Paraphrase

Letter of Nergal-zēru-ibni (City Priest, šangû of Udannu) to Marduk-šākin-šumi (/Bēl-šumu-iškun//Dābibī, High Priest, šatammu), “his father”, about a lack in woven textiles (miḫṣu) for d.igi.du (likely Nergal). He also informs the recipient about one nakmaru-basket for d.igi.du (likely Nergal) being taken and which the recipient may find being with Bēl-šumu-iškun.
