The text appears fragmentary and incomplete. The abbreviation "ἀρ(άκου)" likely refers to "ἄρακος" (arakos), a type of legume (chickling vetch). The abbreviation "κ̣ρ̣( )" is uncertain, possibly "κριθῆς" (barley) or "κράστεως" (grain or fodder). The symbol "𐅵" and letters "γ´" (gamma with numeral mark) indicate numerical or measurement notation. "ἄρουρα" (aroura) is a unit of land measurement.

| Σεμθεὺς Θεομνήσ[τ]ωι χαίρειν. | “Semtheus to Theomnes[t]os, greetings.” | Standard epistolary opening: “X to Y, greetings (χαίρειν).” The recipient name looks truncated/uncertain: Θεομνήσ[τ]ωι. |
| προοῦ | Unclear. | Possibly a fragment; could be part of a verb or adverbial form, but the context is too broken to translate confidently. |
| ἀρ… άκου… | Unclear; possibly “ar(…)? listen/hear (ἄκουε/ἄκου) …” | The sequence “άκου” resembles ἄκου (“listen!” / “hear!”), but accents/breathings and surrounding letters are fragmentary. |
| … Ἡροτίμου … | “… of Herotimos …” | Ἡροτίμου is a genitive form (“of Herotimos”). |
| ἄρουρα | “arable land; a field” | ἄρουρα commonly means a cultivated field / arable land (often in documentary texts). |
