Interpretation

Commentary
There is a short line after the ḏ but it is lighter and inscribed with a thinner point than the rest of the text and is probably extraneous. The n of the following bn is a long line attached to the arm of the b, see the second bn in KRS 1278 which is inscribed in a similar way. There is a line across one fork of the ʾ giving it the form of a ṣ.
