- Legacy Paraphrase
List cattle put at the disposal one individual. Dated.
A has at his disposal (ina pāni) the following sheep and goats (ṣēnu): 30 rams (puḫālu), 220 ewes (laḫru), 30 full grown he-goats*, 50 full grown she-goats (udu.máš.salme), 5 he-goats (urīṣu), 4 she-goats (enzu), 1 young he-goat (gadû), and 2 young she-goats (unīqu); a total of 342 sheep and goats.
The scribe then realized he did not register all the animals and added that (additional) 79 sheep and goats are at A’s disposal.
* restoring udu.máš.galme is based on parallels in e.g. Sack CD 35, 36.
A= Nergal-ēreš
