Paraphrase Receipt of silver: A1 receives from B 2 minas and 29 shekels of silver, share (zittu) of A2, and 1 mina of silver out of 17 minas and 22 shekels (either this should be rather 52 shekels of silver or the subtotals are incorrect) which are due from B because he illegally seized property (ṣibtētu) of A2. The payment of silver replaces physical punishment: 16 5/6 minas of silver instead (kūm) of cutting off (batāqu) B’s hand (rittu) and 1 mina and 2 shekels of silver instead of 21 beatings (mihṣu). A1 will give proof that he fully received (mahāru eṭēru) the money and guarantees (pūtu našû) that his brother A2 won’t litigate (dabābu). This is apart from (elat) the previous document (šaṭāru) concerning 3(+) minas and [x] shekels of silver, share of A1, paid by B. It is also apart from the 8 shekels of silver paid in the previous tablet. 26 witnesses and the scribe.
