Paraphrase

Bēl-nādin-apli/Zēr-Bābili//Ileʼʼi-Marduk (BNA) owes Eanna 80;0 dates from a field of the Lady of Uruk at the (tp)Great Well (būrtu rabītu) that is at the disposal (ina pāni) of Bēl-īpuš (BI) for 43;0 and one darīku-container. BNA will pay in m.VIII in the measure (mašīḫu) of the Lady of Uruk. 21;2.3 shall be given to BI as share (zittu) of the prebendary gardener (rab bānî) in the enclosure (ḫaṣāru). BI will receive (eṭēru) the allowance (kurummatu) of 23;2.3 from his share, and the allowance from the prebendary income (teškītu) will be paid by Eanna. This is apart from previous debt notes (uʼiltu).
