An order issued in the name of the dux Flavius Atias through his notary Menas, instructing Senouthios son of Dioskoros to sow 3 arouras of land on behalf of Kouei son of Apollos.

In English machine translation

† Flavius Atias, with God's help dux, through Menas, notary, to you, Senouthios son of Dioskoros, on behalf of Kouei son of Apollos: the plots that must be sown by you for the crops of the […] indiction are: (land of) Zacharias son of Psatios, 3 arouras only, of the kleros of Psanakelel, 3 arouras. Total for Kouei son of Apollos: 3 arouras, three.

A kleros was a named land allotment. The indiction year is lost, and the plural 'to you' alongside the singular 'by you' reflects the formula of such sowing orders.
