In English machine translation

[...] [...] of Isidoros and Kopreus, the public dues and assessments of every kind on the land for the same years being my responsibility, Olympios. The receipt is valid, and having been asked the formal question I gave my assent. Year 20 and year 12 of our lords Diocletian and Maximian Augusti and Constantius and Maximian the most illustrious Caesars, Mesore 19. I, Olympios son of Herakleios, have been paid the rent as stated above.

The opening of the document is lost, so the payer's identity and the amount of rent are not preserved. The landlord (Olympios) undertakes the public taxes on the land, a common clause in leases and rent receipts.
