Translation: To Šu-Tammuzī, Elaya, Adida, Lamassī and Ennam-Aššur from Ennam-Aššur and Ali-ahum:In Durhumit our father's investors have seized 40 talents of washed copper, assets that our father left; they also detain us. We said: Apart from this copper our father left no other assets. Have the copper converted to silver and let the silver go to the City, and then let goods be transported from the City so you may be paid in full in silver."... the men make trouble ... Not only do they hold the 40 talents of copper, our father's assets, but they say: "Let us also take away the lapis lazuli, your father's votive offering." Our dear fathers and lords, the men are ready to remove the lapis lazuli, our father's votive offering from us. Take care to confront the City and act so that the votive offerings for Aššur are not lost, get a tablet from the City stating that the lapis lazuli must be converted to silver and until the votive offerings are brought in ... Also, hire an attorney and have him leave together with Aluwa and save our lives. For these votive offerings our father died."
