l s¹ny bn ʾṣr b{n} grmʾ{l}
Translation
By S¹ny son of ʾṣr {son of} {Grmʾl}

Interpretation

Commentary
The n of the second bn is a long line going through the end of the curve of the b and it seems most likely that the author's hand slipped when incising the letter. The second ʾ is written on the edge of the rock and the next face was not photographed. However, traces of a l are just visible on the photograph.
