Paraphrase Promissory note for silver, within the framework of a business partnership (harrānu). Fragmentary
B1 and B2 owe a broken amount of silver (in minas) to A, slave of C. Possibly, it concerns the purchase price of dates ([šīm suluppē (?)]), considering the fact that the delivery date is in Tašrīt (VII) and delivery is by means of boats at the Borsippa canal. The document further refers to 100 onion strings (gidlu) belonging to D that E on account of (ana muhhi) .... At this point the text becomes fragmentary. Reference is made to the assets of their business partnership (harrānu) and the business investment (harrānu) of someone whose name is broken off. Cf. BM33133 (= Nbn 466). Names of 3 witnesses and the scribe: Lâbāši/Zēria//Nabāya
 
A = Nergal-rēṣūa, slave of C; B1 = Ea-nāṣir/Mušallim//Šangû-Nanāya; B2 = Rēmūt-Bēl/Bēl-zēru-ibni//Šabbā’; C = Iddin-Marduk/Iqīšāya//Nūr-Sîn; D = Nabû-rêmu-šukun; E = [broken off]
