Paraphrase

Arrangements concerning two slaves given to Eanna in lieu of outstanding debts (rēḫu), including the remainder of cattle.

First, Šamaš-iddin/Bunnānu and Iddin-Nabû/Bēl-qalaša guarantee that Ilu-rē’ûa, the slave of Kalbāya/Aḫḫēšāya, will not run away. If he does, ŠI and IN will give 2 shekels of silver [(worth of?) …] to an outpost (kādu) archer. Mutual guarantee.

Second, if Barikī-ili, the slave of ŠI, is seen in their presence, ŠI and IN will give to Eanna 30 […].

Written in the presence of Nabû-mukīn-apli/Nādinu//Dābibī, High Priest (šatammu) of Eanna, and 3 witnesses.

Scribe: Marduk-nāṣir/Madānu-aḫḫē-iddin//Šigûa.
