By ʾṣr son of Tm son of Frʾ and he grieved in pain for S¹krn and for {Yḥmʾl} [and by him] is {the carving}
OCIANA
Language and Script
Safaitic

Interpretation

Commentary
The author carved ngʿ ʿ ʿ, presumably as an error for ngʿ ʿl. The loop of the y is damaged and the final letter is covered by an abrasion. The occurrence of h- ḫṭṭ at the end of the text without a connective is unusual.
