1. Testimony of what transpired before us, we the witnesses who have signed at the end of this document, thus 
2. it was: in the month of Tammuz of the year 1489 according to the calendar of contracts,
3. in Fustat, under the authority of our lord the great Shemuʾel ha-Nagid, may his name endure forever,
4. we the undersigned made a complete and stringent qinyan from the elder Abū Saʿd al-Ḥarīrī (the silker), (also known as) our master and teacher Ḥalfon the honorable elder,
5. son of our master and teacher Yiṣḥaq the honorable ḥazzan, may his resting place be Eden, with an implement fitting for the performance of a qinyan,
