Transliteration
l ḫṭs¹t bn grmʾl bn ʾnʿm bn fl[ṭ]t bn bhs²
Translation
By Ḫṭs¹t son of Grmʾl son of ʾnʿm son of {Flṭt} son of Bhs²

Interpretation

Commentary
The third letter of the penultimate name is not visible on the photograph but from the occurrence of ʾnʿm bn flṭt bn bhs² in other texts (KRS 282, 324, 887, 1231, 1335, 2184) it seems likely that ṭ should be restored.
