Paraphrase
Promissory note for silver (damaged): B1 and B2 owe A 2 minas of white cut unstamped silver of 1/8 alloy, [x]100s+30 kor of dates and 5 kor of barley. The silver debt bears a monthly interest of 1 shekel of silver per mina (20%). The clause concerning the delivery dates of the commodities is broken. 3 kor (c. 540 l) of planted land in Tīl-gubbi, next to those of C1 and C2, measured from the Euphrates shore, are A’s security. Broken clauses concerning the harvest from this land follow. B1 and B2 vouch for one another. 10 witnesses and the scribe: Nidintu/Līšir//Išparu.
