In the ninth year of the reign of the Emperor Trajan Hadrian Caesar Augustus, during the consulate of Marcus Valerius Asiaticus and Titus Aquilinus, before the four days of the month of October, according to the number of the province of Arabia, in the twentieth year of the month called Hyperberetaios, on the fourth and twentieth day, in Ma'ozah concerning Zoar, upon the appointed witnesses, Babatha, daughter of Simon of Manahem, testified against John, Joseph of Eglah, and Abdoabda, the guardians of Jesus, Jesus' son, her orphan, who were appointed to the same orphan by the council of the Petraians, while the same guardians were present, saying: "Because you have not given to my son, the orphan, provisions according to the interest of his silver and the other possessions of his, and especially for the maintenance which I have provided for him, and not to grant him interest on the silver unless it be a trophy of one hundred denarii, having possessions of this silver which you have of the orphan, therefore I have testified beforehand that if it seems good to you to give me the silver for the security concerning the mortgage of my possessions, granting interest on the silver as one hundred denarii, one and a half, that my son may be splendidly preserved, thanking the most blessed times of the governance of Julius Julianus, the governor, concerning the disobedience of the provisions, I have commanded Babatha to John, the one who is registered, one of the guardians of the orphan. If not, this testimony shall be for the right of profit of the silver of the orphan.
