The house of B1, which borders the house of C and […] Eanna, is placed as a pledge. It is pledged to the creditor in lieu of paying interest (antichretic pledge). 8 years they will dwell in the house. They will repair (batqu ṣabātu) the walls (asurrû) and renew the roof (ūru šanû). If the costs for the work they perform (dullu epēšu) and for the bricks (libittu), reed (qanû) and beams (gušūru) make less than ¼ (shekels) of silver, they will charge (manû) B1 with the expenses.
