Paraphrase

Šamaš-šumu-ukīn/Nabû-zēru-ukīn//Maḫḫû (ŠŠU) owes (muḫḫu) 1 mina (and) 5 shekels (of) silver to Iddināya/Nabû-šumu-iddin//Iddin-Papsukkal (I).

In m. VIII of year 11, in exchange (kūm) for the missing (miṭītu) bricks (agurru) of the king, for which the silver of year 11 had been given (nadānu) to the Urukeans and for which ŠŠU did not carry out the brickwork, the silver was given to Aḫu-ittabši/Rēmūtu, the deputy governor (šanû) of (tp)Uruk, on behalf of ŠŠU and his brothers.

The house of ŠŠU at the (tp)Gate of Wellbeing (bāb salīmi) of Uruk and all his possessions in the city (ālu) and the steppe (ṣēru) is the pledge (maškānu) until I will be paid (šalāmu).

5 witnesses.

Scribe: Ištar-šumu-ēreš/Aplāya//Kurī.
