Paraphrase

Šamaš-erība/Ninurta-aḫu-iddin receives (ina qātē maḫāru) 3š of silver from Arad-Gula/Šamaš-iqīša. It is the ilku-obligation of Zēriya/Mušēzib for Bar. 01-VI to Bar. 02*-VI.

2 witnesses and the scribe Šamaš-erība/Ninurta-aḫu-iddin.

 

Arad-Gula/Šamaš-iqīša: mār šipri of the šandabakku.

Regarding the end date of the ilku-obligation (Bar. 02-VI), this date was never actually reached, since Bardiya died during his first regnal year and therefore never had a second year. Therefore, Bar. 02 would correspond to Dar. 02.
