In English machine translation

[…] […] […] of the Cretan quarter, and I swear by Imperator Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus Pius that the above written statements are true. Year 11 of Imperator Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus Pius, Pharmouthi 10. I, Dionys[ios(?)], exegetes, have signed. I, Aelius Diog[enes(?)], gymnasiarch, have signed.

The beginning, which held the content of the declaration, is lost. The exegetes and gymnasiarch were municipal magistrates whose signatures suggest a matter concerning civic or gymnasial status.
