Paraphrase

Lease of a prebend: The prebend (isqu) of the cauldron stokers (šārip ruqqūtu), that the High Priest (šatammu) is entitled to (akālu), is at the disposal (ina pāni) of Ištar-rēṣûa, a dependant of Nabû-nāṣir, for 33 shekels of silver per year. 

33 shekels of silver (for the current) year, with 1/6 of alloy per shekel, were paid (nadānu) to Sîn-iddin, the Royal Resident (qīpu) of Eanna.

2 witnesses are listed. The scribe is Nabû-mušētiq-uddî/Balāssu, in Uruk. 

After the date: This is without the monthly 0;2.3 of dates, which are a gift. (The prebend) has been at his disposal since VII.06.
