Translation into English

"Of meat (of talent) to those in the residence, from Ptolemaïs towards the rivers, to be provided for the soldiers, it is necessary that meat and local wine and barley be given to them, and that they be given (in drachmas) for meat, and for the measure of wine (in jars) (in drachmas), since it is necessary for them to be stationed more carefully for the winters. Take care that loaves are not less than a certain amount per day, and that wine is measured not less than a certain amount (in jars), and that they do not fall short in the provisions of wheat."
