Paraphrase Receipt for silver. Purchase price for onions.  
Concerns 2 minas of marked silver which A1, A2 and A3 gave to B in order to buy onions. A2 receives the silver (back) from B and is paid off (mahāru-eṭēru). The receipt is in accordance with what A instructed (qibi) in the register (giṭṭu) on 1 mina of silver. The men who provided B with silver have no affiliation but all have titles: A1 is mayor domo (rab bīti) on behalf of the Kudurru family (Bīt K), A2 is once called scribe (ṭupšarru) and once priest (šangû), and A3 is a alphabet scribe (sepīru).
 
A1 = Nabû-šarru-bulliṭ, mayor domo (rab bīti) of the Kudurru-family; A2 = Iddin-Bēl (ṭupšarru). (šangû) (scribe); A3 = Nergal-šumu-iddin, alphabet scribe (sepīru); B = Širik/Iddināya (= Marduk-nāṣir-apli/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi); C = Nabû-ittannu/Arad-Bēl
