- Sale of a slave.
A1 and his wife fA2, of their own free will, sell their female slave fC to B for the hariṣ-price amounting to 1/3 mina and 5 shekels of silver. The sellers guarantee against (suits brought by) a person acting unlawfully (sēhû) or a person claiming (pāqirānu) that fC is a free person (mār banê). A broken passage at the end of the tablet informs that something/someone of the king (details are broken off) (wr. [..A]B?.A.MEŠ), that D [and?] A1, took (našû), has become scarce (maṭû) and they gave it back to E, the governor of the sealand (šakin tâmti). (The deal has been concluded) with fF, A’s mother-in-law, consent (ina ašābi). Names of 6 witnesses and the scribe.
