Sîn-zēru-ušebši/Rēmūt (SZU) and Ištar-zēru-ibni/Sîn-nādin-šumi (IZI) owe 55(?);0 of da[tes]. It is the impost (imittu) that they must pay as their sūtu-obligation for their feld in (tp)Aššurītu. It is the property (makkūru) of the Lady of Uruk and Nanāya and pertains to the fixed rent (sūtu) due to Šumu-ukīn/Bēl-zēri//Basia the rent farmer (ša muḫḫi sūti) of the Lady of Uruk (who had leased the license to collect rent on behalf of the temple). SZU and IZI will deliver the [dates] in (tp)Aššurītu, in m.VIII using the mašīḫu-measure of the Lady of Uruk. They will stand surety for one another. They will also give standard additional payments.
