Translation quoted from G. Ruffini, The Bishop, The Eparch and The King: Old Nubian Texts from Qasr Ibrim IV (P.QI 4) [= JJP Supplements], Warsaw 2014 with permission from the editors of the JJP.
The Archangel Michael.
Papasa the priest to Ngapre, son of Soukk(ousapa).
I greet you. I am selling the linen garment, and for two months I will hand it over through you. What is it? What? Coming, I came out. And even though I can, I will not give the garment’s price to my foundation (?). So you, having brought it for the two months of Choiak, took the gold from me. Sending it, you will get rid of that gold, through the power of the eparch. And I want for you to not give from it to you and to my foundation. Insisting on it, I came, because giving it to yourself, you will continue to take from me (?). Since I give it, if you do not give it in fulness, the eparch will give one gold piece in the manner of a share.
