Translation: To the envoys of the City and the plenary assembly of the Kanesh colony; from Šalim-Aššur: My dear lords, the scribe of the Burušhaddum colony, Ibaya's son, and a servant of Ušinalam brought a tablet from the plenary assembly of the Burušhaddum colony and a tablet from Ušinalam to the plenary assembly of the Kanesh colony concerning the slave Abu-šalim, and they said: The slave Abu-šalim owes 16, 040 minas of copper, the price of wool, to Ušinalam. As to the 30, 000 minas of copper from the others that they owe to the palace, he has angered Ušinalam." They continued: "Abu-šalim must come. If Abu-šalim is absent, then his master must come. Here we fear for our lives and Abu-šalim's silver." All of the envoys from the City and the plenary assembly of the Kanesh colony heard this and you said: "You must go and satisfy Ušinalam." You handed me over to Ilī-bāni, huraṣānum, the scribe of the Burušhaddum colony and Ušinalam's servant together with my merchandise that had arrived from the City, and you said: "Go! Satisfy Ušinalam!" After I had paid 15, 000 minas of copper as the price of the wool to Ušinalam and satisfied him, he returned and handed me over to the palace officials for 40 minas of silver to cover the same Abu-šalim's debt. I said: "It is you I have already satisfied, so the -documents are mine, or they are part of my goods and he has sold (them). Take the -documents you gave me and sell them where you wish. Why do you hand me over to your ?" He answered: "I will not take your -documents, but you must pay 40 minas of silver to the ." I said this to Ušinalam before your envoys and the plenary assembly of the Burušhaddum colony, but he refused. My dear lords, ... the tablet [from the Burušhaddum colony] and the tablet from Ušinalam that Ibaya's son and Ušinalam's servant brought, that the envoys from the City and the plenary assembly of the Kanesh colony heard, and on the basis of which tablets they led me away and I satisfied Ušinalam - both those two earlier tablets which the envoys of the City and the plenary assembly of the Kanesh colony heard and which have been entrusted (for safe-keeping), plus the tablet, a missive from the plenary assembly of the Burušhaddum colony, that Ilī-bāni and huraṣānum bring to the plenary assembly of the Kanesh colony - those three tablets you must seal for Buziya, the envoy from the City, and entrust them so that he brings them to the City. If Buziya has left, then entrust them to a reliable affiliated trader. You gave me a tablet, saying: "Go and confirm the witnesses, so either in the Kanesh colony or in the Burušhaddum colony ... the price of the wool of Ušinalam...."
