- Translation
- By Ġyrʾl son of {s¹wd} son of Rṯʾl son of Bhm son of Nẓr son of Gḏly son of {ʿbd} son of Whbn son of Qmr and he was hungry and cold and so O Lt [grant] relief from adversity and uncertainty
Interpretation
- Commentary
- There is a short cross stroke over the corner of the second letter of the second name but it is probably an embellishment of an ʿ rather than the cross stroke of a w. The d of the seventh name is damaged. The w of whbn has been embellished with an additional stroke.
