Paraphrase
Receipt for the partial payment of a silver debt.
Concerning the promissory note (u’iltu) for the total amount of 5 mina of stamped(?) silver (ginnu) and 20 empty barrels belonging to A that are due from B.
Of this total debt A receives (mahāru) from B without interest according to his promissory note 1 2/3 mina and 5 shekels of stamped(?) silver (ginnu) and 20 empty barrels. A receives from B 20 shekels of stamped(?) silver (ginnu) as rent (idū) for his house. A didn’t receive from B his household goods (udê bīti). Names of 4 witnesses and the scribe: Iddin-Bēl/Nabû-udammiq//Nādin-še'im.
See also BM30701 (Dar. 280) in which A and B establish a business partnership. No doubt that the silver and the barrels in this receipt between these two business partners are business assets.
 
A= Marduk-nāṣir-apli/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi; B= Bēl-iqīša/Lâbāši//Pahāru
