In English machine translation

Measured into the granary of the metropolis, from the produce of year 5 of Antoninus and Verus the lords Augusti. Pauni 16, on behalf of Charax, in the name of Amenrosis son of Psenmonthes, one third (artaba) of wheat, total 1/3 artaba of wheat. A[…], I have signed. Another: Epeiph 9, likewise in the name of the same, one and one eighth (artabas) of wheat, total 1 1/8 artabas of wheat; and in the name of Psenmonthes son of Amenrosis, one half and one third (artaba) of wheat, total 1/2 1/3 artaba of wheat. Ammonios, I have signed.

The HGV title calls this a receipt for the chironaxion (a trade tax), which does not match the wheat deliveries actually recorded. The date of 3 July corresponds to the second entry (Epeiph 9); the first payment fell on Pauni 16.
