Paraphrase
Purchase of slave: fB sells fC to fA for 4 minas of cut silver of 1/8 alloy. This silver comes from fA’s dowry chest (quppu) that she gave to her mother, fB, from the 1st year of Darius. A clause follows concerning fB’s responsibility regarding legal implications about fC, such as lawsuits (pūt sihî), claims (pūt pāqirāni) and matters concerning the status of a royal slave woman (amat šarrūti) and free citizen (mār banûti). 4 witnesses and the scribe (Marduk-bēlšunu/Mušēzib-Marduk//[Sîn]-šadûnu?).
 
fA = fKusippitu/Šamaš-zēru-ibni//Rēˀi-sīsê; fB = fTabluṭu/Bēl-iddin/Rēˀi-sīsê (mother of fA); fC = fBānītu-rēˀûa (slave of fB)
