Loan of dates: B1, B2 and B3 owe A 380 kor (68,400 l) of dates. They have sworn (tamû) to the creditor by Bēl, Nabû and the king of Babylon that they will give the dates in Arahsamna (VIII), in the measure (mašīhu) of 1 pānu, in the enclosure (haṣāru), in one delivery (ina muhhi išten ritti). Each is responsible for the other (ištēn pūt šanî našû); the one who is available (qerbu) must pay (eṭēru). The dates are meant for the white silver (kaspu peṣû) for the “fitting-out” (pasa’du) given to C by the rab banê. 13 witnesses and the scribe.
