Translation into English

Of our loaves sent (measures) and of other loaves of bronze (drachmas) and also of other (measures) which they have thrown to us for the purpose of providing for us, of which the wage (drachmas) and of the crumbs the value (measures) (drachmas) (are made) (drachmas) so that there may be of the wheat sent (measures) of which the wage is what is made (measures) and until this point neither the grain has been given to us nor has it been equal as it is. And also further, to the measure of the kappa, they have sailed to the measure of the kappa, and now without reason you have called upon us so that through you we may also provide the written things. For when this has happened, we will be able to provide for your needs in the present.
