Julius Hermonax,
(from) Bienchis,
(son of) Psansnōs,
I have received the harbor dues from Thoth up to Choiak 30 of the 12th year of Trajan Caesar, the lord.

Bienchis and Psansnōs are proper names, likely Egyptian in origin.
Thoth and Choiak are months in the ancient Egyptian calendar.
Trajan Caesar refers to the Roman Emperor Trajan (98–117 AD).
The term ἐνόρμια (enormia) refers to harbor or anchorage dues.
