Paraphrase Interim settlement of accounts within the framework of a business partnership (harranu)
A1 and A2 Concerns 50 shekels in cash (hāṭu), 15;0.0.0 kor of dates valued at (ana kaspi manû) 15 shekels of silver, 30 beer barrels valued at 45 shekels of silver, 20 shekels of silver that are due from C, 15 shekels of silver that are at D's disposal, and 5 shekels of silver that are at E's disposal. This total amount of 2 minas and 30 shekels of silver belong to the business partnership of A and B. The part of the silver that is overdue (ina ṣēri nemerkû) B should pay back to the business (ana harrāni nasāku) from his own assets (ultu ramāni), or in other words: not from the profits that he made with it. He is entitled to take (našû) whatever exceeds this (utru). This arrangement does pertain (elat) to a broken amount of silver that is at E's disposal.
