English Translation

On the nineteenth [day] I received the letters of my good master, which Theodore the shipmaster delivered to me, in which I found a letter written by my master to the most magnificent lady, my mistress. Having received these, I myself delivered them to my most magnificent mistress. And above all, I gave thanks to the Lord God, the master of all, because He has trampled down the enemies...

...and he knows, as I have written previously, of much difficulty... one hundred solidi. And fifty [solidi] of grain, and I am about to receive the completion of the required [amount] of solidi... [and] pulse from the regions of Pauli... to buy barley...

...but the additional grain is hindered until now from being sent, because the measure has not yet been placed...

...for indeed five allies and collectors who were demanded by me have appealed, some saying "we have paid and owe nothing," others saying "we owe nothing except the payment for the month of Pharmouthi"...

...therefore, master, quickly indicate to me the form you command to be given to both parties, so that I may establish them and be able to demand the payment...

...my master will judge me. For I have already told him this very thing, and he said he was unable... [to compel] Menas the collector to render the account because... since you also commanded Peter... the boaster... my master knows the diligence of each one of us.

vestiges

Note: The word vestiges is actually English/French in form; classical/medieval Latin would more typically be vestigia (plural) or vestigium (singular). I am listing it here only because it appears as a non-Greek insertion in the text.

English translation (best-effort, with gaps where the Greek is corrupt/unclear)

On the nineteenth, I received the letters of my good master, which Theodoros the “polykopitēs” (copyist) delivered to me. Among them I found a letter written from my master to the lady, the most magnificent kyria; and having taken these, I delivered them from my own hand to my most magnificent kyria. And before all else I gave thanks to the Lord God, the Lord of all, because he has trampled down the enemies. My good master … also knows, as I wrote at another time, (about) very great difficulty … (in the matter) of one hundred nomismata. And (there are) fifty … of wheat … and since the completion of the nomismata is being demanded, (I am to) receive … a supplier/legume-dealer (?) in the districts of Paul… to buy barley … and (deliver) also of the barley … to my master. But the additional written order concerning the wheat is being hindered from being sent until now, because the stored measure has not been put in. But if my master … and accepting this also … (a quantity) of barley, not only because he will put in the measure from the aforesaid … I will now pay down one hundred nomismata of the installment/payment, which they have deposited/paid. Likewise also those from Telbōthōn refuse to appear and to make their full reply, and to give an account concerning the six nomismata of the “diagraphon” (a written receipt/assessment document). In brief then, master, indicate to me the form/order which you command to be given to both parties, so that I may set them in order (bring them to compliance) and be able to demand the payment. For indeed five allies/assistants and collectors, being demanded from me, have appealed (to me): some saying, “We are paid up and owe nothing,” and others saying that “We owe nothing except the installment for the month Pharmouthi.” And since I have written in various ways, begging my master, (I ask that) he command my companion Theodosios, the most esteemed taboular(i)os (notary/secretary), to be sent to Mē… so that he may confer with each person and give … (And) prepare him to catch up with the tracks of my master. But if he is occupied, command … (As for) Menas, your logographos (account-writer/official) … (so that) my master will judge me (guilty) of negligence. For I already told him this very thing, and he said that he was not able … (and) that Menas the collector could not make the account/report as it is. And since you also ordered Petros … a kompastēs … For my master is not unaware of the diligence of each one of us.
