Paraphrase

20 sheep and goats of Eanna were (registered as) seized (ṣabātu) in payment of the remainder (rēḫu) from the 8th year owed by Nabû-killanni/Nabû-erība (NK). The flock includes ewes, male kalūmu-lambs, female lambs, she-goats, and male and female kids. In m.IX, NK will bring the animals and brand them (šamātu) in Eanna. Otherwise, the animals that are born will add to his debt, proportionally to (the expected offsprings of) the animals that have been (registered as) seized. 

2 witnesses.

Scribe: Ibni-Ištar/Rēmūtu.
