Paraphrase Promissory note for assessed field rent (imittu), to be delivered in dates.
B1 and B2 owe 65 kor of dates to A1, A2 and his brothers as well as to A3. The dates are assessed field rent (imittu eqli) and should be delivered to the courtyard (haṣāru) in Arahsamna (VIII). The debtors assume warranty for each other. They should also deliver the usual by-products of the date cultivation: for each kor of dates they shall give spathes (tuhallu), fibres (mangagu), spadices (gipû), 42 loads of firewood, (and) 4 darīku-containers. In addition, there is a promissory note for imittu-rent between the debtors and A1 that is still pending. They (debtors and creditors?) should not change (enû) their accounts (epuš nikkassi). Witnesses.
