- Paraphrase
3 1/4 shekels of silver are the purchase price (šīmu) of a sick ox sold (abāku) by Arad-aḫḫēšu, the farmer (ikkaru). It is at the disposal (ina pāni) of Gimillu/Zēria. In m.XII, Ina-Esagil-zēru/Ša-pî-Bēl(//Amīl-Ea) and Ištar-šumu-uṣur/Mār-Bēl-danu will pay it.
Note:
Ina-Esagil-zēru/Ša-pî-Bēl//Amīl-Ea is attested in YOS 6 71, 72, 116 and is maybe the father of one individual mentioned in YOS 7 18.
