Paraphrase

(f)Sūqaʼītu/Ina-ṣilli-bābi-rabî rents a house plot (bītu) beginning from Cyr. 07.X.01 for an annual rent of 9 shekels of silver. She will pay Eanna one part of the silver in the beginning of the year and the rest (riḫitu) in the middle of the year. She will repair the wall footing and the roof.

The house plot was confiscated (našû) from Innin-aplu-iddin/Ištar-mukīn-[…] and Innin-zēru-iddin/Zērūtu (IZI) to compensate for remainders (rēḫu). He-goats, she-goats and animal hides of Ištar of Uruk were due from them and from IZIʼs (text: their) father Zērūtu.

4 witnesses.

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