Paraphrase

List of ration payments (and similar issues of staples): heading written on the upper edge: [barley rations(?)] that are given by/from the temple (ultu bīt ilī nadnatu, nadānu). Entries beginning on the obverse: 30(?) measures (mašīḫu): Bēl-ēṭer/Aplāya; 0;2: Bānia; 0:2: Innin-šumu-uṣur; 1;2.3, his allowance (kurummatu) for month VII: Mušēzib-Bēl, the goldsmith (kutimmu); 1;0.5, the remainder of the bread (akalu) allowance of the jewellers and […] until the end of month […]; 0;1 dates sent (abālu Š) via Šamaš-aḫu-iddin to […] (several lines damaged).

No date, but prosopographical data (for the goldsmith) suggests a dating to roughly the first years of Nabonidus. Zadok, Isimu 20-21, C.5.2.
