ἔτους ἐν Ὀξυρ̣ύγχων πόλει τῆς Θηβαίδος, ἀγαθῇ τύχῃ.

Translation into English

"In the year in the city of Oxyrhynchus of Thebes, with good fortune.
These things were arranged by me, thinking and considering, from the city of Oxyrhynchus with the lord of the relative Panarous in the street. For as long as I may have the authority of the private individuals, whatever I may wish to carry out concerning them and to arrange and to lead to the annulment of the will, whatever I may accomplish, the lord shall exist.
If I should die in this will, having accomplished nothing, I leave behind heirs, each of whom, if he lives, but if not, the children of this one, whom I may leave behind in whatever way of all that exists.
Of other descendants, whatever bodies together with those from Teruetus and to no one shall it be permitted to violate anything of those arranged by me."
