- Paraphrase
13 and ¾ shekels of silver were given as income (erbu) from the Overseer of the Gate (rab bābi) Nabû-ušēzib for the repair of a well.
Note
The rab bābi might have played a role in the wool industry of Uruk, see on this official Kleber 2008, 249-253. Nabû-ušēzib is also attested with the same title in YOS 6 87.
