the phrase "reading" when citing a sentence

I found a sentence in the document related to the patent as follows:

It seems that the sentence in Paragraph 2 reading "a second reflector comprising [...]"

Is it correct to use the word "reading" to show the cited sentence?
I feel it more suitable to use "stating" or write nothing......
