Paraphrase

Lease of a house. The Eanna leases the house of Anu-aḫu-iddin/Mušallim-Marduk, an oblate (širku) of the Lady of Uruk, next to the house of Innin-zēru-ušabši/Balāṭu, to his son Šamaš-kāṣir, since Anu-aḫu-iddin could not pay his rent. Šamaš-kāṣir is to pay a yearly sum of 3 shekel silver, half at the beginning and half in the middle of the year, to take care of the house (as is normal procedure), and to take possession on the 21st Šabāṭu (XI). The procedure is under the supervision of  Nabû-aḫu-iddin, royal representative (ša rēš šarri) and commissioner (bēl piqitti) of Eanna. Three witnesses and Nādinu/Bēl-aḫḫē-iqīša//Egibi, the scribe.
