Paraphrase
Receipt for barley
A receives (mahāru) barley from B. This is the yield (ebūru) of the field from the 12th and the 13th year of Darius. Each of the partners has taken a copy of the present document. It is further pointed out that A received from B the entire purchase price (mimma ina šīmī). But it is not immediately clear whether or how this relates to the previous mentioned receipt of barley. At the end of line 11, there are signs in alphabetic script. Names of 2 witnesses and the scribe: A.
 
A = Širku/Iddināya//Egibi (aka Marduk-nāṣir-apli/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi); B = Nabû-naṣir/Nādinu//Bābūtu
