Interpretation

Commentary
One loop of the ṯ is not entirely certain. There are abrasions over the last part of the inscription. There might be another w and a further letter between the w and the s² and there is space for another letter after the s². One prong of the ʾ is unclear and it is possible that the letter should be read as either a h or a ṣ.
