Nabû-aḫḫē-šullim/Balāṭu (NAŠ) owes 200;0 of barley. It is the impost (imittu) that he has to pay as his rental payment (sūtu) in the irrigated farmland (tamirtu) of (tp)Bīt-Nabû-[...] and 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). NAŠ will deliver the barley in [m.x] using the mašīḫu-measure of the Lady of Uruk. This is apart (elat) from the previous debt notes charged against him.
3 witnesses and the scribe Balāṭu/Mušēzib-Bēl
