- ---- [b]n ʿḏr h- bkr w h rḍw ġnm [] {h-} s¹{n}t w ʿwr m ʿwr
- Translation
- By ---- {son of} ʿḏr is the young camel and O Rḍw [grant] booty this year and blind whoever scratches out [the inscription]
Interpretation
- Commentary
- The rock is broken and the beginning of the inscription, and possibly part of the drawing, are missing. There is a line after the word ġnm which might be extraneous or intended to be a l. The following letter has a third prong which is probably incidental and the following n is rather longer than the other examples of the letter.
