Paraphrase
About a plot of land with a house built on it. Head of the Egibi family is among the neighbours.
All that is preserved of this fragmentary tablet is the description of the land. It measures 24 reeds and is located in the neighbourhood called Šu’anna within Babylon. A and B own neighbouring houses [...]. Their houses (or the land under discussion, uncl.) continues down (murradu, lit. "descent, slope") into the Hubur street (sūqu) as far as (the house of) C. The remainder of the tablet may have recorded a sale. Names of 4 witnesses and the scribe.

A=Bēl-erība/Nabû-bēlšunu//Abu-ul-īde; B=Nabû-bullissu/Nabû-šumu-iškun; C=Šiški/Iddinaya//Egibi (=Marduk-nāṣir-apli/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi)
