Translation into English

Marcus Petronius Mamertinus,
Prefect of Egypt, says:
I have recognized many of the soldiers traveling through the country without a double (escort),
seeking ships and cattle and people from what is appropriate, some of them forcibly taking,
others receiving either as a favor or as a service
(*) from the generals,
from which there arises for the private individuals both insult
(*) and injury, while the military is slandered for greed and injustice.
It has happened that I command the generals and royal officials to simply not provide anyone
(*) without a double escort, nor one of those who are
(*) referred to,
giving neither by sea nor by land, as I will punish anyone who is caught
after this decree taking or giving anything of the aforementioned.
