Paraphrase

Letter order by Sūqāya (temple scribe, ṭupšarru ša Eanna) to Tattannu (T), his brother, ordering him to give 2;0 of dates to Iddin-Bēl/Tabnēa from his allotment for sacrificial commodities and priestly remuneration (maššartu). After the date, the letter urges T to comply quickly (kapdu, ḫarrānu ana šēpē šakānu).
