Interpretation

Commentary
The crossbar of the third letter is not very clear. The word after wgd is on the edge of the rock and difficult to read although the restoration of ʾṯr is likely given the context. The beginning of the following word is obscure and the last letter of the inscription is partly covered by an abrasion.
