Paraphrase | Sale of a slave. A1 and his wife fA2 sold their slave C (part of fA2’s dowry) to B1 and his wife fB2. Now, B1 and fB2 sell this same slave to D, a courtier (rēš šarri), for a purchase price amounting to 1/3 mina and 5 shekels of silver. Then, the text mentions A1 and fA2 again, but the verb of this sentence is broken: from what follows it seems they haven't received their silver yet. At the end of the tablet it is stated that B1 and fB2 (eventually) pay them the 1/3 mina and 5 shekels of silver through the proxy E. Names of 3 witnesses and the scribe. A1 = Etel-pî/Ṣillāya//Nubu; fA2 = fHanašu, wife of A1; B1 = Nergal-uballiṭ/Kudurru; fB2 = fHibtāya/Anni-šunu, wife of B1; C = Silīm-Bēl; D = Nabû-ṣābit-qāti, rēš šarri; E = Nabû-ahhē-iddin/Šulāya//Egibi |
