Sale of butcher’s prebend of Išhara: B sold voluntarily (ina migir libbišu) to A his butcher’s prebend in Ešasurra, the temple of Išhara in Šuanna, for 3 minas of cut silver of 1/8 alloy. The prebend comprises ox and sheep from the royal offerings, offerings of the kāribu, ginû-offerings, qiqqû-offerings, offerings of the eššēšu-festivals, bayyānūtu-offerings, greeting of the temple (šalām bīti) offerings, coils (tīrānu), brain(?) (g[ab]bu), gan ṣēli-meat, trimmings (nukāsātu), epigastrium (karšu), naṣrappu-meat, 2 ankle cuts (kursinnu), omasum (riqītu), bāb urkāti-meat, hilidamu-meat, and fatty tissue around the intestines (hinṣu) not cut off (qarāšu), for the whole year. B receives the money from A and is thus paid. Standard final clause excluding further litigation follows. 14 witnesses, including a judge (Nabû-bēlšunu//[?]), and the scribe (Bēl-bullissu/Nabû-aplu-iddin//Saggilāya).
