Transliteration
l lb{ʾ} bn ----
Translation
By {Lbʾ} son of ----

Interpretation

Commentary
The stone bears multiple inscriptions, but very few can be read. The third letter of the first name could be a ʿ, ṣ, or ṯ. Given that lbʾ is a well-attested name whereas 'lbṣ' and 'lbt' are unattested, the reading provided is the most likely.
