The elders’ organization (gerousia) honoured Julia Severa, daughter of Gaius, high–priestess and director of contests of the whole household of the Augustan (Sebastoi) gods, because of her virtue and benefaction towards the elders' organization…
ἡ γερουσία ἐτεί̣ǀμησεν ǀ Ἰουλίαν Γαΐου θυǀγατέρα Σεουήǀǀραν, ἀρχιέρειαν κα̣[ὶ] ǀ ἀγωνοθέτιν τοῦ ǀ σ̣ύνπαντος τῶν ǀ [θ]εῶν Σεβαστῶν ǀ [οἴ]κ̣ου, πάσης ἀρεǀǀ[τ]ῆς χάριν καὶ τῆς ǀ [εἰ]ς̣ αὐτὴν̣ εὐεργεǀσί[ας]· ǀ [τὴν ἀνάστασι]ν̣ πο[ιηǀσαμένου — — —]
The building (oikos), which was built by Julia Severa, was renovated by P. Tyrronius Klados, head of the synagogue for life, Lucius son of Lucius, also head of the synagogue, and Popilius Zotikos, leader, from their own resources and from the common deposit. They decorated the walls and ceiling, made the windows secure, and (10) took care of all the rest of the decoration. The synagogue honoured them with a gilded shield because of their virtuous disposition, goodwill, and diligence in relation to the synagogue.
