About the purchase of land: undertaking to pay the purchase price to the seller’s creditors.
A undertakes to pay 55 shekels of silver to fB1 and her son B2: this sum corresponds to the price of a field purchased from fC1, fC2 and fC3, and the silver is his at his disposal (ina pānīšu). fB1 and B2 are the seller’s creditors (rāšû): A will pay them off on the 25th of Ulūl (VI), as established in a trial whose verdict has been written down in a document that fB1 and B2 handed over to A. Names of 5 witnesses (the judges, dayyāne) and the scribe. The trial mentioned in this text is recorded in BM31961.
