In English machine translation

† From Theodosios the Egyptian, donkey-loads 2, two only. In the month of Mesore, 18th, of the 4th indiction †

The abbreviation read as onikai phorai means loads carried by donkey; the goods delivered are not named, though such receipts at Abu Mena often concern wine or other supplies. 'Aigyptios' may mark the man as coming from the Egyptian countryside rather than being a personal epithet.
