Paraphrase
Sale of a slave.
A, of his own free will, sells his slave C, who is leprous (garbānu) and has the names of his previous owners fD1 and fD2 written (šaṭāru) on his hand, to B for its hariṣ-price amounting to 53 shekels of medium quality silver, of which 1/8 is alloy. The seller acknowledges that he has received (eṭēru) the silver of the purchase price for his slave from B. Should a claimant arise with regard to C, then A will free C from claims (murruqu) and hand him over to B. Names of 6 witnesses and the scribe.
 
A = Mušēzib-Marduk/Marduk-šumu-uṣur//Rab-banê; B = Marduk-nāṣir-apli/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi; C = Arad-Madānu; fD1 = fTakiltu; fD2 = fBēletu
