Paraphrase

Ḫagazu/Šamaš-natan owes Anu-aḫu-uṣur/Bēl-ēreš 16.5 shekels of silver. 1 shekel of interest will accrue monthly per each mina.

3 witnesses.

Scribe: Balaṭ[…]/[…]

 

Alternative readings of the debtor’s name are Ḫaggai (m.ḫa-ga-˹ia˺) and Ḫagga-Bēl (m.ḫa-ga-˹d.en˺). Zadok 2019, 204 proposes locating Bāb-Mekīri between Uruk and Nippur, hence the tablet may originate from either city.
