Paraphrase
Receipt of dates (imittu-lease) by a slave of the Treasurer from a slave of the Egibi family.
A, slave of C and messenger (mār šipri) of D, C’s majordomo (rab bīti), receives (mahāru) 15 kor of imittu-dates from B, slave of E. The dates are C’s share (zittu) in the income from impost (imittu) for Darius’ 21st year from a field located along the Rab-kāṣir Canal. He shares the income with (itti) the Egibi brothers (“E and his brothers”). C appears here without his official title (of Treasurer). Names of 4 witnesses and the scribe.
