Translation

R
1[Gema]riah [son of A]hi[o said to ?????] son of Jathma, s[a]ying: "You gave me silver,
2 [3 shekels, 2 q(uarters)] by the [s]tone(-weight)s of Ptah, silver, 1 sh(ekel) to 10, and will accrue interest from me (at the rate of) silver, 2 hallurs
3 per silver (unit), 1 sh(ekel) per month until the day that I pay it to [you]. And the interest
4 on your silver (3) will be (4) 7 hallurs per month. And the month in which I shall not give you
5 interest, it will become capital and accrue interest. And I shall pay it to you each month
6 from my stipend which they will give me from the treasury, and you shall write me a receipt for all
7 the silver and interest which I will continue to pay you. And if I have not paid you all
8 your silver and its interest by the month of Thoth, year 36, your silver
9 and its interest, which remains on my account, (8) will double (?). (9) It will continue to accrue (interest) on my account month-to-month
10 until the day that I pay it to you.
