b.e. 13b.e. 13	ša e-gér-tú	(b.e. 13) That I have not written you a letter is the fault of Sākip-Aššūr. He came (and) said to me, "My father's wife (i.e. my stepmother) hates me!" Šamaš-ēreš brought Kubaba-ēreš into the lawsuit. The woman before him – they are suing (her) from me. That is why I wrote you these words (only now).

1Radner 1999, 172: In den drei Zeilen am linken Tafelrand wird das Thema gewechselt. Sie scheinen "dienstlich" zu sein und sich mit zwei Themen aus dem Betätigungsfeld der Goldschmiede zu befassen. Erneut definiert Nabû-mušeṣi nicht genau, wer die handelnden Personen eigentlich sind. Vielleicht sind "sie" die angehörigen der Goldschniedezunft.
