1Attestations
SBSB: Standard Babylonian (ca. 1000–0 BCE) lā id-li-ʾ (∥ id-lu-ʾ, id-li-ʾ-ú) kalbu ṣalmu Farber 1990, 315: 10 “(may they draw water where no unclean woman has washed her hands, no tabooed woman has washed her clothes, no cave bird has flapped its wings,) no black dog has …-ed”. See Farber ib. p. 316 n. 60.
Discussion
The context of water may suggest, despite the different vowel-class, a connection with dalû II “to draw water with a bucket.”
