Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
ThNSSMAS: l s¹ʿd bn tm w {n}gʿ w ---- ThNSM.I 9: l s¹ʿd bn tm w ngʿ w ws¹m ʿl- mṣrn
Commentary
The letter after the first w is a rather long line and it is possible it should be read as a l as the n's are short dashes. The rock is broken after the third w and the g is not visible. Only part of the m is legible. One end of the r is damaged.
