JaS: read with JaS 101.1: l hbtyr bn bḍm w ḏbḥ f ds²r s¹lm.
Commentary
See JaS 101.1. The position of the letters of this text suggest that it should be read separately. It is possible that the rock is broken before the y or the beginning is written on another face. The second letter of the second name might be an ʿ rather than a ḍ. The b of ḏbḥ is written in the opposite direction to the rest of the text.
