Paraphrase
Payment of the pending compensation of dowry: On the first day of Dûzu (IV) B2 and his brothers will pay to fA (their stepmother) 3 minas of silver. This is instead of the dowry (nudunnû) which her husband B1, father of the brothers, promised to give her in addition to (elat) the slave woman fC who is also part of the dowry. The transaction is concluded in the presence of (ina mahar) the judges (dayyānu) Bēl-iddin, Nargiya and Munahhiš-Marduk each of whom also put a sealing (kunukku) on the tablet. Except for the scribe no other witnesses are mentioned.
