In English machine translation

† Aurelius Iakob, Neophotipos (?), son of Abraamios, from the city of the Oxyrhynchites, to you Victor, servant (?), son of Apphouananes (?), from the same city. I have received from you […] […]

The word after Iakob's name (Neophotipos) is obscure; it may be an epithet or a garbled word, perhaps related to 'newly baptized'. The word 'paidi' may describe Victor as a servant or simply a young man, and his father's name is uncertain in form.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Quittung). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
