The document pertains to the highest and most pious lord of ours, Flavius Justinian, the eternal Augustus and Emperor, in the year of the indiction, after the consulate of Flavius Basilios, the most illustrious, in the city of Oxyrhynchus. To the most admirable Mena, son of the blessed Praoutos, who is attached to the holy Catholic Church of the Oxyrhynchites, Aurelius Phoibammon and Elias, brothers of the same kin, from the father Anoup and the mother Tekrambe and Pantaru, son of Phib, mother of Rachel, the three originating from the estate of Lithinis, of the Oxyrhynchite law differing from the same holy Catholic Church, greetings. We confess willingly and by our own choice, invoking God the Almighty and the piety of the fortunate fortune, to be guaranteed and to be received by your admiration. Aurelius Onnophrius, son of Pamouthius, who became a deacon of the mother Thecla, originating from the same estate and previously remaining with her in the order of freedmen, for which we have prepared to give him to your admiration the remaining gold that was stolen from him in your house a few days ago, and whenever he is sought by us from your admiration on any day for the cause of these matters, we carry and will deliver publicly in this city outside the holy precincts and divine characters and any place of refuge, where we have also received him in the custody of the hospital of this holy church, outside of any word being given to him or to be given, for this only the principal or if we do not do this, we confess to be jointly responsible, we who are the guarantors of this, to be liable to all those seeking him, to respond by laying down in the justice of this guarantee all our possessions and those that exist, specifically and generally, as a pledge by word and lawful obligation. The guarantee is simply written and having been asked, we have confessed. Aurelius Phoibammon and Elias, brothers of the same kin, from the father Anoup and Pantaru, son of Phib, we, the undersigned, have accepted this guarantee, taking on the same Onnophrius for all those previously mentioned in this guarantee, in danger of our and our status, and we agree with everything as is stated and having been asked, we have confessed and released. Apollos, son of Apanakius, having been deemed worthy, I have written on their behalf while they are unlettered.
