In English machine translation

Measured into the granary of the metropolis, of the produce of year 13 of Aurelius Antoninus Caesar the lord, Mesore 2, on behalf of Charax, in the name of Panameus, likewise (of) Pamonthes, one (artaba) of wheat, total 1 artaba of wheat. I, Ammonios, have signed.

Charax is a village in the Theban area, and receipts of this type usually come from Thebes; the provenance is not given in the records. The relation of Pamonthes to Panameus ("likewise") is unclear, possibly a father's name or second payer.
