Paraphrase
Loan of silver: B1, B2 and B3 owe A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 and A6 3 minas of silver. Beginning with the present month, the debt will bear a monthly interest of 5 shekels (33% p.a.). The debtors mutually guarantee for the repayment of the debt (ištēn pūt šanî našû). An additional clause, literally meaning “whoever sees (the debtors), receives the silver”, possibly refers to “joint creditorship”. 5 witnesses and the scribe.
 
A1= Aššur-dannu; A2 = Aya-abū; A3 = Batūl; A4 = Igigi; A5 = Nergalāya; A6 = Damqia; B1= Perˀu; B2 = Šumāya; B3 = Nabû-gāmil; Scribe = Murānu//Egibi
