Paraphrase

Multiple transactions of different types: receipt of sacrificial sheep and allocation of sheep for fattening. Dated.

The Eanna received (mahāru Stat.) back from its offering shepherd (rēˀi ginê) the 7 ewes (lahru), 2 male lambs (kalūmu) and 2 female lambs (parratu) that had been entrusted (paqdu) to him: in total, 11 sheep and goats (ṣēnu) from the temple's general income (irbu).  After a lacuna, the text continues on the reverse by listing 2 individuals (A1 and A2) as well as 6 more irbu-sheep destined for (ana) the fattening stable (urû), that were allocated to (and still with) B (ina pāni).  The number 409 is written on the lower edge of the tablet, followed by one or more broken (and possibly also erased) signs.

A1 = broken; A2 = Šamaš-zēru-ibni/Iddina; B = Bibēya
