Paraphrase
Fragment of a lease of a prebend: fA1 gives prebends for the performance of the duties (ēpišānūtu) to B1 and B2. The details about the leased prebends are lost, but compare with BM72761, BM74504 and BM63824. The lessees guarantee (pūtu našû) for not interrupting (lā baṭlu) the service and punctuality (of the performance of the cult). They will give monthly to fA1 (as far as preserved) 4;2.3 kor (810 l) of dates and two shares (ahu) of vegetables (mašqu) from the prebend of the arranger-of-the-sacrificial-table (mubannûtu). The income from the other prebends (including the prebend of the oil-presser) given to fA1 is not preserved. 3+ witnesses (including Bēl-bullissu/Marudk-rēmanni//Ṣāhit-ginê) and the scribe (name lost).
 
fA1 = fInbāya/Lūṣi-ana-nūri/Šangû-Ištar-Bābili; B1 = Iddināya/Nidintu//Rabâ-ša-Ninurta; B2= Šamaš-kāṣir/Šellibi; Scribe = Nidintu/Bēl-ibni//Gahal
