Debt note for silver.
owed (ina muhhi) 1 mina of silver, the remainder (rēhu) of 2 minas 13⅓ shekels, to B.
Now, the Eanna temple takes B’s place as the creditor. As a result, A now owes 1 mina of silver to the Eanna temple. He will pay it in Ṭebēt (X).
The tablet is drafted in the presence (ina ušuzzu) of C, the supervisor (bēl piqitti) of Eanna.
Names of 4 witnesses and a scribe.
This document should be understood against the background of A’s outstanding debts to the temple and the latter’s need to recover them from A’s assets.
