Paraphrase

Letter of Nergal-zēru-ibni (possibly City Priest, šangû, of (tp)Udannu) to Nabû-nādin-šumi (/Bēl-šumu-iškun//Dābibī, High Priest, šatammu), “his father”, about an issue with an amount of silver obtained from Rēḫētu (R) which has been resolved. After a broken passage, he promises to deliver something to the recipient, and to send R and his household (qinnu) to the recipient.
