Translation into English

To Simon, son of Jonathan, from Benaiah and Masabala, greetings. Since I have sent to you, Agrippa, be diligent to send me the thyrsoi and citrons, as much as you are able, for the encampment of the Jews, and do not let it be done otherwise. It was written in Greek because we have not found it written in Hebrew. Release him quickly for the festival, and do not let it be done otherwise. Simon, farewell.
