Letter about uncooperative personnel.
Probably from Babylon,
A writes to the temple administrator (šatammu) (of Esagil?) about B1–4, whom the king entrusted (ušuzzu) to C, and did not report to their duty (magāru-ma dullu epēšu). The king orders that the temple administrator makes sure these men are brought handcuffed (izqātu) to C.
Additionally, A urges the temple administrator to take care of some temple-serfs (širku) who were not paid for Simān (III) and Dûzu (IV). According to A, the temple-serfs are starving (berû) and furious (ba’āšu Stat.).
