Translation into English

Paniskos, son of Chairemon, having become a royal secretary,
to Sarapion of Thebes, greetings to the royal secretary of the same law.
I agree, if the calculation occurs in the tenth year concerning the ninth (year)
of Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus.
The emperor himself depends on the accounts and the order of his own word in books and in the underlying records
for the calculation; but if it does not happen in the tenth year, let each of us return the record of what each has remained in the order.
(In the year) of the tenth of Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus,
in the month of Phamenoth.
15.
