In English machine translation
To my lord brother Apollinarios, Peteuris, greetings. Without fail give to our brother Haryotes 1 artaba of wheat by the landowner's measure, the one that is with you; and do not neglect this. I pray for your health for many years.
The "landowner's measure" (geouchikon metron) was a measure used on private estates, distinct from the public measure. The text is a payment order written in letter form.
