Paraphrase
Undertaking to transmit an order to the head of the Egibi family requiring him to pay silver.
B should pay 1/3 minas and 1 shekel of white silver which he helds on contract (ina pāni) to A1 and A2 in Nisan (I). The silver is from either the debt (u'iltu) or salary (idū) that is owed to the two men. Reference to an order (šipirtu) from C which should be brought before B so that he pays the silver (našû-nadānu). Cf. BM30453 (=Dar 573). Names of 3 witnesses and the scribe. C's brother (Bēl-erība) is among the witnesses.

A1=Nabû-natan/Šellibi; A2=Aḫušunu/Šamšaya; B=Širku/Iddinaya//Egibi (=Marduk-nāṣir-apli/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi); C=Nergal-ēṭir (=?Nergal-ēṭir/Kalbaya//Šumu-libši)
