Paraphrase
Promissory note for barley (and) silver. Fixation of interest.
B owes 12 kor of barley (and) ½ minas of medium quality silver, of which one-eighth is alloy to A. The barley should be delivered in Ayyār (II) at the canal and the silver debt will bear a 20% interest from Ayyār (II) onwards, to be paid on a monthly basis. In addition, there are three earlier promissory notes for 84 kor of dates and 2 minas of medium quality silver, of which one-eighth is alloy, which B still has to pay. He has also still to deliver 5 kor of barley in Kislīm (IX) (i.e., next month), and if he fails to do so, he should pay 50 shekels of white silver instead of the barley. Witnesses.
