In English machine translation

Dioskoros to Serapion, greetings. I have received from you the rent for the eighth year of Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus Imperator, for Pachon and Pauni and Epeiph and Mesore, and for the ninth year, for the month of Thoth and Phaophi and Hathyr and Choiak and Tybi.

The rent probably concerns a house or lodgings, since enoikion usually means house rent. The covered period runs from about April AD 48 to January AD 49.
