Paraphrase
Administrative document concerning a royal land grant: 91 officials in charge of hanšû-land (rab hanšê) each receive 150 of x-measure land from the king. The granted land reaches from the bank of the Canal of Marduk-apla-iddina as far as the border of Bīt-Zu-gunabu. It is determined that 1,100 of x-measure “of the temple” equal to 1,000 of x-measure “of the king.” Note that the measurement unit is never given along with the numbers.
