Paraphrase

Four measures of barley are placed at the disposal of the bleacher (pūṣāyu) Amīl-Nanaya, son of Nāṣir, for (making) malt (PAB.ŠE for munu4? = PAB.ŠE.PAB; the reading NUMUN = "seed (grain)" is unlikely).

The date, 2.VIII.14, does not name the king. The tablet is from the reign of Nabopolassar or Nebuchadnezzar based on its format.
