A list of silver and barley distributed (no verb) to “the previous porters” (zabbilu maḫrūtu): 3;0 of barley, ¾š of silver at the disposal (ina šu?) of Bāniya/Aḫū'a; 1;3, 3/4š, Šamaš-ēreš/Šamaš-zēru-ibni; 1;3, 3/4š, Balāssu/{f}…; 2;3, 3/4š, Ninurta-aḫu-iddin/Ninurta-…; ∅, 1/2š, Ninurta-ana-bītišu/[…]; ∅, 3/4š, Bazuzu/Ku[…]; 2;3, 3/4š, Ḫabaṣiri/[…]; 2;3, 3/4š, Kidinnu, the smith (nappāḫu); 2;3, 3/4š, Gimillu/[…]; ∅, 1š, Nabû-x-x …; 2;3, 3/4 […]; 2;3, 3/4š, Šamaš-ēreš/[...]; 2;3, 3/4š, Zēru-ukīn/Pir'u; ∅, 1/2š, Ninurta-ēreš/Ninurta-kāṣir.
“previous” for maḫrūtu is unclear in the context. The meaning “digging” is given in CAD M1: 112, which may fit the context better. However, the only attestation, Dar 427: 8, should probably red as ma-ṣar!-ru-tu4; see CAD R: 48, sub rabû A 7c.
Note the uncommon syllabic spelling lú.nap-p[a-ḫu] (line 9), rather than the expected SIMUG (cf. VS 3, 176: 2); this is the only (surviving) professional identification in the text.
