Paraphrase
Land rental.
A1 rents (ana sūtu nadānu) arable land to B1 (C’s slave) and B2 for 6 year, at a yearly rental price amounting to 27 Kor (4860 l) of dates. The land's borders are described in detail: the upper long side borders on (the properies of) D and E, the lower one on (the properties of) F’s sons and of D. The land belongs to A and his brothers, and A2 holds a share in it as well. For each kor (180 l.) of dates (of the 27 kors (4860 l) that B1 and B2 have to pay each year), they shall give to A1 und A2 (the customary amounts of) spathes (tuhallu), spadices (gipu), and fibres (mangagu), a load of firewood (ḫuṣabu) and 2 darīku-containers. They will hoe (herû) the ground from the branching off of the canal (ārittu) to […]. Rest of the tablet broken off. Names of 7 witnesses and the scribe.
