Paraphrase

List of sheep and goats of Apkallu/Arad-[...], (given) to Summu-ili (SI), slave (qallu) of Nabû-nāṣir, (for 20 head Ṭāb-Uruk is his witness, for 3 head, slaughtered in SI’s house, his shepherd Bēl-uballiṭ is his witness); to Šumāya/Kaṣitāya (20 head, Bēl-lēʼi/Aḫḫēa is his witness); as a compensation for stolen property (ana kūm sarti) to the rab qanâte-official (20 head, Ša-Nabû-šū/Bābilāya is his witness); to the chief of the prison (rab bīt kīli) of the inner city (7 head, his shepherd Bēl-uballiṭ is his witness); to Ša-Nabû-šū/Iqīšāya (10 head); to Iqīšāya, shepherd of Nabû-natan (5 head). Ibāya, shepherd of Nabû-šumu-ukīn, is listed after 2 blank lines.

The text is not dated, but probably nB due to the use of u8.udu.ḫi.a (instead of ṣēnu), cf. Aarslev: 2023 82. For the rab qanâte-official see Sandowicz 2018 (WZKM 108).
