In English machine translation
To my lord brother Sabinus, Petechon, greetings.
Give to Papnouthes four matia of wheat, total 4 matia.
I, Petechon, have signed, 4th indiction.
The mation is a small dry measure, a fraction of an artaba. "Brother" here is a courtesy form of address and need not mean a blood relative.
