Paraphrase

Fragment of a larger tablet that listed a total of 17 temple oblates (širku):

Only a few signs that composed the personal names are still readable on the tablet. These men are said to be “of” (ša, possibly “under the responsibility of”) Bēl-šumu-iškun. In the last extant lines, only the expression “in frontof him” (ana panišu) can be identified. Rest broken off.
