Petenoûpis to those in Tebtyn, greetings and be well. Do not grieve over what has happened in the village. For I swear by all the gods and by Soknobtyn, who saved me, that I did not know at that time, but rather at that hour, I was to be given to me by the general. Therefore, since I have given to the general on behalf of your sacred place, that nothing bad may happen, and it has been established for me not to do harm, nor to the village likewise, nor for you to have bad ones among yourselves from now on. For I, being with you, will not suffer any harm. Therefore, I urge you. Be well. (Year) [Phamenoth] 30. v to those in Tebtyn priests.

Petenoupis to the priests in Tebtynis, greetings and good health.
Do not be distressed about what has happened to the village.
For I swear by all the gods and by Soknobtynis who saved me, that indeed at that time I did not know,
but at that very moment I was handed over by the strategos.
Therefore, since I have spoken to the strategos on behalf of your temple, so that no harm may occur,
he has assured me that he will neither harm the village nor you.
From now on, you will have no trouble from them.
For as long as I am with you, you will suffer no harm.
Therefore, I urge you. Farewell. Year ... Phamenoth 29.
