Paraphrase
Promissory note for silver.
B owes 2 minas of silver to A (ša A ina muhhi B), to be delivered in Kislīm (IX). This is what remains (rīhtu) to be paid for the purchase of a plot of land (eqlu) at the outlet (bābu) of the ancient Kutha canal, after it turned out that the field (zēru) was larger than what was calculated at the time of the sale. Names of 2 witnesses and the scribe. The receipt for this silver is recorded in BM30532.
 
A = Šamaš-aplu-uṣur/Šamaš-ina-tēšê-ēṭir//Šangû-Šamaš; B = Itti-Marduk-balāṭu/Nabû-ahhē-iddin//Egibi.
