Paraphrase
Purchase of wasteland in Dilbat: A purchases from B wasteland (kišubbû) for 2 shekels of silver in pieces (šibirtu). The plot is located in the district (erṣetu) of the Gate of Uraš inside of Dilbat. Its upper side (in the east) borders on another property of the buyer and its lower side (in the west) on the property of C1. Its upper front (in the north) borders on the property of C2 and its lower front (in the south) on the property of C3, son of the buyer. The plot covers an area of 46 square cubits (12.25 m2) and is a passage (mūṣû), a narrow street (sūqu qatnu), with no exit  ( aṣû). 3 witnesses and the scribe. Instead of a seal impression (kunukku), fingernail impression (ṣupru) of the seller. The field (eqlu) belongs to (pāni dagālu) B.
