[recto] In the consulship of Flavii Arbetio and Lollianus, the most illustrious, Phaophi 3. To Flavius Julianus, former logistes, and his sister Sarapias, by the same father Dioskourides, landowners in the Oxyrhynchite nome, each for the half share falling to them, from Aurelius Patereus son of Choous, from the village of Iseion Panga of the 1st pagus. I voluntarily undertake to lease for the current 32nd year only, from the land belonging to you in the area of the same village, west of the hamlet of Patbonthis, from the plot called 'of the Kapsarion', 20 arouras for a crop of hay (?) to be cut, and in place of rent you, the landowners, are to have […] […] [verso] Lease of Patereus from Iseion Panga […]

The 'year 32' is the Oxyrhynchite era count. The term xylamē (here rendered as a hay crop to be cut) is rare and its exact meaning is uncertain.
