Paraphrase
Purchase of a field: A purchases from B 1/6 share of hanšû-land belonging to C for 21 shekels of silver. The sold land is located in the city of Šaṭirtu and its upper front borders on the bank (kišadu) of the Euphrates. It measures 290 square reeds (72.33 m2).  The buyer A already has another share (pūt zitti) of the same land at his disposal. 7 witnesses and the scribe. Instead of a seal impression (kunukku), fingernail impression (ṣupru) of the seller.
 
A = Marduk-zēru-ibni//Nūr-Sîn; B = Bēl-iqīša//Egibi; C = Nabû-iqīša; Scribe = Marduk-ušallim//Egibi
