Paraphrase
Promissory note for assessed field rent, to be delivered in dates.
B owes 14 kor of dates, the assessed field rent (imitti eqli) on land located at the Hazuzu-ditch which belongs to C's children from the Egibi family: part of it belongs to the dowry (nudunnû) of fA1 and fA2, and another part to the inheritance shares (pūt zitti) of A3 and his brothers. The dates should be delivered in one instalment according to the 36 liters measure (pānu-measure) to the courtyard (haṣāru). Deliver is due in Arahsamna (VIII). He should also deliver the usual by-products of the date cultivation: for each kor of dates he shall give a load of spathes (tuhallu), spadices (gipû), (and) fibres (mangagu), and 2 darīku-containers. This is followed by the laconic statement: 60 loads (60-šu biltu) Witnesses.
 
fA1 = fIna-Esagil-bēlet(/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi), sister of A3; fA2 = fNanāya-ēṭirat(/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi), sister of A3; A3=  Marduk-nāṣir-apli/Itti-Marduk-balāṭu//Egibi; B = Nabû-iddin/Kīnāya; C = Itti-Marduk-balāṭu/Nabû-ahhē-iddin//Egibi
