unto evil shall [they ...]."  
11.
And Ea answered him and spake the word:  
12.
"[...] the [...] of the gods I have [changed]  
13.
...] ... and one ... [...]  
14.
[...shall be de]stroyed and men will I [...]
