In English machine translation

To Apynchis and Satorneilos, laographoi of Tebtynis, from Heraeis daughter of Protas son of Orseus, with her guardian, her son Kronion. There belong to me in the village two houses and two courtyards adjoining one another and other appurtenances, in which I register myself for the house-by-house census of the past 9th year of Antoninus Caesar the lord. I am Heraeis, the aforementioned, aged 40, and the children born to me from my divorced husband Herakles son of Kronion son of Amais: Kronion aged 21, and Protas about 19, and Achillis about 15; and Kronion's wife Serapias, fatherless, her mother being Thermion, aged 18; and Heraeis' mother Apia also called Didyme, daughter of Lysimachos son of Eutyches, aged 70. Achillis owns a house and courtyard, and Heraeis a sixth share of a house and a courtyard and a slave Lampros about 5 years old, all in the village. I, Heraeis, with my guardian, my son Kronion, have submitted this as stated above. Year 10 of Antoninus Caesar the lord, […] 28.

Laographoi were village officials responsible for the poll-tax register and the census. The month name in the date is lost; only the day 28 survives.
