Paraphrase
Dialogue document concerning the purchase of a prebend: B1 and B2 approach A with a request to take over the service of the prebend of the baker (nuhatimmūtu) before Nanāya for the 10th of Ṭebēt (X). A grants the request and pays 5/6 mina and 2 shekels of silver for the prebend. The transaction is concluded in the presence of (ina ušuzzi) the governor (šākin ṭēmi) of Uruk (Hinnumu). 2 witnesses and the scribe. Instead of a seal impression (kunukku), fingernail impression (ṣupru) of the two sellers.
 
A = Nabû-ahhē-iddin/ŠU-zēri; B1 = Purussû/Uprāya; B2 = Šumu-uṣur/Kudurru; Scribe = Ahhēšāya/Bēl-usāti
