Paraphrase

Letter of Nidintu (/Dummuqu) (N) (overseer of fifty, rab ḫanšē) to Nādinu (/Bēl-aḫḫē-iqīša//Egibi) (temple scribe, ṭupšarru ša Eanna), his lord, about 37 men being sent to (tp)Ḫumadēšu who need travel rations and equipment. The allowances (kurummatu) for them should be deduced from (the accounts of) Nanaya-iddin (/Nabû-[x]) (NI) and Šumu-ibni (/Ina-têši-ēṭir) (ŠI). N also asks the recipient to give 1 mina of silver to Gimillu (maybe /Nūnānu) for Šumu-ukīn, Nabû-iqbi, NI and ŠI. and to send 100;0 of barley.
