Paraphrase

Marduk-nāṣir/Nabû-ušallim//Šamšēa (MN) owes Gimillu/Bēl-ibni//Suḫāya (G) 1 mina and 10 shekels of silver, payable in m.XI. If he fails to repay the silver by that time, MN will pay interest at the rate of 1 shekel per mina per month (=20% per year). All the assets (mimmûšu ša āli u ṣēri) of MN are placed as security (maškanu) for the debt. No other creditor (rāšû) will dispose (šalāṭu) of them until G receives his silver in full (šalāmu).

2 witnesses.

Scribe: Nabû-aplu-iddin/Lâbâši//Kidin-Marduk.
