Paraphrase

Appointment of Nanāya-ēreš/Gimillu to the position of irrigation controller (gugallu) of the field (bīt ritti) of Innin-zēr-ibni/Rēmūtu. Nidinti-Bēl/Nabû-mukīn-zēri//Dābibī, bishop (šatammu) of Eanna, and Nabû-aḫu-iddin, royal representative (ša rēš šarri) and commissioner (bēl piqitti) of Eanna, appointed him to the position. He is to supply the fixed estimate of dates to the temple and pay half of the tax due to the king (nāmurtu); the usual by-products will serve as fodder. The text then provides for the (personal?) provision to Nanāya-ēreš of a field (bīt ritti) owned by Arrabi and Innin-zēr-ušabši, located in Lasūtu, in exchange for the field belonging to Marduk-šumu-uṣur, Ina-ṣilli-Nanāya and Nanāya-ibni, next to the Ḫarri-ša-Lābāši-canal, which is transferred to Marduk-šāpik-zēru. Five witnesses and Nādinu, Kīnāya, Murānu, and Balāṭu, scribes of Eanna.
