[ -ca.?- ] χρυσ(?)]ίνου καταβάλλουσιν ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν. ἐπὰν δὲ [ -ca.?- ] καταλαμβάνω φέρων φανερὸν χρυσίον [ -ca.?- ] εἰς χεῖρας μὴ καταβεβληκέναι. περὶ δὲ τῶν δεσποτικῶν [ -ca.?- ] ὥστε πινακίου [ -ca.?- ] Πτολεμαίου τοῦ βοηθοῦ [ -ca.?- ] θέντι ἀπὸ Σέφθα. διαλύσεως γενομένης πρὸς τοὺς [πέντ(?)]ε χρύσινα. ἐπηγγέλλετο γὰρ ὁ κύριός μου Καλέσιος πέμψαι μοι [ -ca.?- ] διαλυομένους πρὸς τοὺς ἀπὸ Νώεως ἐπὶ τούτοις τοῖς [ὅροις -ca.?- ] μενον τῶν ἀπὸ Σέφθα καὶ Νώεως ἐπικαταλαμβάνω ἀναδιδάσκων [ἀπὸ -ca.?- ] Νώεως. περὶ δὲ Πέτρου τοῦ ἀπαιτητοῦ, κατὰ τὸ ἔθος δεδώκασιν αὐτῷ [ -ca.?- ] τοὺς καὶ ὀφείλοντας καταβαλεῖν ὑπὲρ τόκων καὶ οὐκ ἠνέσχετο [θέλησ(?)]ον δὲ γράψαι αὐτῷ, ὥστε κατὰ τὸ ἔθος ἀπαιτῆσαι, ὥστε μετὰ χειραγωγίας [ἐὰν(?)] δὲ μὴ μετὰ χειραγωγίας γένηται τοῦτο, οὐκ εὑρίσκωμεν ἐν ἀπόρῳ τόκῳ [ -ca.?- ] τοῦ δημοσίου ποιουμένους.
[ -ca.?- ] they pay gold(?) on their behalf. But whenever [ -ca.?- ] I seize, bringing visible gold [ -ca.?- ] not having paid into hands. Concerning the master's affairs [ -ca.?- ] so that a tablet(?) [ -ca.?- ] of Ptolemaios the assistant [ -ca.?- ] placed from Sephtha. After a settlement was made with the [five(?)] gold pieces, for my master Kalesios promised to send me [ -ca.?- ] those settling with the people from Noe on these [terms -ca.?- ] remaining from those from Sephtha and Noe, I seize again, instructing [from -ca.?- ] Noe. Concerning Petros the collector, according to custom they have given him [ -ca.?- ] those who owe to pay interest, and he did not tolerate it. [I wish(?)] therefore to write to him, so that he demands according to custom, so that it happens with a guarantee (or escort). [If(?)] this does not happen with a guarantee, we will not find ourselves in difficult interest [ -ca.?- ] making it public (or belonging to the public treasury).
