(No Latin text was extracted from the document.)
From the same village (?)
To whatever part of my body it may happen
So that I may also be held by the remaining present ones, whom I also testified to.
Therefore, I beseech you, O king, do not overlook me,
being wronged and insulted by them, but I honor the wounds and the insult.
Command the general to write to the one in charge to be sent,
if the things through the meeting are true.
For when this happens, I will be
having obtained justice.
Good luck.

...from the same [village(?)...]
...to whichever part of my body it might happen and...[fragmentary]
...so that I was even wounded, being held by the others present, whom I also called as witnesses.
Therefore, I beg you, O king, not to overlook me, who have been wronged and insulted by them, but rather let me receive justice for the blows and the insult.
[Command the] general to write to Epikrates, the overseer, that [an investigation(?)] be sent,
if the things stated in the petition are [indeed true(?)].
For if this happens, I shall have obtained justice.
Farewell.
