Paraphrase
Memorandum about a delivery of onions. Partial receipt.
It concerns the 150000 strings (gidlu) of onions that had been delivered to D and about which C wrote a message (šipirtu) to B1 and B2  (apparently, urging them to deliver the onions  to him). The present tablet is written in order not to forget (tahsistu la mašê) that A1, C’s slave, and A2 received 124000 strings (gidlu) of (the said 150000) onion strings on behalf of (ina našparti) C, from B1 and B2. and that 18000 of them belong to E. Written in the presence (ina ušuzzu) of 2 witnesses. No scribe.
 
A1 = Arad-Bēl, slave of C; A2 = Nabû-aplu-iddin/Šilāya/Esagilia; B1 = Nabû-ēṭir; B2 = Nādinu; C = Iddin-Marduk(/Iqīšāya//Nūr-Sîn); D = Zababa-ahu-iddin; E = Šūzubu
