In English machine translation
Papremithes and Bienchis, collectors of money taxes of Elephantine, through Ammonios, assistant. Patchnaus son of Harpaesis, his mother being Tanouris, has paid for the merismos of year 10 of Antoninus Caesar the lord 4 drachmas, total 4 drachmas. Phaophi.
The merismos was a tax apportioned among taxpayers, with no exact English equivalent. The amount in words and the year number are largely restored, though the numeral 4 survives; the regnal year would fall in AD 146 if Antoninus Pius is meant.
