Paraphrase

A list of outstanding debts owed to the temple, in silver and barley, by Amurru-mukīn-apli/Amurru-šarru-uṣur (AMA), the agricultural supervisor (gugallu) of the Governor of the Sealand (šākin māti):

  • 1192;0 of barley, including interest, the remainder (rēḫtu) of the credit (rašûtu) from year 35-36, is owed (ina muḫḫi) by Nabû-šarru-uṣur, Royal Resident (qīpu) of the Sealand, and AMA. 

  • 19 1/5 shekels of silver, the remainder of a debt note (u’iltu) of 1 mina 20 1/3 shekels of silver, is owed by Nabû-dēni and Marduk-nāṣir, and is guaranteed for (pūt našû) by AMA. 

  • 1 1/3 minas of silver, the purchase price of wool of year 38, is owed by AMA, Balāṭu/Mannu-kī-aḫu, Nabû-zēru-ukīn/Mandamû and Nergal-uballiṭ/Zabdîlu. 

  • 224;0 of barley including interest, that were withdrawn (našû) on 36.XII.24, including 21;3.2 of barley of credit that are owed by Mukīn-Marduk/Nūrānu.

  • ½ mina (of silver), that were brought (našû) via (ina qāt) Sîn-iddin, the Royal Resident (qīpu) in year 37 from (tp)Madāktu. 

  • 2 minas of silver, the purchase price of the house of Nabû-zēru-ibni/Nabû-nāṣir, over which a debt note was issued to Kabtia/Rēmūt-Gula. 

In sum: 1418;0 of barley and 4 minas 9 1/5 shekels of silver are still at the disposal (ina pāni) of AMA.

Note: NCBT 996, which is a debt note over 1 1/3 minas of silver for wool, corresponds to the 3rd entry in this list.
