Paraphrase

More than 400 sheep and goats are put at the disposal (ina pāni) of Iddin-Uraš/Arrabu. Some 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.

A part of the text was prewritten. The entry for female kids contains no number, and the name and patronym of the herdsman is followed by a filiation marker and a blank space.

The number of the year might alternatively be 19.
