Paraphrase
Receipt of silver from the head of the Egibi family. Payment for rikis qabli.
A, by order of (ina qibi) C, receives payment (mahāru) from B for his rikis qabli duty. The amount, 1/3 mina and 5 shekels of medium quality silver, of which 1/8 is alloy, is paid for serving in the King's army (ana alāki ana pāni šarri), which means that A will serve instead of B. The sum is in addition to (elat) the previously paid 3 minas of medium quality silver, of which 1/8 is alloy. Names of 3 witnesses and the scribe.
