In English machine translation
[recto]
From the holy church to Paam, farmer. You have paid for the 2nd installment 6 1/2 carats, by exchange (?). Choiak 28, indiction 13.
I, Isaak, administrator, agree.
[verso]
† Paam […]
The carat (keration) was a fraction of the gold solidus used as a money of account. The abbreviation read as synallage probably refers to the exchange rate or conversion applied to the payment; the verso note is partly illegible.
