In English machine translation

101 To Apion, royal scribe of the Prosopite nome, from Thesieus and Thermouthis, both daughters of Pnepheros son of Phalous, from Thelbonthon Siphtha. We register, in accordance with the orders of Calvisius Statianus, the most illustrious prefect, for the house-by-house census being held under good auspices, what belongs to us in the village: a nubis (?) and open plots of 150 cubits, in which (lives) Thounonsis daughter of Pnepheros, her mother being Theros, aged 54. Year 14 of Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus Armeniacus Medicus Parthicus Germanicus Maximus, Epeiph 25. We, Thesies and Thermouthis, the two of us, register as stated above. I, Didymas son of Psenamounis, wrote on their behalf since they do not know letters. Through Harpok(ration?), column 42.

The word abbreviated as nub(-) is uncertain and may denote a type of building or structure. The numbers 101 at the top and 'column 42' at the end refer to the document's place in an official roll of glued-together declarations.
