This article offers an edition of the tablet CBS 12590 (HAV 5, pl. 7, VIII), which contains a Sumerian  širgida -hymn to the god Lulal dating to the Old Babylonian period. An introduction discussing Lulal provides an overview of this little-known god’s personal characteristics, divine roles, and local cult, especially as they are represented in literary and liturgical compositions (with further evidence provided by god lists and litanies, royal inscriptions, lexical lists, and administrative documents). A particularly striking feature of the composition is the number of rather specific potential intertextual references to the imagery of other gods including Ninurta (and the composition Ninurta’s Exploits), Ninĝirsu, and Utu, and possibly even the mortal king Šulgi.
