Paraphrase

More than 600 sheep and goats are put at the disposal (ina pāni) of Nergal-šumu-ibni/Nadnāya. 100 animals are (already?) at his disposal (or: for his own use?). The flock shows the typical ratio: most of the animals are ewes, many female lambs, some rams and male lambs, and a few goats. 

For further attestations for the herdsman (nāqidu) Nergal-šumu-ibni/Nadnāya see Aarslev 2023: 330.
