Paraphrase

Innin-šumu-uṣur/Bēl-aḫḫē-iddin (IŠU) and 6 other men owe Nabû-aḫḫē-bulliṭ/Ša-Nabû-šū, scribe of Eanna, 37.5 shekels of silver, payable in m.XI. If they can’t pay this sum, they will give 7.5 shekels of silver in m.XI, and Šamaš-aḫḫē-uṣur, slave of IŠU, will belong (pānu dagālu N) to NAB accounting for the remaining 30 shekels of silver. IŠU and the other 6 men guarantee for clearing the slave from claims (murruqu). Mutual guarantee.

[…] silver was given to them in (tp)Dūr-Kebīnu for work (dullu) for the king on a dam (mušannītu).

The 6 other men are: Iddin-Marduk/Bēl-aḫu-iddin, Nabû-mukīn-zēri/Bēl-ibni, Iqīšāya/Nūrea, Nabû-mukīn-apli/Nabû-zēru-ibni, Gimillu/Šumu-ukīn, and Ištar-šumu-ēreš/Ša-Nabû-šū.

5 witnesses.

Scribe: Silim-Bēl/Tabnēa.
