By ʾʾs¹d son of S²ʿ son of Ḥg son of S¹wd and he fed the goats on dry fodder the year of misery because Bʿls¹mn withheld it (i.e. the rain); but may he preserve (it) thereafter (lit. after it); and may he who would read [the inscription] aloud have spoil but may he who would efface this writing go blind.

- Commentary
- SG 1, 2 and 3 are incised and are enclosed in a scratched cartouche, while SG 4 is chiselled and runs along the ridge between two faces just outside the cartouche. After s¹nt the letters bḫ have been lightly scratched over.
