Paraphrase

(f)Abu-ul-tīde ((f)AUT) tells Nabû-mukīn-apli/Nādinu//Dābibī (NMA), High Priest (šatammu) of Eanna, Nabû-aḫu-iddin (NAI), Royal Overseer (ša rēš šarri bēl piqitti) of Eanna, that she is the slave of Lā-qīpu/Abia-adi[…] (LQ), herdsman (nāqidu), who owes outstanding dues (rēḫu) to the Lady of Uruk. But Bēl-lēʼi (BL), deputy simmagir-official (šanû ša simmagir) has sent a message (šipirtu) to NMA and NAI that states that she belongs to him. Now, NMA and NAI give (f)AUT to Iddin-Nabû/Rēmūtu, messenger (mār šipri) of BL, who shall take and hand her over to BL. NMA and NAI promise to look in to the dispute (dīnu) between them (= LQ and BL), and that they will reach a decision (purussû) about her together with BL.

4 witnesses.

Scribe: Arad-Marduk/Marduk-šumu-iddin//Bēl-aplu-uṣur.
