In English machine translation

The Aurelii Gemellion and Pasigenes, through me, Isidoros, to Aurelius Isidoros son of Ptolemaios, farmer, greeting. We have received from you the rent and the share of the produce yielded from the arouras of ours which you farmed in the boundary district of Karanis, in the place called Pammares, for the past years up to the elapsed 18th year and 6th year and 4th year and 2nd year, in full, and having been asked the formal question we have acknowledged it. In the consulship of our masters Galerius Valerius Maximianus Augustus for the 8th time and Galerius Valerius Maximinus Augustus for the 2nd time, Mecheir 29. I, Isidoros, wrote the whole.

The four regnal years listed (18th, 6th, 4th, 2nd) reflect the concurrent reckonings of the several emperors ruling together, so they likely refer to one and the same year rather than four separate years. The farmer is the well-known Aurelius Isidoros of Karanis, whose archive this text belongs to.
