Paraphrase

Two water stream-shaped from the table of Nanaya weighing 21 ¾ shekels of gold and 3 ¼ shekels of gold, the leftover amount (tēḫirtu) of a present (tarīndu) for the Lady of Uruk, i.e., altogether 25 shekels of gold are at the disposal (ina pāni) of Bēl-ibni and Ištar-šumu-ibni, for the repair (batqu) of said water stream-shaped ornaments.

These two men can be identified as goldsmiths (kutimmu).
