Translation: Ababa, the attorney of Šalim-Aššur's firm, Ennam-Aššur and Ṣilliya, Ali-ahum's representative, seized us against Iddin-Aššur and the attorney Ababa said to Iddin-Aššur: You have heard the tablet from the City. I collect Šalim-Aššur's silver; also, I brought you a missive from Šalim-Aššur's investors from the month, eponymy of Aššur-malik son of Ali-ahum, stating that you must release 40 talents of good copper that they entrusted to you, and you must not raise claim against Šalim-Aššur's sons. I have received the 40 talents of good copper about which you reached an agreement with Šalim-Aššur's investors, in accordance with their missive dated mont, eponymy Aššur-malik son of Ali-ahum. Do not obstruct me. Indeed, may these men know - listen to the missive from the investors before these witnesses, and do not raise claim against Šalim-Aššur's sons. ... as much as those who settled our case ... I have cleared you with their missive ..." Iddin-Aššur answered the attorney of Šalim-Aššur's firm, Ennam-Aššur and Ṣilliya, Ali-ahum's representative, and Iddin-Aššur said: "... in ... of our case ... guarantors of Ennam-Aššur and Ali-ahum ... The investors of our father Šalim-Aššur who is dead ... a tablet of 40 talents of good copper ... of those who settled our case ... you will clear me with the investors of your father, Šalim-Aššur. The investors of your father are many. You have cleared me with Ikūnpīya, but many investors of your father remain, so clear me with your father's investors, and I shall raise no claim against you in accordance with those who settled our case. Today, not only have you cleared me, but you say: 'You are cleared! Do not raise claim against Šalim-Aššur's sons!' Now, you have raised a complaint against me and you have burdened me with a lot of expenses. Although I have taken nothing for my father's firm, you keep writing to me about lawsuits and expenditure. If any of the investors of your father raises claim, then I too will raise claim against you." The Durhumit colony in plenary session gave us for these proceedings, and we gave our testimony before Aššur's dagger. Witnessed by Ennam-Aššur son of Ahiya, by Puzur-Ištar son of Iddin-Suen, by Ahiya son of Lalum."
