Paraphrase

Note on the delivery of oil. Dated.

This small tablet registers the delivery(?) of a broken amount of containers (nēsepu) of oil  to or by Gimillu, son of Nabû-taqbi-līšir. The absence of any verb or preposition before the personal name does not allow any certain interpretation. In the last line of the obverse only Nergal-šumu-ibni’s name is preserved, the rest being broken off. On the reverse the scribe wrote only the date.
